” Part of a small demon lair in Las Vegas, tattooist Harper Wallis lives a pretty simple life. That changes overnight when she discovers that her psychic mate, or ‘anchor’, is a guy who’s rumoured to be the most powerful demon in existence. Compelling, full of secrets and armed with raw sexuality, Knox Thorne is determined to claim her as his anchor, creating a psychic bond that will prevent their inner demons from ever turning rogue.
The billionaire also wants Harper in his bed.
She’s not so sure she wants either of those things. No one seems to know what breed of demon Knox is, only that he’s more dangerous than anything she’s ever before encountered. But he refuses to walk away. And when an unknown danger starts closing in on Harper, it seems that Knox is the only one who can keep her safe.
As Prime of his Las Vegas lair and a successful businessman, Knox Thorne is used to being in control. He’s also used to people fearing and obeying him. Harper does neither, which unexpectedly amuses him. Unpredictable, elusive and complex, she draws Knox and his inner demon like nothing ever has.
Knox is used to getting what he wants, and he wants Harper. He’ll have her, and he’ll keep her safe from the threat that looms over her. Because Knox protects what’s his. He won’t allow anyone to take her from him. Even if it will mean letting the demon inside him rise and wreak the havoc it was created to make. “

Left to my own devices, I most likely would not have stumbled on this book, or author, on my own. Luckily, a friend suggested this book to me, and although I was apprehensive, I’m glad I dove in anyways!
I found the concept of an “anchor” so refreshing in a para-romance series. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my fated mates, that being said I love new ideas and concepts in a genre I’ve so heavily read in.
The idea of a soulmate, one person who cares for you, want to protect you, and ensure you have a good life but doesn’t necessarily have romantic feelings for you. Though this book does have an anchor relationship that does include romance, I love that the overall concept doesn’t require or demand it.
I love the strong female, who doesn’t take crap from anyone, meets the “alpha-hole” who isn’t used to not getting his way, trope. The banter between the two did not disappoint. I can’t wait to explore more of this universe!
