Sommer is going to make a giant change
in her life. She has decided to start her own catering
company, and has refused all help from her family and
friends. She wants to do this all on her own and to make
sure of that she won’t even take jobs from her families
firm; which would have guaranteed instant success. Prior to
opening she goes with her best friend to a psychic reading
and the Ace of Pentacles is the tarot card that comes up.
While Sommer does not believe in what the cards are saying,
her friend does. She decides to take the advice of her
friend and begins looking for a potential lover. Too bad
there is only one man that she would ever consider for that
role, Caleb. But, Caleb is a love ’em and leave ’em type of
a guy and has been her confident and friend for years. Too
bad he has also been the man who has held the starring role
in all of her nighttime dreams, the son of her Godfather and
in some ways a big brother.
Caleb has wanted Sommer for years but
has bided his time until he feels that she is ready to
accept him. This is one large hurdle for him to overcome as
he is the “Alpha in waiting” and she is human. As the
adopted daughter of the pack Beta she knows what Caleb is,
will she accept that he is in love with her? More
importantly will she let him take on the role of her “lover”
for a lifetime, no matter what the pack thinks?
Caleb’s Woman is a wonderful story about love,
adoption, acceptance and determination, all rolled into one
fast paced erotic offering. I liked how Ms. Vaughn gave us
a bit of the background as to how Sommer came to be living
among the Wulfen, or as some may joke, raised by wolves. I
also thought she did the story justice by not making the
characters go after each other when they were younger, but
to let them both mature to know what they want. I
thoroughly enjoyed the lessons that Ms. Vaughn wove into the
story about how over protective parents can sometimes seem
suffocating. I think Caleb’s Woman is a solid
addition to the Torrid Tarot series. |
