True Claim: The Sigma Menace Book 3, Marie Johnston

Bennett Young lost his mate over a century ago and he's resigned to his fate of going feral and being terminated by his brother Guardians.  Except fate has something very different up her sleeve.  Defying all lore and expectations he's found a second mate.  If only she'd come clean with all she's hiding so he can protect her and trust her as he couldn't with his first mate.

Spencer is struggling with her life on the run.  She wants nothing more than to settle down with her hobby farm, her dog, and her cows.  There's no room in her life for a wickedly handsome Guardian bent on protecting her and making her life more complicated than it already is.

Their run-ins are humorous as much as they are filled with tension.  When they finally come together things are hot and there's a thread of healing there too.  Bennett, through Spencer's fiery nature and perspective, finally comes to terms with his past and is able to move beyond the hurt, betrayal, and pride that has kept him from feeling worthy of his place in the Guardians.  Spencer, through Bennett's persistence and devotion, finds a freedom she never thought she'd experience in her life on the run and the roots she so desperately wants to plant might just have a place with her mate.

Madame G is looking for someone and believes Spencer is it.  She's determined to eliminate her and Bennett is just as determined to protect her.  Spencer is more than she appears and her secrets are colossal and could change everything they know about their races.

What Madame G's motivation for finding and killing her is unknown and everyone's in the dark about it from beginning to end but what we get in this story is a pivotal set-up for something huge for both sides of their war.

I really enjoyed Bennett's story of his redemption and healing as well as seeing him paired with the feisty, direct Spencer.  They make excellent partners for one another.  The overall plot is continuing at a feverish pace with information stalls timed well to provide anticipation and heightened interest in reading each subsequent book.  I'm really looking forward to Agent E's story in Lawful Claim, to see someone on the "other" side to give us a clearer picture of what it's like on the Sigma side of the line and what it's like to ride the edge of it.
