Overall Rating: 4.5 Rockin’ ★★★★☆
Enhanced is book 12 in Evangeline Anderson's series, Brides of the Kindred. This is one of my favorite Sci-fi romance series. I was immediately grabbed by the storyline and read with great determination to get to the end. I couldn't stop until I was finished. The characters were well developed, with great details and the plot was formed flawlessly. Continuing on with the Brides of the Kindred, summoning of brides, the story took root on earth, then moved to a different world. It was mystical and fantastical through every twist and turn.
Six is a Dark Kindred from Zeaga Four and has been "enhanced" with machines all over his body. Now #6 in the collective, he is a scary to all he meets. Even though he has an emotion damper, the moment he starts dreaming of a woman, his bride, emotions begin to stir in him that he can't quite understand! Given his duty as Kindred, he must go and find this woman that is haunting his dreams and take her as his bride. However, not being able to fully understand the extent of what is expected, he will go through the motions and then return her to her home.
Mei-Li is a social worker whose dad is Senator Hastings of Earth's World Council. She works hard at her job and has a single life existence. Then when the dreams begin, she is caught off guard by the big brooding Dark Kindred with the red mechanical eye. Having been told he will never come to claim her, Mei-Lei continues on with her everyday life. However, imagine her surprise when out of the blue, a tall dark and handsome Kindred shows up to her rescue!
Will Mei-Li break through the barriers of the emotions that Six cannot bear? Can Six trust in love to get him through his buried memories? Will they finish the Claiming period? Read this book to find out. You won't be disappointed!
