Blurb:
Their
existence was a secret the government stumbled upon. In exchange for continued
autonomy, the paranormals entered an alliance with the government. Now they are
A.L.F.A.: Alpha League Federal Agency, sworn to protect and serve humanity.
Brilliant
scientist Melinda Caster has discovered a new strain of the Zika virus that
stimulates synaptic growth in embryos, causing neuron development beyond normal
human levels. Way beyond, like ESP-levels of cognitive abilities. When the lab
is broken into, Melinda realizes that someone has been keeping tabs on her
research and wants it for themselves. A happy accident destroys critical data
before it can fall into the wrong hands, but unfortunately that makes Melinda
and her perfect memory a target.
A.L.F.A
sends in jaguar-shifter Agent Parish Hamel to discover who is after the virus
and why. The beautiful scientist acts like catnip to his senses and throws his
mating instincts into overdrive. And then she disappears along with the only
sample of the virus…. Now Parish must canvas the darkest areas of the supernatural
underground to rescue Melinda, and what he discovers is beyond a paranormal’s
worst nightmare.
My review:
Elemental
Mating is the first in a new series by Milly Taiden. I love that this book
takes place in Uganda. I absolutely adore the fact that our heroine, Melinda,
is a gifted scientist. I liked the mix of science and paranormal. I enjoyed the
story. I just wish I could have felt the attraction between jaguar-shifter
Agent Parish Hamel and Melinda more. It felt a little forced to me which is not
usually an issue in this authors work. That being said; bring on the next
installment.
