Cat’s Cradle by Bianca D’Arc
I’m a fan of Bianca D’Arc’s books so I had no problem picking this one up. The Cat’s Cradle actually caught my attention from the start. As I delved further into the read it got to the point I really didn’t want to put it down. But hitting 4:30 am when I first started it I knew wouldn’t work.
I was thrilled with her two main characters totally. Refreshing to see a female lead be exactly that. Elaine a nurse by profession was a feisty little thing with a sense of humor that was refreshing. She could handle her own. Until one evening when her entire world changed at the drop of a pin.
Elaine was running late AGAIN for her jiu jitsu class. Shihan Harris hated lateness and was not easy on those who were. Rushing from her car and running towards the building where her class was she grabbed the door and ran in, missing a very important note posted on the door. Class Was Cancelled. Changing into her gi she realized something was off but continued walking to the room her class was in. When she entered she noticed there were just a few people and Shihan Harris in the room with the lights dim. When Shihan Harris approached her trying to block her view, with a strained posture told her class was cancelled and did she not see the note on the door. In her rush to get in she had not. He told her to leave and forget anything she saw here. I won’t go into the nitty gritty of their conversation but Elaine turned around and headed out to her car. Once through the door she ran right into a wall. Not a real wall but a hard body hunk of a wall Cade, Alpha Pantera Noir and head of the Royal Guard. But Elaine did not know this. After some banter back and forth when Elaine was asked where she was going and it was realized at that time her car a Lime VW was not in the parking lot everything went downhill from there. She ended up having to walk/run home to put as much distance between her and Cade. She didn’t want him following her. But he did anyway. She couldn’t get the hunky man out of her mind. Once home and settled in with her house cat Chuck Norris while watching the news disturbing news flashed the screen about her dojo on fire and there could be injuries. Because of her helping nature she didn’t think twice before she was on the run back to the dojo. Cade who had been on the fire escape watching her saw the news and was at the dojo in a flash. He had to see if all escaped unharmed. Nyx Pantera Queen known as Ria was there with a few of the Royal Guard to get Harris to assist in relocating her to somewhere safe. Cade’s duty along with Mitch was to guard the perimeter while they were inside, but he went off following a human woman.
When Cade arrived back at the dojo he found Mitch badly hurt and then he saw Elaine running towards the building. He needed help and he needed help now. He grabs Elaine and restrains her hand over her mouth so she won’t scream and tells her he won’t hurt her but he needs her help and he and Mitch need to get out of there. Cade lets her know he knows she’s a nurse and Mitch is in a bad way they need help. She takes them back to her place and her Nurse kicks in. Cleaning and inspecting his wounds she does what she can. She also offers up her friend Gina if need be. After several hours Mitch is not getting better and he starts convulsing, Gina is called in. And now the fun begins. Elaine’s world is totally turned upside down and she handles everything like the champ she is. Nina listens and she asks questions and offers solutions as you will see in the story. The attraction between Cade and Elaine is felt immediately and grows stronger and stronger throughout the story. I need to stop here otherwise I’ll give the entire story away. This is really a great read. I’m looking forward to the next book of this series.
