This book is as great as the first one. Of course the first book in the series always has a certain magic to it but I loved to continue the story of the guardians and their mates.
This book is hot and lovely and there is simply something special about supernatural males who find their mates. They simply strive and I love it.
I also like that although this is Gregoir's story, we still get to see glimpses into the other characters lives as well and I can't wait to continue this series.
One thing, I don't particularly enjoy, are the POVs of Silas and other villains of the book. I don't really want to see the plans they have, I prefer to be surprised on that front, but I guess it does give a certain angle to this book that is different to a lot of other similar books.
All in all, I simply loved this book and I cannot wait to move onto book three!

**I received a copy of this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review**

This was an awesome continuation of the Guardians of the Realm series. It has been a while since I completed the first book, but this sequel packs in all the plot (and romance) that I have come to expect from this series. In book one we read about Urian and Alex, and in this, we read about Gregoire and Alyssa. Personally, I loved the balance between focusing strictly on their dynamic and focusing on the overarching plot of the series involving Cyril.

This book is obviously for readers 18+, I think that's a given.

"Ecstasy Claimed" has plenty of action to keep readers moving at a brisk, but not rushed pace. I absolutely love this series, and I can't wait to see where the third book takes me.

Didn't much enjoy this book. Iluts a shame because I was really look8ng forward to reading it.
