Synopsis (Goodreads):
So hard.
With this book, we finally get to meet Oberon in the flesh and see the damage Morgan's spell did to him. Oberon is...let's just say he's a little rough around the edges in the beginning. The spell has eaten away at his humanity and left him cold and more than a little wild. Only his immense desire not to succumb to the darkness inside him keeps him from being devoured by it entirely.
Katherine has a lot of hurdles to overcome in order to even try to help him. Figuring out how to remove the spell is only the beginning. Getting the big guy to trust her enough to try what she needs to do is sort of a monumental task. But she's good at what she does and she wants to succeed. So she pushes forward.
And Oberon pushes back.
Yeah. Danger and simmering sexual tension with a guy who's half wild and who you really don't like on top of the challenge of trying to cure the impossible takes a lot out of a lady. Or at least it lowers her defenses enough she starts to contemplate things she wouldn't otherwise contemplate.
These two really are smoking together. He's cold and focused and she's furiously determined. Things go from zero to sixty and back down to zero again in the blink of an eye.
I'm sorry to see this series arc end, but, MAN, what a satisfying way to go. *thumbs up* all around.

Synopsis (Goodreads):
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Thea Harrison comes the final story in her spellbinding Moonshadow trilogy…Thoughts on Lionheart: All right. Full disclosure: I'm deeply smitten with the entire Elder Races world and I've adored every step of the Moonshadow books. They satisfy my craving for slightly feral romance and give me enough danger and adventure to make me happy. I just <3 them hard.
King Oberon reigned over his Dark Court in Lyonesse for centuries, until an assassination attempt laid him low. Now he lies unconscious in his snow-bound palace, while his Power battles the enchantment that threatens to end his life.
A skilled trauma surgeon and magic-user, Dr. Kathryn Shaw reigns at the top of her profession in New York. Then comes a challenge she can’t resist—she is asked to cure the uncureable. Just getting close enough to try healing Oberon is a dangerous proposition. When she does reach him, he awakens too soon.
Roused from darkness by Kathryn’s presence, Oberon confronts the beautiful stranger who claims she wants to save his life. But the enchantment has frozen his emotions. How can he learn to trust her when he can’t feel anything?
Oberon’s desire is icy, devoid of all tenderness. Not only must Kathryn match wits with him, she must also fight her reaction to his touch, because there is so much more at stake than her own endangered heart.
For the Dark Court faces its most deadly peril yet. Its ancient enemy Isabeau, Queen of the Light Court, is obsessed with its annihilation, and Oberon must be brought to remember his loyalty and affection for his people.
Because if he won’t fight for them, Lyonesse itself may very well be destroyed…
So hard.
