Kelly Greene has experienced firsthand the depravity of humanity. Each day she strives to use her psychic abilities to save innocent lives, yet her latest case brings her into a world she never expected. When she touches the mind of a kidnapper, she sees and feels so much more, things that make no sense. Before she can discern the truth, her encounter is interrupted by another man who assails her senses and emotions. When she finds the same man later lying injured in her vehicle, she has a choice to make, save him or turn him over to the organization hunting him and the kidnapper.

Saxxon has been a hunter, a trained weapon for longer than he can remember and yet something about the woman in front of him challenges him to be more. As memories slowly trickle into his awareness, he must decide how much he wants freedom. Can Kelly help him, or will her lure be his downfall back into a private hell?

Lynx Clan: Forgiven is an involved, satisfying read which will have readers looking for other stories in this series. Saxxon is a complex character readers will see mature before their eyes. The changes in his character, due in part to his own resolve and his relationship with Kelly, make him an unusual but likeable hero. The emotional connection between Kelly and Saxxon grows from an unlikely friendship into the deep commitment of mates who have an intense connection both in and out of bed. Their sexual encounters capture all the chemistry and emotion driving them. However, as their bond deepens, a very real menace stalks them and threatens to destroy their newfound relationship. The author builds the suspense nicely into the plot and keeps the pacing consistent and quick. I never knew exactly where the story was going to go. The secondary characters draw nicely on other books by L. Shannon and enliven the story with humor and conflict. The climax is well written and has this reader anxiously looking for the next in the series.
