Watchtower #3
Out of the (Werewolf) Closet
A marriage to his people's worst enemy is only the start of Rick's troubles. Ancient magic rears its ugly head, and his promise to Aidan, to find the third Watchtower, puts him right in the middle of an oncoming storm.
Waking up collared to his worst enemy wasn't the most horrific thing that happened to Rick: waking up to an impending forced marriage was. And as if this wasn't bad enough, he couldn't deny that underneath all the anger, he was actually attracted to Tom, King of bloody everything and enemy to his people since the dawn of days.
And yet, Tom's bumbling efforts to get closer to him, his puppy dog eyes and surprising honesty are slowly winning him over. But travelling to the cursed land where no one outside Tom's Clan had set foot on in centuries was only the start of their adventure.
Betrayal from within and his promise to Aidan to investigate the ancient magic of the Watchtowers, make Rick's life more than just interesting but even in his wildest dreams, he couldn't have anticipated where his search would lead him.

This book is part of a series and must be read in order. Rick (Prince Alric) is confused to wake up in the bed of his enemy, collared and told he is about to wed. All he had wanted was to find the information on the Watchtowers for his friends, and now he is about to wed and facing certain death. But, the secrets of Tom’s clan lead Rick to answers, now if only he can survive betrayals and his own husband’s well-meaning fumbling’s.
This book picks up just after Rick leaves Aidan and James in Over the Moon and is an excellent addition to the Watchtower Series. Rick wakes up confused and befuddled in the hands of his enemy, who for some strange reason thinks Rick should be happy that they are to wed. Rick has more important things to worry about as the collar drains his life force and he knows he has an important task that now might fail, the Watchtowers. But, as Tom learns about a betrayal and sweeps Rick away to his people’s land Muria, Rick and Tom along with Tom’s uncle Darren make new discoveries.
This is a wonderfully written book that opens up the world and adds to the world building of the previous books. We met Rick briefly in Over the Moon and in this one he makes the story his own. We find out why King Tom of Allin is so hell-bent on getting his hands on Rick. We discover more about the Watchtowers and the next puzzle piece and we discover secrets about Tom. Rick and Tom make for a conflicted couple and there are some clashes between them, but they also come to a better understanding when they finally sit down and talk properly and they are honest on both sides.
Tom is not quite the character that you pictured him to be in the last book. Once you understand his story, you can totally get his actions and you wonder how Rick never saw it. Rick finally admits to himself that, although Tom got on his nerves, he’s also sexy as hell. They don’t go jumping into bed and it is hot when they do finally get the chance. We also get to briefly see Aiden and James, along with Belze, and discover that the next books will have hard decisions to make.
So, I will recommend this to those who love fantasy, hidden secrets, obsessed Kings, betrayal, new discoveries, more puzzle pieces, hot sex and a great ending with the sure knowledge of more great stories to come.

I was really excited for this book, because i am a huge fan of the Watchtower series. But for some reason this book just fell flat for me. I was looking forward to Ricks and Toms story, it just didn't give me the same magic as Aidan's two books did..... it was just an ok book for me.
