Chained by Memory - Razor's Edge Chronicles #6 Paperback

There are so many things I like about this series!
Apiya and weretiger Sarroch are on a mission to form a mating bond. Which is going to prove very difficult because of something in Sarroch's past. Centuries past. The longer you hold onto something, the harder it is to get rid of. Sarroch didn't even know he was holding on. You may wonder what he is holding on to, but I will let you read the story to find out.
In order to complete the mission, Apiya and Sarroch will go globetrotting: from Panong to Bhutan to London to somewhere not on any map. With a traveler's eye for detail, the author sets the story in exotic and wonderful places. In London, the reader will meet Pree, Apiya's friend, who is an absolute stitch!
There are many things I like about this book and series: the quirky barber to magical beings (Apiya), her artist friend (Chai), the Asian influence and setting, the magic, and Apiya's nerdy father are just a few of them. But my favorite thing has to be Hunter, Apiya's dog. Hunter is barely in Chained-by-Memory. But, at a crucial time, Apiya needs the ability to forgive and love. In order to do this, she thinks of Hunter and his unfailing unconditional love. Oh my, this moment touched my heart so!
Chained-by-Memory is a short novel at about 200 pages. I have been gobbling up the Razor's Edge Chronicles as soon as I can get my hands on each book. I recommend you start at the beginning, but if you really want to jump in here with #6, that's okay too.
Thanks to the author who provided a copy of her book in exchange for my honest review

I love this latest installment
Especially the interaction between Apiya and Sarroch, and how the story shows both their vulnerabilities as well as their strengths. For those that like a bit of drama and excitement in their reading, and a happy ending, this is a great continuation of this series. In previous stories, we learn about Apiya as we go along on her adventures. In this one, we learn more about Sarroch, his past, and how he's viewed and treated by others ' and the importance of forgiveness.
Hopefully, in the next installment, we'll find out how the rest of the Mayak are going to react. So many possibilities. For those new to the series, I do think reading the series in order helps a lot. For a taste / intro, to the series, sign up for the newsletter on the author's website. She also has another series called the 'Viper and the Urchin' which is also very entertaining.

A conclusion to the Razor's Edge Chronicles but also a new beginning
The final novel of The Razor's Edge Chronicles by Celine Jeanjean has just been published. At the end of the last book, Apiya had been threatened with execution by the Mayaks and only a mating bond with Sarroch can save her. There is no doubting the close relationship they have when he is in human form but when he changes to a weretiger he turns against her.
The story begins with a terrifying but amusing flight across the Himalayas in an old rust bucket piloted by the handsome Sarroch. He does his best to protect Apiya but as usual she must be brave and creative to solve their problems. I think I enjoyed this volume most of all but I am really going to miss the characters including the cat and the dog who relate so well to Apiya.

It has never felt so hopeless
I have waited impatiently for each of the books in this series. Each one puts Apiya in mortal danger and facing a new dilemma. Each one is a deliciously unavoidable predicament.
In the final book, the task Apiya is facing is to determine how she and Sarroch can complete the mating ritual if his tiger continues to refuse her. Without it, the Mayak will put her to death, and her time is running out.
The two of them hope to find the answer at the Tiger's Nest Monastery, home of the werecats. Getting there is terrifying ' with Sarroch flying an ancient, single-prop plane over the Himalayas only to end their flight by landing it, sans instrumentation, in the world's most dangerous airport. Surrounded by those Himalayan mountain peaks is Paro Airport, Bhutan.
Landing in one piece is only the beginning. Their trials will lead them from Bhutan to England, from werecats to Pree ' Apiya's best friend, and from parasites to the dead.
The adventure is not to be missed.
