Synopsis:
Destined Dates Agency for the Supernatural
Finds and matches the Supernatural with their true love mates

Leah misses her best friend, Jane, terribly.
At the moment, the only person in her life is the white haired stranger who comes into the Diner every night to eat the slice of pie she saves for him. He always seems to be watching her. He intrigues her; he has a way of catching her attention…

The stranger, however, has a secret, and it’s certainly no ordinary secret.
Actually, he has more than one, and he’s really not sure how she’s going to take it, let alone his second secret, or the third. Oh, and there’s always the fourth one… the one that links the first and second secrets together, the one that connects everything…
When he overhears Leah asking her best friend for the name of the dating agency she used, he’s about ready to give up hope.
But that’s not his only problem.

For one thing, there are the others back at his hotel…

Review:
As book one was about Jane and her love life, this second in the Destined Dates Book series concentrates on another character, Leah who, like Jane is a waitress at the same New York Diner. Yet again, the Destined Dates Agency has matched her to a mate she wasn't expecting and can't for the life of her control. She has some serious issues about him, but wonders how to go about executing them.

Leah is a woman used to shifters and wolves, that was why she came to the agency in the first place. She wanted a man who could be a wolf, be himself, but what she didn't think would happen is that the man who comes into her diner every night to be served by her has many facets to his personality she's not ready for; he has strange, piercing eyes she has to contend with, has white hair and is handsome, yet once she gets with him, he doesn't take her out to dinner, instead he takes her out hunting, and to make matters even weirder, a wolf saves her when she is attacked. It's the other parts of  him that she can't understand, but must get over if they are to become a serious item.

Like the first novel in the series, this is a novel that continues the friendship we found between Jane and her new lover, this is about her friend Leah who is in dire need of a lover herself. Romantic novels are as many faceted as Leah's new squeeze, he is handsome, but every time she gets used to a part of his personality, he comes along with another - which annoys her immeasurably. Leah needs for the relationship to go well, but sees that there could be more complications than what Jane faced with hers and having a man of many talents might not always make him the perfect partner on second looking.

The Destined Dates Agency has probably made some great matches in their time, but for some the matches they get are never what they expect in certain areas. Destined Dates book 2 is such a case where Leah could be in for several shocks with  her lover, but she hopes he can be the man she wants - not someone who tends to annoy her. There is a decent mix of supernatural, shifting and moonlight romance in this one that leaves a smile on the face after it has been read and the outcome taken in.

Summary: This is a nice continuation of the first romance novel in the series seen from a different person's perspective.
