Mixed Feelings on this Breed Book
I'm torn between three and a half and four stars on this one. While I enjoyed "Jacob's Faith" by Lora Leigh, I kept wishing over and over to get past the intimate scenes and, finally, on to the plot. By about half-way through the book, there was still not much plot to be seen. The intimate scenes (while still the same scorchingly naughty stuff we are used to from Leigh) can only do so much for me before I become bored with that and need something a little more substantial.

Jacob and Faith haven't seen each other for six years - not since that fateful night in the labs of the immoral Genetics Council - when hell literally broke loose and many of the Breeds escaped. Quick recap for those of you not familiar with Leigh's Breed series: The Genetics Council is a secret government organization whose sole purpose was to create the perfect soldier/assassin by splicing animal dna with human dna. The result was wolf, feline and coyote "breeds", plus others not yet known of. Faith has endured going into heat without her mate Jacob, and is determined to do without for even longer. When their pack leader sends her to find him, their animal attraction cannot be denied, despite the conflict that still comes between them. How does one deny the needs of their body when their heart is in such conflict with the very person they want nothing to do with? This is the very problem for each. Faith would rather have nothing to do with the alpha male who left her literally aching for his touch. Jacob has sworn to stay away from Faith, believing she is much safer from the Council without him. Meanwhile, the Council's soldiers seem to have targeted Faith for no reason they can determine. It seems surprisingly easy for the soldiers to find them too, leading the wolf Breeds to believe the Council still has help from the Coyote Breeds (who are suposedly the most cunning of all the Breeds) that are still under Council control. Hang in till the very end too to discover a new twist to the Breed stories, one that hasn't come into play till this installment.

Sounds like plenty of plot, right? Well, what little bit we get in this seventh Breed book is certainly good, but there's just not enough of it. Nothing but sex, sex and more sex till more than half-way through the book. Yes, I like that aspect of the book too, but the story line for this series is so unique and interesting that I would rather have had more plot. I'm hoping to find more of that plot in the next book, which is "Aiden's Charity", about a young woman employed by the council that in fact was trying to aid the Breeds and found herself "attached" to one of them in the process.

So if you are a fan of Leigh's Breed series, do pick up Jacob's Faith" for your collection. Given the plot we get at the end of the book it's definitely not to be missed out on. Some very important things to the story (as a whole) are mentioned.

Not the book to start with.
Ok...this review is for those of you who have stumbled into this wonderful series and are thinking of starting with this book. This is NOT the book you want to read, to "break into" this series. While some of the books can be read out of order you will get MUCH more enjoyment starting with book one of the "breed" series. A friend lent me this book so I started here. This book was confusing out of order with the rest of the series, so after I read it the first time, I went back and started at the beginning. Wow. Great series! Get this book and read it...but do yourself a favor and start at the beginning...you will be very glad you discovered another author to add to your list of keepers.

Great Story and Wonderful Voice of Erotic Romance
If you like your hero's alpha and enjoy the erotic heat of a wonderful writer then this is your book. I love sci. fi. This is the second in Ms. Leigh's trilogy about the Wolf Breeds. She has developed an interesting and fast paced world that many try to duplicate and fail miserably. She is the original voice and Ms. Leigh's unique and captivating writing style draws the reader in and will not let you go from start to finish.
The Breeds is a genetically developed race that was bred to be a fighting force for the Council. This is the Sequel to Wolf's Hope. Ms. Leigh has created an on going series that is not only intellectually superior to others but is highly erotic.
Jacob is a Wolf Breed whose Mate cannot face him or herself after they both almost consummated the relationship. Faith is upset that Jacob has left her to her misery of facing not only her longing for Jacob's love but also physically as her mate.
Jacob out of mistaken nobility has left Faith to mature into a woman ready to accept him and his life. Faith is a No Nonsense heroin who would never allow herself to be mistreated. She can beat several of the males with no problem challenging Jacob. She is the type of No Nonsense Heroine we have needed in Romanitica. No Whiney Wimpy characters in this story.
So if you want a sappy love story this is not it. If you want a No Nonsense heroine who stands up for herself then GRAB this book. You will love it and Jacob who I wish was around today in the world of the Metro sexual male.
