Guardian's Grace (Dark Protectors, #12)

by Rebecca Zanetti

Duty—or desire?
 
Vampire soldier Adare O’Cearbhaill’s default setting is cranky.  Or irritated.  Or down-right hostile.  Still, as a Highlander of honor and duty, he stepped up to save an enhanced and special human female by mating her—with merely a bite and a brand. The last person he wants in his life is a fragile human, yet he can’t get her out of his mind as she regains her strength before taking off for parts unknown. And when he discovers she is in danger, nothing can stop him from hunting her down—whether she likes it or not.
 
There’s only one way to find out . . .
 
Photographer Grace Cooper has had it with vampires, demons, and the rest of an immortal world she was happier not knowing about. She also doesn’t believe she’s destined for some great battle because of an old birthmark. Forget the fact that her mate is the sexiest thing on two stubborn feet, or that her brand is fading along with her health. She’ll handle things on her own—until an old enemy reappears and she learns the only way to stay alive is to actually mate, wild sex and all, with that ripped and dangerous Adare—a powerful, captivating Highlander who demands nothing less than everything . . .

Reviews

*I received a free copy of Guardian's Grace. This has in no way influenced my voluntary review which is honest and unbiased.*

It has been a while since I've hung out with the Dark Protectors, and as always, it was an action-filled pleasure. There was a lot going on, with some betrayals that hurt really bad, but also some love and romance that felt really good.

Guardian's Grace is well written, and rather fast-paced in most places. There are some instances where the pace slows down, and those made me want to get to what might happen because of those moments.

It's always great when a series is still going strong in the 12th book! Definite rec from me.

I had been looking forward to how this story would go but ended up being a disappointed overall. I feel like issues presented from the original story were changed such as Adare's "lost love"

Will be be shortly with a full review.
