Blurb

As soon as I heard the news, I knew it had to be wrong.


Bea? A killer? Impossible.

Not the sweet therapist who gently bullied me into recovery and never gave up on me, no matter how grouchy I was. She believed in me even when I didn’t believe in myself. And I wouldn’t be where I am now without her.

Helping Bea means breaking the law. It means asking my Blade and Arrow teammates to risk their freedom, if we’re caught. But the idea of leaving Bea on her own is unthinkable. So, with my friends' help, we race to stage a daring rescue before it's too late.

I woke up from one nightmare only to be thrust into another.

First witness to a horrific crime; now accused of being the one who did it.

On top of that, my protector is a man I never expected to see again. I thought about Indy from time to time—wondering, worrying, even toying with the idea of checking up on him. But I never, ever imagined I’d wake up on the other side of the country after he abducted me.

I want to be angry with him for what he did, even though he claims he’s just trying to help me. But it’s really hard to stay mad at Indy when he’s the only one who makes me feel safe.

Protected from Villainy features a wounded warrior hero, a sweet and strong heroine with struggles of her own, forced proximity, found family, a security team of Army veterans, and plenty of sweet and steamy moments. Can be read as a standalone and an HEA guaranteed!

MY REVIEW


As soon as Indy hears that Bea is a murder suspect, he knows there's absolutely no way she's guilty. So he and his teammates come up with a way to rescue her. With him she'll stay until they can find evidence proving her innocence, and find out who's really guilty. He always was fascinated with her back when she was his physical therapist, but having her back in his life is showing him how he truly feels. He's not sure he can let her go when this is all over. Here's hoping she feels the same way.


When Bea wakes up with no clue where she is and how she got there, the first person she sees is her former client, Indy. Finding out how he took her out of the hospital, to save her he says, should make her mad, but what she's really feeling is something much different. With Indy she feels safe and protected, and she's starting to feel something a whole hell of a lot more than either of those two things also. But when this whole ordeal is over, will Indy want her to stay?


When I first was introduced to Indy in his sister and Rafe's story (Protected from Malice), he was so intriguing that I I really wanted to read his backstory. Similar to Rafe, Indy is a protective alpha, also similar to Rafe, he feels as if he's not good for the woman he's realized that he loves. Thank God for Bea because she saw the real Indy, that he was a truly good man, and deserved to be loved, to have the happiness they found together. I love Gia's characters - her alphas are sometimes broken in ways, but all have big hearts, soft spots for the ones they love. Her heroines are equally amazing, with big hearts, also with their own scars, but love their protective guys. Indy and Bea's story is now my favorite in this series with its suspense (I definitely did not have a clue who the villain was) that wove seamlessly with their evolving, strengthening physical and emotional connections. The cast of found family is strong this time around too, and I'm very, very excited to read as each one finds love.

Review: Waiting for You by Kate McBrien

Review of Waiting for You by Kate McBrien Justin and Lucy are apart, but for how long? Lucy's staying with her parents, but knows she needs to get out and start living her life again. But when she gets a chance to go to London, it just may be her chance to reunite with the man whose soul has been entwined with hers for centuries upon centuries. But first, our two fated lovers will have to not only reunite, but stay together, beat the odds and the people and/or forces who are trying to keep them apart. Waiting for You is a great followup to Discovering You. Justin and Lucy's story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful connection. I normally don't read a lot of paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi romance anymore, but I loved it here in Waiting for You. It's subtle, but ever present and as I said, just makes their story all the more intriguing. I can't wait for the conclusio...
