Saved by the Beast: Kindred Tales 39

 Evangeline Anderson

This was a quicker read than usually for this author but I loved being able to read in one afternoon. The Trollox, one just shudders hearing their species make an appearance. Bard was on the planet for business when he spotted a Trollox purchasing this young woman. Makenna has a language barrier with the Kindred but understands she is being saved. Bard is in denial, his wife has been dead 20 years and he also feels too old for Makenna. The Trollox will not give up what he paid for and his lurking could pay off. Can Bard save her in time and face his future? I'm obsessed with this series and devour each story. I highly recommend it.

A warrior who thinks he’s too old to find love
A desperate woman with a dark past
Can Makenna be…Saved by the Beast?

Are you ever too old for love? Bard, a Beast Kindred, thinks he is. He lost his wife twenty years ago when he was just a young warrior and he’s never looked at another female since. But when he sees a young woman being sold to a disgusting Trollox on Passion Prime, he has to rescue her from her horrible fate.

Makenna knows she barely escaped, but even safe aboard the Mother Ship with Bard, she is still in danger. She’s about to undergo her first “ripening”—a period of intense sexual need that can lead to death if she has no male to help her. Naturally, she wants Bard to be that male—she knows the moment she meets him that he is the one for her.

Unfortunately, the big Beast Kindred has other ideas. Though he longs for the curvy little female, he pushes Makenna away, certain that he’s too old for her. But when he pushes her too far, the Trollox she was promised to is ready to snatch her back. Now a battle of life and death is being played in the lush, blue jungles of Rageron, the Beast Kindred home world.
Will Bard get to Makenna in time? Read, Saved by the Beast to find out!

Trigger Warning: Anyone who has experienced sexual abuse may find parts of this book disturbing due to the heroine’s backstory. I try to keep these details in the background and not dwell on them, but I wanted to warn you just in case. Please read responsibly!

Team Trojan - 5 great stories

 

Defending Sophie: Brotherhood Protectors World (Team Trojan Book 1)

Great start to a new team within one of my favourite series. Team Trojan, a team of five men were discharged from the Special Forces and quickly snapped up to join the Colorado division of Brotherhood Protectors.
This story starts with Bodie, he is protecting Sophie who stumbled onto a crime. She's scouting scenes for a wedding shoot, as a photograph she snapped way more than she expected.
Sophie is now in danger, as a witness she may be eliminated. As the chemistry fires up between her and Bodie, can they have their HEA. Danger is all around, who will survive?
Great story, I highly recommend this series and look forward to the next one.

Defending Evangeline: Brotherhood Protectors World (Team Trojan Book 2)

This is number two in this five book team as part of the Brotherhood Protectors group. Ex Seals, green berets and other ex service men make up this large group. These latest 5 to the team are all special forces with expert training making them perfect for the organisation. Zeke falls into a mission by coincidence. He had his eye on this women who seemed suspicious or hiding, just something not quite right. Right in front of him he sees her being dragged to a car and flies to the rescue. Taking her back to the ranch the guys are determined to get to the bottom on it. Is she a criminal on the run? Or a victim?
I quite enjoyed this plot, a tale of murder, drama, action and greed. Not to mention this couple finding each other.
A great entertaining read, I highly recommend it.

Defending Casey: Brotherhood Protectors World (Team Trojan Book 3)

I already love this series and now I'm loving this team.
This is Hondo's story and his return to his home town after 1o yrs. He doesn't want to bump into his high school sweetheart after their ugly break up. Little did Hondo know what really happened and what he'd left behind.
This is my second book by this author and she knows how to write a good sizzle.
Can't be all 'wine and roses' though as we know the suspense is coming. Can they all overcome this danger and have their HEA?
Great story, I highly recommend this series.

Defending Sparrow: Brotherhood Protectors World (Team Trojan Book 4) 

This was my first read by this author and I really enjoyed it. I love this series and this team.
This is Stone's story and his connection with Sparrow, the local cop. Sparrow's family were and some are still gang members. She works hard on the right side of the law but some family would like to wipe her out if she won't work for them.
This was a drama filled, dangerous story with plenty of action at the end. Who will survive?

Defending Avery: Brotherhood Protectors World (Team Trojan Book 5)

This is book 5 in this 5 man team, all of which I have enjoyed immensely. This is also a first read for me by this author, so I will need to see what else they have written.
Avery is a woman with some major baggage, she's started afresh in her life. Her evil past is catching up to her. Will she be branded an accomplice or a victim?
I enjoyed this woman's strength and her connection with Clint.
This story rounded up the team wonderfully, the team and their partners and children were a joy to read.

The Rhythm Method: A Stage Dive Novella

This was short and so real.
Having a baby is not easy and the author was not afraid to hold back on reality.
We get a glimpse of our fave characters and how their lives are going.
This is David and Ev's story and their surprise miracle. Not even time to plan, their lives were turned upside down.
It's a short, entertaining read but I love these characters and their lives.

Bullards Beauty (Bullard's Battle Book 8)

 by Dale Mayer

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome series

It's been a while coming, while we anxiously waited for news on Bullard. Why he hasn't contacted his team in all this time.
Injuries, amnesia and surgery kept him mostly unconscious and unaware of who he was. His saviour, Leia is a trained surgeon enjoying her time in isolation on a tranquil island due to a past disaster. Finding Bullard on the beach and tending to him for weeks he finally is stronger in body and mind as his memories return. Contacting the outside world could bring rescue or danger to their location.
When Leia is affected by these circumstances it's a race to find out if it's her past or his...or is it both?
I loved all the action and danger and did not see the end twist coming.
Great story.

Bullard’s barely aware of his surroundings, as he slowly emerges from a coma and months of slow healing. He recognizes the general area but not the facilities or the woman attending him. Neither does he remember exactly what happened.

Leia, a gifted surgeon in her own right, hadn’t expected this giant of a man to wash up in the shallows by her beach, nor to call on every trick she’s ever learned to keep him alive. Her instincts tell her to take a leave, to keep him hidden, even as she struggles to answer his questions. The longer he’s with her, the more she realizes how hard it could be to let him go. But he has turned the corner and is healing quickly.

Only the real world intrudes faster than expected, as one of Bullard’s team shows up on her beach, bringing others, who’d been watching and waiting for the team to find Bullard for them—and now swoop in for the kill …
