BOOK SYNOPSIS:
From the New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed Immortal Guardians series comes an enchanting new series full of romance, danger, and loyalty: The Gifted Ones

Since the day Lord Dillon earned his spurs, rumors of his savagery on the battlefield have preceded him into every room, stilling tongues and sparking fear. Weary of battle, he wishes only to find a woman he can wed who will approach him not with fear, but with the tenderness that has been absent from his life for so long. Yet only the wisewoman seems invariably at ease in his presence. Perhaps because she garners the same fear in others that he does himself.

For seven years, Alyssa has been by Lord Dillon’s side, counseling him from the shadows, healing him with her hands, and staving off the worst of his loneliness while his fearsome reputation keeps others at bay. Blessed–or cursed–with gifts that label her a sorceress, she is forced to conceal her youth and the love she harbors for him beneath umbral robes that lead Dillon and his people to believe she is the same aged wisewoman who served his father.

All is revealed, however, and passions flare when an enemy threatens Dillon’s life and Alyssa sacrifices everything to save him. When Dillon discovers that the wisewoman is far from elderly, he is instantly entranced. And, as he and Alyssa work together to defeat an enemy bent on destroying them both, Dillon will risk anything–even the wrath of his king–to be with her.

REVIEW:
Amazing!! I have fell in love with Ms. Duvall and her Immortal Guardian series (waiting not so patiently for the next books). So when Ms. Duvall said she was writing a book about ‘The Gifted Ones’ and how the whole Immortal Guardian world came about I was beyond excited to read. When I was given the chance to read an advance copy I was over the moon. Then I opened the book.
And fell in love this this book.
Alyssa is great!! I loved that she sacrifices so much for what she believes in and who she loves even if she knows she will never get her heart desire. Alyssa shows over and over in this book why she is such a great wisewoman and deserves all the respect. I was rooting for her on every page.
Lord Dillon starts out a bit stuffy and rough. But as the story goes on we get to see what lays below the surface. What is under there is an amazing guy who is willing to do anything for those he calls his own. No matter how many people he threatens with beheading.
Seriously loved this book!! I can’t wait for the next book in the series, because there has to be more!!!! Oh and Immortal Guardian fans hold on to your hat because we get a cameo from someone in chapter 5. Yes I had a little bit of an “Oh my goodness!!” moment when they walked in on the pages 🙂
Pick up a copy of this book and fall in love with ‘The Gifted Ones’
