BOOK SYNOPSIS:
If you love the Dark Protectors, these wicked hot Realm Enforcers are for you!
Alexandra Monzelle is a hard-fighting, heat-packing Seattle vice cop, and she’s not much interested in being protected. Her short skirt and sex-kitten heels are tools to lure her suspects into talking about the deadly new drug hitting the streets. She can take care of herself and then some. Unfortunately, she can’t seem to get that through to Kellach Dunne.
Kellach is a fresh import from Dublin, and he’s landed at the heart of a vicious motorcycle club that deals in guns, narcotics, and mayhem. He’s all male, all rough power—and all interference in her damn investigation. Maybe he’s one of the good guys. Maybe not. Lex knows an affair with an immortal like him would risk everything. No matter how delicious he looks…
REVIEW:
As I talk about this story always keep in mind that I am giving it 4 stars. I enjoyed this story and can’t wait to read the next in the series. This is a great start to the new direction of the Dark Protectors. You do not need to have read the DP series to read this one.
Lex is a human cop and Kellach is a witch enforcer. There is a drug that is hitting the streets that they are both trying to bring down but when they get together they become an addiction to each other. (I should have mentioned that tag line to Rebecca Zanetti.) They have a connection immediately but Lex has issues from her past that make it hard to love and trust. Kellach knows he can’t fall for a mortal but brain and heart are too different things.
Now remember I enjoyed this book as I say there were a lot of things I had issues with. First, while I know she has trust issues, Lex too quickly believes the worst in Kellach. Even after falling for him she still believes he is a killer and drug dealer. She never gets over that really. Also I believe there are 3 kinds of women in books. 1) The one you hate and really never start to like (usually end up hating the book), 2) The woman you want to be friends with and 3) The woman you wish you could be if you jumped into the book. The problem is Lex didn’t fall into any of these. Lex is more like the older sister of a friend who you like and want on your side but don’t really hang out with (or want to be). And Kellach never really did it for me. He’s sweet and protective but just never do I fall for him. And finally, there were a few things that were brought up but didn’t happy (ex: at one point Kellach says he will punish Lex by not letting her orgasm if she does something again but when the opportunity is there he doesn’t follow through, etc). Why bring things up if then they are not done?
Once again I will say I really enjoyed this book. I didn’t have the suspense part figured out. The background characters are great and I can’t wait to read their stories especially Simone and Nick… Or Tori and Adam? And who will Daide end up with? I really need to know!!!
