I love how he says what he wants when it needs to be said. He makes his own mind up on things doesn\u2019t let others sway him. Amara, Joey\u2019s Aunt, I absolutely love her. She is tossed in this world but she holds on to her spunk and sass. She knows how to hold her own and stands up for herself and others.<\/p>\n<p>There is so much going on in this book and everyone is involved which I was not disappointed in. I love seeing all the characters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Amara is something special not only to King but to all the vampires. Amara has a rare blood type but when evil finds her and turns her to a half breed it makes her blood even more special \u201cGolden Blood\u201d as they call it. Now all evil is after her to use her as a weapon. King runs into her after a wellness check is called for Joey who has not been heard from in a few days.\u00a0 Can I say Amara gave King a run for his money when they first meet. Amara was used to doing things on her own protecting her brother and nephew. With King. all the Warriors, the Guardians, and all the mates around she slowly realizes she is not alone and what a big family is like.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>King is determined to protect Amara and Joey because they are his now a part of his family. He will not let anyone harm them and if they do all hell with break loose.\u00a0 And boy oh boy does all hell break loose when Amara is taken.\u00a0 We find out how special her blood is and what it can do when King goes down and she is gone.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel plays a big part in this book.\u00a0 To be able to watch this man go from an infant, to a boy to the man he is today is an amazing sight to see. It is hard for the Warriors to see him as the man he truly is and not the boy they helped raise. I absolutely loved when Daniel had to do a little butt chewing. Then we have Steve well Steve is Steve and there is never a dull moment when he is present. Gotta love Steve and TikTok. Then we have Joey. I love Joey he is full of life and I love his personality. No matter how much he feels is resting on his shoulders he stays strong but I love that King knows how to get him though everything.<\/p>\n<p>King is a true warrior through and through he can fight and doesn\u2019t take crap from no one but his tender side the way he treats Amara and knows what Amara and Joey need is absolutely heartwarming.\u00a0 He knows exactly what to say to them to help them move forward.<\/p>\n<p>This book had so much in it learning about King, Amara and Joey but also finding things out about Danial and what is happening in the underworld.\u00a0 Oh yes we even took a trip to the demon realm. I am excited for Kane\u2019s book and I have a feeling his \u2018Mate\u2019 is going to be a good one if it is who I\u2019m thinking and I have to say I am intrigued by her.<\/p>\n<p>A few of my favorites:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He couldn\u2019t help but notice how perfectly she fit against him like a puzzle piece he didn\u2019t realize was missing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNever doubt for a second that I don\u2019t want you, Amara,\u201d he whispered, his hot breath grazing her skin. \u201cBecause when the time is right, I will have you&#8230; all of you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25376 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Teresa Gabelman is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the &#8216;Protectors Series.&#8217; When not writing about sexy alpha vampires and the women who drive them crazy, she can be found on a lake with a fishing pole\/Kindle, at an MMA event, or spending a fun evening with family.<br \/><br \/>Being a full-time writer has allowed Teresa to connect more with readers, which she loves most about writing.
