Highly trained VC Warrior, Dr. Slade Buchanan’s, role between lifesaver and lifetaker has been a constant battle, but nothing prepared him for half-breed VC Warrior trainee, Jill Nichols. Slade realizes his struggles from the past were nothing compared to the difficulty of resisting the woman who could never belong to a man like him.

Being the only female VC Warrior recruit, Jill Nichols, has an uphill battle. Falling for the sexy doctor, Slade Buchanan, has not made the battle any easier, especially when he constantly reminds her and others there will never be anything between them. Working harder than any male recruit, obstacles are thrown in her path, and with each challenge, it becomes clear that the two things she wants most may never be.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I received this book from the author for an honest opinion.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH *runs around the room* I love this woman!! I cannot get enough of her books. They are full of passion, humor (come on Sid is funny), whit, twisting plots and soooo much more. One thing I really love is that her storyline is always moving forward. We never have the same stale plot line or a recycling of boy meets girl love story. Each and every Warrior and their mate has had their own issues and drama to fact while dealing with whatever new bad guy they are trying to track down. I also love that with each book we still see a lot and keep up with the other Warriors and their mates……Cuz serioulsy I needs me some Jared time……*licks lips*

Ok so Slade aka Vampire Dr. Hottie Mc Hot Stuff has been lusting over our little half-breed Jilly Bean since he walked on to the set of the series. I mean, HELLO, IF I didnt love Jared like I do…….uhm yeah I would be a Slade girl!! ANYWAY, our girl Jill has been through the gamet of emotion. She got booted for being turned, she is the only female recuit in the Warrior program and she isnt really well liked by anyone outside of the Warriors compound. She sees and works with Slade but figures he would soooo not be interested in her when he can have awful but beautiful Alice. We see them fighting against everything to be together…each fighting this pull while EVERYONe else is about to kick their butts. ( OMG the bet scene when everyone pays up about the Slade/Jill will they/wont they relationship bet…I was in stiches!!!!) When they FINALLY get to “relating” to each other, I was so happy buuuuut Slade *shakes finger* was an EPIC DB and made me and Jill cry…..GROWL Warrior. NOT COOL!!!!

Slade and Jill have to deal with alot this book but the show down between Alice and Jill is EVERYTHING you wanted and then more!! Trust me. I totally re-read that scene!! I loved Jill from the start but each book she has proven to be such an amazing member of the team and I, along with Slade, were so proud of her!!!

This book was a great set up for the next book. I am really excited about everything. I wanna yell at Teresa though because I was crying at the last 20% of the book. She cannot ever do something like that to me again. It is a good thing I dont have her phone number or she would have gotten a snot sobbing call from me saying “WHY!!!!”

Teresa Gabelman is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the ‘Protectors Series’. 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 a MMA event or spending a fun evening with family.

Being a full-time writer has allowed Teresa to connect more with readers which is what she loves most about writing. If you find the time she would love to hear from you!
