Summary: Protect Her
Golden Alexander is trapped in a nightmare.
Trying to flee her hallucination of a demon, she runs heart first into the brooding alpha male she's been dreaming about for years, and then her nightmare really begins.
Kris Pietka is done with women... he's broken. But when he meets Golden, an overwhelming need to protect her tests everything, he thought he knew about himself, and the paranormal.
A bond forged centuries ago thrusts them together as they search for a way to break an ancient Druid curse prophesying their demise. Racing against the clock, they travel from Vermont, to the Carpathian Mountains in Poland, and the Scottish Highlands in search of answers and a way to break the curse.
But something evil watches - it covets, and time is running out.
Will fate allow love to prevail against unbeatable odds, or will Golden wake to find it was all a delusion?
Review: Four Stars
This book was hard to get into; I stopped and started three times before I could get passed the second chapter. It's not too often I run across books where it takes so many chapters to get into it and start enjoying the story. I found myself going back to the summary to see why I asked to review this book. Once I got into it; I could see what appealed to me.
All the characters were well-developed and, you gained that connection with the story through them, as it should be. Once I really got into the story, I couldn't put the book down and finished it in one night. The overall flow of the book was good.
Conclusion:
It's a toss up would I recommend this story to others since it took me three tries to get into it and I know most of my friends enjoy the same types of books as I do, it makes me wonder will they also have trouble connecting with this story. I most likely will check back with this author and read the next book in the series to see if she did better.
