Cloaked in the identity of David Xavier, a billionaire player in multiple world theaters, Mike White Horse worked to enter the Russian Mafia’s lair, by stalking a shadowy creature named “The Concierge.” The Russian woman brokered young innocents into slavery, and Mike meant to destroy her and the organization she worked for. He should have despised her for the atrocious crimes she facilitated, … but too often love and hate are the flip sides of the same coin, and what Mike felt for Taty was not hate. It didn’t matter. He’d destroy the Bravata and all its associates–even if it meant part of his soul sat in prison for the rest of her life.
Driven by heartbreak, Tatyana Petrov joined the elite British M16 unit, and for eight years, wormed her way into the trust of the Bravata as she strove to identify the human filth selling those innocents to billionaires like David Xavier. She’d found it easy to loathe the wealthy men who bought her “toys”–until David. For reasons that she wouldn’t acknowledge, she wanted to protect this one man from the retribution rapidly approaching.
Neither knew the other’s true mission but even as mortal adversaries, they’d each given the other a part of their soul, and now only devastation and sorrow waited.

The way in which Kris Michaels set up the Chief story line was captivating Not only did she give us Chief’s undercover story but she also detailed Guardian’s mission as they worked taking down Bratava. Two sides of the same coin and done extraordinarily well. We got to know Mike “Chief” White Cloud as a lethal operative, highly trained warrior and a man of few words. Stepping into his new role gave him a whole new dimension; charasmatic, richly successful businessman added to his underlying commanding presence is a dangerous combination. Tatyana Petrov is caught up in something big and pehaps no way out. She’s smart, sexy and fills a need for Chief. They unknowingly are working for the same goal. They definitely heat things up along the way. While there is some action in this romance, the emphasis is on psychological and emotional intrigue and suspense.
Another fantastic installment of The Kings of Guardian series. I have been waiting patiently for Chief’s story since he went undercover and Kris Michaels did not disappoint.
Blessed with his Alpha team family, Chief will risk it all, and do what it takes to ensure the entire King family and his ‘brothers’ are safe from the threats of the Bravata. A year in the making and it’s mission ‘go’. Too bad, Chief didn’t know it was his heart that would be the casualty of this war.
Tatyana Petrov is a concierge for the Bravata, a criminal, but the heart wants, what the heart wants.
All is not what it seems and what started out as a means to an end, for both Taty and Chief, quickly becomes so much more…if only there were hope for something more normal one day. Hiding behind duty and deception they resign themselves to letting the chips fall where they may.
Chief is the consummate alpha billionaire, Taty is strong and resilient and their chemistry together is incendiary. The feels in this story are a roller coaster ride. Full of emotion and our favorite cast of Guardians, Chief’s story will definitely be added to my list of favorites. Bring on #8 !
I loved Chief! He was such a great guy who was willing to die in order to save his Guardian family. Going undercover as David Xavier took a toll on Chief, especially when he realized he would have to take advantage of Tatyana, a woman he believed to be part of the Russian Bravata. But he was determined to do his job, and even more determined to walk away from his feelings no matter how much it hurt.
Tatyana had spent eight years undercover in her attempt to reach the top of a human trafficking group. Her gut told her that David wasn’t the man he pretended to be. Taty tried to fight the feelings she felt towards David, but she knew her heart would break in the end since the job had to be completed.
Ugh, I hated that these two were both suffering because of the identities they had to hide and the roles they had to play. I kept hoping one would figure it out, and then something would happen that would push them further apart. I loved the ending. I also love how much Gabriel truly cares about the men and women in Guardian. That man just looks out for his people. These books all have happy endings, and they all end with little peaks into the next characters’ books. To me personally, the series gets better with each book.
Chief is undercover going after the Bratva who have gone after the Guardian Family. Nothing is what it seems. I loved this chapter in the series and you won’t be disappointed. I’m binge reading the series now and I highly recommend this author and this series. He’ll sacrifice what he has to to keep his family safe.
Brilliant I loved it
Chief opens with a glimpse to the previous year, when decisions are made and a plan is put in place. Once again Kris Michaels takes us on a thrilling journey. From the Dakotas to Europe, we follow Chief in his undercover role in an attempt to bring down the Russians.
With backup from all of our favourite Guardians, the drama unfolds with some unexpected twists, causing some heart stopping moments.
Mike “Chief” is everything you would expect from a Kris Michaels Guardian, hot , sexy, sweet, with hidden depths that makes you wish he was a real life hero.
Taty is his kickass opposition, their attraction is forbidden, neither should want it, but neither can resist it & in the fabulous writing style we have come to expect from Kris Michaels, their story is expertly woven, we find ourselves rooting for Chief & Taty to not only defeat their demons but also to have their happy ending.
Definitely a must read!!! This author just keeps getting better and better !!
My favorite in the series
Love this series!!!
Loved it
