After spending all summer out of work, Nikki Haywood can barely make rent and scrape up tuition for the upcoming school year. She’s almost ready to move back home at the insistence of her mother, when she scores a new job at a theme park. Sure, it means singing off key in a huge ladybug costume, but it’s a small price to pay if it means she can stay in Florida with her friends. However, she has … has no idea that overdue bills are the least of her worries until she meets Liam Payne who comes bearing a warning… She’s the last guardian and is being hunted by the Queen of Amyr.
Liam, a novice djinn, arrives just moments after losing his cousin and is resolved to make sure his cousin’s death isn’t for nothing. But, he quickly realizes it’s easier said than done upon meeting Nikki, a college student dead set on ignoring the powers that is awakened within her. She seems more concerned about college life and her new job than accepting the immediate danger she’s in. He certainly has his work cut out for him, but he has made a promise—that he intends to keep—which means protecting Nikki from a warrior queen that wishes to end her. And, it’s only a matter of time before the queen finds her.
To save the guardian from a ruthless queen, Liam must convince Nikki of her legacy. Will he be able to prove himself to Nikki and stop the imminent threat before it’s too late?

A lot going on behind Nikki’s back. She has a lot to learn. Liam is trying but he is also trying to learn. A great begging to this world. I received a complimentary review copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving a honest review.

Liam is working and living his life the best way he can. He walked away from his family due a mistake he made. He is surprised one day when his cousin shows up and he is talking about the last guardian. How it is their job to protect them. He doesn’t want to go but he does. Things don’t go as planned and his cousin sent him to the area where the guardian was supposed to me.
Nikki is trying to make ends meet after being without a job and being in college. She has her boyfriend and a life in Florida. She finally gets a job she is excited about, will help her meet all her financial needs.
Nikki is not expecting her life to make such drastic changes. From the cute guy at was at her job saving her, to people wanting to harm her, her magic and being a guardian
This book was amazing. It has characters that you want that pull you in, there are plot twists with things not being as they are and it is well paced. You will not want to put this book down. I am looking to reading more of this series
I received an ARC copy of this book, and this is my honest review.
I was totally lost on the book, it did not give me any detail on what a guardian was in this book or what was behind Liam being the last djinn. We did get a little back ground on Liam and the Queen, but not much. WE know Liam is to protect Nikki. Nikki is a college student who thinks her only problem is to pay rent and her best friend and boyfriend. It seems that she just takes everything in stride. It does have a good story idea. After reading the book I find out there was a prequel that I could have read and maybe the book would have made more sense to me.

First, please get the prequel (which is great by itself) before reading this book. The first half of this book made me think “oh OK, good story, very interesting”.
But the second half blew my mind! I wasn’t expecting all the twists and turns! It’s like watching an adventure movie. A pleasant surprise. I recommend this book!
