If you like Lara Adrian or Rebecca Zanetti; then you’ll love Teresa Gabelman’s VC Warriors! Great series, definitely need to read in order, so you’ll understand all the characters and nuances. Steve is hysterical and I’m so bummed he’s been hurt (spoiler).
**********Contains Spoilers**********
Man, I loved this book. I loved the connection between Viktor and Lacey, their meet cute was pretty funny. I’m glad that Viktor didn’t use his lost love for Emilia to not give Lacey a chance even though he knew that him and Emilia weren’t mates, he still loved her fiercely. I loved the brotherly love between Viktor and Bishop and how much they love to annoy each other by trying to stick their noses into each other’s business. Wow, a lot of stuff happened in this book. It’s dark times and the VC Warriors are possibly on the brink of war due to Orjyll being a power hungry a*sehole set on world domination and aligning with demons. Bishop decided to bring in Charger whose a Dark Guardian and their soul purpose is to get rid of the demons and other evil entities that the VC Warriors need help with, since Nicole stumbled into Vampires being held in cages while on the job at Child Services and found out that demons were at work so they thought that they’d need all the help they can get. I loved that Lacey has a back bone and wasn’t afraid to push back. She definitely needs it being around the VC Warriors. Man, it was completely heartbreaking what Steve was subjected too because of Orjyll and he definitely needs to d*e a slow painful death. I had tears in my eyes as you could feel all their pain and I could totally understand their need for vengeance for their brother. Steve is one of my favourite characters and I know that they all just see him as annoying jokester who doesn’t know when to shut his mouth but he’d do anything for his family, his VC Warriors brothers/sister included. I’m looking forward to reading Bonnie and Bishop’s story next and can’t wait for Orjyll to get what’s coming for him, I don’t think he has any idea what lengths they’ll all go to see him suffer for all the pain he’s caused and to rid the world of at least some of the evil working against them. I’d definitely recommend this book, series and author to everyone.
FLOVED Viktor! If you haven’t checked out this awesome series by Teresa Gabelman, you really should! If you are a fan of steamy, action packed, and hilarious Paranormal Romance, pick up Damon (The Protectors Series Book 1) now and buckle up because it is a wild ride!
Paranormal Protectors will make you swoon
I love this series so hard Viktor and his brother Bishop are brought in to help the VC Warriors fight the evil plaguing the town. With the uprise in paranormal crimes, they are sticking around because they believe demons and dark witches are involved. Whilst dark witches are their forte, they have connections to those that can help them fight demons too.
One night Viktor decides to go out for dinner and instantly spots a beautiful woman who sparks his attention. With his mind set to take her home and bed her, he’s disappointed when a man beats him to her table. The man is trying to convince the woman he’s a Vampire and Viktor is happy to see she’s not falling for his story and approaches the table.
Lacey just wants to do her research into Vampires so she can get enough information so she can write her book. What she never expected was to meet a Vampire who just wouldn’t leave her thoughts. As she’s pulled further into the paranormal world, Viktor questions himself and the dangers to Lacey
Can’t wait for the next Protector book and the next mate one
Teresa has another hit with the latest bada$$ warrior. Viktor is a Dark Guardian helping the VC Warriors with the latest problem of witches and demons controlling vampires and causing big problems. All Lacey wants to do is gather information for a book she wants to write about vampires and help her dad pay off medical bills when she runs into Viktor and it’s instant attraction for both. The rest of the Warriors and their mates are also involved which is always great in every book. Dark Guardians Charger is introduced and you can already tell he is just as kicka$$ as the others. Well written,sexy,twist and turns,and emotional.
Lacey works at her father’s tavern, is a legal hacker, and is writing a paranormal romance book. She meets Viktor when she is doing research for her book. Viktor is a Dark Guardian but helping the Warriors. He feels something for Lacey but is afraid because she’s a human. Lacey is a strong woman and speaks her mind and not afraid to go after what she wants. Someone in the compound has been feeding the enemy information and it could cause them to lose one of the Warriors.
This is one of my favorite series. They always make you laugh but keep you on the edge of your seat. Can’t wait to see what happens next.
Best book of the Year!
As with most of Teresa Gabelman books. This book has humor, action, and loads of VC Warriors. It is so suspenseful. We are meeting some new characters and spending time with some old friends. I love the way Lacy and Viktor meet. If you love a dramatic book that reaches out and grabs you, that makes your heart skip a beat, do not hesitate. Grab this book and start reading. Best book of the year for me. From a True Fan… Pam James
