When the hero refers to the heroine as "creepy", it makes it really hard to eventually turn around and love him, but Meljean Brook does an impressive job with that in the book Demon Bound, 4th in the Guardian series.Jake Hawkins is the novice Guardian that, up until now, was mostly comic relief. He...
Jake is one of the younger guardian angels, who was turned during the Vietnam War. Since he's still fairly young, Jake is a little more enthusiastic than the older guardians.

One of my favorites in the series so far, I adored this book.

I love the mythology being introduced, but what I found truly interesting is that the heroine wasn't especially likeable to start with, and I kind of wondered what the hero saw in her. But as t...
Meljean Brooks delievers another emotionally satisfying Guardian story. However, I feel like I have to give it "lower marks" because the previous two books were so amazing. The story of Jake and Alice has touching moments and is full of adventure, but it just didn't have the character development ...
