Guardian 4 - Holy Smokes
|
Holy Smokes (fourth and last book in the series)I'm Aisling Grey - but you can call me 'frustrated.'The man of my dreams - uber-sexy Drake Vireo, wyvern of the green dragons - has finally decided to make an honest woman of me. That is, if we ever make it to the wedding at the same time! Being left at the altar may have cooled my jets, but not my passion...a good thing when Drake disappears and it's up to me to find him.Most brides just have in-laws to worry about. Me? I have warring dragons, ticked-off demon lords, eternal damnation, and a mage who wants to challenge me for an otherworldly position I don't even want. Good thing I have Jim, my doggie-demon at my side. He's never let me down - yet...
A reader reviewFavorite line: 'Yeah, and maybe monkeys will fly out of my butt, but I'm not going to buy any bananas on the chance they will.' (p. 112)Book four in the Guardian series is all about the drama involved in Aisling Grey and Drake Vireo's wedding. The two are trying to officially tie the knot, while fighting a dragon war and trying to find a way to free Aisling from life as the blue dragon's mate. Add to that family drama, ancient evils and the imps from Hell and you've got a great novel.Aisling is hilarious. She hasn't lost her appeal or her snarkiness.I've noticed that with series books authors tend to change their characters as the number of books pile up. Characters make subtle changes and before you know it the character you met in book one (that strong decisive woman) no longer exists. She is replaced in book ten with a whiney, indecisive character. That does not happen here.Let me share a secret - I read this series for Aisling's smart mouth and bad decisions and for her demon dog, Jim. I love their relationship almost as much as I love Aisling and Drake's. He's the kind of hero that makes you pant and wish your book was a magical portal so that you can yank him out of the book and into your bed, onto your wash machine, out into the rain...I'm seriously looking forward to the action to come. I have my thoughts about major events to come, but I won't share so as to not ruin the book for you. But I do believe that major characters from previous books will be placed in recently evacuated positions. Some serious mojo will be performed and Aisling will begin to lose it as she gets larger with her pregnancy.
