4 AT LAST!!! stars

This is the fourth book in the Dark Protectors series, and the long awaited coming together of Katie and Jordan. I’ve been waiting for Katie and Jordan’s story since book 1, and was so excited to finally get my hands on it!

Alpha shifter, Jordan took Katie in as an abandoned four-year-old when her own shifter abilities came in and completely freaked out her foster family. She has been in love with him for as long as she can remember, but he has always treated her like a little sister – although we know from his conversations with the Kayrs boys that he wants her but is giving her a chance to grow up and experience life so that she can figure out what it is she truly wants.

This book picks up ten years after the end of the last book, and Katie has been off hunting werewolves, becoming quite the badass! She has been living with Virus 27 which has left her unable to shift, and when she learns that Jordan was infected during an attack, with potential madness and death imminent, she will stop at nothing to help him.

I knew these two would be awesome when they finally got together, and I wasn’t wrong. Their chemistry is sensational! They know how they feel, they know how the other feels, there’s just so much that’s been standing in their way. Jordan is reluctant, but Katie is determined and it all unfolds beautifully!

The sex is seriously hot, the romance is intense and gorgeously swoony, and now that it’s finally their time they embrace it with everything they have.

“You’re better than any dream I’ve ever had.”
His smile was slow, sexy, devastating. “You are every dream I’ve ever had”

But their love story is still complicated by so many external factors – the virus, war with the Kurgens, and a danger from the past who firmly has Katie and Jordan in his sights. And they have to be willing to risk it all in order to claim their future together.

It’s exciting and emotional, and I was enthralled from start to finish!

I love that so much time has passed since the last book because it allows a lot of character development to have occurred in that time. The couples are all well settled into mated/married life, Garrett is now 10 years old and growing into his fangs and is a mini-alpha in his own right, and Janie is 16 years old and entering the dating world – I’m still loving her story, it’s building to be something epic!

The war continues, there are some big developments in the overarching storyline,

Spoiler
Jase!!!!!
and I can’t wait to continue on with this series.

I loved it – 4 stars

Just a note – make sure you read these books in order! There is so much going on, and so much of the context and character development would be missed by just diving in halfway through. Seriously! I’ve seen reviews by people who picked up one of the middle books and then complained about not understanding what’s going on. Don’t do it!
