About this ebook

Book Three of The Guardians Series

2022 Winner, Daphne du Maurier Award for Excellence in Mystery/Suspense

After Ellie Broussard saves Sean McDougal’s son from drowning, she walks away, unwilling to involve herself with the rakish Irishman and his charming boy.  Ellie has suffered a devastating loss, and her world is one of chosen isolation and calculated vengeance.  She has only one focus: to find the monster that stole her child and turn his world to ash.    

Sean can relate to Ellie’s suffering.  Having lost his wife to cancer, his sole focus has become raising his boy, and love…well, love can take a long walk.  He’s in Louisiana to locate a cache of stolen art, and even if he’s taken aback—and reluctantly intrigued—by the mysterious and chilly Ellie Broussard, he knows better than to tumble down that rabbit hole.

But when they’re thrown together on assignment to recover the cache, Sean and Ellie have no choice but to put aside their mutual misgivings and work side by side.  To share; to trust; to discover they are not as separate as they appear. And as Ellie’s deadly hunt approaches its culmination, they must risk everything they hold dear to stop a murderer who is readying his next strike and to save an orphaned girl whose only hope lies in their willingness to defy the darkness and step into the light…

Don’t miss the third installment of this intense, suspenseful romance series.

This was my second book by author Hope Anika and it was another great read. Once again, it was well written, action packed and had great characters and storylines. I look forward to reading her next book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Love, love, love this book. It is totally worth the wait and is such a satisfying conclusion to Sean's story. I still wish we could have more interaction with the other characters - maybe the author will do a let bit of a reunion novella at Rafe's wedding. Us readers who are addicted to epilogues can only dream. I seriously hope the next story is on Max and is in New Orleans - the bayou added an extra element of menace and atmosphere to the books.

A truly emotional journey. The twists & turns will keep you thoroughly engaged in this intriguingly suspenseful & compelling tale. When you reach the surprising climax, it may just blow your mind, making this more of an exciting & captivating read. If the enjoyment of reading this story isn’t enough to tantalize you to keep reading the series (which I know it absolutely will be), the added intriguing hints to Max Prescott’s story will certainly draw you toward the next book for sure.
