Logan
Calhoun is the last full-blooded Paladin, the future leader of a race of
immortal warrior angels. The heavy responsibility of continuing the Paladin
line falls to him, and the last thing he should do is get involved with a
human. Then fate throws Jessica Waters, a homicide detective who doesn't
believe in fate or divine intervention, into his path. Her devotion lies in her
Glock and a good set of handcuffs. Like Logan, she's a warrior for her people,
and she awakens within him something he'd never thought he'd feel. But she's
also as human as they come...Review:

strikes again with another great story about her Paladin warriors, Immortal warrior
angels living in our world, fighting the demons and other evil supernatural
beings that are roaming our earth and preying on humans. The series continues
with the next leader of the Paladin council, Logan, finally coming in to his
own and finding the woman of his dreams.
Logan is dealing with the consequences of the
small rebellion he was part of in the last book, working with former paladin Roland
to save his woman. Logan is feeling
bored with his duties and the sudden lack of action on the evil front, when
suddenly a gorgeous woman crosses his path on his hunt for a succubus. When the
sexy woman pulls a gun on him and his partner, things become a bit
complicated. She’s not just a sexy woman;
she’s a homicide detective on the hunt herself.
Putting her in a trance he delivers her back to her bed, no matter how
fascinated with her he is. Sadly, fate
has decided to play tricks on him.
When Roland is taken in for questioning about a
crime, Logan runs into his sexy detective at the local police station, where, of
course, she’s been assigned to investigate Roland and solve the murder he’s
suspected of.
Jessica knows immediately there is something
strange about Logan, but she is seriously drawn to him. When she discovers he’s friends with Roland, she becomes suspicious of him and his motives.
Following up on her leads on the case keeps her running across the same
path as Logan and as they spend more
time together it gets harder and harder for them to resist the heat that draws them together. Giving into the passion between
them slowly leads to trust and they decide to work together to
reach their combined goals. Logan is forced to explain what he really his
and the truth about their world to Jessica and sadly she decides that he's
crazy.
The passionate natures of both Jessica and Logan
lead to some heated moments both in the bedroom and in their partnership. The sharp wit and sexy emotional turmoil
leads to some crazy fights and great makeup sex. When Jessica accepts the truth
and embraces the new weirdness of her world, things move forward by leaps and
bounds until they finally uncover the evil that is after her and uncover the betrayer in her midst.
You will laugh and cry through this story and
the end will leave you wondering what the heck happened. I cried so hard for a few chapters that my
family thought something serious was wrong with me. But in the end Tes pulls everything together
for a fantastic HEA. Logan and Jessica
are awesome and when they come together the combination is explosive
to the extreme. Making you wish you
could have been there to see all the sparks in person. I’m looking forward to the next novels
because there was some great build up in this book with details from other characters. I have one main question… who is the
mysterious red-headed woman? :)
