Wynn Powe the witch (see Stone Cold Lover) flies into Chicago
seeking her missing brother Bran; this generation of her family chosen as a
warden instead of her because gender is a key Guild criterion. Controlling her acrimony, Wynn seeks the help
of a nearby Guardian. Instead in the
upscale Lake Forest suburb, Wynn finds the rocky remains of the Guardian blown
into smithereens by she assumes agents of the Order of Eternal Darkness.
Knox arrives as the replacement Guardian in order to keep Wynn
safe from the enemy who tries to kill her.
He also recognizes this Warden is his soul mate, but knows there could
be nasty repercussions if he pursues his heart’s desire. Believing she is a temporary fill-in until
fresh testosterone meat is selected as the Warden and mocking herself for
turning mushy towards her Guardian, Wynn struggles with her feelings for Knox.
The third Gargoyle romantic urban fantasy (see Heart of Stone) is
a fresh paranormal entry due to the acerbic lead female amusingly (to readers
that is and not her Guardian) rips pounds of flesh and other “skin” from
family, friends, enemy and her beloved.
Christine Warren authors a brisk thrilling tale starring Wynn the
winning witch who deploys sarcasm as her weapon of first choice especially
towards her befuddled Guardian.
