"The voice is a powerful thing…

Russell Leonard is a centuries-old Guardian who’s lost faith in his purpose. So when he’s charged with procuring the first female Guardian in over two centuries, he can only hope it’s the red-headed beauty who’s been haunting his dreams for months. And if it is, he intends to claim her as his. But when he finds his dream woman, Annabelle is mute and bears no Guardian’s Mark.
He soon realizes she’s been tainted by an ancient evil. Russell must somehow release the secrets trapped within this delicate soul to help her tap into the only weapon powerful enough to silence a millennia-old demon—her voice."

I adored this book! Better than the first, I found myself emerged as if I never left. 

The plot of the book follows the first but slightly different. I loved that the plot faced a big obstacle, like communicating. LOL! At times, it was funny cause Russell was doing his darnest just to communicate with her. He knew her yet he could figure out how to speak with her. This plot flows well along with the characters. Both Russell and Annabelle both share a dark past that haunts then both. Yet, they come together strongly facing it together.

As you can tell from my plot description that the love interest is just as good. There are many moments in this book that placed a goofy smile on my face. I loved watching these two characters who have been fighting darkness on their own for so long, rely on each other. It's awesome to see them love each other and even sacrifice the only love they found just to protect each other. Absolutely selfless.

All the characters of the book have grown. The reader even sees the characters from the first book moving on slowly in their life. The author also works in some clues as to who we can look forward to having their adventure. I adore watching each of the guys and ladies, find the one for them.

Awaited is an highly recommended sequel. Faced with more obstacles, the team is getting larger in number as well as in love. They rely on each other and always have each other backs. Awaited is a well constructed story that will blows readers away!

I give it 5 BITES!

Happy Reading!

"Salvation comes with a price. . .
Bound by the blood contract his human mother signed four centuries ago, half-demon, David Sadler, must obey his demonic Master's order to capture fifteen-year-old Jessica Hanks. But as he learns more about her, he realizes she may be the key to freedom from his dark enslavement.
The only obstacle-Jessica's distractingly beautiful Guardian, Rebeka Abbott. He must not give in to their steamy chemistry, or he will lose his humanity. But fresh off a quarter millennia of sensory deprivation as punishment for not retrieving his last target, he may not be able to resist temptation long enough to save what's left of his human soul."

This book right here is why I love to read. It's exciting, fun, and just the way I like it.

It begins with an awesome plot. I'm a sucker for the plot where you a HOT, lonely guy, fighting evil yet searching for his mate. His alpha and strong, and needs that girl by his side to make him complete. I don't know why but this plot always grabs me. I like that David faced so many trials. The plot is twisted with great action. The plot is adequate enough to satisfy everything I yearn for in a book.

The love interest is amazing. It begins rough and lots of secrets. OMG! The secrets! All I kept thinking is," NO! NOT AGAIN! THEY MUST BE TOGETHER"  Their love endures much but come amazingly together at the end.  It's amazing how quickly I became invested in the characters and their relationship.  Their chemistry is off the charts from the start. Once their eyes meet, you know your in for an awesome story!

Now, all the characters are successfully well put. I like that each character has a distinct voice. Each character is shaped well that I can really know them as if they are real. I could easily picture myself in that group. They each have loyal friendship that goes beyond anything we see. It's trusting and safe.

Wasteland is a success! Taunt and emotional, Wasteland lures the reader into a dark world unlike anything I've read. The rich narrative brings out many emotions for the reader. Better action and a good ending, it's no wonder I had to read the next book after this one. It's addictive!

I give it 5 BITES!

Happy Reading!
