Publisher Description
When everyone's existence depends on the lies they tell, trust doesn't come easy.
Ivy’s neighbors have a secret. They aren’t human. But Ivy has a secret, too. She knows. As long as everyone keeps quiet, she’s happy working as a P.I. by day and chillaxing with her BFF Florian, a vampire, by night. When a routine pickup drops her in the middle of a murder, her two worlds collide. While Florian knows how to throw a punch, deep down he's a softie. His idea of scary? Running out of hair product. It’s time Ivy faced facts. Even with a vampire on stand-by, one gal can only kick so many asses.
For help, she must put her faith in others. A human, who might just be the one. A demon, who will, for a price, open the doors to her heritage. And a werewolf, who wants to protect her from herself.
Torn between these men, Ivy must tread carefully, because one wants her heart, one wants her body, and one wants her dead.
Customer Reviews
Guarded by Carmen Fox will draw you in from the first pages
I just love, love, love phantasy stories with some erotic elements mixed in (always a bonus). I won’t go into plot details or even character descriptions as you have to read this story for yourself. I will say that I’m so glad I picked out this book! It’s a real page-turner and you’ll definitely spend a few relaxing evenings with it. Steamy scenes throughout the story will keep you entertained and wanting more.
This author did a wonderful job: there are complex characters, unexpected plot twists and mystical creatures along with some magic. Her writing style is easy to follow and entertaining.
I would love to read more books from this series!
Great book
Great character development with an interesting story.
Phenomenal read by a phenomenal writer...
I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review. This story is definitely not for anyone under the age of 18.
I am beyond excited that I got to read this. Let me just start by saying that Carmen Fox is one of the best writers I've seen in a long time. There were close to no grammatical errors in the entire story. This has been extremely uncommon in most stories that I've read lately. Major bonus for me.
As for the story it was such a great story. It had the perfect balance between story and sexual experiences and tension. Everything was described in detail but not an excessive amount. Ivy was portrayed as a strong and independent heroine. I absolutely loved that she had such a struggle with her sexual desire (also known in this book as motive).
Another bonus to the story was that although I was able to figure out some things within the plot there were a few that were tacked on to those items that I didn't guess.
Overall I definitely recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a paranormal book with a sexual aspect built in. I cannot wait to read volume 2.
