Paladin warriors are entrusted with the responsibility of
keeping the world of mankind safe from the world of the
Others. In order to do so, they are granted the ability to
die, only to be brought back again and again to fight
another day. However, each time they die, so does a bit of
their humanity, until the only choice left is to kill them
for good, before they can unleash their destruction.
Blake Trahern is a Paladin warrior walking a fine line
with his humanity. He wants nothing more than to disappear
and die on his own terms. When an old friend is murdered,
Blake takes it upon himself to protect his daughter. It's
been twelve years since Blake saw Brenna Nichols. He
walked away from her once and he vows to do it again, just
as soon as he's finished ensuring her life is safe, even
if it means giving his own.
Brenna can't believe the boy her father had taken in years
ago was back in her life, more of a man than she ever
imagined. Even more unbelievable are the things he tells
her about her father. Things her father kept from her. No
matter what he tells her though, or how far fetched,
nothing can quench the desire Brenna's always felt for
Blake. As things heat up between them, so does Blake's
investigation. He discovers he's on the trail of a traitor
among the Paladin's. Going after the traitor means putting
Brenna in the middle of danger. All it will take is one
final battle for Blake to lose what's left of his
humanity, destroying everything, including the woman he
loves.
DARK DEFENDER is the second book in Alexis Morgan's
thrilling Paladin's of Darkness series. Ms. Morgan opens
up a whole new world that'll keep you captivated. Blake's
struggle with his love for Brenna and his battle to hold
onto his humanity will keep you glued to the pages. As a
first time reader of this series, I had no problems
picking up this book and getting caught up in the mystery
of the series. The underlined mystery of the blue stones
has me intrigued and I can't wait for the next addition to
this series to learn more about them. For something fresh
and new, definitely pick this book up the next time you're
at the book store.
As a Paladin warrior, Blake Trahern fights and dies again
and again to keep mankind safe from the Others. Sensing his
humanity slipping away with each battle, he retreats from
the world...until the one person who still has a claim on
his soul needs his help. It's been twelve years since Blake
vanished from Brenna Nichols's life, years that have turned
her from a love-struck teen into a headstrong, sensual
woman. He'll fearlessly give his life to protect her -- yet
he dare not risk his heart.
Brenna is stunned
by Blake's reappearance, and by a shocking discovery about
her father. Everything she has ever believed is thrown into
question -- everything except the desire that Blake still
ignites. But as they search together for a traitor among the
Paladins, danger looms: the next battle could tip Blake into
madness, destroying his life, his soul...and the only woman
he has ever loved.
