The Best of the Best: Warriors Heroes in Romance!

Even in alternate worlds where vampires and shifters roam freely, there are always a group of men (sometimes including women!) that are considered the best of the best. In the our world, we have the men and women in service who put their lives in danger everyday and these books aren’t much different from that. These characters are either skilled in combat, have a great amount of knowledge about something very important or even possess special abilities that make them coveted by their group. They are considered an elite gang of warriors who have the means to protect those around them, and ultimately, the world.

This month, I’ve picked a few titles that feature heroes who are part of an elite group of warriors so you can see for yourself just how tough you have to be to be part of the team.

ARCHANGEL’S ENIGMA by Nalini Singh

ARCHANGEL’S ENIGMA
ARCHANGEL’S ENIGMA

Naasir is one of Raphael’s Seven. If I’m being honest, I wasn’t expecting much from Naasir before I read this book, but I was pleasantly surprised by how intriguing and alluring his character became. You’ll have to read his book to find out what he’s capable of!

About: Naasir is the most feral of the powerful group of vampires and angels known as the Seven, his loyalty pledged to the Archangel Raphael. When rumors surface of a plot to murder the former Archangel of Persia, now lost in the Sleep of the Ancients, Naasir is dispatched to find him. For only he possesses the tracking skills required - those more common to predatory animals than to man.

Enlisted to accompany Naasir, Andromeda, a young angelic scholar with dangerous secrets is fascinated by his nature - at once playful and brilliant, sensual and brutal. As they race to find the Sleeping archangel before it's too late, Naasir will force her to question all she knows...and tempt her to walk into the magnificent, feral darkness of his world. But first they must survive an enemy vicious enough to shatter the greatest taboo of the angelic race and plunge the world into a screaming nightmare...

MIDNIGHT HUNTER by Kait Ballenger

MIDNIGHT HUNTER
MIDNIGHT HUNTER

The Execution Underground is an elite group tasked with protecting humanity. Dr. Shane Grey is the resident geek of the team and his story proves to be the most unique so far.

About: Hunters of the supernatural, THE EXECUTION UNDERGROUND are an elite group tasked with protecting humanity… but can dark temptation destroy good intentions?

Occult specialist and witch hunter Dr. Shane Grey is called upon to investigate a string of crimes that bear all the hallmarks of black magic. But he can't take on this daunting assignment for the Execution Underground alone. He'll need the help of Vera Sanders, a witch with a dark past—and a woman who disturbs him as much as she intrigues him.

Vera is determined to ignore the dangerous chemistry between herself and Shane so she can prove her loyalty to his cause; otherwise she risks the wrath of the Execution Underground once again. If she can't make Shane trust her, they won't stand a chance in hell of defeating the evil that's terrorizing their city. No easy task, considering old habits die hard…and Vera may be the very person responsible for luring Shane into a killer's trap.

TAMING HER WOLF by Dee Carney

TAMING HER WOLF
TAMING HER WOLF

Fire Creek is a sanctuary for physician Kim Sharpe but when things get heated between her and Brick, Brick requires Kim’s help to save him from his pack. This one is a little bit different from my other recommendations but the fact that Brick’s life is threatened by his own pack, I couldn’t help but want to include this because of the interesting twist.

About: For disgraced physician Kim Sharpe, Fire Creek was supposed to be a sanctuary, a place to hide from media scrutiny and the public eye. But when a group of wolf shifters break into her clinic and demand she save the life of a packmate, her serene world unravels. And when the wolf dies despite Kim's efforts, she's dragged into a hunt she can't control, led by a man she desperately wants to understand.

All shifters live with their beasts, but Chris "Brick" Preston's is dangerously close to the surface. And it wants Kim. Sex keeps the beast sated for now, but unless Kim can help him find a more permanent solution, Brick risks becoming a feral, banished—or put down—by his pack.

With each incredibly intense encounter, Brick and Kim grow closer. But time is not on their side. When Kim is faced with betraying the pack in order to save Brick's life, the consequences may be more than they can survive.
