What a series this is turning out to be! The one thing I hadn’t expected is for one of the pairs to break up – yet, when I read the blurb for this book it became clear that the warder Jackson would lose his hearth. What a traumatic experience, and one which normally doesn’t end well at all, or so we are told. With the strength of the bond seen between warder and hearth in the first three books, it surprised me it was even possible.

Jackson, as the warder, tries to stay strong. The problem is that he tells the story, so his pain became really clear. I was truly pulled into his pain, and it was so well written that I suffered with him, even though I didn’t know him that well at the beginning of the story. His journey is amazing and, even thought he is still a gruff bear on the outside at the end of it, I really came to like him.

Raphael, the kyrie, follows a logic all his own and I loved that. In a sense, that makes him the true equal of Jackson, and that is new in this series. Exhausting, because it takes him a while to adapt, but good and somewhat refreshing. There is a lot more to Raphael than meets the eye, and he gradual unveiling of his secrets as Jackson gets to know him is nicely done.

This is a powerful story of supernatural forces and what happens when they collide. The cast of characters is great, and it was wonderful to see some old friends from the first three books reappear. At the same time, there are new people as well, and it will be interesting to see what happens to this group in the next few books. I love that there is lots of room to maneuver, since that will keep the tension up and the surprises coming. A great book if you’re looking for a touch of the supernatural, combined with some great emotions and a true journey of discovery for the main characters.

A word of warning. This book is just one in a series of "Warder/Hearth" novels and if this is the first one your reading it will be confusing. My Second favorite of the series. 3.75 Stars ( )

Raphael is probably my favorite character in this series. Mysterious and a bit scary. Jackson is kind of emo and flails around, but Raphael wants him so I have to like him too. ( )

This is book 4 in the series and I have to admit I skipped book 2 and 3, but simply since there are too many book out there to read. This series is a mix of paranormal or comedy, even if dealing with demons and hunters, it has a light tone, mostly due to the “cute” behaviours of the “hearts”. An heart is the mate of a warder, a warder is someone who protects human from demons. A warder is gay and his heart is everything to him, lover, friend, housekeeper and counsellor, so you can understand to task is not easy at all. Jackson’s heart, Frank, thought the same and decided he was no more up to the task and to make it clear to his partner he cheated on him. Jackson didn’t take the betrayal so well, actually I think he was more upset by it than by the consequence of losing his heart. He is now wandering the streets with a brooding attitude and maybe he is a little too careless. Until the day he meets the demon hunter Raphael.

Raphael is not human, and he is a step up above a demon but not really much. Jackson decides that having a relationship with him it would the right punishment for his faults (he is in that stage when he thinks he is the one to blame for everything), and in a way this is a great offense for Raphael. Raphael is basically a good guy, and he is really in love with Jackson, but he also understand that Jackson is not ready to love again so soon. So he decides to play the bad guy for Jackson, someone Jackson can use without having second thoughts. But in the long, Raphael too will get tired of this game, since the only thing he wants is to build a real home with his lover.

I quite enjoyed this romance, I found nice the touch of funny moments intermixed with the adventure, even if, truth be told, the threats were never really so dangerous to make me worry for the heroes. And maybe I have a little complain, I think Jackson spent a little too much time, almost half the book, mourning for his bad fate (since really, I don’t think he was really mourning for the loss of Frank), instead of opening his eyes and realizing he had a good substitute, actually a better one, right there, ready for him. So when he accepts Raphael in his life, the story is almost at the end, and we had little time to enjoy them as a couple.
