Not only does VC leader, Sloan Murphy, have to keep the peace between the human and vampire race, but he also wrangles VC Warriors in his spare time. It’s a job that could drive a saint insane, and Sloan is no saint, but insane he may be. While his Warriors find mates, he swears he will not follow in their footsteps.

Becky Spencer, his new secretary who he reluctantly employs, is set to threaten every stoic promise he’s made. With an instant attraction that is hard to deny, she fits into his world with confident ease.

Even though Becky has sworn off men after her nasty divorce, she can’t help the desire the sexy and serious Sloan Murphy stirs in her. It isn’t until she sees how devoted he is to his job and the Warriors under his command, that her lusty feelings turn into more. Working in close quarters, they both fight the pull that grows with each passing minute.

Who will win, the secretary, the Warrior, or an attraction that just won’t go away?

Let me just catch my breath. I couldn't put down book #9 and spent a wonderful Sunday evening reading to my heart's delight. This book made me cry, laugh, I was bewildered by the perfect cast of characters but best of all, awed by the beauty in seeing Sloan and Becky find their way to each other. Wow 🔥

WOW again - this VC Warrior Protector series is something I'm in awe of. The talent of Glynnis Campbell is amazing & to be able to keep this whole series going & still keeping it fresh is amazing in it's self ! The interaction off each warrior sometimes leaves me in stitches & I am so happy I stumbled upon the first book & have been able to keep my "habit" [of the VC Warrior Protector Series] ongoing. The storyline is different for each VC Warrior & whatever he has to overcome to be with "his" mate. It's about blending families really. Do yourself a favour & start at #1 & don't stop buying & reading.

OMG! I, too am a huge fan of Teresa's Protector series. I've enjoyed reading y'all's reviews! I agree with what has already been said but feel I need to add my two cents worth! Teresa's writing is truly a gift. She writes these characters with such familiarity and love. The love and protection they feel for each other is unmatched even though they sometimes seem goofy and aloof. I love the snarky bantering! Sloan didn't disappoint at all and was totally worth the wait!
It was neat seeing him accept "fate" and to see just how the other's bet on Sloan's love life. I laughed so hard through so much of this book. Reading all of the other books in this series, I knew Sloan would be just as addicting as the rest! A hardheaded, strong man who has just as much right to love and happiness as the rest, even though he thinks he can do without it. It will be hard waiting for Blaze and Steve. Steve.....what can be said about him? His innocence is cute and now that he has his "power"....it should be something else watching him develop. I hope Leda shows up! I love the way Teresa has interwoven The Protector's and her "Lee County Wolves" series! Yay to Steve in that one! Poor Sloan, he just can't catch a break no matter where his warriors are! If you're looking for some AWESOME books to read this winter, give these two series a try! You won't be disappointed but you'll plow right through them because they're hard to put down, and you'll be wanting more! Thanks again, Teresa. You're amazing and we, your followers, couldn't be more pleased!

La historia me a gustado pero esperaba mas acción tomando en cuenta el estatus de Sloan. He disfrutado del libro pero esperaba más de la heroína menos damisela en necesidad de rescate. Espero que en Blaze Katrina nos muestre lo fuerte que somos las mujeres.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it, but Sloan's story should have been so much more ...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 October 2016

Ever since I discovered The Protectors Series I have loved the character of Sloan. Head of the VC Warriors, he is a formidable character in every sense of the word. He is, along with Slade, one of the strongest and unattainable characters in the series; as such I wondered how difficult he would be for Teresa Gabelman to write. And while I absolutely loved, loved, loved this book; this is is Sloan Murphy we're talking about which demands it be something pretty spectacular.

And therein lay the disappointment for me. This book was no different to any other warrior's story. In fact comparing Sloan's story to Slade's which spanned at least three books, it was barely there at all, sharing around half the page space with the start of Blaze's story. I feel so guilty and treacherous for saying it, but I wanted so much more for Sloan's story' more than any other warrior, but instead it actually feels like he got less.

I know Teresa Gabelman changed her plans and wrote Sloan earlier than planned at the demand of her adoring and faithful fans, but having read it, I'm not sure it was the right thing to do. It felt so rushed. Becky, Sloan's love interest, is only barely introduced at the end of the previous story (Jax), and then we're right into Sloan's book and, well ... it all felt to damn easy and contrived; Sloan turned to mush. Every other warrior has had significant obstacles to overcome before winning his mate, but Sloan had a walk in the park, whatever tension or drama threatened was quickly and easily resolved denying the action that we all love so much. You could argue that it was easy for him because he's the boss, but for such a significant and loved character he deserved a better, stronger and more involved story.

However, I did say I loved this book, and I did. I read it in record time; unable to put it down for too long. So it does get 5 stars for sheer enjoyment and engagement. I just wish it was about another warrior and we still had Sloan to come.

Blaze looks to be the next warrior we hear from and I know Teresa Gabelman has lots more projects for other series, but just as Sloan's story was padded out with Blaze, I hope there's a hefty helping of Sloan and Becky in forthcoming novels, because they deserve it.

I also want to see something good for Steve, because he deserves it too.
