"Marked" [Eternal Guardians Series, Book 1] by Elisabeth Naughton
My Book Summary : Acacia’s (Casey) life and everything she knew herself to be completely changes when Theron, the leader of the Argonauts (an elite group of guardians that defend the immortal realm against the threats of the Underworld), comes into her life in the most unexpected way. Now she has to deal with the fact that she has a heritage that she wasn’t originally aware of, the fact that she doesn’t have long left to live, and a ‘man’ who she just can’t get out of her mind.
Theron never expected Casey was the girl he needs to turn over for the prophesy to come true. Casey is also someone he never expects, as she has and is all of the things he would ever want in a female. But duty and honor to his people must come first! However, will his honor and duty come first ... even if that means giving up the one woman who might just happen to be his soul mate?
My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars!! This story takes myths to a whole new level!! Casey is a feisty, opinionated, kind-hearted woman, while Theron is an arrogant, strong-willed, passionate man. Reading about the two of them together it’s like you can see the sparks flying off of the page! The twists in this book are really unexpected and even when the book leaves you hanging in some instances you still aren’t disappointed! Plus, the side stories about the other characters lure you in and make you sooo very curious as to what will happen next in this series!
I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys a non-typical fantasy drama!!
Book Teaser(s) :
The man turned toward Acacia, who'd somehow managed to scramble back onto the counter. "Casey, come down."
"Oh, my God. Nick. Jesus Christ, what the hell---?"
The blond's big hands plucked Acacia right off the counter before Theron had a chance to stop him, and he set her on her feet in the middle of the store. The man grasped her shoulders and held firm. "Take a breath, Casey. More will be coming."
"More? What do you---?"
Then, almost as if she'd just realized the two of them weren't alone, her eyes flashed to Theron, understanding dawning in their violet depths. And for the first time since he'd met her, he realized how similar those eyes were to the king's.
"Those things," she said. "I saw them that night with you. Outside XScream."
The man she'd called Nick glanced up sharply. "You brought them here? To her?"
"No," Theron said, shoving his weapon back into its scabbard at his back. Now he was the bad guy? Fuck that. "I was sent to protect her." ~ within Chapter 12
