  • Quick, fun read...

    I’m a fan of both authors, especially MacKinnon so I had to check this out. Thankfully, I was able to borrow it from my local library. It was a fun read, interesting, mostly fast-paced, full of sexual tension, mystery, some mythology and aquatic life. If you enjoy slow-burn RH and intriguing, paranormal reads, I expect you’d enjoy this one. May not read on in this series, as I feel I’ve got the gist of it from this installment. But an enjoyable enough listen to keep me company at work—no complaints. Overall, 3.5 stars. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Audio: The narrator sounded fine—and that’s fairly high praise coming from me. I cannot listen to most people read at all. However, throughout almost the entire book, there was a bit of background noise. Sorta like lowkey static. It’s mild but … most audio productions I listen to don’t have this, so I worry that the production team could’ve done a better job for the authors & their artwork.

    We have Macey who was kidnapped, but yet wants all the guys. She is having a hard time believing everything that is said to her, but yet she follows along. I feel that it needed more action, more knowing about characters. I will read the rest because it is interesting and I want to see what happens.

    This is the first book in the Seven Wardens series. It took a few chapters to get into it but now I can’t wait to read the next one. Macey is a princess among the kelpies. She and her brothers are living on Earth. This story follows an old legend about seven wardens that must work together to save the world. Lots of action, danger and Heat among the main characters. I’m definitely looking forward to the next part of the series. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    This is the first book in the Seven Wardens series and only the very beginning of a multi book series. It's a reverse harem supernatural romance. This series is filled with Scottish folklore, supernatural things like wraiths, shifters, mages, etc. You're introduced to Macey a Kelpie shifter who is on land for an adventure unfortunately her father blocked her powers and send her two older brothers with her. Her adventure begins when Camdan kidnaps her, where she then meets Flint and Jared. She learns she's one of the seven wardens, Jared, FIint and Camdan are also wardens, and they must find the other three to fulfill the Prophecy. Macey is unsure of her life and not sure what's expected of her but as she bonds with her three men you start to see a change in her.

    First, this book continues on, so no HEA, with that being said... I really liked this adventure 7 Wardens book, loved the romance and the characters and plot. I was highly disappointed in the fact that the book ended! It is a must read, now I have to be patient and wait for the next book to come out to find out what happens.

    I don’t think I have ever read about kelpies - but they are awesome! Macey is a Kelpie princess who ends of accidentally/on purpose kidnapped :) Macey is a strong character. I liked that she doesn’t immediately buy into the prophecy the guys tell her, and questioned everything. The guys are great too. Each is unique and brings something to the story. I can’t wait to see what happens next :)

    Incredible start to a funny, sexy and adventurous series! I love that a glossary is given at the beginning so you know what things are as soon as you come across them in the book. I am excited to read the series as it develops.
