"very entertaining paranormal romance"
Centuries ago, Alejandro was a novice Guardian and Irena
was his instructor. They grew close and there was a
promise of a deep, long-lasting relationship until a
bargain with a demon tore them apart. Now that Alejandro
and Irena are forced to work together, will they be able to
overcome their differences and be together? DEMON FORGED is a very entertaining paranormal romance,
which left this reader emotionally drained-- but in a good
way. The characters are multi-faceted, the plot is action-
packed, and the ending brought a tear to my eye. Irena is
a straight-forward, no-nonsense, kind of Guardian--she sees
mostly black and white. Whereas, Alejandro is more
diplomatic, because he can see the gray areas in life, and
that everything is not as clear-cut as it might first
appear. Irena and Alejandro have to work through the
emotions and turmoil caused by the demon, as well as,
forgive themselves and each other in order to be together.
Many of the characters from previous stories make an
appearance in this one, and one, in particular, makes a
heartbreaking, self-sacrificing decision. Needless to say,
I'm on pins and needles to read the next book.

Desire is the sharpest blade...
Four centuries ago, Irena and Alejandro would have succumbed to the need smoldering between them — if a demon and a monstrous bargain hadn’t shattered the possibility of love. Torn apart by shame, Irena avoided Alejandro for centuries — until a vampire’s call for help throws her into his arms again. Alejandro can control fire, but he’s never been able to control — or quench — the flames between him and Irena. And he knows Irena, hardened by her hatred for demonkind, will never accept that he now works at a demon’s behest. But even as he fights for a second chance, a shocking betrayal and a deadly prophecy shake the foundations of the Guardian universe, and all Hell threatens to break loose… Genre: Paranormal Romance, Fantasy Reading order for The Guardians:
