Can't go wrong with any of Rebecca Zanetti's books! "Rebel's Karma" is part of the Dark Protectors series. I highly recommend that readers new to this series start at the beginning. This series has a lot of world building and the storyline for each new book is built from the events of the previous books.

I remember reading this series so many years ago and I have been so hooked ever since then! It's amazing how this author has spanned stories of many generations but each of them unique and as amazing as all of them.

The same can be said about benjamin and karma's book. They have this chemistry that is just so addictive right from the first page. This one was a bit less spicy than the rest of the books by this author but I still loved it a lot! The characters and good and my favourite part was definitely the cameos of my other fav characters of this series. I don't think I will ever tire of seeing them all!

Totally recommending this one to all the dark paranormal romance loving people. If broody men , hot and slow burn romance along with a twist of paranormal is something you love , then make sure to read this series.

I love this series but had such a hard time getting into this book and staying interested in it. The characters were not all that interesting.

I volunteered to read and review a readers copy of Rebels Karma through Net Galley . I really enjoyed reading this story . It's well written and the characters are unique and interesting . Benjamin (Benny) is a vampire /demon hybrid and one of the Seven . He has been searching for three years for Karma he wasn't able to rescue her then but the mating mark appeared then . Although he's not interested in mating . He cannot leave her with the evil Kurjan . Against her will he escapes and takes her with him . Neither trusts easily and as the story unfolds both hold secrets from each other . As they spend time together their chemistry ignites and along with acton and suspense there is smoking sexy moments . This story is sensational and entertaining . I highly recommend taking the time to read .

Emotionally thrilling, action packed roller-coaster journey filled with engaging charters, witty dialog, heart racing twists, memorable moments and exciting turns. An edge of your seat adventure from beginning to end.

This was such a fav of mine! Benny and Karma was so great and so lovely.

Karma been captive for centuries and when Benny comes and his mating mark comes in he does nothing but try to save her from her captives. I love them so much!

This author never disappoints in delivering the suspense, drama, and steamy goodness.... and this book was no exception! I loved the story line and the characters, and I am looking forward to reading on in this series!

Waited for Benny’s story. Benny is on of the Seven. Three years ago he tried to rescue Karma during a mission and ended up having the mating mark on his palm. Benny left Karma alone even though she was his mate because he thinks his life will be over anyway when the final battle happens. Karma just wants to finish her mission for the Kurjans and go back and rescue her adopted twin girls even if it means betraying Benny and the others.
I enjoyed Benny and Karma’s story. Karma’s journey from a battered woman to one empowered had me cheering for her at every step. Benny and Karma had to overcome many obstacles to reach their happily ever after, so glad they did.

This is book 13 in the Dark Protectors series. I have only read a few of them. Benjamin Reece is part of the 7 who protect their homeland and people. He discovers who his mate is to be and spends years hunting for her. Karma's life mission is to save the innocent and the two small girls she adopts are meant for something sinister. A good love story with lots of growing as a person. I think that many of the characters in the book probably had previous stories. I received a copy of this ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review.

Love this series and love this book. Rebecca does a great job falling in love with each of these characters

Another solid installment in this long running PNR series from Rebecca Zanetti, and we are inching closer to the climax in the arc surrounding the Seven and their conflict with the Kurjans. It follows the romance of Benjamin Reese and Karma, the former mate of a Kurjan soldier.

Karma is a little different than most of the heroines in this series in that she is not a modern woman. She is hundreds of years old, but because she has been trapped with the Kurjans all these years, she is stuck in their old fashioned and misogynistic mindset. The men there treat women like servants and Terre (the ruthless brother to their leader) wants to have her for his own. Only the allergy that stems from her old mating prevents it. But once he realizes Benny intends to rescue her, he hatches a plan to let it happen. That way, she can get the shot to break that mating and help him spy on the Realm at the same time. She agrees only because her adopted daughters are being held as hostages.

Anyway, she likes long skirts and worries about speaking her mind, while Benny is the same brand of overprotective warrior as all the other guys in the series. Thankfully, though, because of her background and disposition, he isn't as obnoxious about it. AND HE NEVER SPANKS HER which I am not sure we have every successfully avoided in this series. (I'll give it an extra half-star just for that.) He is supposed to be "crazy" but I never found him so. Just a little unconventional.

Their romance progresses as you would expect as Karma is willing to sacrifice herself for her daughters and Benny fights tooth and nail to keep her safe. (Did I mention she can also see dead people?)

We get to spend a little time with Hope, Pax, and Drake. They're all in their mid-teens now. And y'all, I am 100% team Pax. I know this triangle kind of mirrors the one involving Janie in the past --and I was down with her HEA being on the other side of the battle-- but here... let's just say I'll be very disappointed if Drake ends up the guy.

We're not a lot closer on the Ulrich storyline, but we are running out of heroes, so maybe... three more books?

As always in this series, great world building, a great wide-cast of supporting characters and lots of action. Would recommend.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher, through NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review. It was probably not the smartest thing to read the 13th book in a series I knew nothing about but I'll know better next time. Apart from my confusion about some aspects, the love story was great. I'm generally not into paranormal romance but this one just worked and I loved both protagonists. Surely worth a read if you are a Rebecca Zanetti fan and if you're not, you'll become one. But maybe start reading the series from the start :) .

This book is about Benny, a Vampire-Demon who is hell bent on saving his mate, Karma from his enemies(The Kurjans). It gets complicated when Karma wants to go back to be with her daughters, of course Benny will do anything to keep her happy even if it means to let her go. Decisions and sacrifices have to be made before anyone can get their happy ever after.

I have been trying to catch up with this series in forever. Since I started late in the game, I have yet to fully catch up but I’ve read far enough to know most of the characters. Of course when this book came available, I had to jump ahead. I have to warn you, while you can read this book as a stand alone, I highly recommend you read this series in order. I think it will just be a more pleasant experience when you are familiar with the characters.

I love how this series has evolved into the next generation of heroes and heroines while getting glimpses of the couples from the previous stories. I especially like the consistency this author has put in in this series. She continuously keeps me interested in each story line. It’s action packed, always have sexy heroes, and kick ass heroines who can keep up a good banter with their mates as well as keep them on their toes. I promise you, this series will also keep you at the edge of your seat.

Benjamin Reese has been a bit of a loner due to his secretive status with the Seven, his vampire-demon hybrid genes and his gruff nature. But ever since he found Karma, he's been on the hunt to get back to her and show her the mating mark driving him crazy on his palm, even if she's still mated to a dead Kurjan.
Karma is "rescued" by Benny and finds herself swept off of her feet by not only the member of the Seven but the modern world and how different the members of The Realm are from what the Kurjan's have been telling her. She does her best to protect her family by playing spy for the Kurjans and taking the virus which will erase her mating bond but she finds herself having a hard time protecting her heart from Benny.
Action packed, funny and fully of mystery with the Seven (also the return of some favorites, Bear and his motorcycle club), another great addition to the Dark Protectors series.

Rebecca Zanetti's world has been a favorite of mine for years and Rebel's Karma and have been anxiously awaiting Benny's story. I always knew I would enjoy his book but was not expecting it to become a favorite.
One of my favorite parts of Zanetti's books is constantly weaving through the old lore and favorite characters from the early books. This book has me more excited for the three kids, Hope, Pax, and Drake as we see them continue to grow. It was unexpected how much I would enjoy Karam but I liked her about as much as Emma, who has historically been my favorite of the women.

Vampires: check.
Enemies to lovers: check.
SPICE: DOUBLE CHECK.

This book was everything I was hoping for and more. I haven’t ever read a book from this authors, but apparently this isn’t even their best book and honestly that’s surprising. I can’t wait to read more of their works.

4.5 Stars

Another great addition to the Dark Protectors, Rebel’s Karma is a compelling read. Benny and Karma were great characters along with the dynamic ensemble around them. The story was captivating and engaging and I can’t wit to see where it goes next

Rebel’s Karma (Dark Protectors #13). By Rebecca Zanetti. 2021. Kensington Books (ARC eBook).

After three years of searching, the reckless vampire-demon hybrid Benjamin “Benny” Reese gets his mate away from the Kurjan. Karma, a delicate lady from a bygone time who surprises Benny with her fiercely protective backbone. I really enjoyed Rebel’s Karma. There’s the series’ trademark action, humor and sizzle. There were some twists and turns as well and the plot involving the kids of the Realm and Kurjan nation beginning to evolve a bit more as they are now three years older and closer to reaching adulthood.

Fans of Rebecca Zanetti comes Rebel's Karma Benjamin Reese is finally getting the woman he has been search for and willing to die for. Readers of Rebecca Zanetti has been waiting for Benjamin to have his HEA. The story is Alpha male refusing to give up on his desire for the one woman he can't get out of his head. Save the woman, woman wants to save him from the bad guys, Cave man saves woman, they fight, they want sex but get interrupted but swear they will finish it with a mark of the mate. Cave much "Me Tarzan. You Jane!" Those is gun, blood, family, more guns, bombs and everyone almost dying to save the mate.
Yet with all Dark Protectors series there is heart and soul to the characters that will keep readers coming back for more.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the copy of Rebecca Zanetti Rebel's Karma.

***3 Stars***

This is a total “It’s not you, it’s me” thing because I was totally looking forward to Benny’s book and yet, I just couldn’t get into it. I love the seven. I love all the characters that make up this world, but it was a struggle to stay focused. But while I’m giving this one 3 stars right now, I am keeping it at the top of the list to read again because I definitely feel like I’ve was just in a wonky reading mood that I’m finally coming out of and I will have more to say on after a re-read.
