Description

***Reader Note: This box set contains the first 3 parts of a 11-part urban fantasy/paranormal romance serial. Cliffhangers included! If this is not a preferred reading format that you enjoy, please consider not requesting.***

Human. Angel. Demon.

Three species that have coexisted since the beginning of time, although humankind is blissfully unaware of the predators and protectors that walk among them. But there is a new threat emerging that affects them all.

The story begins when an innocent girl is saved from certain death by a man who straddles the worlds of darkness and light. Their relationship holds the key to saving everyone.

PROTECT HER: PART ONE

Get in. Get the job done. Get out. Get paid.

My name is Riley Stone, and this simple motto is what I’ve lived by for the last five years. It’s kept me alive and made me rich.

There’s no love lost between me and the supernatural beings who walk the world beside us. But when it comes to being able to retrieve valuable information from the dead, I'm the only game in town. They know it. I know it too, and that’s why my services aren’t cheap.

The archangel Benjamin hired me to find out why he has a new demon problem. Three demon interrogations in, and the only thing I know is that the demons are in hot pursuit of a nameless young woman. She’s here on Calamata Island, and the demon officials are willing to risk Benjamin’s wrath to grab her.

But I found her first, and she’s nothing like what I expected. In my line of work, you can’t afford to let anyone get too close. But there’s something about Paige Matthews that I can’t shake, and she needs my help. I won’t turn her over to Benjamin until I help her find out why the demons are after her.

So now I’ve got a demon problem, and I’m in way over my head.

PROTECT HER: PART TWO

I know what happens to a human caught in the crossfire between angels and demons. I’m going to make sure that Paige Matthews doesn’t find out.

The job that originally brought me to Calamata Island might be done, but I can’t leave Paige behind. Without me she’s defenseless against the demons that are after her. I just met her, but I feel protective of her, and I can’t walk away. Not yet.

Paige is at the epicenter of something big, and none of it is good. It’s not just the demons that want her. The angels are in on it too being led by the archangel Benjamin.

Paige’s past is being hidden by her amnesia. Those secrets want to be let out. It’s up to me to make sure that she stays alive long enough to find the answers that will finally reveal it all.

PROTECT HER: PART THREE

I want Paige Matthews. The archangel Benjamin’s claim on her soul is one that cannot be easily broken, but I intend to try. Of course, that’s assuming that she would want someone like me once this is all over.

First, we have to get off Calamata Island in one piece. I know someone who can help Paige finally unlock the memories of her past. That’s the key to gaining the upper hand against the demons who are coming for her. Among those is a familiar face; a demon official who stole something from me five years ago. Having a shot at a little vengeance in the process is all right with me.

Everything’s coming to a head, and this is one fight that I intend to win. I just have to make sure that I don’t lose Paige in the process.

Advance Praise

"This is the first three parts to The Protect Her serial. As always Ms. Sinclair brings to fruition an amazing world with equally amazing characters. The world and character building is spot on, leaving just enough mystery to keep you hooked. I absolutely love the format of the character POV's, it's always nice to know what each character is thinking. If you're looking for a good paranormal story to sink your teeth into this is definitely one you should consider. This serial contains just the perfect amount of suspense, mystery, drama, and adventure for all readers, there is a touch of romance but it certainly isn't overbearing, I actually kinda wish there was more going on between the two main characters....they certainly have the chemistry to make it happen." - Amazon reviewer

Featured Reviews

I received this book series as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Rating 4.5 out of 5

Thank you to the author Ivy Sinclair for releasing 3 parts at one time. I grow more and more frustrated by authors who only release a small portion of a book at a time. It is not kind nor considerate to the readers. I do not appreciate cliffhangers. This box set felt whole which made the experience of reading it so much more.

Highly enjoy the paranormal and would recommend this book set.

Awesome series kept me on my toes. Riley & Paige are two different people but as the series go they stand together. I will need to read the others in the series.

This is a fast paced, well written box set that will leave you wanting more. It is cliff hanger so dont read if you dislike that sort of thing, the story line it self is so smooth and easy reading. You find you finish the book fast then you actually thought. This was the 1st time that I have read anything from this author but I really cant wait to read more. The characters as so real feeling, you love and hate them all at the same time.

I am completely addicted. So addicted that I'm actually engaging my husband in conversation about this serial to bounce ideas off of him as to what's going to happen next. and that basically NEVER happens.

In part 1 we meet Paige, who has zero idea who she was prior to three years ago. Her first memory is waking up in a hospital and after giving up hope that her memory would return she made up the name Paige Matthews and took a job on an island at a flower shop. The owner of the flower shop, Christopher, takes her under his wing (hehe - this will be almost funny after you read it. I swear) and she begins to create a brand new life for herself. Unfortunately, she can't escape the nightmares and that's what has her out running in the middle of the night when she's attacked by a demon.
Riley Stone, necromancer and hired demon interrogator, saves Paige from her near death run-in with a demon. Riley knows that the demons are searching for her - he's actually been hired to find out why they've come on to the island, a former demonfree zone - but he doesn't know why.

This serial quickly pulls you into the paranormal world and doesn't let go. There's a fantastic intensity and well developed connection among the characters and I absolutely love it. Paige may not know what's going on, but she's one seriously tough chick. She faces danger, death and the unexpected without flinching. The twists and turns are SO GOOD that it had me frantically flipping through the pages of my kindle.

Slight Spoilers ahead for parts 2 & 3:

Riley and Paige have an immediate magnetic pull on one another that you can actually feel. When they first give in to their impulses in the caves, I was squealing a bit. I love their honesty with each other and Riley's protective nature. They're both a little vulnerable and out of their element and I think that's part of why this story works so well. Of course, now I'm dying to know how Benjamin branded Paige, why Riley can't *ahem* FINISH what he so definitely wants to because of that brand, and what the hell Proctor is going to do to Paige. SO MANY QUESTIONS.

While I received an ARC of this box set in exchange for this review, I sure as fuck went and bought parts 4-7.

I shall report back - LOVE THIS!

First let me say I received this book via the author only to find it on NetGalley and requested it there and got approved.

This box set is only parts 1-3 and there seems to be another box set or two.
All the parts are novellas so they are not full length novels but they do pack a punch.
My review will be on each part.
Part one Protect Her:
Here we are introduced to the characters Riley and Paige. First comes Riley as he is interrogating a demon on why they are on the island trying to find a girl. Riley has no clue who this girl is because there are no pictures. Riley is a necromancer which I believe for me is the first time to read about one of these in a book. When Riley hears a girl scream he comes to her rescue and this girl who we find out is named Paige is the one Riley is looking for. But don't really know that for sure until later on. Paige has no clue about the two words the exist besides the humans and that is because of her amnesia.
Paige doesn't like that she is putting Riley in danger but Riley can handle himself to a certain extend. We learn a bit about Paige and how she has been living on the island for the last three years with her roommate Christopher. Riley is a bit more mysterious as Paige ask him questions but he is vague on his answers. But he has a past that isn't pretty. I think that is what gives him his bad boy image.

Part two: We find out who Christopher truly is and I can say I didn't see that coming even though I should have. Christopher's little secret doesn't make Paige trust him as she once did before. We watch as Paige always ends up with Riley even though he is never forth coming on telling her his past or what he does exactly. Christopher has a secret agenda with Paige and we slowly learn a bit about it. He has fallen for Paige but of course she doesn't have the feelings for him as he does for her.
With part two a small bit of information comes to the surface for Paige regarding her amnesia. Will this be the time she gets answers? Part Three: Now that Paige learns that demons are after her. Riley and her have to try to stay one step ahead of them and try to find answers as to why she is wanted. There is something special about her that they want but no one knows why, or at least that is what we think. Riley turns to his mentor for answers and what we find out is that there is something special about Paige. But will she be able to accept the truth of who she is? The feelings that Paige and Riley have seem like it wants to blossom through out the whole story but Paige belongs to someone and we don't really understand why exactly he has marked her. The excuse she is given is it was to keep her safe, be we all know that is a crock of bull. Overall I loved the story being told through Riley and Paige's eyes. I enjoyed how we are kept in suspense as to who Paige is and what is wanting her.
As the drama with it all gets intense I just hope that we soon get answers in the other books in this series. There is plenty of action pretty much nonstop from the beginning where we meet Riley and learn about Paige. To the twist and turns that keep you wanting to find out what is going to happen next.
