Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The rough and rugged Talions, sexy warriors who stop
at nothing to deliver justice, star in this steamy new
paranormal series from Alexis Morgan.

He's on a mission to annihilate the enemy

A Talion enforcer, Ranulf Thorsen has served his people for a thousand years, delivering the eye-for-an-eye justice by which his kinsmen live. Weary of the centuries-long fight, the fierce warrior with icy blue eyes has secluded himself on a mountain far from the chaos of the modern world below. Now he's been summoned to face the most dangerous battle of his life — and the fate of his people is on the line.

But when he meets the beautiful woman
he has sworn to defend...

Ranulf and his bitter rival, fellow Talion Sandor Kearn, must find the rogue Kyth who set a violent fire in a nightclub. The near-deadly blaze's unlikely heroine, Kerry Logan, is also a Kyth, possessing the ancient Nordic people's unique ability to manipulate human energy. She just doesn't know it yet.

...who will protect his heart?

Kerry finds more than comfort in her warrior's embrace, and Ranulf hungers to both defend and claim the petite powerhouse for his own. But with time ticking away and their lives on the line, will Kerry believe the wild tale he's telling her, and master her powers...before it's too late?

Synopsis:

The first book in a new paranormal series featuring the Tailons, a rugged group of warriors selected to hunt down and punish those who have gone rogue within their own kind. Original.

I'm a fan of Alexis Morgan's 'Paladin' series, so I was very excited to get "Warrior Unbound" which is the start of a new 'Talions' series. While it wasn't (for me) quite as good as her Paladin series, it was still an interesting read with hot, sexy, paranormal men (and women)!

Ranulf is a Kyth Talion enforcer. He's the one his Dame (queen) calls when one of the their kind go bad...like a Kyth bogeyman. But he so very tired. He's given over a thousand years of service to his Dame and wants nothing more than to retire, alone, to his secluded mountain retreat. However, his Dame has called and he must answer for now. His attention is riveted when he encounters an unknown, and unknowing, female Kyth. When she becomes embroiled in his hunt for a rogue, it's all he can do to keep his hands off her.

Kerry has always known she's a little different, but at least she always thought she was human! Now she's got two handsome hulks guarding her from a Kyth gone bad. Both of guards are hot, both are built like a wet dream...so why is it the one she can't stop thinking about is the dark bad boy of the pair? And if that's not enough, the Dame is trying to force Kerry to be the next queen!!

I'll be interested to see where this series heads. Hopefully the next book will be about the Paladin who lost out on the girl in this book. But I'll have to wait a whole year to find out :(
