About this listen
It wasn’t until people started shooting at her that Eve Salutem had an inkling she was anything other than an elementary school teacher suffering from a rare form of cancer. Discovering she was a walking source of the vaccine for lethal bioweapons and that her previous 27 years were based on lies, lies, and more lies shattered her fragile world and threatened her sanity.
She wanted to lock the doors, close the shades and hide in the closet, but he wouldn’t let her. According to him - a guy she’d first encountered next to the fresh fish case in the grocery store for Pete's sake - he was there to save her from some unknown bad guys and her own government.
He didn’t do personal protection - he assassinated people. He didn’t work domestic ops - he was strictly foreign. This babysitting gig in Rochester, Minnesota, surveilling a woman who may or may not be an innocent victim was absolutely not in his job description. Dragging her ass across half of America on a forced road trip infuriated him even further. He didn’t need or want to spend days locked in a car with a sexy young woman whose bucket list included drinking champagne, getting a puppy, and being kissed. How had this become his life? Her purity and goodness bordered on irresistible, but if he touched her, he’d leave a black smudge on her soul.
In Eve, he saw the goodness of humanity, and Thanatos would storm the gates of hell to protect her; but a creature of purity and light could never belong to the assassin who was named after a God of Death.

Story
In the Shadow World, he was the god of death, and he was called many names. The monsters he hunted called him Anubis. Those who saw his face died. To Guardian Security, he was a number - a surgical weapon they wielded against monstrous evil. One woman called him Kaeden Lang. Anubis never meant her to be anything except an interlude - a moment of light in the darkness of his life, a one-time escape from the ever-present haze of death.

David Xavier - and all those he loved or counted as friends - would forever be mouth-watering targets to men of evil intent. His wealth could settle a small country's foreign debt. Because of this, from the moment of his birth, his mother obscured his identity. Reborn as the man named Gabriel, however, he walked free into a world where the innocents and the weak cried out for a defender, for the hand of justice, for a guardian angel.

Story
The CIA didn’t care if Agent Victoria Marshal lived or died in an Afghani hell-hole. Yet, she survived each torture session with single-minded determination, but human flesh has its limits. She knew her time was running short. Jacob King led a privately funded black ops group into that Afghani village to gather intelligence. He didn’t expect to find an American woman. He admired her brave humor in the face of her agonizing injuries. This kind of tough-minded woman was someone Jacob wanted to know, so he asked her for a date…same time, next year.

Story
Alone, isolated from the vast resources of Guardian, Dixon Simmons reentered a world that had left him impossibly damaged as a child. He stepped back into that evil by choice. To protect all he’d come to love, he was willing to pay whatever price was demanded — even if the price was his soul. She went by many names. Her true identity was as dead as her heart. Until him. The man was every bit as lethal as she was and deliciously sexy. Dixon Simmons piqued her interest, and what started as lust turned into another “L” word. She gave a “forever after” with him no hope.

I’m not looking for a hero, and definitely not a fake relationship with my new boss, nightclub owner Dante Fury—over six feet of dark, hot, and dangerous. But he isn’t taking no for an answer. The plan was to run, live under the radar, survive. My life’s been destroyed by some very bad people and everything I know is gone—career, friends, family. I thought I could hide as a bartender at New Orleans’ hottest new club, Ember.

There wasn’t a lot that surprised me. My years in the Navy taught me a lot, my years hunting human traffickers taught me the rest. Meeting a beautiful woman in a bar and spending the night with her should’ve been a blip on my radar. Instead, I spent years trying to forget her. In the middle of a rescue operation, fate dropped her back into my life, but there was a twist—she wasn’t alone.

Brady Hewitt was all too familiar with the horrors of war. They clung to him, or maybe he clung to them, using the nightmares as an excuse to keep others at bay—especially his boss’ daughter, Hadley Walker. Beautiful, sexy, ambitious, and forbidden. Not just because the former Special Forces soldier respected her father and liked his job, she was too good for him—all sunshine and smiles while he was darkness and filth.

This may be my toughest mission yet. None of my SEAL training or my time in the CIA has prepared me for this: a prickly, five-foot-nothing hellcat Jasmin Smith. She was mine. She can fight it all she wanted, but in the end, I would have her every way a man can have his woman. She was a sassy little thing, making me work to bend her to my demands. But I will! I will bend her and tie her to me so tight she would never be able to get free. Only problem is I had to break her first. I had secrets that she needed to know.

Great set of books!
I was surprised when I became addicted to these books. Military, great characters. Even better sex! I’ve read 14 to date. Twice I purchased 3 extra credo from Audible. So worth it! Thank you Kris Micheals.

Annoying FMC
The female main character is whiny and annoying. I almost did not finish. The dude works for a security company and you get upset when he protects you. Wtf. She needs to find a different man instead of giving him ultimatum’s. Telling him he can’t avenge his family either. Come off your high horse woman. Horrible leading lady. Excellent narrator as always just a horrible FMC.

Second book read by this guy!
I truly loved this story and can not wait to read more like this. I had avoided this author because of seeing a neg review but whoever wrote that was wrong. I will be looking for more written by Kris Michaels and narrated by Matt Haynes.

Blame the Editor
Large, huge, giant, even monstrous… Those are all legitimate words that can also be used to describe what is only described as massive in these books. El Capitan is massive. Mount Rushmore is massive. The Pacific Ocean is massive. Surely your editor has told you this? But once again, that being said, I thoroughly and massively enjoyed this book. When Matt Haynes proceeds with his Irish accent, it brings out my inner alley cat! Hooray for Thanatos!

I really disliked Eve throughout the 2nd half of the book. I hoped she would go away without Thanatos. The author did a great job of Eve having no redeeming qualities.

Not your usual Kris Michaels female
I love Kris Michaels but this female lead/character is awful. I'm sorry but I couldn't relate to her at all and her freak outs are just too much. I just kept thinking "grow up!". usually she writes good strong female characters but this girl is just horrible. I've listened to all of the other Guardians and Shadows books and honestly I'd skip this one if I were you.
