My rating: 4 of 5 stars

If you love adult supernatural fantasy, then this book is definitely for you! Chloe moves into a remote area of Washington state with her new husband Jeff and is greeted by a very handsome mysterious neighbour Zander. Some years later, Zander and his family help Chloe and her daughter Lilly in their time of need, and she learns a lot more about their supernatural family. Zander is a fallen angel who has sworn to protect his family, but will his attraction to Chloe get in the way?
A fab book with lots of twists and turns. I liked the world building and the different supernaturals and the descriptions of their worlds – Especially Heaven. I thought Zander sounded fabulous and Chloe was a strong and capable woman who had been beaten down by life and needed another chance to shine. Fab message and great storyline. I am thrilled to discover there are more books in this series.

This is the first book that I have read by this author and I enjoyed it. It is a paranormal story that kept me flipping page after page. The main characters are what make this story a good one. I just couldn’t help but like Zander and Chloe. They had amazing chemistry and I was eager to see where their story was headed. I am looking forward to reading more books by this author and I would recommend this to a friend.

What an amazing book! Dragons, paranormal, soul mates, fantasy… it had me riveted from beginning to end. It felt very complete with lots of thoughtful detail that allowed the reader to dive deep into this universe whether reading as a stand-alone or in series order. The characters were richly outlined and relatable. Definitely a recommended read!

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

There is a great story here, but I feel as though it’s buried under so much “but wait there’s more” that it just feels over done. I love a good supernatural story and I was excited for this book, but there was just so much going on and it took me so long to wade through it that I honestly just wanted to give up, but I didn’t. It was like the author had fifteen ideas and decided to throw them all into the first five chapters which made it difficult to see the charm of the characters and appreciate the adventure of the story. That being said, I found the base story riveting, the characters enthralling, and I kept reading to see what happened. This may not have been my cup of tea but I think that it is perfect for people who like a lot going on in a story and can keep track of it all.

A great read about duty . Zander is an archangel bound by duty to protect world’s from fallen angels. Over time, he spends his days guarding different worlds. Eventually, he ends up on Earth with a family of his own.. When trouble brews and danger lurks, can he protect his family?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. Well developed characters like Zander torn between duty and his heart or Chloe standing up for herself but kind underneath. Great cast of supporting characters like the kind Tierney or the quiet Jax.
I loved the visual detail throughout the novel especially wirh the scenes in Heaven with the floating clouds and grand golden doors for a sense of grandeur and majesty. Or the vivid colours of the wings in blacks and golds and reds bright and bold and beautiful full of detail for a sense of awe and magic.
I loved the sense of world building with magical beings with their own society with its rules and laws
The use of dates in chapter titles worked well to display how much time passed and was s great addition. The only issue I would raise is that the childlike narrative of Genna didn’t fit to the rest of the novel and distracted from the main narrative. Overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.

I give Dracones Guardian: Dark Dragon by Sheri-Lynn Marean, 5 stars.

Zander spent many years as a warrior archangel in heaven. When he is sent to earth to keep the fallen in line, the one thing he never thought possible happens — he finds true love and starts a family. But his happiness does not last long, he knows he will never love another woman, so he puts all his focus in his children. When he happens to meet his new neighbor — a human female — he starts to feel things he has not felt in a long time. But he had his one true love. Besides, he doesn’t want to put this fragile human in danger. When events happen, she just may be in peril. Can he find love again? What about the enemy that swears to defeat his kind? Can they all live happily ever after? Is there such a thing?

This was an amazing book! I assumed it was your typical paranormal romance, but I was so pleasantly surprised. There is so much going on in this book. The action, the suspense, the grief, plus happiness and love — it is all there. And the characters are incredible!! Not just the main ones, but the cast of secondary characters are just as great. I hope to learn more about them in future books.

This book has some heavy scenes and romance, but it is such a well-rounded book the if you like urban fantasy, you will be hooked. I cannot wait to read the next in the series and highly recommend this book.

Dracones Guardian by Sheri-Lynn Marean a four-star read that will give you wings. This is number six in the series, but it can be read as stand-alone, I haven’t read all of the series and don’t feel like I’ve missed anything. This one has it all, romance and drama with fantasy thrown in for good measure. It’s a story filled with ups and downs, enough drama and passion to keep you hooked but not enough that its overdone. Due to the ups and downs you do need to read closely and pay attention to the story to keep up, but if you do it’s a good read. I don’t want to give spoilers as the story is worth reading.

Dracones Guardian: Dark Dragon was a great 5 star read. This is a great paranormal/fantasy romance. Once I started I couldn’t put it down.

This is a great story with Zander and Chloe. Zander is an archangel committed to keeping people safe from fallen angels. When he ends up on earth he has his children to keep safe. Than he meets Chloe. There is something about her that draws him in. The thing is, she is human. Things take a serious turn when an enemy makes themselves known.

Can Zander keep everyone safe? Can he have more with Chloe?

My emotions were all over the place. The author did a great job with the detail and pulling you right into the scenes, I felt like I was right there at times. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. You can read as a stand alone but I suggest reading the books prior to this one, you will connect better with the characters. I can’t wait to read more from this author and series.

Wow! I don’t even know where to begin with this one! This was my first book by Sheri-Lynn Marean but I can assure you it won’t be my last. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish. Dracones Guardian is a one of a kind read, it’s incredibly detailed, almost to the point of being overwhelming, action-packed, dark, twisted and addicting. This storyline really intrigued me, and I ended up speeding through this book because I couldn’t bring myself to stop.

I loved the flow of this story, it flowed so well even with the many POV’s. Generally, I’m not the biggest fan of multiple POV’s because it can be hard to follow, however, this author did it in a great way, all of the detail made it easy to follow.

Now that I’ve read this book I can’t wait to dive into my next book by this phenomenal author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dracones Guardian is an urban fantasy, and the sixth book in Sheri-Lynn Marean’s Dracones series.
Zander is an angel, living on Earth with his ever-growing family of supernatural creatures. When he is seriously injured, he has to learn to rely on others and accept offers of help.
Escaping from an abusive relationship, Chloe is reluctant to trust others and isn’t used to the kindness and generosity she finds in Zander’s family. Even more unfamiliar to her are the extraordinary people around her who can turn into wolves, leopards and even dragons.
For me, this book had a bit of an X Men feel to it with the way Zander had built up his family of supernatural creatures. There’s a well-established system of magic and history that’s easy enough to follow without having read the other books.
At times, the narrative jumps forward in time. Sometimes this is understandable – particularly the bigger jumps of many years, but at other times it felt like we were skipping over bits of the story that would have been interesting to read.
For me, this is a four star book. I’d recommend it to fans of stories with large found families, and paranormal romances. There are mentions and descriptions of abuse, including child and domestic abuse.

This is not my first book by this author. I was excited to read it because…you know..dragons. What I got was a life story/history story on angels, dragons, and humans. I have not read any other books in this series but I am wondering if all the tidbits I am reading have to do with their stories. It’s full of matings and soul mates. It starts many…many years ago and goes to the present. I can’t even count the number of characters but let’s just say it’s large…very large. It was a bit hard to follow with all the different names popping in and out. Trying to place them with who and what they are caused me to create a list. A couple times stuff happened and we just come in for the aftercare. So this might be better if you have read the rest of the series or some of the other stories.
The story mainly follows Zander from archangel days to now him living on earth. He was mated, created children and adopted others. His house now is full of children, mates, friends and new acquaintances. His life has changed as he is now single. Once the human neighbor moves into the house everyone’s lives take a turn.
This story is full of all the paranormals. From Were-animals to phoenixes to angels. While this mainly follows Zander and Chloe. There are a multitude of other stories that all intermix.

4 Stars

This is book six in the Dracones Series. I suggest that you read the others prior to reading this book. I hadn’t and I was confused quite often. It would have been good to know the history behind the characters. Characters appeared in this novel which seemed like I should have known but didn’t and not much explaining as to who they were therefore I wished I had read the rest of the series.

That being said, the story turned out to be good, once the confusion of the beginning ended. At the start of the book, we learn Zander’s history and the reasons why he left heaven. The story then skips thousands of years where we meet Chloe and learn of the attraction between her and Zander. Without any warning, the story skips ahead seven years later and chaos ensues. Chloe has a daughter and Zander was rescued from a kidnapping and there is a pack of werewolves living in his house. For me, the story actually starts here. From this point on, the book is quite entertaining and I liked it a lot. I loved Zander’s character. He was caring, loyal and a protector. He was also strong, loving and passionate. I liked Chloe’s character as well and thought they were a good match. I liked many of the secondary characters as well, my favourite being Genna. I think she deserves her own book, there are many layers to this character.

Aside from the confusion in the beginning, I really enjoyed the book. It was filled with romance, mystery and danger along with angels, demons and dragons. It had many unique characters who added to the story.

Dracones Guardian (Dracones Book 6) by Sheri-Lynn Marean is a paranormal fantasy that continues into the Dracones series. This story held the perfect mix of suspenseful elements. Zander and Chloe were an interesting collaboration in this story that kept me entertained and fully engrossed in this novel. Anticipation was high in this story wondering which direction was going to unfold next. Excellently written along with the fantastic story line and entertaining while including the danger lurking. Sheri-Lynn Marean has outdone herself in this particular story compared to the previous one(s) that I have read in this series. Amazing imagery, character dynamic and story telling.

Dracones Guardian is the sixth book in this series. It is the first book I have read from this series. I was a little confused at first, but felt the author did an excellent job providing some back story to help me understand the storyline. I do feel that it would make more sense reading books one through five. I lived main characters Zander and Chloe. They were easy to fall for and I loved their development as the story progressed. I felt that the storyline was easy to follow and full of excitement. This was a creative novel and I highly recommend it. I will definitely be reading more from this author.

Dracones Guardian by Sheri-Lynn Marean is apart of the Dracones series but it can be a stand alone book. Marean can pull me as the reader fully into the story from the very beginning. One thing that I really like about Paranormal/Fantasy stories is that it can be base on any location or any type of character. This, to me is what makes the genre exciting. This particular story is about Zander an Arcangel that is on earth to keep everything even between good and evil. He found his first love and had children and his life was fulfilled. That was until his love and children perished and that almost killed him. Now he has Chloe across the street and his world is a changing again. Will Zander start a relationship with Chloe or will he keep to himself? Will there be trials for Chloe and Zander? What will the outcome be? How much would you sacrifice for love?

Dracones Guardian: Dark Dragon by Sheri-Lynn Marean is the sixth book in this series. It can be read as a stand-alone however I do feel that, for background story, it would be best to read these books in order.
This book was amazing. It was such an interesting story, full of twists and turns. I found myself on the edge of my seat for most of it, turning the pages faster and faster in my attempt to consume this book. I had to know what was going on, I had to read more.
Zander and Chloe were just brilliant. You really get behind these characters. The way the author has written them completely captivates you the whole way through.
This book is well written and utterly thrilling. I cannot wait to read more in this series.

It is full of action and danger, Angels and Demons, Soulmates and love. I loved the characters and the band of beings that became a family. I really love this series.

Zander, an archangel who is loyal and a fierce warrior and is very protective of those he loves, his children, his friends, his soulmate. So when Heaven and those he loves come under attack he must fight for their lives.

Sheri-Lynn has done a wonderful job of creating a world and characters that make you feel a part of their story. With lots of twists and turns emotions run high and I had to keep turning the pages until the end.

Dracones Guardian is Book 6 in the Dracones Series which can be read as a stand-alone. This is a brilliant paranormal, fantasy read that has romance, edge of your seat action and adventure. It was a captivating read from start to finish and held me entranced the entire time. It flows from chapter to chapter and while it is fast-paced you never get lost within the story.
I absolutely loved the characters, Zander & Chloe’s story was an epic one at that, they have an instant connection and their chemistry was undeniable. But can the feelings and connection these two have be enough for them to take a chance on love?
I loved the supernatural world that we got brought into, this author has created a read that is mentally visual throughout as though I was there living out the story myself.

This has been a brilliant read that I’m so glad that I got the chance to experience, I will defiantly be going back and reading the rest of the books in the series, and whatever else is to come of this series. But I highly recommend this read!

The story Dracones Guardian (Dracones Book 6) by Sheri-Lynn Marean is a wonderful paranormal/fantasy book. From the very beginning, I was drawn to the characters and the storyline. It has action, danger, magical beings, and romance. I loved reading about the characters of Zander and Chloe. Zander is an archangel who is protective of his children. He is handsome, loyal, and fierce. He is unprepared for what he feels after meeting his next-door neighbor Chloe. Chloe is a kind, caring, and intelligent woman. She also feels something when she first meets Zander. There is an attraction that is only growing stronger. Their worlds both hold danger. Things are not always as they seem to be. Will Zander take a chance and move forward with his feelings for Chloe? How much danger does a new enemy that has arisen bring? Read this book to find out. This story does a wonderful job of building a world that has supernatural beings. There are many characters that are introduced and that I enjoyed finding out about who they are and their part in the story. There are also twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. The book had my emotions going up and down the entire time I was reading it. This is a book that I loved reading and I found that I didn’t want to put it down until I had read the final page. Highly recommended.

Casstiel; Born of Lightning: Dragon Shifter (Dragon kind ~ 52 Realms #2) is action-packed suspenseful romance read from author Sheri-Lynn Marean. This is my first read from this author and I can’t wait to experience what else she has to offer with her other books. For one thing, let us just appreciate how unique, beautiful & powerful this front cover is….! WOW!!!

This was such an imaginative read, that totally captivates you from the start. It’s one of those reads that as your reading it, you can mentally picture everything, it makes you even more connected to this story as your reading it which then makes you feel as though you are there alongside the characters following their journey with them.
This book takes you on an emotional rollercoaster with both our characters Casstiel & Ashara with their past and their pain flowing through the pages. You are thrown twists and turns throughout that keep you wanting more, where you continue to try and figure out what will happen next but this author has created this storyline in such a way it’s not easy to figure out.

I absolutely loved how much of the fantasy theme was weaved throughout this read, with different places/realms and languages throughout, all the different types of beings we learn as well of this world as we follow Casstiel and Ashara story.
Each character in this story has many things that determine how they live their life now, and with the introduction of each other in their lives – will their connection grow stronger? Or is their past still holding them back from getting a HEA?

Can we also point out the secondary characters in this read, they help make this book get greater depth and help our main characters tell their stories even more.

This is a brilliant captivating and a beautifully imaginative book that should not be missed for all fans or Fantasy, Shifters and Romance.

Casstiel; Born of Lightning: Dragon Shifter (Dragonkind ~ 52 Realms) by Sheri-Lynn Marean was a heart pounding, feels gripping read that had me hooked from start to finish.

My first read by this author and for this series. I am in love. This has probably been one of the best dragon shifter books I have read this year! I will say that I was a little confused at first, as this book is the second in this series, and picks up pretty much where the last left off. That being said, it was so well written that I was sucked in, just captured by the story. That opening, setting the stage for Casstiel, letting us not only see his pain, but has us experience it. That alone lets you know this isn’t going to be your typical love story. And now I need to read the book before, so I can get more of the story.

This book is full of those dreaded feels that makes you want to either slap the MC’s or hug them. Told in multi POV you get to see it from all angles and, get to see what they themselves had missed. The world building is outstanding, the info was giving at the right times, the detail was so on point I felt like I was standing with them, and watching first hand. That is what I love about reading, it takes you to all the places you didn’t know you’ve dreamed of.

I have nothing bad to say about this book, from the easy writing style, to the well built, well rounded characters, that had more character development then I thought possible, to the mystery that surrounds Casstiel and Ashara, this is a must read. That is why it gets my ultimate recommendation and my super stamp of approval. You will not be disappointment!

4 Stars

I didn’t realize that this book was part of a series. I was a little confused in the beginning but after a few pages, I was up to speed on what was going on. I actually chose the book because of the cover but I’m glad I did. The author wrote a spellbinding novel of a fantastic world filled with dragons. The more I read, the more I wanted to learn about this world.

When Casstiel’s mate dies, he should have entered the afterlife with her yet he stayed tethered to the world. He stopped living. Hell bent on destroying the one he was bound to, he searched ten years to find her. Yet when he finds her, he never expected to be attracted and protective of her. Feeling as if he is betraying his mate, war rages within him as he fights his feelings for Ashara.

Ashara is such a wonderful and complex character. Raised as a slave and breeding machine for the Ilium, she should have been a broken mess. She rose from the ashes of despair, never losing herself and is one of the strongest characters in the book. I admire her gentleness and selflessness.

This book is a dragon shifter romance yet it is so much more. It is a story of love, loss and heartache. The characters go through so much that it will have your emotions in a whirlwind. The story is detailed and descriptive, bringing the world alive. I think the book is definitely worth the read and I will be looking forward to more books from this author.

Casstiel; Born of Lightening: Dragon Shifter (Dragonkind – 52 Realms) by Sheri-Lynn Marean – Review by Moriah Venable

Casstiel; Born of Lightning: Dragon Shifter (Dragonkind ~ 52 Realms)Casstiel; Born of Lightning: Dragon Shifter by Sheri-Lynn Marean
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Casstiel is the second book in the DragonKind~ 52 Realms series by Sheri-Lynn Marean. This is my first novel by this author.

Nine years after his mate Maya is killed, Casstiel is still walking the Earth but filled with anger wishing to join his mate. He seems oblivion but it eludes him.

“I’m dying, yet I live without you.”

His main focus now is to destroy enemy and find whatever he is searching for.

“No, he’d not stop until they were all burned to ash and scattered to Tartaria’s four corners. Or, until he found what he was looking for.”

What Cass leases expects is the what he is searching for is not a thing but a person and this person is not only his enemy but she is also what is tying him here. She may very well be able to bring him back from himself.

I love paranormal romances with it being one of my favorite genres. I do not read dragon shifters very much but I really enjoyed this.

I love when males find love again after losing a mate and being able to move forward instead of being stuck in the depression and finding someone that help them move forward.

I will have to read more by this author as well as more dragon shifter novels.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoy dragon stories very much. This is book 2 in a series and I was a little lost at times trying to follow the family tree as the story is being told. I had to muddle through the lines to figure out who was who in this large family. Once I was able to work it all out, I settled in to a decent read.

The two main characters in this book are so similar yet so different. Each ignore their base needs because they think their destiny is elsewhere. The male protagonist is kind of a jerk. The female protagonist is stronger than she even realizes and it was interesting to see the two co-mingle and work out their skeletons.

This is a very visually appealing story. At times I felt myself flying through the air and looking at the ground below just like the characters. The world building is interesting and I can see how this series can continue on for many books to come.

If you are a fan of this style fiction, I would absolutely recommend this book.
