Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for granting me an ARC of this book.

I’ve been wanting to read Grace and Adare’s story since Faith’s book. But sadly, I wasn’t really crazy over their book.

I found myself really frustrated at how Grace hemmed and hawed about truly mating with Adare. Adare had his own emotional hang ups that drove me batty too. Going on and on about how he has no emotions and his guilt over the slaughter of his clan centuries ago. Oy.

Honestly, I lost interest reading about their baggage and about her weird medical condition and all the drama surrounding it. These issues take up so much of the plot and I grew tired of all the back and forth over them.

I really liked all the action/fight scenes though! Those were exciting.

The other bright spot for me in this whole book were the chapters about Hope or when she was in the scenes. It’s her story arc that I’m really interested in. Can’t wait till she grows up and we finally find out what happens.

OMG! This is such a good book. There is action, humor, and sex. Along with vampires, demons, and some very evil beings. I read as slow as I could because I didn’t want the story to end. Cannot wait for the next story. Grace is strong and very brave. Adare is handsome and protective.
Grace is an enhanced human who was in a coma five years ago. She is a photographer and her pictures shows what’s in a persons soul. She is mated but with just a bite not sex and the mark is fading but so is her health. Adare is one of the Seven which means he is almost indestructible and mated to Grace. But he has let her live her life the past several years but once she is in danger, he expects her to really mate him. With the mission he is about to take, he doesn’t believe he’ll make it back alive so he wants Grace protected. Between fighting the Kurjans and keeping his mate alive and well, Adare is feeling emotions never felt before. But once Grace is taken, Adare will go to the ends of the earth to find her.

Grace wants nothing to do with to bring a Key, immortals, or her so-called mate - but when her health is once again failing and she can't piece together her past - where does that leave Adare?

I freaking loved this from start to finish! There are some funny tropey moments - all the forced proximity and bed-sharing you could want - plus - what is essentially a modern paranormal take on a marriage of convenience. Grace is a toughie who is artistic and kind and trusts her instincts and lets herself learn to trust Adare. Adare is a total cinnamon roll and has no idea what to do with this tiny woman who won't listen. This slow-burn really started books ago when Adare saved Grace from her life-threatening coma and watching their relationship grow and develop and their feelings evolve was beyond awesome. When they finally get to it - Grace is not one t take anything lying down and challenges every part of Adare's world view and I loved it.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I'm breathless, absolutely breathless! Guardian's Grace was fast-paced and alternately had me holding my breath in anticipation and panting from excitement.

This is a middle book in the saga of The Seven, and we catch up with this deadly, but secretive, team of vampire-demon hybrids five years after the previous book, Hero's Haven. The physics of our world has been accidentally altered by The Seven and immortals who once had the ability to teleport no longer can. That hasn't stopped their enemy, the Kurjans, from continuing to plot, scheme, and kidnap. We find that Grace Cooper, who was partially mated to Adare O'Cearbhaill when he saved her from her coma, has been avoiding her grumpy mate in the interim and hiding a deteriorating medical condition. When he finally finds out about it, things heat up. The two lovers disagree about how to handle their tangled mating dilemma. Re-mate *yes, please!* or take the bond-cancelling virus?

Once again, Rebecca Zanetti knits a slew of fascinating and intricate storylines into one cohesive volume. At the centre is Grace and Adare's love story: their sizzling attraction, their debates of fate and future, their emotional mutual revelations on each other's psyches. Woven around them is danger, suicide missions, plotting and counterplotting, struggling alliances and dirty double-crosses. And finally, but definitely not the least of which, is the mysterious destiny of Hope Kayrs-Kyllwood. Hope has turned thirteen years old and a power shift is in the air ...

You know the feeling of running so fast that you stumble over your feet? That's how I felt in reading Guardian's Grace; my eagerness to devour Rebecca's words felt like I was crashing through the book with unstoppable urgency. The great characters in this storyline make each book re-readable, again and again. I'm planning to do so with this one as well.

I have been waiting forever for this book... and it was worth it. I love that it started as a time jump, because whatever is going to happen with Hope has to been when she is an adult. I live the Grace stood up to Adare throughout this book and the others in the series, but I did think she made a few stupid decisions, but overall she was a likable character. The ending when the realized the loved each other seemed a little abrupt, but it worked. I liked the sneaked peak about Benny towards the end as well.
