Description

FIRST IN THE GUARDIANS TRILOGY
 
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts comes a trilogy about three couples who join together to create their own family and solve an ancient mystery through the powers of timeless love…
 
Sasha Riggs is a reclusive artist, haunted by dreams and nightmares that she turns into extraordinary paintings. Her visions lead her to the Greek island of Corfu, where five others have been lured to seek the legendary fire star, part of an ancient prophecy. Sasha recognizes them, because she has drawn them: a magician, an archaeologist, a wanderer, a fighter, a loner. All on a quest. All with secrets.
 
Sasha is the one who holds them together—the seer. And in the magician, Bran Killian, she sees a man of immense power and compassion. As Sasha struggles with her rare ability, Bran is there to support her, challenge her, and believe in her.
 
When a dark threat looms, the six must use their combined powers—including trust, unity, and love—to find the fire star and keep the world on course.

  • Suspense and captivating

    Wasn’t sure I was going to like this book so I read the sample and was hooked. I love the combination of “skills” of each character and the way it was revealed! Kept me in suspense and trying to determine what would happen next. I’ve read other books with the witch/ warlocks in them and love those. Nora makes the characters so real and relatable. This one was nice as it had a combination of different powers and mythology! Can’t wait to read the next one.

    I am a big Kristen Ashley and Jill Shalvis fan! But, I've never read a book that I couldn't skip a couple paragraphs and not get the story and keep up with its complete story line. This book is a first! I read every word from the first page to its last. Loved it❣While it may read like older Nora Roberts trilogies it's definitely not. It just feels like an old friend that I haven't seen for years. It's been a joy to read. Can't wait to get started on the next. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    It is similar to some of her other trilogies but I enjoyed the new twist and turns. Some of the characters you didn't have to guess how they would evolve but others were a surprise. Overall, a nice read. I'll purchase the rest in the trilogy.
  • Really enjoyed this book!

    This is actually the second time I read this book, since the second book in the series is coming out in June. I read it first last year right after it was published. I love Nora Robert's books and also JD Robb's books too!
  • Recycling old storylines

    I want my money back! She's just copying her earlier trilogies at this point. At least she didn't use too much of that irritating choppy dialogue in this book. But I could have gone back and re-read the sisters or circles trilogy and saved my hard-earned pennies. I'd rather have her early career quality than the quantity of rehash she's pushing out now. Pure greed and I won't fall for it again.

    Love it! The book was a great read if you love the supernatural and Nora's character humor you will love this. Yes it keep and mirrors the key trilogy but this is unique and I love how the story develops definitely waiting for the next book!

    This book is the best book that I have read of hers. It drew me in and I could NOT put it down for the life of me. I'm excited to read the next in the series and I'm waiting impatiently.
  • Not Nora Roberts quality

    I love Nora Roberts. I have read nearly every book she has written and always look forward to a new book. However, this one was disappointing. Right from the start I felt like she was rushing through it. No character development, no real storyline development. Everything moved too quickly. Not one of her better efforts.

    I've read everything Nora Roberts has ever written, many more than once. My daughter may or may not even be named after her. I've seen this coming for a while, her last few novels have all just been a little off, but this one takes the cake. Zero character development, disbelief is apparently supposed to be suspended in the first five pages, and things just don't always make sense. I personally believe she has someone writing for her at this point, her dialogue and character relationships have always been her strong suit and they are nonexistent in this novel.
