Erin Brady’s biological father is determined to see her dead on her 30^th birthday.  Mishaps have started plaguing her as the dreaded day looms closer and closer.  Erin turns to the only one who can save her, Ricardo Santos.  Santos is a Guardian and has dedicated his immortal life to saving humans from demons.  Will Santos and Erin realize their own destiny or will time run out?

Maureen Child does a fabulous job with character development in NEVERMORE.  Santos is a tortured hero, but a loveable one.  He is pure Alpha male but his feelings for Erin soften him up quite a bit.  Readers will enjoy delving into Santos’ past as it provides some depth to his character.  Erin is the ideal heroine for Santos.  Her ability to sense the history of any object has set her apart from others, while her own past remains a mystery. 

NEVERMORE is the second installment of the Guardians series.  This story is easily a stand alone as only a brief reference is made to the first book, ETERNALLY, and no spoilers will be revealed by reading the books out of order.  Be prepared for a whirlwind tale, as NEVERMORE is chock full of action, romance, and even a touch of mystery.
