About this audiobook

Secrets from the past . . .

Shy country girl Teren Lambert is used to being in the background…and she likes it that way. Trapped by painful memories, she feels whole only when she's helping the women and children at the Delos Charity's Safe House in Sudan. But her new bodyguard, Ex-Delta Force operator Nolan Steele, is having an unexpected impact on her-and she's not sure where these new feelings will take them both. He's become her sanctuary.

Steele is no stranger to living with personal loss, and he never wants to relive it again. That's why he guards his heart as strongly as he guards his clients' lives. But he's captivated by Teren's quiet beauty, and haunted by the pain in her dark eyes. He's on a mission to protect Teren and her charges at the Delos Charity's Safe House, but can he protect his heart at the same time? Or will he find the courage to love again?

Contains mature themes.

    This one has a less fast paced plot, and primarily centred around the development of the new settlement, Sanctuary. The ending is good though, and it gathers pace there to an excellent conclusion. In fact, it's surprising there's a fourth book, since this is so clearly an end to the over-arcing story of the series so far.

    Kiron gets pushed further forward (did he ever really notice that he was Commander of Jousters?), exciting adventures, a deus ex machina or two to wipe out all the enemies and a conventional happy ending. I'm kind of surprised she wrote the next book, actually.

    This is the third book in the Dragon Jouster's series that began with Joust and continued in Alta, and you should read those first. I'm a fan generally of Lackey's books, particularly her Valdemar series, and I think these are among the best of her books I've read. The series is centered on Kiron (in the first book known as Vetch) and I like his arc throughout the books, as well as the magical land, reminiscent of Ancient Egypt, in which this is set--and the dragons of course. They're not talking or telepathic dragons in the vein of McCaffrey or Novik, but are still engaging. The problems in the two lands of the previous books come to a head in this one, and beyond following characters I'd grown to care about (the dragons as much as the humans) this makes for a well-paced gripping adventure tale.

    This series seems to be losing some of it's spirit. It just seemed to go on for a bit too long and felt almost like an excercise in writing a series rather than a serious inclusion in the series.The fight between the magi and the jousters and the other magic users intensifies and starts to get serious. More and more children are turning up dead or drained. The Magi are planning to do more damage. It is a problem sometimes with Mercedes Lackey that her bad guys rarely seem to have shades of grey involved.
