He is... Creed

Rate this book
They created a weapon. And he is that weapon...

He was stationed at Area 51, a loyal soldier serving his country, and later injected with what he believed to be a standard vaccination, only it was an experiment. Now he's a weapon, a man with skills like no other, who can travel with the wind, a man with darkness within that he battles every day of his life.

Then he meets Addie—the light to his darkness, the daughter of the man who created him. Addie is the only one who understands Creed, the only one who makes him feel more man than monster.

But there is war in the air between Creed, his fellow windwalkers, and Addie's father. Creed will not allow himself, or the others like him, to live as pawns and weapons.

Now Addie must choose a side.
Her father or the man she loves.

Creed was hot! I love the super soldier concept. I love the life bond concept. I love how powerful, but cold Creed is. I love how smart the heroine is and that she immediately paired up with Creed. This does end on a cliffhanger, but I am hooked. I want to see what moves will be made next.

‘The Dark One’

Creed Monroe is a soldier given a vaccine that has turned him into something more. A Windwalker , stronger, faster and way more deadly. They created soldiers they can’t control.

“Regret is a fool's emotion that makes you weak and insecure.”

Addie has gone to work at Area 51 to figure out what her father is up to. Her attraction to Creed is over the top.

Have coffee with the hottest man I’ve ever met when my love life is non-existent?

This is just the kind of story I love. Strong alpha men and smart women. Off the charts chemistry and suspenseful adventure. Eagerly awaiting part 2!!

Somehow today, with him, he hit the right note, nuzzling down into my soul in some strange way, and I’m not as alone.

This was definitely an entertaining read, it is so out of my usual genre but I still found myself enjoying it. I'm glad I gave it a shot. This is a sci fi, romance, action and suspense filled novel.

I enjoyed the super soldier concept I thought it was executed nicely, the terminology was all explained prior to reading which I really appreciated. Addie was a great FMC and very relatable. Creed is one hot soldier. Their attraction to each other is instantaneous. The fated mates was a nice add that I did enjoy and made me believe the quickness of their relationship and feelings more.

The plot was well developed, super intriguing. The world building was done very well and easily imaginable. It ends on a huge cliffhanger and you'll want to grab the second part asap. 

If you're looking for a romance with a Sci fi twist definitely give this series a try !

Lisa Rene Jones has done it again - written a book that grabs the reader from page one. This Windwalkers series is starting off intense with Amelia dedicated to finding out what is happening in Area 51 and with the Windwalkers. Meeting Creed threw Ameila off as she became attracted to him. Determined to find out exactly what is going on within the military, is an uphill battle, that her father is the one in charge, makes it even more difficult. With some of the soldiers involved in the experiment already showing signs of becoming even more deadly, we see Amelia struggle as she is torn between her research and Creed. With a dramatic conclusion to this first book, I am anxiously awaiting to see what happens in book two.

This was such an entertaining read! It’s a sci-fi romance filled with action and suspense and provided the right amount of spice to keep it exciting! The characters were very well-rounded; with Addie’s smartness and Creed’s strength, it added depth to the story. Also, I loved the way the multiple POV’s were written and how the plot flowed seamlessly, leaving room for the suspense. After reading part 1, I am looking forward to the second and third books next year!

Honestly, why is no one talking about this book?! I got this book from one of the stuff your kindle events and i devoured this book in 24 hours.

My only complaint is how short it is, i wish it was longer.

It follows the daughter of a general who works for area 51 and they have created super soilders by injecting males with alien DNA.

It has spice, fated (kinda) mates, duel POVs, sadly it does end on a cliff hanger. But holy shit.

This was such a good read.

I’m confused?

Creed is the same book as Michael? Am I the only one who noticed this? Twins Caleb and Adam are the same as Caleb and Julien. Michael and Creed are the same too. What happened????

HE IS …CREED Part 1 is the first instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult WINDWALKERS sci-fi, romance series focusing on supersoldier Creed, and scientist Dr. Addie Lawrence.

NOTE: HE IS ..CREED is the re-release and reimagined story first introduced as Michael/ The Legend of Michael (Zodius Series) but has been completely rewritten with new content, characters, names and premise.

Told from several first person perspectives including Creed and Addie HE IS …CREED follows Dr. Addie Lawrence as she struggles with a government experiment, using alien DNA to create an army of super soldiers, DNA injected without the soldiers’ permission. In the wake of her mother’s death from an automobile accident, Addie begins working at Area 51, continuing the work of her late mother, only to discover that her father General Lawrence, has been keeping secrets, and Addie’s life may be in danger. Enter super soldier Creed, the man with whom Addie will fall in love. What ensues is the building and fated relationship between Creed and Addie, and the potential fall-out as a super soldier with even more superior DNA threatens to take over the world.

The world building introduces some of the background surrounding the discover of the alien DNA, and the soldiers who have been injected. As the experiment continues to grow, some of the soldiers will find love, their fated mates, something the US government and army refuses to accept. The premise is a familiar story but entertaining and interesting, none the less.

The relationship between Creed and Addie is one of immediate attraction. Our couple are drawn towards one another, and the frequency of their interactions is increasing the likelihood of a fated coupling but all is not well; Creed has other plans, and pushes away the woman that calls to his heart. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and powerful secondary and supporting characters including fellow scientists Ava and Katie; super soldiers Caleb and Julian, as well as Addie’s father General Lawrence. Everyone has an ulterior motive, and no one is safe when the soldiers take control.

HE IS …CREED Part 1 introduces some of the background and build up of a powerful army made up of super soldiers, soldiers created to be used and controlled but there is enough human DNA mixed with the alien DNA that proves power comes from all sources, and the combination may threaten the world. The fast paced premise is intriguing and compelling; the romance is provocative and fated; the characters are powerful and determined. HE IS …CREED Part 1 ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

Having only read Lisa Renee Jones's romance novels, I was curious and a little afraid to start reading her sci-fi series "Windwalkers". I rarely venture into other genres, but I decided to give this series a try, as I have not been disappointed with any of the author's books so far. It was clear after the first chapter that I had made the right decision.

One thing is for sure: if you are not engaged by the book, you will have difficulty following the plot. This is not a simple romance novel, it is full of important details and foreign expressions. Fortunately, Lisa Renee Jones provides a little dictionary-like guide at the beginning of the book, which is a great help in understanding unfamiliar terms. However, I was captivated from the first pages, so I followed the story carefully and did not feel lost.

The story centers around Addie Lawrence, who returns to Area 51 after two years to work with her father, the General. In Area 51, super soldiers called GTECHs have been created by injecting alien DNA. Addie is returning from Houston, where she and her mother were originally going to fly together to study alien organisms, but after her mother's death she decided to do it alone.

The male protagonist, Creed Monroe, is not only a GTECH, but perhaps one of the most powerful of them all. For Addie, however, this is exactly why he is taboo, because although they have no proof, they both believe that it was Addie's father, General Lawrence, who ordered the injection of the alien DNA. Nevertheless, the attraction between the two is undeniable, which only adds to the suspense of the story.

Once again, Lisa Renee Jones has proved herself a master of suspense. The book is full of secrets and mysteries, which, together with the special atmosphere of a near-war situation, keep the reader's interest. The sexual tension between the two protagonists is almost palpable, which makes the story all the more intriguing.

As we have come to expect from the author, the end of the first part does not bring the long-awaited answers, and leaves us with even more questions, so that we are eagerly waiting for the second part. Overall "He is... Creed" is a fascinating and engaging book, just as I expected from the author, and I can't wait to find out how Addie and Creed's story continues.

He is…Creed Part 1 is the first book in a trilogy by Lisa Renee Jones. This is a contemporary, sci-fi, romance series that is captivating and thought provoking. This story will draw you in and keep you on the edge of your seat as the story introduces you to the background and all the different players in this elite group of special forces supersoldiers that were betrayed and are now dealing with the fallout.

Supersoldier Creed Monroe and scientist Dr. Addie Lawrence’s are the main characters and I was fully enthralled by their connection and this story.

Dr. Addie Lawrence arrives at Nevada’s Area 51, otherwise known as Groom Lake it’s known for its government conspiracy theories and is home to her father’s base command, and now it is officially her new home. She is here to get to the bottom of reports that she was given anonymously and get to the truth behind what happened and who is responsible for this grave incident.

Creed is one of the Special Forces soldiers who were given immunizations laced with alien DNA, and now is living with the consequences, a GTECH soldier who can not only travel with the wind but also have superhuman strength and are immune to human illness. The perfect weapon. Creed is alone in this world, battling enemies on all fronts—the perception of him, the fear and judgment attached to who he has become, as well as whatever horrible things he sees with every mission he undertakes.

“I’ve seen many a woman drool over Creed, but I’ve never seen Creed look at anyone the way he looked at you by that elevator.”

Addie and Creed meet and you can feel the sparks fly off the page with their sizzling and powerful connection. There’s this insane rage of passion between them and “rage” is the only word that fits. It’s all-consuming. But Addie also feels the very human, gentler side of Creed that no one else does, as well as an energy between them that is as warm and wicked as it is tender. But will these two survive with the possibility of her father being behind this betrayal? Will these supersoldiers change the world and their own destiny? This ends in a cliffhanger! And I need part two asap!

I received an early copy and this is my honest review.

Addie is a scientist who is planning to work with her mother at NASA. Her father is a general that works at Area 51 on a topic secret project. When Addie’s mother dies suddenly, Addie’s path changes and she ends up working with her father on his project. That’s how she meets Creed. He is a soldier, but he is also something else. They shouldn’t be involved with each other, but they are drawn to each other.

The author creates a whole new world in this story. The setting is the United States and Area 51. The GTECH soldiers are a terrifying new kind of soldier that can travel from one place to another almost instantly. There are a lot of questions about how the soldiers were created and who did it to them. Addie has a steep learning curve when she arrives at Area 51 but quickly finds herself embroiled in intrigue and romance. I like that she is smart and capable. The author made Addie likeable, and I can imagine her existing in real life. Creed is an enigma. His innate drive to be with Addie was well done. He understands how dangerous it would be if anyone realized his feelings for Addie. The bad guy(s) are good. It adds a layer of tension to the story without overwhelming the story. When the GTECH soldiers had an uprising, it made sense. I generally hate cliffhangers, but I was glad the book ended because it was clear that there was a lot that would have to happen to complete this story. The ending of the story is shocking and made me want to dive right into the next installment.

This is a contemporary romance with supernatural elements. The setting is a military/government installation. It includes a high-speed romance with supernatural elements (think fated mate kind of stuff). You must read this series in order, or you’ll be lost. I will read more from this author in the future.

Fascinating read

WOW!!!

Area 51 (aka Groom Lake), super soldiers, alien DNA, military secrets, scientific research and development, lies, betrayal, and a forbidden romance, all combine to deliver an intriguing, suspenseful, and thought-provoking story. HE IS CREED is the first part to Lisa Renee Jones' Windwalkers trilogy/series, a fascinating PNR/SciFi read.

Creed Monroe is one of the elite, a Special Forces soldier who has been experimented on, injected with a vaccine containing alien DNA. Creed is now a GTECH super soldier who has super strength, can move with the wind, and other secret and unknown abilities. Addie Larence has come to Groom Lake to discover the truth behind reports she mysteriously received. She wants to learn what has occurred there and who the person responsible is, a person she believes is her father, General Lawrence, Commander of the base.

From the moment Creed and Addie first see each other the attraction between them is undeniable. Their passion is palpable, as though they are fated to be together. While Creed comes across as cold and disconnected, Addie witnesses a side to him that others don't see, he's tender, caring, and passionately wild. Will they be able to maintain a relationship that is all-consuming while battling with and against outside influences?

HE IS CREED was the perfect introduction to this series. LRJ meticulously builds her world, develops her characters, and engages her readers with fast paced action and the inclusion of a forbidden romance. It ends on a compelling cliffhanger, leaving me eagerly waiting for part 2.

This book has a terrific plot. It is a little too heavy on the sexy times. However, those sexy times actually were, while explicit, part of the plot. Creed and Addie are fated, perhaps because of science or perhaps just because. Their sexy times moved Addie from the outside of the Zodius program looking in as an observer to part of it. I enjoyed the reveal of some truly key pieces of information as Addie become more aware of what was happening. The author created a bit of a moral dilemma to because their are reasons to support and reasons to hate both sides of the debate. Addie is good, naive but good. Her father loves her in his own way but has done bad things maybe worse then she images. Even though he does it for the right reasons, he is still a gray character. I want to say Creed is good do but the twist with him and Julian, yipes. The story is about high science and building super soldiers but at the end of the day this story is a unique take on a tale as old as time - brother against brother.
I said this book felt familiar. Lisa had a book series years ago that I loved that started with Michael and I believe he was part of the Zodius project as well. The book is not available on Kindle so I have to rely on my memory.
Regardless, this is a good book which ends with a cliff hanger that leaves you waiting for book 2. Definitely worth the read, I may wish I waited until all 3 parts were available.

Creed was created as a weapon. He’s currently stationed at area 51, and a loyal soldier serving his country. He never knew he would be turned into what he is now, but now his skills are like no other and he can travel with the wind.

He never wanted to get involved with anyone, but when he meets Addie, things change. She’s the light to his darkness. Addie is the only one who could understand what he is, and she doesn’t make him feel like a monster.

With a war brewing, Creed will not allow himself, or others like him, to live as pawns and weapons.

This book was a lot of fun. I loved the super soldier concept. I totally think that there is a research lab or two trying to figure out how to make super soldiers real. Doesn’t seem like too far off to me considering where we are with AI and other tech. Never know what is coming next. The female main character in this book was also a lot of fun. She was a good match for the male main character and they fit together nicely. Their chemistry was fantastic and electrifying. I loved the pacing of this book, it grabbed my attention right from the start, and it didn’t let up the entire time. I also enjoyed how this one had some great world building and set things up for the future releases in the series.

Thank you so much to the author, Lisa Renne Jones, @lisarennejones for sending me a copy of this one in exchange for an honest review.

I can imagine this as a TV series and it would be fantastic! I find the premise so stimulating. These high-powered paranormal soldiers who are at the heart of a military experiment, surrounded with mystery and tension. 

This first part, which had me on my toes non-stop, is pure provocation. From the powerful male soldiers to the forbidden romance, the plot is teeming with incredibly exciting discoveries, sensual encounters and dangerous possibilities.

It revolves around a scientist who studies and researches these enhanced soldiers as she battles her own suspicions about her family's involvement.  She finds out astounding things at the same time as the reader. The book delves into the stunning capabilities of these men from the start which had me a bit confused for a minute. Yet they quickly become like that nuanced hero you always wanted to be or just fall in love with. The things they can do!

And I loved that Addie is so smart and capable, so sensible and wise with the information she is learning about the soldiers. I really enjoyed her process to understanding them, her curiosity. Not to mention her growing and illicit liaison with Creed who is so mysterious and powerful. Hot!
I'm really eager to know more of these men's powers and destiny. I think this story is captivating.

Full Review posted at A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog

I enjoyed the storyline behind this series, where the FMC is determined to find out all she can about the Windwalkers, the Special Force military members who were injected with a vaccine that ended up making them weapons. The issue is her father is behind what happened to the Windwalkers, and she doesn’t agree with what her father did and continues to do to the Windwalkers. She makes it known to one of them, who has shown an interest in her, Creed Monroe, that she is against her father using him and his men as experiments. The issue is that she fears Creed will never trust her due to her being her father’s daughter. Creed will not let his men become pawns, but he can’t seem to stay away from Addie, even though he should, especially since some of his men don’t trust her.

The first thing I thought after finishing this book was that Hollywood needs to make this book/series into a movie/TV series. This is something I would love to watch. I liked how Lisa set the first book with the world-building, introducing the key characters (good and potentially bad), and she even gave us other character POVs (not just the main characters, Addie and Creed). There is a cliffhanger, which I mentioned earlier in my review, and it’s one where you will be left in shock.

Overall, this is another great book from Lisa Renee Jones, and I can’t wait to read the rest of this series. This book definitely prevented me from going into a reading slump. It reminded me that PNR/Sci-Fi books will forever be my favorite subgenre(s) in romance, especially when it has the Fated Mates trope. =)

Cliffhanger: Yes.

Would I recommend this book? Yes.

Addie Lawrence and her parents live in Groom Lake Nevada. Her mom was a scientist and her dad is a general in the Army. She and her mother were headed to Houston to work with NASA on a project. On the way to the airport, her mother was in a car accident and dies. To honor her mother, Addie still heads to Houston to work with NASA. Meanwhile at home, her father is participating in Project Zodius.

Eighteen months later, the top secret Project Zodius GTECH Super Soldier Project is in full swing. Addie is now back in Groom Lake to work as a scientist on the project.

Master Sergeant Creed Monroe is one of the GTECH soldiers that was injected with alien DNA by General Lawrence. His eyes appear blue but it is camouflage. He asks Addie out but she declines. When Addie comes out of work to a flat tire, Creed tells her that he will fix it but wants them to eat together first. As a scientist, Addie is still learning about the GTECH soldiers but as a woman, she finds Creed attractive.

Will Addie find the answers she is looking for regarding Project Zodius? What is General Lawrence’s agenda? Will Creed and Addie act on their mutual attraction? Will Addie end up having to choose between her father and Creed?.

Supersoldiers, Alien DNA, Area 51, NASA, a car accident, unexpected bonded mates and way to many secrets. I don't just mean the secret missions either.
Creed Monroe has been disowned the military is all he has, being a part of Groom Lakes experiments now he believes is what and who he is.
Addie Lawrence is a young and very talented scientist who has been sought out already by NASA. Where she was supposed to work with her mom. Her mom however died in a car accident the morning they were supposed to leave.
After several years of being away from her father Addie starts receiving messages about what's happening at Groom Lake and it's not good. Someone is experimenting on soldiers in a backhanded way. As karma would have it some of their most elite soldiers were beginning to show violent tendencies no one could explain why or what was triggering them.
Again karma waves and takes a few more soldiers and says let's give them bonded partners. General Lawrence isn't happy about any of this. Being Addie's father though he wants her to figure out why this might be happening and how he can stop it.
But Addie she's not so sure daddy isn't the reason this is all happening.
But this is just the tip of the story there is so much more to discover, there is never a dull moment. I can't wait to discover everyone's secrets.

At the end of it all who will merge the winner?

Creed Monroe was starting to understand how unstable some of the men in his unit had become after the enhancements they underwent. He is playing the long game and figures he probably won’t come out the other side. He doesn’t care until he meets her.

Addie Lawrence knows her father has been up to something horrible. She’s finally come home to try and figure out what it is. And to help the soldiers in the experiment as much as she can. As a scientist she hope to be able to fix what her mother was trying to avoid. When she comes face to face with Creed everything changes.

In the middle of tug of war for survival and secrets along the way. Can these two find a way to survive and keep the bond intact.

I haven’t read anything of Lisa Renee Jones in a while and I wasn’t sure what to expect from this series. It is wonderful. I am excited about the world and characters that she is building in the Windwalkers. There are a lot of opportunities to grow the series. I was not expecting it to end the way it did but it did leave me on the edge of my seat waiting for the next installment.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "HE IS CREED" PART 1 This is a very interesting, intriguing, suspense filled story full of angst, steam, emotional turmoil, action, twists that keeps you turning the pages.
Master Sergeant Creed Monroe stationed at area 51 a soldier serving his country I Jr Ted with what he thought was a vaccinaction turns out to be an experiment that's turns him into a windwalker, a weapon with special skills & a darkness he fights daily, someone is creating soldiers they can't control.
Dr. Addie Lawrence is a scientist who goes to area 51 to see what her father General Lawrence is up to, she meets Creed one of the soldiers experimented on using alien DNA to create super soldiers without their permission, the secrets her father has kept from her could put her life in danger.
I definitely recommend to get this story Creed & Addie take you on quite the journey their feelings grow for one another she's the light to his darkness, but being together could cause problems he won't be anyone's pawn or weapon, he pushes her away, because no one is safe when the soldiers take over.
I'm so looking forward to "HE IS CREED" part 2 especially after that cliffhanger need to know what happens next.

HE IS CREED: Part 1 (Windwalkers, #1) . . . "They created a weapon. And he is that weapon..." That statement right there says it all. If that did not get you, the detailed glossary of the terms before the first line of the story would. I was pulled in further by the glossary. I wanted to experience them in the story. I have to say that I am very excited for the next part of 'He is Creed'. I don't want to give away anything. This was full service captivation. There was much to be fascinated about and much to think on. Could this happen now? Is this happening now. How far will one go to have the ultimate weapon? What would happen when they could not longer control that weapon? I loved it from the cover to the last tap on my screen. I have already pre-order the next installment. I will most certainly be re-reading this one before the when the next is released.

Along with all that was previously stated, there were a large number of terms to encounter in the story. This part did not hit all of them but there are still two more parts to consume. I am waiting.

❤️Thoughts❤️

I cannot say this enough: I LOVED this story! I'm already hooked and eagerly waiting for book 3 to come out.

The story follows Creed, who becomes a super soldier after he and hundreds of other soldiers are told they are receiving a vaccination, but instead, they are injected with an alien serum. This transforms them into windwalkers, with a few, including Creed, gaining additional powers.

We then meet Abbie, the general's daughter and a brilliant scientist. She always sees the best in people, even as she starts to doubt her father's true intentions. When she meets Creed, she knows he will be her undoing.

Creed and Abbie realize they are each other's "Life Bond," a fate that, if discovered, would put Abbie's life at risk.

I don't want to spoil anything else, but be aware that this book ends on a cliffhanger and there are two more books in the series!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5⭐️’s
🌶️🌶️💫/5🌶️’s

💉Addie grows up in this loving home, with her super scientist mother and this well-known general father…or so she thinks?!? Addie is an up and coming scientist following in her mother’s footsteps, but one day she comes home and before walking in she hears her parents arguing about a “project” that her father is working on. Hearing her mother say that “he’s moving too fast,” and her father saying “he has no choice”. Addie life is turned upside down the day her and her mother were supposed to leave for NASA…

🧪Creed is this LEGEND in the eyes of everyone who works at Groom Lake (formally known as Area 51). A loyal solider who was tricked and injected with something people couldn’t even imagine existed. He’s just going through the motions of being one of the deadliest weapons in the GTECHs, when he bumps into Addie on her first day at Groom Lake…

🧬Addie and Creed had no idea that their lives would be so intertwined when another GTECH and scientist decide that they have had enough and believe they can make a better world without Groom Lake (aka Area 51).

He Is Creed is the first in a new trilogy by Lisa Renee Jones and you will NOT want to miss it. Addie moved to NASA to escaper her Army general of a father. When she returns home, he’s in charge of a group of supersoldiers that everyone wants to control and no one really knows what they will become. the soldiers have fated mates but it is rare for them to be found…but Creed knows the first time he lays eyes on Addie that she is his. Except now Addie has to choose, because all is not as it seems in the facility where they are being housed. And the question of “sides” between her mate and her father can only end in heartbreak for her. But she’s no shrinking violet and she’ll fight for the men she loves with everything she has. This is a fast-paced, fated mates, love at first sight, with slight PNR touches. And I can guarantee that it will leave you wanting more. Ending on a cliff-hanger as she so often does, Lisa Renee Jones will have you begging for Part 2 right alongside the rest of us!

This is the next phase of soldiers . They are no longer human because they were unknowingly injected with alien DNA . This is spine tingling story about betrayal of humanity by the government trying to create stronger soldiers and a possible new race. Creed is one of those soldier involved. He meets Addie who is involved in so many ways. She is trying to find out what her mother and father were arguing about before her death. Plus she is trying to discover how her father a General of Area 51 is involved. Plus she wants to find a way to right all the wrongs. On top of all that she is Creed’s fated mate. The chaos is unending in this storyline. Why did Creed push Addie aways, why is he with Julian who has taken over Groom Lake or Rea 51. So many questions in this book so so few answers shed to light. I love a good thriller and this book hits all the marks. I can wait for the next one in the series to come available.

Oh, Lisa has done it again! I am a huge fan of her work, I was a little worried about this one as this is our of my regular genre, but it is not really taking a chance when it comes to her writing.... and she did not disappoint!

He is Creed book 1, there will be three in total and this one is pennies to start and get hooked in! This book is one you will not want to miss. I knew there would be a cliffhanger ending, but the waiting for book two is going to be hard! This is a series of books I will read again after they are all out for a true binge. I was hooked from the very start. Creed is a soldier you would not want to mess with and part of an experimental group of soldiers. Amelia is a scientist brought in by her father to study the soldiers he helped create. She can't deny her attraction to Creed and she tries to figure out how things happened for Creed to be who he is.

This story pulls you in and I am dying to know how Creed, Amelia, and the rest of the soldiers fair.

I was drawn in from the very first page. Creed is a character I want to know more about, reading more of this story I wonder just how much of this could be real with Area 51 and its secrets.
Addie Lawrence has come to Groom Lake/Area 51 to learn about the Windwalkers and Creed Monroe is one of the Gtech soldiers. Can they work together to keep the world safe?
I loved this story and it's beginning. It is filled with suspense, intrigue, mystery, Connection, super soldiers, power-hungry people, and those who want to set things right.
I can't recommend this one enough, it does end with a cliffhanger, so I suggest waiting until all books are released before starting if you hate cliffhangers, but this series is with reading.
**I received a copy of this book to read and review and this is my honest opinion**

He is Creed book 1 is one you will not want to miss. This is going to be an addicting series of books. I was hooked from the very start. Creed draws you in. He is the unknown and a soldier you would not want to mess with. Experimental group of soldiers and all the unknown ramifications that come with it, yep I'm solid. Creed is yummy and you feel the pull with Amelia from the start. Amelia a scientist brought in by her father to study the soldiers he jumped to create. She can't deny her attraction to Creed. I love how she tries to get to the bottom of things with all the road blocks thrown her way. There is a cliffy and I really want book 2 now. This just pulls you in and you want to know what will happen to Creed, Amelia, the bonded and the rest of the soldiers. I loved this so much and could not put it down. You need to one click this now.

He is Creed-Part One
By Lisa Renee Jones
Main Characters: Creed and Addie
I voluntarily and honestly reviewed this book without bias or persuasion from the author.
5 out of 5 stars
I am not a paranormal reader at all but since I love this author I thought I would try it and so far I love it. I have not had a book by Lisa that I didn't love. Creed is a soldier with some extraordinary powers because of some scientific vaccinations. Addie/Amelia is a scientist brought by her father to study the soldiers. So far I am thinking her father does not sound like a good guy. On the other hand, Creed is hanging on to his human side. Creed and Addie do have some chemistry right from the start. There is a cliffhanger and I eagerly await book 2 now.
