Plagued for months by recurring dreams of a suspended angel brutally stripped of his wings, Lynn managed the visions as best she could, but when her daughters begin experiencing the same horrific dreams, she can no longer ignore the dark images that haunt her. Had she missed something on that first stealthy visit to the lab in Ottawa? Or had this brutal attack occurred elsewhere, out of reach of those who might save this nameless angel? Were Lynn’s earlier dreams a glimpse into the past, the present, or were they foreboding messages of things to come?
As for the dreams of others…
Kris never dreamed he would see Jana again, nor did he ever consider she could be a part of his life. Then, like a daydream… there she was, standing at the entrance of his new restaurant.
Thaddeus’s dream of creating a superior race hasn’t wavered, though his pursuit of Ms. Westlake has taken a detour. His interests have shifted now to Brazil and a remote branch of science. And while Thaddeus is away, the mice are playing. Lyndon’s affections for Lane have grown, so much so, he’s requested an alternate tracker investigate the latest lead on this allusive target. Loyalties, too, are shifting while lies, deception, and secrets come to the forefront.
And Dr. Stone’s dreams, they have taken on a vivid realness that may be affecting her ability to counsel her latest patient.
What would you do if you sensed someone was in pain? Would you risk your own life to find them—save them? What if the loyalties you believe were solid shifted because of your actions or inactions? Would you put yourself in danger to pursue the answer? What if your actions changed… everything?
Book 6, Haven Found, is the next in The Guard Trilogy Extended Series - The Guards of Haven. Although the original three books of The Guard Trilogy can stand alone as a complete story, and even though these next novels adhere to the original storyline, readers should complete the trilogy before going on to read the next books in the extended series.
N. L. Westaway is the author of the urban fantasy/paranormal mystery, The Guard Trilogy, and The Guard Trilogy Extended Series. Audiobook Versions Now Available

Nancy’s path to her passion for writing novels was a convoluted path, and her love of reading didn’t arrive until her late 30's, despite her mother and siblings being voracious readers. Canadian born in the 60s, she was raised in a large extended family of boys where she learned to keep her head and her elbows up and to give as good as she took. She currently lives in a beautiful house on the beach in South Florida with her husband and their lab-pit mix rescue, Kinney. She learned to downhill ski at the fresh age of 3, she loves a good cup of coffee, adores red-wine, and enjoys pizza and tacos every chance she gets. She also has several tattoos and is always thinking about her next.
Her life’s diversity—as you can further read on her website, has given her in-depth knowledge and understanding into the wondrous and often emotional world of human beings and their environments.
At the risk of sounding repetitive… I am once again blown away by this awesome series! It - just - keeps - getting - better! I’m in love with the characters and their complex roles and traits…Though a few of them are less desirable!
With this book #6 in the series N.L. Westaway has not only kept the continuity and flow of the story running along at a tight pace, but has also dialled up the mounting tension as the story evolves to reveal some dark and sinister forces at play. As old layers of the story are slowly revealed, new and more complex layers are put in place, making the tension build towards what will be an exciting outcome.
I was trying (unsuccessfully) to pace myself reading as I’ve caught up now and will have to wait for book #7! I can’t wait for that one to come out as this one has tantalised us with some interesting developments and truly gripping plot twists. All culminating in a real cliff hanger of an ending…bring on book #7!
Haven - Found is the continuation of Lynn’s journey with her family and friends - many of whom are angels. It’s set in three main locations - Ottawa, Miami and New York, providing unique perspectives of each location through the author’s eyes, as she grew up in Ottawa and now lives in Florida. The race to find and protect the halflings, as well as her own family leads Lynn into dangerous territory, although she never backs down from a challenge.
I love this series, as I am an avid paranormal reader. I also feel connected to the author because of her Canadian heritage. I enjoy reading the little tidbits that she includes about important locations and historical references. But most of all I feel the edginess of the storyline and how it relates to the characters.
If you are planning on reading this book, you have to start at the beginning of the series “The Guard” trilogy. These novels are not stand alones.
NL Westaway has completely hooked me with this series! There was so much going on in this book that I couldn't put it down. The characters are written so well that I get very involved with the emotions on the page. I am still thinking about the "Romeo and Juliet" relationship that has been building throughout the last couple of books. I cannot wait for the next book in this series.
I really love this series. The plot is unique and the characters are well developed. I am really coming to this this group as friends. Can't wait for the next book.
Original plot keeps it interesting. Hard to overlook the same issues with writing at this point of the series. Sadly, I will DNF the series going forward.
