The Kings of Whitehaven: Her Protectors

by Stacy Rush

There was a time when I was afraid of them…
When I would do anything to be able to get away from the Kings.

But then, my tormentors came for me, and they proved that there were worse monsters out there than the Kings of Whitehaven.

The horrors I lived through, at the hands of my tormentors, had me rethinking my feelings for the three men that would do everything to save me.

If I learned anything, it’s that nothing is ever what it seems, and the people who you thought were the ones you could trust were anything but that...and the ones you had once tried to free yourself from are the same ones that would burn down the whole damn town just for you.

They were once my Keepers, but now, they will forever be my Protectors.

What a sweet revenge and beautiful end to the Whitehaven trilogy. Although I’m sad to see this chapter closed I’m sure it’ll become one of my rereads.

Well hot damn, now I know why Saints And Sinners was so spicy!! As for the plot and storyline, just when you think you have things figured out, plot twist!! You do not. I absolutely loved this trilogy and I loved that it kept me on the edge of my seat and trying to figure out what was going to happen next. There's a reason Stacy rush is one of my favorite authors, job well done Stacy.

This is the third and final book of The Kings of Whitehaven. What a ride that Kambree, Trip, Garrett, and Xander have given us. The book is action packed, spicy, betrayal, and revelations. I read this in one sitting because it was that good. As I was reading, I thought I had figured out what was happening only to get a curve ball. All the characters dealt with so much and I loved that it ended in HEA. That, after everything that was done to Kambree to take her down it only made her stronger. My heart went out to Paxton but loved that she had Hawk by her side.

How do I start this. Just wow!!! You out did yourself, It got the perfect ending it deserved and seeing all of the revenge, well let’s just say it really is best when served cold. The story was amazing and I really did not want it to end. Reading book one and two is a must to fully understand the story and when you do you will love them and this ending. Highly recommend going to check it out. And as always check those triggers.

😲 😱..

that last chapter was bliss 😍.. an pulled this trilogy together so beautifully disastrous.

The way the FMC gets everything she deserves was bad ass to say the least. To see her grow from everything she's had to overcome with the betrayal of loved ones 💔. Then we have the beautifully broken Kings, men that endure their side of mis-haps and betrayal along with numerous other unsaid things.
this is dark and should be read with caution ⚠️

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟/5

This book was everything I needed and more. Finally all the chapters are closed and all our questions are answered. Kambree’s character development with all 3 books is absolutely phenomenal and is a true piece of art. This story is so good and is absolutely another fan favorite of mine! Highly recommend!

And that’s it folks.. the third and final book of The Kings of Whitehaven Trilogy. What a beautiful and absolutely wonderful… yet sad time for us all. I’m so sad this is over but what wild ride we had. Kambree, Xavier, Garrett, and my favorite Trip, will always be on my mind. This trilogy will definitely be one of my rereads. Stacy you never cease to amaze me with your work.

This book ended perfectly! I loved every twist and turn Stacy wrote in here! Hands down this trilogy is a must read. I do have to remind everyone reader to please read the trigger warnings before diving in. Bree really did get her revenge and she turned into this amazing woman that really showed everyone that they messed with the wrong woman and her kings. Review by:Qu33nsara

OMG guys this book is such an amazing book. It’s the last series and you just say oh yes, please the revenge that. they get oh it’s so sweet. Please make sure you read the first two before you read this one because yeah you won’t understand what’s going on otherwise but please make sure you check those warnings. Let’s just say yeah they are posted for a reason.

This was the perfect ending to the best trilogy! Hot and spicy and edge of your seat reading. Kambree went from shy and weak to a freaking badass. The kings, will always be my favorites. Stacy is such an amazing author whose words reel you in and never let you go!

Another series complete! The twists and turns were wild! Kambree and her Kings finally got their HEA. It took them a while and they had to face some beasts but they got there. The banter was amazing between the mc.

This book was incredible! Her Protectors is the third book in the Kings of Whitehaven series by Stacy Rush. I couldn’t put this book down! The storyline was incredible through all three books and the way it carried into this book and how intense the scenes in this book were. The twists and turns you never see coming!
I don’t think it could be a true Stacy Rush book if we didn’t have moments when we didn't want to throw the book across the room at the anger we feel with some of the characters. ( I mean we don’t because that’s book abuse and we don’t do that, but the book rage is there)
I truly think this is a book and series that needs to speak more for itself, and with Stacy’s book they absolutely do. Also if you're here on book 3 you're more than ready for this book already because of what she did to us in the last book! (yeah Stacy we are all still salty about that haha, so worth it, best author ever.) Stacy once again you have outdone yourself and this was a phenomenal read! Thank you for always giving us readers your everything and making amazing books.
This is book 3 again make sure you read the first 2. This is a very dark series so make sure you read those Triggers in the front before you start, do not just go into this blind!!!
Now if this somehow is your first stop, before you head back to find book 1 to get started let me personally say, “Welcome to Whitehaven.”

This book was amazing! I couldn't put it down! It lured me in and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time! I seriously don't know how Stacy does it but I absolutely loved this book. The plot was plotting and twists were twisting! THANKS FOR THE AMAZING BOOK!
