Warriors Surprise

by Teresa Gabelman

Some surprises were never meant to exist.

The Warriors have learned the hard way that life can change in the blink of an eye. Just when they think they've seen it all, one impossible revelation threatens to send shockwaves far beyond the compound.

With every answer comes another question, and some truths bring dangers no one could have imagined.

Babies!!!

Ok, was about to start my to-do list when I saw this book was available. I just sat down and started reading.

Theresa, I love you. You are my absolute favorite author. However, you are killing me!!! More mysterious things to wonder about till another book comes out???? I’m old Theresa, I need to know the answer before I die!!! Seriously I’m old!

Ok so Sid still cracks me up. A cork!
Really? I thought Sloan should have a girl but now I think Sid was the better choice! Love the name!

Love that little Drew is coming out as a “Daniel” part two. And I did not remember Jamie the sister but wow Daniel may get a Mate. I think that’s awesome. He deserves one.

I hope Dawn and Kent get mated but I think it’s a given so let’s move on to answers….. what does Jamie see, will Drew become a “super” witch, will Sid and Lana have a Maximus, will other warriors have babies, I’m praying for Duncan to have one, is there such a thing as a Demon sniffing Warrior Dog (oh come on one of you have wondered too), what powers will the babies have, a disappearing invisible power like Steve’s would be hilarious for Sid’s baby or turning into a snake so Sid can nickname her Viper, though I think a simple human baby would help Sloans blood pressure. I have more but need to start on the forgotten to-do list.

Another Addictive, Heart-Stealing Winner

Wow! Teresa Gabelman has done it again! Warrior’s Surprise is everything I love about this series and so much more. From the brilliant characters and sizzling chemistry to the humour, drama, action and emotional moments, I was completely hooked from beginning to end.

I absolutely love being back with these warriors and the people who make their world so special. The banter had me smiling, the romance had me swooning, and the one liners had me giggling for hours and kept me turning the pages because I just couldn’t put it down.

Teresa has such a fantastic way of bringing her characters to life that you feel like you’re part of their world. It’s like catching up with old friends while falling in love with new ones all over again.

I never want this series to end! If you’re a fan of the Protectors, you’ll understand exactly what I mean. Another fantastic addition to an amazing series, and Teresa has once again left me wanting MORE!

Addictive from start to finish 🖤

I can not get enough of these warriors.
Warrior Suprise was a fantastic addition to the series , non stop action, danger and witty humour,, I just loved every thing about it. It also added to my Sid addition, GAH! I love him.

Sloan has me all kinds swooning in this book too. I just adore him and Becky.

This book also sets the scene nicely for more Daniel and Kent they both deserve their stories they are going to be fantastic.

This cover is definitely my favourite from the series, and when you read it you'll understand why.

Bring on the next book, i will never get enough.

Thank you, Teresa!

This is a wonderful gift to the readers from author Teresa Gabelman. The beloved Protectors Series has great characters and this book delivers updates on our favorites. I loved that we get a full picture on current events and future storylines. This book was so good and I would highly recommend it to all lovers of the Protector Series. Five stars and I can wait for more of these beloved characters. Jump on board, start at the beginning or just get updated the series is epic. Peace out.

An addition to The Protectors series always puts me in a good mood and lifts my spirits. This book brings joy along with expected additions to the warriors’ families. I must admit that Sid wears on my nerves. I’m not sure why people give Steve such a hard time when he’s much less annoying than Sid. Readers get to know more about recent characters that have come into the fold and meet a new one that I think will have a significant role. Not only did this book warm my heart but it has me eagerly awaiting the next book!

[Donna Bossert · Rating 5 out of 5]

There are absolutely no words that accurately describe this book. Phenomenal, Epic, Awesome do not do it justice.
The emotional roller-coaster it took me on was epic!!

Sloan had me crying
Sid had me laughing and
Daniel had me worried.
Only TG could write that twist at end. It left my jaw on the ground and I haven't been able to pick it up since finishing the book.
I can not wait for the next book.

TG always delivers!

Great story

Wow. I love this series. This book was jam packed. I couldn't stop reading. I laughed and even got teary eyed a few times. The setup for both Daniels and Kent's stories was great. I look forward to the next book.

[Chakooka · Rating 5 out of 5]

Laughter is the BEST plot in a story!!

I love this story line. As much as I was intrigued with the new dangers my favorite vampires face ; I couldn't stop laughing at their antics. This is such a good read. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.
