What would you do if the man you loved... wasn’t a man at all?

Poesy Wharton now knows the secret that Adam Walker has kept hidden from humanity for millennia, but at what cost?

Already struggling with the knowledge of Adam’s true nature, Poesy has to come to terms with the actions he took to save her life — actions that have left her more, and less, than human. When Adam’s unexplained absences cause a rift between them, Poesy is no longer sure she can trust him, so she must put her faith in a perfect stranger to uncover the truth before everything she cares about is lost.

But that won’t be easy.

Because the killing spree continues across the sleepy little community of Tybee Island, and before it’s over, Poesy will have to confront her biggest that the man she’s in love with may be a killer — or that a greater menace is coming, one that will change the face of humanity forever.

Protector is the sequel to Watcher in The Shining Ones series.

Once again Shawnee does it again... I really enjoyed reading Protector (The Shining Ones book 2). From the first page to the last I was hooked in... A definite page turner to the end.
Protector picks up where book one leaves off. Poesy and Adam are more closer then ever... With all the excitement of the two murders that happened in book one does life go on for Poesy? You need to read Protector to find out.
My favorite part of the book is Valentines day and how Adam takes Poesy on an overnight adventure. Such sweet and beautiful magic happened... If you really want know... You need to read Protector.
I loved reading Protector... And now I'm really curious about what will happen in book 3 of The Shining Ones series

This is a great series.

It's my second time reading it and it won't be my last. Ms. Small weaves a wonderful, fascinating, non-stop adventure that you can't put down. A must read!

I really loved this book.....The fact that these events took place in the beautiful southern Savannah/Tybee Island area was fun too. I'd just visited there for the first time and fell in love with the wonderful scenery and southern hospitality.

In this book Adam Walker changes from Watcher to Protector.....keeping Poesy out of danger proves to be a 24 hour job for our hero. You see, someone or something, is set on ending the young woman's life. The relationship between Adam & Poesy develops as well, their feeling for each other deepens. Though Adam knows it's not a good idea, the couple just can't deny the attraction.

This book was even more exciting and suspenseful than the first one. I found it very difficult to put this book down. Trying to figure out what will happen next, who is the good guy and who is the bad guy. A great tale for those who love a good mystery....I can't wait for the next book Betrayer to come out next year!!

Oh the havoc angels can cause.

Adam is trying to watch and protect Posey who now carries part of his angelic soul. Murdered girls is just the start. Posey's best friend leave, long lost fathers want to be in her life, a new friend who seems too know to much and for Adam a so called brother shows up. Who can you really trust in this seat gripping paranormal suspense. A 5 star story with laughter, tears and romance angel style.
