Guardians of the Empire #6
The General
T’Harris isn’t the most demanding of the Guardians of the Empire but, like Gabriella, he hasn’t been beaten on the battlefield yet. He is also a master swordsman, like she is. When not practicing, or performing his duty to the Empire as one of the guardians, he is lighthearted although he refuses to take a back seat to anyone, if pushed.
He vows to win her through his gentle ways and charm. Is it enough? As she uses her talent to see if she can outwit the Fates, she realizes this is a battle she cannot win, for history tells her that no Elf who ever tried has. They also have a common enemy, one they feel they will need to be united against to defeat.
When Gabriella is mistaken for a common Elven maiden and taken to enemy lands, T'Harris must fly to her aid, for this is his love, his Life Mate, and one he has promised to guard with his life. Can he get to her before they realize who and what she is? Or will he lose her to the point of an enemy sword?

The General by M.A. Abraham is the 6th book in her Guardians of the Empire series. Brief refresher: This series is set in the same world as Abraham’s wonderful Elven Chronicles series, but thousands of years after that series ended; with all surviving humans having been granted a land called The Valley, to live in peace and prosperity.
Finally, we get to spend time with Gabriella and T’Harris, as they both know they are Life Mates. T’Harris, who has known for awhile that she is his Life Mate, has waited for the right moment, not to pressure her, and when they go head-to-head in a sword battle, the time has arrived. Gabriella is an unbeatable master swordsman, and a true General, being a descendant of Gabriel. T’Harris is one of the best Guardians of the Empire and also a master swordman, and almost equal to Gabriella.
In a short time, she will accept that he is her Life Mate, but before they can bond, she is kidnapped by soldiers of King Felix and his sons, who have a bounty on Gabriella. T’Harris will sense Gabriella being in danger, and all the Guardians travel to rescue her. During the battle, Gabriella will finally bring forth her dragon, who is a beautiful iridescent white dragon; and she manages to destroy their weapons, and leave the King and his family with many loses, as well as revengeful. With T’Harris severely injured, Gabriella, and all the warriors return to the Valley to try and save his life.
What follows is an exciting wild adventure with Gabriella, in the forefront, as well as enjoying seeing the love between Gabriella and T’Harris. The Elves continue to work toward eventually moving everything to the Elven Lands that were hidden many years ago, as the oracle has told them they need to bring the Sentinels back home. The storyline also continues with Evart, his brothers and father King Felix, especially after the heavy destruction and loss. Evart, Sonya and Alexis at the moment are happy to be safe with the Elves, away from their evil King. Personally, I thought too much time was spent with King Felix as we came closer to the end.
I do not want to say too much more, as it would be spoilers, with a lot going on. It was an interesting story, giving us a glimpse of the future, and hopefully more of Gabriella and T’Harris. I loved seeing many of our heroes again, and I absolutely love Gabriella. The General was a well written and entertaining story. A great addition to the series, focusing on our wonderful Gabriella. You should read this series, and start with the first book to get to know all the characters.
