Dark Warrior Alliance #19
Guild Master
When the deadly drug Angel’s Kiss returns to the Tehrex Realm, Evzen Raziel, Guild Master of the sorcerers, makes it his mission to destroy those responsible. The drug threatens to expose his world to humans and is destroying countless lives of the supernatural. He would rather meet his own demise than allow that to happen. Incensed that one of his own is responsible, Evzen leaves the safety net of his non-violent cocoon and strategizes to execute the guilty. His plan fails miserably when he, along with fellow Dark Warriors and trainees, are injured and captured. Ultimately, the loss they suffer is irreparable and grievous. His female captor, Braelynn, stirs anything but the loathing he should feel toward her. Despite the danger the female poses, Evzen convinces Braelynn to set him and the warriors free, and brings her into the midst of the Dark Warrior Alliance, ignoring the warning signs that indicate she’s fulfilling her evil mother’s agenda.
Braelynn, sole heir to a despicable sorceress, is forced to choose between her mother’s legacy and an unknown life within a realm where she’s hated from day one. It should be an easy decision, after all, since she’s accused of consorting with demons by her new ‘friends’.
After the death of a revered warrior, Braelynn decides to help the irresistible Evzen held prisoner in her mother’s dungeon. As truths unfold, she discovers her mother lied her entire life, and Braelynn isn’t sure where to turn, or who to believe. As her newly-acquired powers spin out of control, Braelynn threatens the stability of the Tehrex Realm. As an outsider, she’s forced to accept the fact she is her mother’s daughter. Struggling for acceptance, Braelynn must look deep inside and determine where her loyalties lie, but that threatens to deprive her of the sexy sorcerer she’s inexorably drawn to.
Can their magical passion withstand the trials and tribulations, or will their pasts dictate their future happiness?

The Dark Warrior Alliance continues on with the 19th book in the series, which is a good long life for a series.
The title of the book had me thinking that it would focus on the Guild Mast, which happens to be Jace's cousin as he took over what should have been Jace's position when Jace was kidnapped and held hostage by Lady Angelica. Evzen Raziel has taken his position seriously and did everything he could to guide the sorcerers while Jace was missing, but he always feels a little lacking, especially since this was never suppose to be his position. The idea that he might actually have a fated mate has never really crossed his mind.
While being kidnapped in another dimension, or somewhere, Evzen is introduced to Braelynn and after initial reluctance, she does what she can to help Evzen and the other escape and get back home. Evzen is sure that she is his, but the fact that she is in act the daughter of Lady Angelica should create a number of problems.
This book is written a few chapters of Evzen and Braelynn's story then a few chapters of Izzy's story on Khorth. normally I wouldn't complain about that, because we need to keep up with Izzy even while other things are happening, but in this book I felt like it cut into the main storyline. In fact, it almost felt like Izzy was the main storyline and Evzen was the side story.
One of the things that I have loved about the whole series is the storyline between the couples, it is never easy, true love or fated mates have to over come all kinds of obstacles. Unfortunately in this story, even given that Braelynn knew nothing about mates, they meet and were planning their ceremony for the very next full moon, there was no obstacles, nothing and that just didn't feel right to me. I think back to the first couple books, even the Rowan Sisters books, and they were obstacle after obstacle thrown at the couples that they had to get through.
Even having said all that, I still love this series! I love the fated mates and the willingness of the partners to do whatever it takes for each other, it is just something that is so enduring and something that everyone dreams of experiencing. I will continue to read and enjoy this series as long as the authors keep writing.

Every time a read a DWA book, it's an adventure. There is so much going on and the family is growing like crazy. This time, we're hopping Realms. This takes the storyline to so many other levels. As a reader, holy wow is there a lot going on. All the action, suspense and love keeps you glued to the pages. One thing this series has never lost is family and loyalty to one another. At book 19, that's saying something. The journey for Evzen and Braelynn was not easy. Nothing worth keeping is. What it was, it was sweet, honest, true and deep. Neither ever doubted the other, they just had to trust themselves. That's what's happening in the Tehrex Realm....Koth, now there's a whole lot of trouble brewing. Things are going to get interesting. While these amazing authors gave as closure and a HEA for Zen and Brae, my Goddess did they leave us with unanswered questions. I have no idea what to expect from the next book. But at any rate, it will be just as amazing as the others. I recommend this to all PNR lovers and personally can't wait for more. This is my voluntary opinion of an advanced copy I received. (How lucky was I)

Pleasure to read
I have read 24 books in this series and enjoyed every one .
lots of excitement and action. The erotic scenes are a bit much and highly repetitive, but sex tends to be . Every male character makes love the same way pin both realms.
I wish the editing were better. Too many mistakes. Does anyone read this stuff before you make it available on kindle? I would happily read and edit for silly mistakes for you for free! Distracts readers from the wonderful and heartwarming stories that these two talented writers achieve.

With the return of the deadly Angel’s Kiss drug returning to the Tehrex Realm, Evzen Raziel has made it his mission to destroy those responsible. As Guild Master of the sorcerers, he is incensed that one of his own is responsible and during the plan to execute the guilty, Evzen and his fellow Dark Warriors are taken captive and their female captor stirs anything but the loathing her should feel. Braelynn, sole heir to a despicable sorceress is forced to choose between her mother’s legacy and an unknown life within a real where she is hated from day one. As truths unfold, Braelynn must look deep inside and determine where her loyalties lie.
The romance in this story is sweet, challenging and sizzling with chemistry as these strong, compelling characters try to work toward a happily ever after that has some overwhelming obstacles. Braelynn is naïve, sweet but with a hidden core of strength that she can’t see and Evzen is just the sorcerer to help her reach her full potential. There is no doubt in the readers’ minds that this couple belong together, no matter how many of the Dark Warriors protest.
But this fast paced and thrilling suspenseful plot is a double whammy of excitement as there is so much happening in the Tehrex realm and in the Khoth realm, so not only are readers realm hopping, they are experiencing all the intrigue, exhilarating thrills and in both realms but they are experiencing the lives and feeling of the wonderful characters in this series. Izzy is one the most fascinating and delightful of those characters are readers will be amazed at all the changes she has gone through as well as how much trouble manages to find her. Once readers start this story, there is now way they can put down this spectacular blend of excitement, suspense, passion and magic.

I really liked Evzen and Braelynn's story. Evzen is the head of the sorcerers in the Tehrex Realm. He got the position due to Jace's captivity at the hands of Angelica. Braelynn is Angelica's daughter, so a more unlikely pairing can not be imagined. Braelynn's mother has kept not only a captive, but in the dark about her magical powers for her entire life. She believes her powers are weak and she is only good for opening portals to her mother's dungeons. She has no idea who her father is or what her mother was really up to. When Sterling imprisons some of the Dark Warriors, Braelynn is not sure what to do when some of them are close to death. When one of them dies she finally is convinced to take a stand and helps the rest escape. But what will this mean for her?

Braelynn is a sweet girl.
What the hell is wrong with Bhric? He doesn't like Braelynn Even after it is proven she's telling the truth. He still appears to hold a grudge after she marries Evzen. Glad to see Evzen finally get someone! Although angel's kiss is still out there by the end of the book. I hope Braelynn follows through on the threat to sell all her mom's properties. It's never mentioned again after Evzen talks to her about it. Angelica was a real piece of trash. Anyone who would do that after giving birth is scum. And she never taught Braelynn anything! It's inexcusable!

Love Evzen and a Brae!
I have to say, Brae is too sweet and Evzen is too perfect! I adore their story. I was a little worried in the beginning when it came out she was Angelica’s daughter but seen where you were going with it and absolutely loved it. Getting more back story with Izzy, Elsie, and Zander is a huge plus for me, Z is the reason I fell in love with the Tehrex realm in the first place. Great story and great job on keeping the story fresh with the 19th book in the Dark Warrior Alliance!

Whilst back with the DWA trapped in hell in one of Angelica's strongholds and Evzan feels he is responsible for events that happen there. It's a sad start to this latest book in the series but the story line is full of action packed adventure throughout the realms. Then of course there is romance, however not without uncertainty.
This is a wonderful series for those who enjoy a visit to the paranormal with badass sexy heroes and heroines. My one beef is the editing as I found a number of typos in the book therefore only 4 stars. That apart I really enjoyed it.

Is she good or evil?
Loved it.
Braelynn is Angelica's daughter. Evzen meets her when several warriors go to Angelica's castle thinking it was abandoned. Instead several warriors get hurt during a fight with other sorcerers, hellhound and demons.
Does Braelynn have evil and darkness in her like her mother? Stunning things that Angelica did to Braelynn area revealed. But who is her father?
Izzy is growing fast and is taking adventures of her own. Kelsie has a surprise to reveal too.

Another amazing read in this series that held my attention from the start. Evzen and Braelynn’s connection is off the charts. They are sweet and sexy together and I really enjoyed their story. Izzy still is in danger and can’t return home. I love Blaze and Izzy together and there friendship is unbreakable. I can’t wait too read the next book in this series.
I voluntarily reviewed this Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

Evzen
This KU library selection features Evzen, the Guild Master for sorcerers. After Lady Angelica's death, Evzen believed they had put a stop to the sale of the deadly drug, Angels Kiss. But recently bodies of supes have been found with their other side showing. The Alliance has a list of potential addresses of Lady A's properties they obtained in an effort to track the sorcerer who has taken on Lady A's bad habits. Or is it a sorceress?

This love story was perfect. The story carried on seamlessly from book #18. I really appreciate that the authors don't spend alot of time rehashing previous storylines. They take into account their loyal readers know and understand what is going on from book to book, and just provide the right amount of information to refresh our memories as needed. I can't wait to read the next installment!!

Guild Master
I was sad that Nikko died before Evzen and the others could get him home. I wish Braelynn had been able to locate Sterling so her mate and the Dark Warriors could get rid of him.

Proofread please.
Tell me what to do with this sentence: "Can we keep take them home?” This is an example of dialog. Story would have better if more attention paid to editing.
