Adam (The Protectors #5)

4 stars I dont know how I feel about Adams book. Im late to this series, so Im not sure if Teresa Gabelman intended this to be somewhat like a novella instead of a full-length book. I like Adam because while he cares for Jill like a sister, he also respects her and takes her being as a warrior in training seriously.

It seems like his character has more impact on other books than his. Ive read Damon, Jared, Duncan, Sid, Slade, Jax, The Invisible warrior (Steve) and seems like Adams story was just a filler leading on to Slade’s book. This was supposed to be Adam’s book… Adam and Angelina’s story, but other “couples” -Sid and Lana, Slade and Jill, even Sloan and Caroline (who didn’t end up together) – upstaged them.

I still liked it. Other than the reasons I stated, it’s still a good read. That is why I gave it 4 stars.

I just love how the author continues to build the overriding story while focusing on one couple. Each of her characters become such an intrical part of every book and I am totally invested in the outcome of the war and if they each find their HEA. I am so glad Adam found his Angel, too bad it took him a while to see past his pain to the truth. Thank goodness for Jill, shes always there to slap some sense into a warrior. I cant wait to read the next book and see how the mighty will fall, yep, fall all over themselves to secure their mate and her happiness. The perfect element to a fantastic story.

Teresa Gabelman created such a story with this series. You only see the relationships grow and get deeper between the characters with every book. As a reader she did what is hard to do and connected you to each character, because you feel every emotion and hang on every word. Loved the ride she took us on in this book and feel she is far from over. She brings in New characters but you learn a lot about those who you fell for in the beginning so she took it to another level. I cannot wait for the next book and to see what happens to all the VC Warriors which to me includes Adam, Jill, Steve but also their loved ones. But I am patiently waiting slash losing my mind awaiting to see Jill and Slade stop tip toeing. All in all this author is amazing!!!

Adam’s story ended abruptly…like I got to the end and thought..”wait..this is it?”. Maybe its because we’ve already watched Adam and Angelina’s relationship grow through all the other books but still, I expected a little more than this. It was disappointing for me. So much of Adam’s book was spent on building the angst between Jill and Slade, Sid and Lana’s current relationship, and the new connection between Sloan and Caroline. I do enjoy catching up with old characters and being introduced to new characters but I also like to focus solely on the main character that the book is about. If we’re going to reflect on old characters here and there then I’d like to see more on the first three vampires – Damon, Jared, and Duncan. They were my favorite..the originals who started this whole series. Still love the series and will definitely continue reading.

Since I first discovered this series, I have become dependent on it like blood to a Vampire, a full moon to Werewolves, water to grass, and well you get my point. I LOVE this series and have reread each book at least twice. Each book gets better and better because the stories keep developing and getting more intriguing and complicated like all great series should. This author is amazing and where her mind takes us into this world is amazing. Its hard for me to pick one VC Warrior as a favorite because, really, they each have their own special qualities and each one can hold their own with one another; Damon-silent but will rip the head off anyone who dare harms his girl; Jared (my favorite)-sexy, outgoing, funny but will do anything for Tessa damn the consequences; Duncan-quiet hero, who takes his job seriously, but would give it all up for his son and Pam in a heartbeat; Sid-sarcastic, great cook, loyal, loner, finally found someone to share his life with and who can keep him in his place; and then there is Adam who surprised me with his story, and I actually learned a lot about him and respected him more than I did previously. I cannot wait for SLADE. I think his story has been the most anticipated since he made his first appearance way back when. The tension with him and Jill just keeps building and I can’t take it anymore, I want this book out now. With that said, I hope there will be a Sloan story, as well, and other characters introduced. Keep doing what you doing Teresa-you’re only getting better.
