Keltor is book one of the Guardian Archives.  Keltor is an immortal protecting the human race from shadow demons.  He has been immortal for a very long time, and despite his other immortal brothers he has remained very alone.  After the death of his wife and child he has never sought solace in the arms of another that is until he meets the Keeper, Liz.Being a sucker for a warrior with a thick Irish brogue, I fell head over heels with Keltor right away.  He is quite the alpha male, which makes him utterly irresistible! I also had great sympathy for his character and his turmoil.  Liz is a strong leading female, she finds out she is a Keeper, which essentially means she can tip the balance between the light and dark sides.  I like the way she took her new found knowledge of this whole other world she knew nothing of in stride.  The chemistry between Keltor and Liz was smoldering from the very beginning and I couldn't wait to read more.  There were also very strong supporting characters in the novel such as Dante and Iliyana that I definitely look forward to seeing again.Keltor is a wonderful and imaginative story that sucks you into a whole other realm.  There was action and suspense that surrounded a sexy love story between two really compatible characters. I was really attracted to the fact that the tale was both dark and beautiful.  There were some grammatical errors, but being that this is an ARC there are still final edits to be made so I really didn't let it affect my opinion of the quality of the authors work.  Sage takes the reader on one amazing ride where two worlds can simultaneously coexist, and warriors and demons abound.If you are a fan of romance, paranormal, or fantasy give Keltor a try.  This is a wonderful start to a very promising series!**Reviewed for VampireRomanceBooks.com**
