title: Tempting Adam
author: Horner, Lyn
description: Description for Amazon He walked away from her once meaning to protect her and broke her heart. Can she forgive him and overcome his stubborn resistance to love? Guardian of Danu, Adam Dvorak has the power to make plants grow with a mere touch, but will he allow love to grow? An agronomist teaching better farming methods in a semi-desert region of northern Kenya, he has an accident and ends up in the local hospital where, to his shock, his former love Ellie Graham is a nurse. He’d never expected to see her again. Ellie is equally shocked to see him. How could fate be so cruel, putting her in Adam’s path again? Her bruised heart tells her to avoid him, but circumstances dictate otherwise, and their mutual attraction soon flares to life. Will the temptation to accept Ellie as his mate conquer Adam’s fear for her? The High Guardian’s arrival and the pernicious Hellhounds may force him into a difficult decision as this saga builds toward a climax in the eighth and final book, A Might Chieftain. The series so far: There are seven Guardians, each possessing a unique psychic talent and an ancient scroll containing a secret prophecy not to be revealed until mankind is ready to listen. Vicious “Hellhounds” seek to steal the prophesies and use them for their own evil ends. When romance enters the picture, expect adventure, suspense and sizzling adult love scenes. Rescuing Lara (Book 1): Set in Ireland and Texas, this 2015 Paranormal Romance Guild Reviewers Choice winner stars Lara Spenser, a Guardian running for her life. Enter Connor O’Shea, a hunky ex-Special Forces biker Lara hires as her bodyguard. Irish folklore and prophesy, murderous villains, and steamy romance make this a wild ride. Decoding Michaela (Book 2): Galvestonian, mind-reading heroine Michaela Peterson is stunned by news of the High Guardian’s murder. She is attracted to Dev Medina, the rugged messenger, but fears he may be out to steal the scroll she guards. Can Dev win her trust and unlock her heart before the Hellhounds capture her? Capturing Gabriel (Book 3): Navajo beauty Josie Tseda tracks down Gabriel Valdez in the mountains of Colombia, meaning to bring him to the Guardians’ haven in her homeland. Instead, he takes her prisoner. Josie doesn’t mean to fall for him, and Gabriel resists trusting her with his secrets much less his love, but the heart has a mind of its own. Touching Charlotte (Book 4): Empathic Guardian Charlotte Dixon and Tristan Jameson, an ex-NYC cop burdened by grief, meet at a Park Avenue party. He needs healing and love, but how can a man romance a woman who can’t stand to be touched? Getting past Charlotte’s barriers while protecting her from Hellhounds proves his ultimate challenge. Profiling Nathan (Book 5): In this chilling murder mystery/sexy romance, Guardian and ex-con Nathan Maguire is content inking tattoos in Tampa, Florida, until FBI profiler Talia Werner walks into his shop and turns his life upside down. To save her pretty neck, he must help catch a serial killer. His deadly psychic gift may come in handy. Beguiling Delilah (Book 6): French Guardian Delilah Moreau and her protector Leon Tseda run a life-and-death race across France, then on through the canyons of Utah and Arizona. The two are no spring chickens, but they’re not too old for a second chance at love. Their journey is fraught with danger, excitement and steamy, mature romance.
