Ancient Guardian by Katie Reus
4.0
I love the Ancients Rising Series so much and Ancient Guardian was no exception. This was my first fantasy romance series and I've had so much fun reading it. The books can all be read as standalones but I think you get the most enjoyment when you read the series, and they are pretty easy and fun reads.
This book is Orion and Violet's story and takes place outside of New Orleans. Violet and her sisters live in a more rural area and Orion has been living in their home and protecting the area after waking up from his hibernation. After more threats keep rising up, Orion has to decide if he wants to be an Alpha again and accept the risks and responsibilities than come with it all while dealing with some past trauma and his feelings for Violet.
I really enjoyed the book and that we got to see another territory establish themselves, but King's territory was still there and mentioned. I did miss my usual suspects, but this was a very nice change of pace. We do get quite a bit of Prima in this book which I was so happy about, I loved learning more about her, and she is pretty badass. I thought Violet was a very capable character, she was a doctor and was a leader in her community and always helped when needed. Orion was very charming too and I loved that he had a cute dog! I did think they waited too long to be together. I would have liked more scenes of then with tension or pining.
My only tiny issue was once the book progressed I found myself really enjoying the relationship between
Yeah this was another knockout for this series and for Katie Reus. She is my comfort author and this could not have come out at a better time for me. Absolutely would recommend.
