The Guardian of Darkness, the first book in Kathryn Le Veque’s De Reyne  Domination series is phenomenal. I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Paul Woodson, whose voice acting while reading the characters, especially Creed, melted my heart and made me weak in the knees. And the lyrical poetry that is written by Kathryn Le Veque, “he seemed to take up all of the air around him, sucking it dry as he reined his fire-breathing charger to a halt and dismounted. When he flipped up his three-point visor, focusing on the group of knights and one small lady, she swore she saw lightning bolts shooting from his eyes. That was her first impression of the man.” The comparison to a storm, is used several times and is apropos to Creed’s character the “calm before the storm”, and to his relationship with Cari, a fiery passion. This was truly a heartfelt, heart wrenching and heartwarming story that is a phenomenal read!
