Alpha's Promise
Series: Dark Protectors #10
Author: Rebecca Zanetti
SYNOPSIS
To hell and back . . .
Though he has vampire, demon, and Viking blood rushing through his veins, Ivar Kjeidsen’s soul-crushing trip to hell broke him in ways he can barely fathom. One vow keeps the deadly immortal standing: To rescue the vampire brother who had sacrificed freedom for him. To do that, Ivar needs the help of a brilliant physicist with wary brown eyes, fierce brilliance, and skin that's way too soft.
Dr. Promise Williams understands the underpinnings of the universe but has never figured out the human beings inhabiting it. Her function is to think—and not feel—until she’s touched by a vampire who’s nowhere near human. The primal hunger in his eyes awakens feelings in her that defy calculation. As she shows him the way to step between worlds, he brands her with a pleasure that could last more than a lifetime . . .

MY REVIEW
Alpha’s Promise is the tenth book in the Dark Protector series and can be read as a stand-alone but I would recommend starting from the beginning since the plot line continues from book to book.
Ivar feels guilt for leaving his brother-in-arms Quade in a hellish dimension. He made a promise to return and he plans on keeping it. But how?
Enter Dr Promise Williams, a physics professor.
Ivar hopes that Promise will be able to help him return and save Quade. What he doesn’t expect is the hunger, attraction and pull he feels toward her. Both lonely and hurting these two turn to each other for solace and love, even though they don’t know it yet.
Do Promise and Ivar stand a chance when he must ultimately leave?
I love Rebecca Zanetti’s Dark Protectors world but, this one fell a little of the mark for me. I felt a disconnect between the main characters. I didn’t truly believe in them as a couple. Throughout the book, that did not change. Although it was cute and a little funny in the beginning, how they approached sex and each other so clinically, I found the overall result made me feel there was a lack of passion and love in their relationship
The story itself was spot on with action and intrigue. I enjoy and am captivated by this world and cannot wait for future books and for so many things to happen! I need Quade’s book ASAP!
I received an ARC via NetGalley of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
