This was an absolutely amazing read! These girls managed to rock it again
This was an absolutely amazing read! These girls managed to rock it again. The synopsis tells you what the book is about, so I will not. I have loved Gerrick from the beginning of this series. Shae is a perfect balance for him. All of our favorite characters play a role, along with the new who I'm sure we will love. This is release day (and no, I was not gifted a copy of this) and I finished it not because it was a quick read. I could not put it down! Action, adventure and a fast pace. Friendship, romance, love and sex. Shifters, vampires, dragons, witches and warriors. HEA for our main couple

Heart stopping!!
Holy Mother! This book made my heart leap into my throat! I swear it stopped a few times. It was bursting with mayhem and the lust whew! I'm still fanning myself! I'm still in shock about how it all played out and oh man I'm definitely needing to read the next book. From the start of this series I've been sucked into the most amazing paranormal buffet and filled with juicy lust and non-stop demon (the bad kind) killing and alpha males growling and making your libido go crazy! So you definitely want to read these books! Seriously not to be missed!

Love the entire series
There is adventure, suspense, hot steamy sex, what more could you ask for. Love the entire series. I like that characters from previous books are still incorporated in each book. It makes your imagination feel like it's real. Can't wait till book 5 Hellbound Warrior is released.

Amazing Read
I absolutely loved this book. It is by far my favorite out the series. I loved how Gerrick and Shea's relationship took out major players in the Realm. I look forward to Rhy's book next. Can't wait to see what his story is about.

Loved this story
Loved this story. I will continue to read more of the Dark Allaince books. There is sadness, happiness, hilarity and intrigue. I don't know how Shae survived the brutality but she is one strong lady. Gerrick is the strong, silent type that just makes you melt. The characters in this story contribute so much and I have enjoyed reading some of their stories. These authors are a good combination.

A beautiful, action-packed and steamy story.
Cant get enough of these Dark Warriors and the two fated mates in Scarred Warrior are marred by scars brought on by different forces. Gerricks scars are payment for magic used while Shais scars were caused by evil demons who captured and tortured her mercilessly. Each needs healing and finds it in the other. Together they make a formidable pair, mated for eternity, never to be separated again. A beautiful, action-packed and steamy story.
