Blackstone Ranger Guardian by Alicia Montgomery

4.0

I really enjoyed this story! It was a fantastic story and I loved finally getting Dutchy's story. We have seen her starting with the Blackstone Dragon series and now into this one. This can be read as a standalone story though it is connected to the rest of the books in the series as we see both characters in the previous ones. If you have read the series then you will get some added enjoyment but it is not needed. I loved the action and development throughout the story. Krieger has been dealing with a lot of guilt and shame and has shut himself away from the world mostly. He hasn't dealt or healed with what happened when he was deployed. He finally does after meeting Dutchy and knowing that she is his mate but he does not explain everything to her when he decides that he needs to fix himself prior to being with her and it breaks something between them and in her that causes a huge issue. Krieger now has to work on repairing that and building trust with Dutchy. I really enjoyed this story and I am excited for what comes next.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
