ARC Review: Deliver Me from Temptation: A Novel of the Paladin Warriors [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "Deliver Me from Temptation" the 2nd book in her Paladin Warrior series by Tes Hilaire.

Product Description

Logan Screwed Up ... Big Time

When things go bump in the night, Logan bumps back. Vampires, demons, succubi — you name it, he's fought it. His job as Paladin angel warrior is to protect humans. Not fall for one.

She Never Believed in Divine Intervention ... Until Now

Detective Jessica Waters protects humans too - with her Glock and a good set of handcuffs. She doesn't believe in fate. But if anyone looks like a gift from the gods, it's Logan. And he clearly knows more about her case than he's letting on.

About the Author

Daphne Award-winning author and former Tennessee native Tes Hilaire doesn't remember how old she was when she wrote her first story, but she's pretty sure it had something to do with a boy and a girl and a happily every after. Displaced at an early age to "the north country," her stories turned darker as she started creating whole new worlds to escape the harsh, upstate NY winters. Now back in the South, her stories remain edgy, exciting, and bring a hint of dark fantasy to paranormal romance. Best of all, no one ever has to shovel snow.

My Review:

Logan is a Paladin warrior and is next in line to be their leader.  Logan and his father don't see eye to eye because Logan knows you can't judge a person as good or evil.  Logan sees that when a Paladin is turned against his will their not evil but his father doesn't.

Jessica Waters is a cop and her motto is to make sure to put the bad guys in jail.  Ever since her twin sister was murdered she has made this her main goal.  She sees things like Logan's dad you are either a criminal or you not.  This causes problems between her and Logan since he can't explain the strange events happening around them.  Besides she won't believe him.

I really enjoyed the romantic aspect between Logan a Paladin and Jessica a human (I was wondering how they would overcome the obstacles to be together and if she would finally accept what is happening around them).

Valin is up to his old mischievous/tricks again and he happens to know who his mate is (she disappeared at the end of the 1st book). 

3.5/5
