ARC REVIEW Guards of Emerald Queen by J.S. Striker



Guards of Emerald Queen is the first boxed set for this series. It's about four supernatural siblings with an interesting curse. Constantly on the move until they reached the small unassuming town of Emerald Queen they are there for over a year before Ian Matthews the eldest decides it's the perfect place to finally settle the family. Ivy Leigh has plans now that she has worked off the debt her ex accumulated. She is free and clear to do what she wants and meeting the brooding computer programmer, Ian, and falling in love wasn't what she had in mind especially since he can't seem to makeup his mind about whether he wants her or not. One kiss was all it took and the curse came into effect now Ian has to decide whether he wants to let the curse take it course or fight it. Nick one of the youngest, one of the twins, has always been a ladies man but when he hires interior decorator Rose Newark he loses sight of everyone else. But just like with his brother one kiss and the curse activates but Nick knows nothing is going to keep him from Rose. Ara has kissed a lot of frogs to try and trick the curse into activating so she could fight it on her own terms but to no avail. Tom for the first time in a long time has free time on his hands and he seems to keep crossing paths with Ara saving her from one thing or another soon his protectiveness and attraction to Ara leads to a kiss and now Ara and Tom are fighting for their lives. Samuel has always been the different sibling only sharing one parent with the other three is what lead to this curse in the first place and it seems with every sibling the curse gets stronger. Natalie Hill is the only other person who knew about the paranormal side of Matthews siblings as their healer and friend she also seems to be the only one who can talk Samuel out of his dark moods. Samuel and Natalie finally give into the attraction between them only to have the curse show back up worse than ever and Samuel doesn't know if he can fight it. 

Overall, this was a great boxed set. the story was fantastic and the characters were all great. J.S. Striker has a way with words fitting in so much for each story it's fast paced and action packed.
