FREE -- US ONLY Kindle Edition -- Underground Guardians: Healer by Lisa Renee Jones

The genetically enhanced elite Special Forces Unit The Black Knights continues to battle to save the world from a rogue group of their own men who wish to rule the world. Marcella Alexander, a woman considered myth by most, is named the Witch Doctor for her unique healing powers that the enemy wishes to use for evil. Diego, doctor of the Knights, is enlisted to find Marcella and bring her to safety before she can be captured. Marcella doesn’t know who to trust and she will not go with Diego freely. Diego will have to become her captor to save her life, and now, on the run through a danger infested territory inside Mexico, they will find both obstacles, and burning hot passion. But Diego must earn more than Marcella's passion. He must earn her heart and her trust, and do so quickly if he is to save her from a madman who is determined to possess her himself.

REVIEW:

Second in the Underground Guardians series, this is a well-crafted and imaginative story. The wonderful hero struggles to find a balance between his needs and the heroine's need to make her own choices. Marcella is rather naive, but she's also intelligent and strong. The ending leaves you longing to learn more about these warriors and the world they try to defend.

Dear Reader:

The Underground Guardians was originally published through Ellora’s Cave many years ago. As time passed, though readers asked for the next book in the series, I knew that there were things I should have done differently, that I wanted to do differently. More time passed, and this series stuck with me. I WANTED to write more stories. So finally, I sat down and said – how do I write more? How do I get from where I started to where I want to go? There was only one option. A spinoff series. So I wrote a new series -- THE ZODIUS series -- which debuts in May 2011 with Sourcebooks Casablanca with the book THE LEGEND OF MICHAEL. But these books – The Underground Guardians – inspired the Zodius series. Without them, the Zodius series would never have taken form. So here is a look into the young writer’s vision into a world that later became the more mature writer’s world. You will actually meet my inspiration for the Zodius version of Michael (LEGEND OF MICHAEL) in this book. In fact, there will be many things in the Zodius series that you will find familiar to the Underground Guardians series, but you will also find many things very different.

I hope this look into the world of the Underground Guardians will intrigue you enough to make you want to read the Zodius series, starting with LEGEND OF MICHAEL.

Thank you for your support!
Lisa
