Story
At 41, and with a distinguished career as a Texas Ranger under his belt, Magnus DuCane should have been in the prime of his life. Instead, he’s mourning the loss of the daughter he couldn’t save and contemplating a future that looks nothing like the one he had planned. The only bright spot in his life is the young grandson who has suddenly been returned to him after going missing two years earlier and the new family of men that he’s been welcomed into with open arms.

Story
An ugly childhood and devastating betrayal have left 25-year-old Cain Jensen scarred inside and out. Protecting himself means keeping everyone at arm's length and protecting others means never getting emotionally involved. But nothing he's ever experienced has prepared the cold-hearted and very straight Cain for who he finds on that mountain...or the intense need to suddenly offer more than just protection. Will two men who've vowed never to let someone close again let down their guard long enough to find each other, or will they let their pasts determine their future?

Story
At 34 years old, ex-DEA agent Memphis Wheland has lived, loved, and lost...everything. The ultimate betrayal by the man he gave everything to has left Memphis with no family, no career, and a bone-deep bitterness that refuses to release him from its icy grip. His work with an underground vigilante organization is the only light in his otherwise bleak existence. That and the occasional no-strings hookup with men whose only focus in that moment, and for as long as Memphis wants them, is him and only him. No clingy exes, no unrequited love, no relationship drama. Period.

Story
Guys like Eli just aren't Mav's type, period. Yet he can't deny his intense attraction to the younger man who only looks at him with fear in his eyes. Until the day there's something else in those eyes, too. Something that draws Mav in and refuses to let go. Something that makes him want to forget his rules. But Mav's learned the hard way what happens when you get too close to something. And while he vows to protect Eli after a violent attack leaves the younger man shaken, protection is all he'll offer. Because anything else would just cost too much.

My rules when it comes to my job in personal protection are pretty simple: Protect the client’s life, not their feelings. Don’t put hands on a client unless you’re getting them out of harm’s way. For God’s sake, don’t do something stupid like fall in love. Twenty-four hours after meeting Jude Archer, rules one and two are already out the window.

I left him behind because I had no choice.... That's what I keep telling myself, but it doesn't make it any easier to sleep at night...or to drown out the words he kept repeating over and over the day we'd met: I just want to go home. That was eight long years ago and I'd only known him as Billy, a terrified 14-year-old I'd had to leave behind to save someone else. But his name wasn't Billy and he's no longer a frightened kid lost in a world where he was nothing more than a possession.

Criminal defense attorney Zane Devereaux is on the verge of having everything he's worked his entire life for. He's on track to become his firm's youngest managing partner and he has enough money in the bank to ensure he'll never have to be at the mercy of anyone ever again. He's left his past exactly where it belongs and refuses to look back. And he sure as hell isn't going to risk a repeat of his former mistakes by letting someone as sweet, sexy and endearingly vulnerable as Connor Talbot into his life. His bed maybe, but not his life.

Publisher's Summary
It's the holidays for a group of very special men who've managed to become a family in the last year and while all the guys are coming together to celebrate Hawke and Tate's upcoming wedding, a few of them have big plans of their own....
A change of plans....
Newlyweds Ronan and Seth are settling into married life as Ronan considers his return to medicine and Seth starts dreaming of a future that may include the pitter patter of little feet a lot sooner rather than later.
Building a future....
Knee deep in wedding preparations, Hawke and Tate are celebrating something even more important - Matty's final round of chemotherapy treatment. As they anxiously await confirmation that their son is finally in remission, both men strive to give their little boy a normal life including a new house, playdates with Matty's new best friend, Leo, and a new support system of men and women who are starting to seem a lot like family.
An important question to ask....
Meanwhile, Mav is looking to make things official with Eli despite the young man's busy schedule with medical school. But before he can ask the man of his dreams that very important question, he has to get past Eli's family first, including a posse of two overprotective fathers, several intrusive uncles, and a little girl who just wants to brush Mav's hair!
Figuring it all out....
With Memphis, Brennan and Tristan settling into their newfound relationship and our favorite threesome from New York visiting for the wedding, there are plenty of chances for old friends to connect and new bonds to be formed.
The best kind of chaos....
And of course, what wedding wouldn't be complete without a little drama including some white hot sexual tension between a not so old grandfather and a certain cocky bodyguard? Add in some more Barrettis, a couple of precocious kids, several dogs, one spoiled cat, and a gaggle of new, hot alpha men and you've got the perfect storm for a holiday that only the protectors could pull off!
Includes a special bonus scene at the end of the book!
Note: This is not a standalone story - it features previous characters from all of The Protectors series books.
The Protectors series crosses over with some of my other series, so for the most enjoyment, they should be listened to in this order, but it is not required. I've also bundled all my books in listening order under the title: A Family Chosen: The Protectors and Barrettis.

Visiting old friends for a Christmas wedding
This is a book that needs to be heard of you have listened or read The Barrettis and the first few protectors book but what a joy it is. It’s so fun to visit old characters and see how their relationship have blossomed. Also fun to make MP do all their voices in the same scene. :) wedding is always a favorite book setting for me and it’s so satisfying for Tate and Hawke to have a Christmas one. Can’t wait to hear Dante and Magnus’ book next.

loved it
A sweet reprieve from the darkness and at a great time of year-christmas!!! I loved seeing each couple find their special type of happy for each of their situations. So many warm and fuzzy parts that are well deserved and much needed. I had to slow the speed down because I didn't want to miss a minute, and I wanted it to last as long as possible. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job with voices and expressions

Great glimpse into the families
I am a huge fan of the protectors series, there are definitely times where the stories can be very upsetting when Sloane gives u a real glimpse into tragedies but it’s always honest and worth it. This Christmas special gives u a very hot look at all of the previous couples and I loved the way the story brought them all together and didn’t make it seem unnatural. This story didn’t have any real upsetting plot line which made it very upbeat! If you’re a fan of the previous books I can almost guarantee you’ll live this one as well!

A wonderful catch up with much loved characters
I loved catching up with some of the protectors and Logan and Dom. It was wonderful to see them so happy with the loves they had found in their individual stories. As usual, Michael Pauley did a fab job on the narration. The only down point for me - sometimes it was a little hard switching gears between characters with several couples featured and remembering which character was which and what their story was as there wasn’t much difference between the characters’ voices.
