A Sword Against the Darkness

Gamer, barista, and black belt, Gwen never thought much about destiny until she followed a fairy—sorry, fable!—through a portal to fight dark forces in a warehouse in Michigan. Now she’s the fated magical key of a fae gryphon knight and she’s got to keep him from electrocuting himself with the toaster and figure out how to sync their power and save the world, all before the veil to faeryland grows thin at the end of the year...and it’s already past Halloween.

No pressure or anything.

Henrik doesn’t know what to make of the world he’s been thrust into. Despite his fellow knights’ help, and all the efforts of the brave, beautiful woman who is supposed to be his conduit, he can make utterly no headway in using the strange, reluctant magic of this place. His courtship of the alluring warrior Gwen is complicated by his confusion about things like bread bags, coffee, cars, and her very unfriendly cat.

Now there’s a strange new danger rising, and it will take all of their courage, strength, and love to unlock the magic that will protect the world. Game on!

Gryphon of Glass, book three of Fae Shifter Knights, is a portal fantasy romance romp, with pets, pizza, and a tiny, floofy gryphon. All of the books stand alone, with satisfying happy endings. One-click today for a sweet-hot escape from the ordinary.

Love and world saving

I enjoyed Henrik and Gwen’s story - trying to unlock magic without an instruction manual while falling in love and preparing to save the world. This is the third book in this series. It is an exciting story full of love, danger, drama, silliness, and some mystery. Plus there is a hot protective magical gryphon. Gwen is aware of the parallel world and the fae nights that were brought here locked in glass ornaments. Now if only they could find the one meant for her. Henrik is a magic fae gryphon warrior who is released from the ornament when Gwen kisses it. Henrik and Gwen must bond with each other in order to help save this world. Unfortunately, this is not as easy as it sounds. The story includes what you’d expect from this genre - fighting, dangerous situations, end of the world scenarios, paranormal creatures, evil masterminds, henchmen, loyal friends and family, tragic back stories, plot twists, mystical coincidences, snark, and laughs. It also includes witty dialogue, characters with depth, and an engaging storyline. These are best read in order as there is an overarching story arc that weaves through all the books. Now I am off to pick up the next book and read about the next shieldmate.

Travis Baldree and Stephanie Németh-Parker did a phenomenal job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.
