Vincent is half gargoyle, half man.
Shunned by his clan and forced to live in the shadows, he guards over a
beautiful witch named Noir LeMar, the one light in his life. He longs to touch
her, but he carries a curse – anything he touches will turn to stone.
Orphaned at fifteen, Noir has spent her
life searching for the demon that killed her parents, and for her little
brother, who she hopes is still alive. She has no idea that she has a secret
protector, until she is caught in an ambush in Paris and Vince is forced to
reveal himself. Noir is immediately attracted to the handsome and lonely Vince,
but has sworn never to fall in love. Can she overcome her demons, and the curse
that keeps them apart?
Kara is an angel, sent to prevent Noir
and Vincent from falling into a trap set by Ash, the fallen angel who killed
Noir’s parents. When she meets Ash however, she is immediately seduced by him,
sensing that deep down he is still good. But as an angel, she is forbidden from
feeling desire, or she too will fall…Can they ever be together? And can she
protect Ash from Noir’s revenge?
A
gripping and suspenseful paranormal romance, Hearts of Stone is the first book in Inka Loreen Minden’s Guardian Wings series.
Paranormal beasts, angels, demons and erotica and a kick ass woman who is a powerful witch! What more could a reader ask for. If you like Buffy and the Supernatural series then you will love this book. Noir is an interesting character with a heart-breaking past that has forced her to keep her emotions in check. Vincent is her unseen, unknown protector until the pair accidently meet when Vincent has to save her life. Vincent himself is such a sad character who is in love with the woman he has been protecting since she was a teenager. And, don't get me started on Kara and Ash. Oh my goodness, the sexual chemistry just flies off the pages in this book. Aimed at an 18+ audience, the book does have some pretty raunchy scenes and is very erotic. I do like a bit of erotic fiction! All in all though, at its heart, it is a story about family, love, loss and learning to trust again. Some great action scenes too. I liked it a lot and look forward to reading more in the series. I'd recommend a cold shower after this book!
