Willing Sacrifice (Sentinel Wars Series #8)

by Shannon K. Butcher

Overview

They are the Sentinels. Three races descended from ancient guardians of mankind, each possessing unique abilities in their battle to protect humanity against their eternal foes: the Synestryn. Now a warrior weighs the price he will pay for love....

Theronai warrior Torr has never forgotten Grace, the human who stole his heart and nearly gave her life to save his. So when he is summoned to the aid of Brenya, the powerful woman who healed Grace, he is devastated to find that Grace’s cure has left her mind devoid of any memory of Torr or their love.

However, despite not knowing who he is, Grace is inexplicably drawn to the dark warrior. As they team up to stop the invasion that threatens the people Grace now considers family, her memories slowly start resurfacing. But sometimes the past is best forgotten—a lesson that Torr may learn too late....

Editorial Reviews

01/20/2014
Butcher’s eighth Sentinel Wars paranormal (after Falling Blind) continues the prolonged battle between good and evil. Torr Maston is one of the immortal Theronai warriors charged with protecting humanity from the demon Synestryn. In a previous book, he received a nearly fatal wound, but was saved by the devoted nursing of Grace Norman, a human. Grace’s memories and personality have been magically wiped clean, but she and Torr are bound by a talisman she used to save his life, and once they meet again she starts to recall their forbidden love. Now they must find a way to overcome the obstacles to romance between different races while simultaneously thwarting a demon invasion. The sizzling love scenes and violent attacks are emotionally intense, but there’s not much story to hold them together. Agent: Nephele Tempest, Knight Agency. (Mar.)
