This was a great sequel in the Protector series and I really enjoyed it. It begins with Jazz and she quickly fills us in on what she has done since Seb abandoned her; finished TAFE, moved into her own apartment, found a casual job for a newspaper she is able to do from home and gave birth all alone.

This was a great sequel in the Protector series and I really enjoyed it. It begins with Jazz and she quickly fills us in on what she has done since Seb abandoned her; finished TAFE, moved into her own apartment, found a casual job for a newspaper she is able to do from home and gave birth all alone. She is now raising a half human/vampire baby by herself and they both need to nourish their vampire sides regularly.

Jazz decides to take up some self defence courses so that she will be able to protect herself and her son if the need arises. At the local martial arts centre she meets Ryan and he has a lot of similarities in appearance to Seb. It takes a bit of time for their relationship to develop, but he shows interest in the progress that she makes, decides to personally train Jazz and finally asks her out. It just happens to be the exact time that Seb returns, but he remains at a respectable distance as he thinks that Jazz has moved on.

Once Seb and Jazz reunite, they are able to work out their issues but not everyone is happy and some are even seeking revenge. This is where the real action begins and true friendships are formed. There are also a few twists and turns thrown in that will strengthen the bond of this couple.

I really like Seb, he really loves Jazz and only left her because the people from his planet needed him more. In He Came For Me, the city was burnt to the ground and Seb’s father has now had a mental breakdown, so Seb needed to take charge and rebuild the city and keep his people united. He is loyal and kind and had every intention of returning to Jazz as soon as he could.

Jazz has grown into a fine woman and mother, but I thought she was a bit too quick to forgive Seb. He may have had his reasons for being away for almost 2 years, but he still should have to work for her affection again. Once they got back together, they couldn’t get enough of each other and made up for lost time!! Even though he should’ve worked harder for it, it still was beautiful to see them reunite so easily and their fires still burned for one another.

One aspect I really liked of the book was the Vampire rituals that were performed. There are a number of them conducted in this book and I like how the author did them. Combining vampire blood, ancient symbols and chanting, I was able to imagine the setting and how it was being performed. I thought that these rituals were unique and gave greater depth to the plot!!

He Came For Mine was a faster paced read than the first book in the series, and the storyline flowed easily. Some of the timeline was glossed over as nothing special happened during that time, but I think all of the important details were included in the book. We are introduced to new enemies, we see what a great man Seb has turned out to be and that he will do anything for his family. I enjoyed every moment of reading it and I was happy to see the book finish as it did.

I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.(less)

I was a bit off put by the cover. It's such a stark difference from the fun cover from book 1. It gives the hint that "He Came For Mine" must be a darker story. One that I just was not expecting. I also noticed the error with the moon. Where the moon in the story and on the cover of book 1 is blue and yet on the cover of two the moon is purple. I just wonder if I was the only one to notice that?

I was impressed with the second installment of the protectors series. Most authors slack when it comes to the second or a middle book. You can tell Brown put more thought into weaving this plot making the continuing story much better than the first. It was a little off putting however. After everything that Jazz went through in book one that she was a bit naive when it came to meeting someone who reminded her of Seb. Even I saw that betrayal coming a mile away.

Jazz's weakness when it come to Seb irritated me to death. Two years after Seb walked out of her life he waltzes back in and announces that he has to take the son he abandoned away from her in order for him to live. I got that the son needed bond with the father in order to mature. What I didn't get was how come Jazz didn't put up a fight. Medication was provided in book one and was used in book two to control blood lust. Jazz could have argued to use it with her son. But then all my worries were laid to rest with the birth of the twins. If ever there was a lousy mother Jazz fits the bill. Had I birthed twins and one was missing, instead of focusing on pleasuring my sexual urges I would be focused on caring for my daughter and stayed on everyone's ass about finding my missing daughter.

It was also a bit strange that after Jazz becoming the strong woman she needed to be in order to raise her "special" son. That suddenly she became weak needing help not knowing what to do with the second birth. It was just one of those wtf moments.

It may seem that I'm being harsh but truly I did enjoy this book much better than the first and I will diffanetly be looking for the next book in this in=improving series. I'm interested to know if Jazz will at last grow a back bone. Being the Queen to the vampires she will need one. Plus, I can't wait to see the magic that the children hold.(less)
