Book number two in The Guardians Trilogy is a wonderful continuation of a story about six very unique friends who have pledged themselves to find three stars... one of fire, one of water and one of ice created by three goddesses of the moon. Long story short... these stars have fallen from the sky and are hidden from the dark god called Nerezza who is determined to have the stars for herself at any cost. Fantasy stories like this are not my usual genre, but since it was Nora Roberts doing the telling, I thought I would look past that and give it a try and it has definitely been worth my time. It's an engaging story, full of all the elements that make a story worth reading and in my opinion, Bay of Sighs is even better than the first book in the trilogy.Without a doubt the heart of this trilogy is the bond shared by these six strangers... Sasha a seer, Bran a male witch, Riley a werewolf, Sawyer a time traveler, Annika a beautiful mermaid and Doyle the immortal... who slowly become the closest of friends. Their fight is with a woman who is the personification of evil and this time as the group searches for the star of water, she has some very twisted humans join her in the deadly and classic fight of good versus evil. And I'm talking about some serious evil here folks. The dynamics of the six friends... their strengthening feelings for one another, their determination to see that good triumphs over evil and the way each of them grows as they pull and learn from one another... even at the cost of their own lives, is what makes this tale so rich. Roberts breathes life into her characters and each one of them adds immeasurably to a story filled with humor, love, friendship, danger, sex and romance.At times Robert's style is predictable...
Originally Posted On: My Little Book Corner . comA couple of months ago, I volunteered to read Stars of Fortune, the first book in Nora Roberts's Guardian Trilogy for the Smart Bitches RITA Reader Challenge because ParaNoras are my crack. If they were illegal, I'd be serving a life sentence for possession/intent to sell a controlled substance. Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of book 1, but I'd already requested Bay of Sighs, so I felt the need to read it too. Plus, I liked the idea of a mermaid heroine -- one whose name was not Ariel. I really wish I resisted reading this. It was awful. It took everything I hated about SoF and magnified it to the level that I wasn't able to finish it.Annika is a mermaid, sent to "the shore up above" to stop an evil goddess from getting the Stars of Fortune. Together with the five other guardians, she must search for the stars and protect them. Afterwards, she must return to the sea, which wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for Sawyer King...Sawyer has been infatuated with Annika from the moment she walked out of the sea and into his life. She's gorgeous and fun and everything he ever wanted. Of course, he can't let him get distracted from his mission -- he's been searching for the Stars for what seems like his entire life, traveling through time and space, hoping to one day find them.Sawyer, Annika, and the other Guardians have their hands full keeping the Stars safe, but now they've got a new problem. Their nemesis has lured in another person -- a man with no morals -- to aid her in the quest.I had so much hope for this book. I loved the idea of a mermaid and a time traveler -- Ariel + the Doctor?With the Kindle version, which is priced at the ridiculous amount of $11.
