Tiger Protectors #3

A Tiger's Destiny

Rate this book
He's one beast of a bodyguard...

Kel Cunningham is the only white tiger shifter in the world. Taller, stronger, and faster than almost anyone, he's the best protection money can buy. Still, his two older brothers have found mates and Kel is ready to find a special someone of his own and settle down. And when his latest job brings him face to face with curvy Sofia, the first woman to make his tiger sit up and growl possessively, he thinks maybe she's the one. That is, if he can keep her safe and figure out why everyone in the underworld seems to be hunting her.

Sofia doesn't know what to make of the giant, model-gorgeous man hired to protect her. Kel's ice blue eyes, blond hair, and tall body stand out wherever he goes, and Sofia doesn't need to fall for a man that could get her noticed. But she soon sees that Kel is capable of handling anything that comes their way, and that beneath that muscular, sexy chest is one of the kindest hearts she has ever met. She knows she should stay distant, keep her secrets and trust no one. But Kel's warm, safe arms and searing kisses make her want to break all her rules.

Warning: Contains a shifter who holds his own in car chases, dramatic rescues, and helicopter fights, and will do absolutely anything to protect his mate. This book has heart pounding action, some strong language, sexy scenes with a dominant tiger, and secrets you won't guess until the very end!

A full romance with NO cliffhanger!

Oh!! Simply stunning!!!!

I am overjoyed to get Kel's story!!!! I loved every earth stphattering bullet ridden running for your life dangerous moment!!!! We get to meet Sophia a secretive cat shifter, and Kel our Siberian white tiger shifter. They click from the moment they meet. There is far far more secrets than their own in the mix, like who's hunting Sophis, and who her mysterious " godfather " is. You get Tor the red dragon, and Perry the silver dragon and Kel's brothers and their mates in this story too. Plus, the ending leads you into a perfect other novel, I truly hope!!!! Very well worth reading!!!! I received this book as a gifted ARC from the author Terry herself in exchange for an honest review. It's a huge must read as well as re read like all her other wonderful books!!!!!

Destiny & Treasure

The first novel in this 2/1 book reflects two lost, lonely souls finding each other. Both big cat shifters, Sophia and Kel are brought together when Kel becomes Sophia's bodyguard. They must fight through harrowing situations and eventually seek the ultimate shelter. Time with dragons, Perry & Tor, bring Sophia & Kel closer. And reveal answers to questions long unasked. The salvation they find together comes with sacrifice, conflict and redemption. Kel is a sterling hero, protective, moral and devoted. Sophia provides the heart to win him, despite a isolated past. Well done story in an alternate world that is well defined and believably created.

The second novel in this book follows the convoluted, complicated and conflicted world of dragons. Ransom & Dravon are a pair of dragons in search of a mate. But finding a human woman with a "Dragon heart" has proved difficult. Until they cross paths with Melissa. Melissa is quiet, a librarian by trade, but throughout her lonely, alone life she has found she must strive to do what's right. Which brings her directly into the lives of her paired dragons. The sexy, dangerous but loving dragons must convince Melissa, and themselves, that she is their mate. But nothing is easy in the world of dragons and proving she is a dragon heart may be more than Melissa can manage. This is a winning, touching, sensual and exciting journey into a well defined alternate world of fantasy.

The action-packed tiger shifter love story which I definitely like. They are both rare creatures and that can be dangerous sometimes. Kel is a rare white Siberian tiger shifter with a big warm heart which wants to protect. Sofia is sought after by a madman. He is her bodyguard. Though even I realized there were somethings to take care of which he didn't think of once the suspicions cropped up; that was a little disappointing as he is supposed to be the best there is to be found. They both want to be loved and accepted as who they are, not what they are as a thing to be owned. A balancing force in the universe, a destiny, seems to have brought them together to find happiness. We learn why Kel is so rare and different, and also get to see more about the dragon pair of their region and Kel's past and relationship with them. This time the dragons seem to have learned from their mistakes and be more humane. And now the next story is about them and finding finally their mate!

I read this book as part of a box set which I own.

Kel is a tiger shifter who works as a bodyguard. When a uber rich man hires him to protect his "goddaughter", Kel is not expecting to find his mate. He is also not expecting the numerous attempts to grab Sophia, so he does the only thing he knows will keep her safe - he takes her to the dragons who trained him. Find out what kind of shifter Sophia that makes her worth so much to everyone, and who the dragons are that trained Kel and his brothers.

Kell was the youngest brother. He took his own path in life, being a personal bodyguard.

Kell knew his job and was secure in doing it right, every time. Meeting a potential client sometimes involved a lot of privacy. This was one of those times. He was driven in the back of a van, blindfolded. Arriving at the location, and upon meeting said client; things were looking fine. His charge was the god daughter of the client. Very tight security was essential, but why? There was instant attraction, which was odd. Kell knew something was off.

A Tiger's Destiny

Again Terry has written a book that has mesmerized me so much that I couldn't do anything else but finish the story. Two fantastic stories in one book. I loved the added story of the dragons, Draven and Ransom, and their Dragon Heart, Melissa. A great addition to an already great story. Thank you Terry.

I really enjoyed this story! It was fast paced, full of action, car chase, rescues, sexy scenes, and touching moments. Kel had intrigued me from book 1 and I was pleased with how his story turned out! Now I'm even more curious about the next book, Tor and Perry's story!

3 1/2 STARS

I actually liked Kel & Sophia's story. We have a little more information, my only issue is I have read a number of Ms. Bolryder's series and there is no continuation for the tiger shifters or other things discussed in this series.

Kel is called to protect Sophia from being kidnapped. All is not as it seems. They fall in love and realize they are mates. There is trouble and Kel takes Sophia to the Dragons for help. Terry I love your books.

I was disappointed with the entire Tiger trilogy, as the writing, editing, and continuity overall were not on par with this author's other works. It is almost to the extent that I wondered if someone else wrote the stories, using her name and the world she created.

As usual a great story.

Terry Bolryder is wonderful writer. You receive action, suspense, romance, adventure and enjoyment. I have reviewed so many of her works it is hard to find new ways to praise her works. So read, enjoy and be delighted.

An Awesome Ending!!

This book was most excellent to the ending of this series! It gave excitement, lust and love all in one big bang of an ending. Plus you get a little bit of a surprise at the end.

Terry saved the best for last. It seems to wrap all her bears, dragons and tigers in one fell swoop. I love how the books overlapped a little bit while all being totally standalone. Great writing. Onward to the Alphas!!

Rare breeds

It seems that the third book in these series end up being more cheesy again. This was good enough. Held my interest. Just had more cheese again, not as much meat. But I rather liked the premise of one of kinds getting together for a happy-ever-after. Nice touch.

So the last of the brothers is mates! Terry Bolryder has a formula and she sticks to it! This doesn’t make each book less enjoyable at all I still love them and most shifter readers will! They are quick but fun reads.
So now we continue onto the dragons and finding their dragon heart!

A satisfying read

I liked the one-of-a-kind aspect of Sofia's and Kel's story. Their pairing is quick but believable, the tension of the action sequences holds the reader, the pacing is fine, and the ending is satisfying.

Kal and Sophia's story may be my favorite of the three brothers. Even people who dont fit the mold can find their own place and love.

Kel's story was my favorite, however it felt like the author was in a hurry to finish the series and move on. The story was too short for me.

Wonderful

An excellent story written more from the dragon point of view. A quick moving plot with a few good twists that kept everything moving.

One of the main things that I like about Terry Bolryder's writing is that she has this knack about grabbing your interest at the beginning of the book and keeping it till the end. She can make you feel many emotions when you are reading her work. I laughed so hard at many different places in this book. She always has surprises for you in her books as she does this one. Just when you think you have the book figured out "BAM" she throws you for a loop. If I could rate this book more than 5 stars it is one of those that would probably hit 100!!!!!

Kel Cunningham is is the only white tiger in the world, and he like his brothers was raised and trained by the Dragon shifters Perry and Tor. Though he is the youngest of the three, he is the largest with unique features as a human. He has Ice blue eyes, and white blond hair to match his tiger. Oh and let us not forget he excessively larger than his brothers and he is stronger and faster than most anyone as well. That is why he made a great body guard and he made a good living at. Happy that his brothers had found their mates, he is ready for his special someone to settle down with. He is hired to protect a very curvy and special Sofia, who is the only female to ever make his tiger get up and take notice. Not only does his tiger want her, but it seems for some special reason everyone in the underworld wants her to. In order to protect her, he has to find out why.

Sofia is a special cat shiter and one of a kind just like Kel. She isn't sure how to handle this huge, model looking tiger shifter at the beginning so she doesn't let him know what species of cat shifter she is. As time goes on, and the longer she is in his care she realizes that he can handle any situation they are in on his own. She also realizes that beneath the hard exterior of a man, is one of the kindest hearts ever found. Knowing she should not get close to this man, is easier said than done. When his kisses melt her defenses, and his safe arms make her want to tell him all, she is confused about what to do.

There are so many surprises in this book. Plus there are so many places you find yourself laughing so hard that your stomach will hurt, and sad moments that make you want to cry, and other moments that will make you want to KILL!!! This is a book to read and you definitely will not regret it.

I absolutely loved this series. So worth the read.

Kel is a rare tiger shifter who is a hired bodyguard. Sofia is a rare jaguar shifter who needs a bodyguard. When her godfather hires Kel to keep her safe. When these two kitties come together sparks fly. Kel thought he'd find his mate once he retired not on the job. Poor Sofia has had a terrible life so far. Watching her parents die and then having to live in foster care that is until her so called godfather finds her. Everything is not what it appears. When Kel tiger gets suspicious and looks into matters he quickly realizes there's something off about this situation. So he take Sofia to the one place he knows they'll be safe the dragons. Will Kel be able to keep Sofia safe even from herself? Is she the mate he's been secretly hoping for? I loved this series. It's absolutely delicious. P.s please write Perry and Tor's story. I have read the other dragons stories and I love how this played into those. I would love another dragon story from you. I love your books I believe I've read them all. Thank you for the wonderful job you do.
