Dagan has come to the 21st Century because he sensed a big gathering of galla, minions of evil god Kur. He knows that when there is a huge gathering some human could be in trouble. The human in this case is Reese Whitaker. She is an archeologist who is in between projects. Stepping outside Reece is slammed to the ground by Dagan. Dagan saw a galla dart being aimed at Reece. Suddenly a gun shot ranged out and Dagan got Reece to her car and they leave. Dagan proceeds to save Reece from Kur in a lot of places. In between fighting Reece and Dagan have a forbidden love affair. Will these get to stay with each other or will Dagan be forced to give up Reece?
Ms. McBride has woven an interesting story that is full of compelling characters. Dagan and Reece are full bodied and you get the feeling that they are intelligent. I am glad she used a glossary so we could understand the foreign words she used in the story. Since this is Book 1 in the Time Walker series I cannot wait to read the others that come along.
From the Heavens comes a hero who will take your breath away.
Reese Whittaker dreams of falling for a man who shares her love of archeology and ancient civilizations. But being attacked by a horde of demons and rescued by a Sumerian God—a well-armed, gorgeous Sumerian God—opens up a whole new world she never knew existed. And awakens a mysterious power within her that attracts all kinds of supernatural attention.
Dagan, son of the Air-God Enlil and a Time Walker, is sworn to protect the human race in general, and one young woman in particular—Reese. He’s not the only one mysteriously attracted to her powerful life force. Underworld leader Kur craves it for the untold power it will give him to strike a blow at the deities of Dilmun.
Dagan is forbidden by law from interacting with Reese, but from the moment he sees her, the fury—an intense sexual need for bonding—blinds him to all the rules. Should the pantheon discover he has fallen for a human, the punishment could mean suffering beyond imagining for him…and death for her.
