Island of Glass by Nora Roberts

Island of Glass by Nora Roberts - 352 pages
The Guardians Trilogy #3

The six guardians have found two of the fallen stars.  Now they've traveled back to Doyle's former home in Ireland to search for the last star.  Will they find the final star and the Island of Glass to save the world from Nerezza's evil?

This is the final book in Nora Robert's Guardians Trilogy.  It focuses mainly on Riley and Doyle and their growing romance as they complete their quest.  I have really enjoyed listening to this series on audio.  The narrator is excellent with the distinct voices of all the various characters.

Bay of Sighs by Nora Roberts

Bay of Sighs by Nora Roberts - 337 pages
The Guardians Trilogy #2

The six have found the first of the fallen stars and have even beaten back Nerezza for the moment.  However, Nerezza has a new recruit who is determined to not only get the stars for his queen but to also capture the six for his own amusement and revenge. 

This is the second book of The Guardians Trilogy.  This one focuses on the time traveler Sawyer and the mermaid Annika.  Not only is their romance blooming, but they are also the ones pivotal to finding the second star.   I enjoyed listening to this book on audio.  I do think the accents are starting to blend together a little more than in the first audio.  I'm looking forward to listening to the final book.

Island of Glass by Nora Roberts

Island of Glass by Nora Roberts - 339 pages
The Guardians Trilogy #3

The six Guardians have found the first two fallen stars. Now they must find the final star -- The Star of Ice -- hidden somewhere in Ireland.  This is the most difficult for Doyle as it's his first time home to Ireland since his parents died 300 years ago.  He must break down emotional barriers he's kept erected for centuries to find this final star and defeat evil for all time.

This is the final book in the Guardians Trilogy.  It focuses on the final two Guardians -- immortal Doyle and werewolf Riley.  The book moves very quickly.  The ending is almost anti-climatic as it comes too quickly and easily.  Still, I enjoyed the reading the series and this was a good ending book.

Bay of Sighs by Nora Roberts

Bay of Sighs by Nora Roberts - 338 pages
Book 2 - The Guardians Trilogy

The six have moved on to Island of Capri to search for the second star.  They beat back Nerezza after finding the first star, but now she has found an ally in Malmon who she slowly changes into something more than human.  It is up to Annika to find the lost star and Sawyer to help beat back Nerezza once again.

This is the second book in the romance trilogy.  It focuses on the mermaid Annika and the space/time traveler Sawyer.  While I enjoyed the book, it was not as engrossing as the first in the series.  Still, I look forward to the final book.

Stars of Fortune by Nora Roberts

Stars of Fortune by Nora Roberts - 336 pages

Sasha has been dreaming for months.  She dreams of people she hasn't met but seems to be extremely close with.  She dreams of a quest for stars fallen from the sky.  She dreams of a man she loves that will draw lightning from the sky.  Then she goes to the island of Corfu and meets these people . . .

This is the first book in Nora Roberts' latest trilogy -- The Guardians Trilogy.  I enjoyed the story.  The audio version I listened to was well done with a great narrator.

Stars of Fortune by Nora Roberts

Stars of Fortune by  Nora Roberts - 314 pages
The Guardians Trilogy - Book 1

Sasha has had visions her whole life.  She's dealt with it by retreating from the world and using the visions as inspirations for her paintings.  She's had visions all winter of herself with five others with some mysterious stars.  On impulse she books a vacation to Corfu and finds herself meeting one of those strangers the very first afternoon.  Now they're all meeting up and trying to find the mythic Stars of Fortune . . .

This is the first book in Nora Roberts new trilogy about goddesses, mythic stars that fell from the sky, evil, and romance.  It was a great first book.  I was immediately caught up in the story.  I'm looking forward to reading the next two books in the series.
