Skye Taylor lives a pretty quiet life. Since the death of her husband, Skye has pretty much kept to herself. Actually apart from being legally blind and still driving, her life seems pretty dull. That is, until a series of events shakes Skye's world to its very core.

The first hints of something strange begin in the hospital after an accident. A mysterious man visits Skye and she sees something odd, a blue mist. At first, Skye assumes this is just a weird morphine induced delusion. However, afterwards Skye realizes that she has the ability to heal wounds.

Then, things get complicated, in more ways than one. Skye starts a new job as a massage therapist. Everyone is wonderful except the very attractive Khalen who is aloof and sometimes downright judgmental. What Skye doesn't know is that Khalen knows far more about her, about the blue mist, and about her future than he's letting on. In fact, Skye is about to be thrown into the middle of a war between the Spirians and the Shadows. Ultimately, how Skye reacts will determine if good triumphs over evil or not.

The Protected took me by surprise. The book started off innocently enough with a quirky but pretty average main character with subtle hints of something more. That drew me in. Then, the layers started to be peeled back and the story unfolded. Before I knew it, I was hooked.
