Sentinels: Book One

A woman badly needing a second chance to fix her troubled life meets a man not particularly interested in helping her.

Radha Kaden hasn’t had an easy life. Now, as an ex-con in trouble again, she is threatened with returning to prison or using her training as a pilot in a building war. Not much choice there. But her situation doesn’t improve when she meets the straight-arrow, by-the-book Wing Commander now in charge of her life.

Davin McAvoy struggles to battle in a war with a limited number of skilled pilots under his command. Radha is forced upon him because of her flight experience, and because she has no other real choice. He isn’t impressed, especially with her attitude. Except she grows on him and he sees beneath the hard surface she presents to others.

This was a nicely complicated story that I enjoyed reading. The characters both dealt with numerous conflicts, including between the two of them. There was a slowly developing romance that left me feeling satisfied. I look forward to the next book in the series.

After being dismissed by the actress Zoe Parker Dr. Cort Hirsch builds a lifelike robot in her image. After accidentally being seen shopping and having the robot mistaken for the real Zoe Parker Dr. Hirsch agrees to help Zoe Parker with her personal problems. As Cort soon learns his robot, Alpha is more human than he thinks.


This was an interesting story that was well written. Dr. Cort Hirsch is a smart man who is lost in unreturned love and when he does finally find love, it is in the most unusual place. Alpha his robot is very unique and the relationship that builds between the two is a sweet read with a good dose of humor thrown in. Fast paced and well written this book keeps the readers attention all the way to the end. Never lagging and even coming up with a few unexpected twists and turns that keeps you guessing just who the bad guy really is.
