Synopsis (Goodreads):
Guarding a precocious five-year-old who is half-human, half-god, and 100% destined to save the world is no easy feat.Thoughts on Graveyard Shift: This book is technically about Garrett and Marika and them coming to terms with their issues, but Beep/Elwyn...wow. THINGS HAPPEN and I can (vaguely) see how things are being moved into place for the big showdown she's destined to take part in. I mean, that girl. THAT GIRL.
Garrett Swopes was the ultimate skeptic until he met a certain hellion and her husband. They vanished after stopping a catastrophic event and left him, a mere mortal, in charge of protecting their gift to mankind. But when she disappears as well, he needs the help of another breed of hellion. One who can see past the veil of space and time. One who betrayed him.
She will get a truce in the deal, but she will never earn his forgiveness.
Marika Dubois’s son—a warrior in the coming war between heaven and hell—was foreseen long before his birth. But to create a child strong enough to endure the trials that lay ahead, she needed a descendant of powerful magics. She found that in Garrett Swopes and tricked him into fathering her son. A ploy he has never forgiven her for. But when he knocks on her door asking for her help, she sees the fierce attraction he tries to deny rise within him.
And Marika has to decide if she dares risk her heart a second time to help the only man she’s ever loved.
But let's talk about Garrett and Marika. He's trying to be a good father to their son, but he has maybe a teeny tiny bit of baggage that stems from his parentals and Marika's trickery in getting him to help make their kiddo. Which doesn't translate into him being a bad dad or anything, but he is having a hard time forgiving Marika for what she did. Throw in being the head guy in charge of keeping Beep safe while not being able to see a lot of the supernatural world and, well, Garrett has a lot on his plate.
As for Marika, she's lived her entire life knowing her son would be someone deeply important in the coming war so she set out to give him the best chance of survival she could. Even if it meant tricking the man she loved and keeping silent about their son. Now that Garrett knows about him, she has to live with his anger and mistrust. Which isn't easy, but she does it. Because Zaire's safety is more important than her happiness.
Except spending time together sort of opens Garrett's eyes and his heart all over again and THINGS HAPPEN. Not the things that happen to Beep, but other things. Sexy things.
A whole lot of danger, a change in perception, a sexy encounter in an SUV, a wild child, and a new coffee place in town. THINGS HAPPEN and OMG! Wow.
