About this book

Titus is fighting a losing battle against the encroaching darkness of his own cursed power. Just as he struggles to maintain his sanity, a lethal assassin named Rae crashes into his life with one objective: to end it. Yet, when their paths collide, the expected bloodshed turns into a volatile standoff. Neither can land the killing blow, leading to the shocking realization that they are both being hunted by a common, unseen enemy.

Caught in a high-stakes game of survival, these two adversaries are forced into an uneasy alliance. As they navigate a world of treacherous demon deals and shifting allegiances, the initial hostility between them begins to smolder into a dangerous, undeniable attraction. This slow-burn romance is defined by intense forced proximity, pushing them to decide whether they are destined to be fated mates or each other’s final undoing.

Heart of Crimson is a gripping, dark paranormal romance that expands the beloved Guardians series. Perfect for fans of found family tropes and enemies-to-lovers tension, this story delivers a visceral, steamy journey through a shadow-filled landscape. If you crave high-octane action paired with heart-wrenching emotional stakes, prepare to be obsessed with the relentless chemistry between Titus and Rae.

Oh Titus🥵

May 15, 2023

This is the forth book in Taylor’s Guardians series and after reading Axel and Sam’s story I was eagerly waiting for Axel’s cousin’s story.

Rae is epic and I love how strong FMC she is! So excited to see how she worked with the other mates of the guys! It’s so fun to see all these new people come into this awesome found family! Titus is wheewww quite the steamy read! His story was one I was excited about after reading Axel’s and Taylor did not disappoint! The only reason I took away a star was because their relationship moved a little quicker than the slower burns from the 3 previous books but it didn’t detract from the story it’s...

Angsty and Steamy

I just finished, and I already wish there was more for me to read from Rae and Titus because I’m absolutely obsessed. Taylor Aston White instantly became one of my favorite authors since I stumbled upon her instagram and read the first installment in the Curse of the Guardians series. The author writes in third-person (which is my favorite, and doesn’t feel repetitive as first-person), and there’s dual povs between the FMC and the MMC. This book is also an enemies to lovers with the FMC being a...

I’ve really enjoyed this whole series but this one had something special. A Combination of writing, plot, character development and everything else made it worth the read. I found myself really into the characters more than any of the other books. )

Another hit!

I have burned through this series in a week, and they just keep getting better!! I love how the plots intertwine between books, keeping everything cohesive. The same goes for the dual POV, overlapping them slightly makes the flow so much better. I CANNOT wait for the next in the series!! Keep them coming Taylor! ) One person found this helpful
