Timothy Kines lived a fairly straightforward existence. He'd completed high school, and would probably find an ordinary job. He was a ship without a rudder. Living in the shell of the life left after the death of his father. He'd dreamt of the girl in chains. The strange woman that cried out for rescue. One morning his life changes forever. A strange being of incomprehensible power wakes him from his fitful sleep. His father, three years dead, left a purpose for his life. To care for the girl that had haunted his dreams. To protect her from the unknowable forces of darkness. She has no memory of what she is. She was doomed to die. And in one instant, she became his whole world. The Guardian is a novel of romance and mystery. It is the tale of a man who will stand in the face of the unstoppable, and prove love unconquerable.
