For them, finding love and settling down is a dream. Their career keeps them on the move and at the mercy of a phone call. Not to mention, the danger anyone attached to them could face if one of their targets tracks them back. Yet, as each one stumbles across a special person, they can't help but wonder if just maybe they can balance both work and love for the right person. After all, Wind Warriors are brave, smart, and downright determined. What they want, they find a way to get.

With over 400 five-star series reviews on Goodreads, this is definitely the series you should read next! Wind Warrior is the READERS FAVORITE book award winner. When a man is miraculously saved from being hit by a bus, Xander’s life turns in to the living embodiment of the tornadoes he can suddenly create with a flick of his wrist.

On a picturesque street, two houses down from a lovely little park, in a quaint little home with a wraparound porch, lives a family that seems rather normal. Sure, their twenty-year-old son, Xander, still lives at home, but he’s going to college and dating the leader of the school’s top sorority. It’s all very… normal. However, when a man is miraculously saved from being hit by a bus, Xander’s life turns in to the living embodiment of the tornadoes he can suddenly create with a flick of his wrist. Whether he wants this gift or not, Xander must learn to use his new ‘super power’ quickly if he wants to survive. For his kind is a dying race, and when this sleepy town has a sudden influx of new, blonde, fire wielders, no one is safe, especially Xander. It doesn’t help that one of these blondes happens to be the most beautiful girl he has ever seen. Xander can’t deny the instant connection he feels to her so, when she tries to kill him, it certainly makes things complicated. Wind Warrior is the first book in the World Aflame series by Jon Messenger. This series is complete and ready for binge reading. Praise for Wind Warrior: "Yet another book to catch, "Wind Warrior" is a fascinating take on Armageddon, coming of age, self-discovery and a budding love story. And all of these elements are captured in a tale that will surely captivate young adults everywhere. Readers will surely be glued to the book until the last page, what with its non-stop sequence packed with a lot of action, topped off with a modern Romeo and Juliet romance in the background.

It is a light read, yet filled to the brim with excitement. This is a book that entertains as well as imparts a lesson or two. I highly recommend it to all readers, young and old alike." - Readers' Favorite Young adult books free Teen and Young Adult Books young adult adventure books young adult adventure fantasy young adult science fiction Visionary & Metaphysical Scary Stories Survival Stories Dystopian Books for Teen Boys young adult apocalypse fiction and adventure Boys and Men Issues Young Adult Science Fiction Action Adventure Thriller Dystopian Survival Fiction Apocalyptic Survival Stories Young Adult Supernatural Mystery Young adult books for boys Science Fiction Super powers Apocalyptic Fiction YA books for teens Urban Fantasy young adult science fiction thriller Social Family Issues Friendship

Pages : 351
Book Description
The Chumash, who lived along the coast north of present-day Los Angeles, dwelled in harmony with the land, worshiping gods and spirits of their own. Then the Spanish came and drove them from their home places, cutting them off from sources of food and from places of worship. Any Indians captured by the Spanish were forced into virtual slavery in the well-guarded missions. Assigned to protect a mission from marauding Chumash, a proud colonel in the Spanish army has moved not just himself and his men but his wife and daughter from the safety of Mexico City to the rough life of Alta California. His wife is content to do the bidding of the priest and her husband, but his daughter, Lucita, is excited by the wild, beautiful landscape that surrounds her. On their journey to the mission, she glimpses a half-naked Chumash warrior and, not yet knowing that he is her fate, finds herself fascinated with his strength and the power of his gaze. Black Wolf was once a captive of the Spanish priests. He knows that the new garrison has come to hunt him down, for he gravely wounded one of the mission guards. He does not understand why he showed himself to the Spanish woman, but something about her draws him near. Her father, determined to rid himself of a headstrong, troublesome daughter who might jeopardize his career by becoming too friendly with the natives, brings Lucita a powerful suitor. Surprised at herself, she feels torn between Pablo Portola, who offers her refuge in her own society, and Black Wolf, who offers her only a life that will always be in peril.
