It's a typical Charlene Teglia paranormal book. It's a very sexually explicit story with m/f, m/f/m, and other combinations, but there is no m/m.

The heroine is likable. She doesn't have a lot of angst or insecurities and that is so refreshing. She's also good at verbal sparring which makes the conversations quite amusing. The plot is practically nonexistent much like the heroine's clothing. She's a young witch who unintentionally releases dark magic on the world. The five men (a vampire, a dragon shifter, a wolf shifter, fae, and "good" demon) are the Shadow Guardians who serve a warrior goddess. They bear her mark which is an eight-point star. It is their job to protect the world from dark magic.

I actually wished the heroine ended up with another one of the Shadow Guardians instead of the one she ended up with. She was happy of course, but I like the dragon shifter a lot more than the other Shadow Guardians. He was witty, funny, and sexy. Can't wait to read more of this series although this is no Black Dagger Brotherhood or Night Huntress. It is what it is and you have to enjoy it for that.
