Deidra MacKay is a witch with Dr. Doolittle-type abilities. Unfortunately, her abilities (and her lack of control over them as a child) resulted in the unwanted attention of a witch hunter, who will stop at nothing to burn her. In order to escape the attention of the witch hunter as well as all the farm animals constantly trying to converse with her, Deidra sets out to find a blood witch who she understands can take away her ability. She finds a traveling companion in Stephen Ross, a cripple who wants the blood witch to fix his back. Fortunately for Deidra, Stephen's problem is with his back and does not affect below his waist. That pesky witch hunter keeps thwarting their plans though!

I did not think I would like this book. I am embarrassed to say that I did. It is somewhat paranormal (there are witches and vampires), somewhat historical fiction (characters say "Aye" instead of "yes") and somewhat romance. Despite the cheesiness I thought My Immortal Protector was good for what it is - escapist fantasy fiction.
