My Brothers Keeper (Bewitched and Bewildered #5) By Alanea Elder



Two hundred years ago Kendrick Ashwood had a premonition that showed him the gruesome image of his baby brother being killed in the line of duty while serving with the Alpha Unit. When centuries go by and Keelan is still alive and well, he begins to relax. He believes that his prayers sent to the Gods to make him wrong this one time have been answered. 

As Kendrick feels his godsdaughter’s magic flare out of control he immediately merges with her in an attempt to rein it in. That is when he learns of the tragedy that has taken his only family away from him. 

Using every resource at his disposal he immediately heads for Lycaonia to find out for himself who would be suicidal enough to harm his brother. What he finds shocks him to his core. 

Anne Bennett gets a phone call that changes her life. Her new best friend Keelan has been hurt and his commander is asking her to move in to help take care of him. Her heart breaks when she hears from his family that the dreams she has been having of them together were shared by Keelan and that he was meant to be her mate. Upon meeting Kendrick, her entire world is shaken. His more mature appearance and perpetual frown makes him look more like the man from her dreams than Keelan ever did. 

As the Alpha Unit races to find the enemies who have stolen Keelan’s soul and covered Lycaonia in black magic, Kendrick begins to uncover dreadful truth behind the necklaces. When turning to Anne feels more natural than it should, Kendrick faces the fact that Anne truly is his mate. 

As the paranormal world teeters on the brink of chaos, he finds himself protecting not his brother’s mate, but his own.


This book had my mind going crazy. 
I swear, I had to think about things, go back, read it again and then again. I swear, everything is getting more serious, more complicated and every time I read A NEW BOOK... I want MORE!!!

Kendrick is Keelan's brother but also Amelia's godfather as such. He knows whenever she's in trouble, when she's hurt and when he magics out of control. I still don't understand why they box her magic up. It doesn't explain it or if it did, I didn't get why... But they do. Her magic is boxed up, I'm assuming it's because she's too powerful, I'm not sure.

When he feels she's out of control he connects to her, only, his own magic blows out of control while still connected to Amelia. He finds out why the young woman is in so much pain. 
His brother. 
His brother is no longer with us. 
So when he turns up at the estate to find out what happened and get his revenge, his finds his mate is also his brothers mate... or say they all think. But I'll let you discover this mishap all on your own. It was so freaking good to read. 
Since Anne already knew a little of the paranormal, she's surprised that there are so much more than witches and fae, and shifters. There's also an evil lurking around out there. 
I loved her character. She's so witty, so fun and she took everything in stride. I'm glad she's Kendrick's mate and not Keelan's but I do hope Keelan gets his. 

Together they both watch over Keelan, trying to nurse him back to health but with no idea what spell he cast or where he is, they only have so much to go on. 
When the two discover what the necklaces are made for and what they're made from they are finally one step closer towards finding out who is causing all the mess. They do find ONE person involved but the scale of what is happening is bigger than they first imagined. It's also been going on longer than any of them knew. 

It also turns out that Kendrick also has secrets of his own and answers to questions the other unit members needed but in answering, he's also giving away his true identity. 

Find out what happens to Keelan, to Anne, and to Kendrick and the reapers. 
You can also laugh your bump off at their little outing to the shop because this time, it's not Bob they get into trouble with but little girls mothers, after scaring the crap out of them LOL
