He is a truly incredible character – one of the best I can ever recall reading. Smite made me shiver, grin, cry, and say “oh, oh my” throughout the book. Indeed, it doesn’t feel manufactured to create a tortured hero, but rather as a man in his place would behave. While he is harsh and solitary, it seems reasonable in his circumstance and with his history. Instead, he devotes his life to making sure he cares, listens, and makes a difference in the lives of those he sees as a Magistrate. He has been through intense trauma that could render some people mad. He stole the show in that book, and I dropped everything the moment this one was released so that I could read about my precious Smite. May: When I read Mark’s book (Turner #2), while it was a great read, I spent much of the time hoping for more of Smite. Instead, when he tries to push her away, she pushes right back-straight through his famous self-control, and into the heart of the passion that he has long hidden away… And yet no matter how forbidding the man seems on the outside, she can’t bring herself to leave. But she’s close enough that when Turner threatens her with imprisonment if she puts one foot wrong, she knows she should run in the other direction. Until the day an irresistible woman shows up as a witness in his courtroom… But behind his relentless focus lies not only a determination to do what is right, but the haunting secrets of his past-secrets that he is determined to hide, even if it means keeping everyone else at arm’s length.

Smite Turner is renowned for his single-minded devotion to his duty as a magistrate. “At the moment,” he muttered numbly, “I may be coming a bit unraveled.” He shut his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. Everything he kept bottled inside him came out. Unraveled is the third full-length book in the Turner Series.“Although at the moment…” This was what came of violating the sentimentality quota.
