After uniting the shifters and calling in reinforcements, Chase has to face his toughest challenge yet: learning to control his emotions. But as tensions rise and his powers grow, controlling his emotions becomes the least of his problems.

Terrorized by a multi-shifter who is hell-bent on turning him, Chase questions just how far he’s willing to go to stop his father. Meanwhile, Tiki’s virtuous nature has placed him in the middle of Vincent’s past, leaving Chase to oppose a senate of vampires and defend a demon he hates.

Trying to balance his friends, his enemies, and his inner demons, Chase is left searching for answers about the Mark, his destiny, and where he can find the next soul piece. Stopping Riley is his top priority, but as more obstacles arise, he finds himself doubting all the decisions he’s made - especially regarding Rayna.

One thing is for certain: Chase has finally realized that he doesn’t know anything. The light doesn’t always quell the darkness, the monsters don’t always stay in the shadows, and the past doesn’t always stay in the past - sometimes, the demons inside are the hardest to fight.




M.R. Merrick is a Canadian writer and author of The Protector Series, a Young Adult mash-up between Urban and Epic Fantasy. Having never traveled, he adventures to far off lands through his imagination and in between cups of coffee. As a music lover and proud breakfast enthusiast, he’s usually found at the computer between a pair of headphones and in front of a large bowl of cereal.

For more information about M.R., check out his website.

My thoughts: I think the cover for Release goes perfectly with the covers for Exiled and Shift. They all have that elemental theme with the lightening, water and fire worked into the covers. I must admit that I've not read the books yet but they are on my TBR list. As soon as I get a minute to play catch up on my personal list, I will be reading these!

Have you read Exiled and Shift? 
Share your thoughts, I'd love to hear what you think of the cover and series. 

Haven't read the series yet? Well here's your chance!

In celebration of the cover reveal for M.R. Merrick's latest Protector book, Release, I'm giving away an e-copy of the first book in the series, Exiled.

Exiled is a YA/urban fantasy about Chase Williams who is a demon hunter in the Circle, or at least he was supposed to be. On his fifteenth birthday, Chase stepped up to the altar to claim his elemental power, but it never came. Elemental magic is passed down to a hunter through the bloodline, but on Chase's birthday, the bloodline stopped. 

Exiled without the Circle's protection, Chase has spent two years trying to survive a world riddled with half-demons and magic. When he has a run in with a frightened and seemingly innocent demon, he learns the Circle's agenda has changed: the Circle plans to unlock a portal and unleash pure-blood demons into the world. Vowing to stop them, and knowing he can't do it alone, Chase forms a reluctant alliance with Rayna — a sexy witch with an attitude and a secret.

  4. I would like to thank you so much for a fantastic book giveaway, that i would love to have the oportunity of reading! The covers for Exiled, Shift and Release look increadible; very striking, eye-catching and imaginative that capture ones thoughts. I especially like book 3 with its mystical stone arch. I adore fantasy, the paranormal and young adult hence it would be brilliant to be able to read Exiled and review it.
    Thank you so much once again. x

  9. I do like the covers, though I feel like the third book doesn't exactly jive with the other two. I think it must be the purple in the colour scheme. They still look very interesting though.
