Made Mine: A Protectors / Made Marian Crossover

By: Sloane Kennedy, Lucy Lennox

Narrated by: Michael Pauley

What happens when a group of tough vigilantes meets up with a big-hearted family with boundary issues?

Reese: It’s supposed to be an easy job. You know, the kind you get after you’ve been gone a while and the boss is unsure of how capable you still are? But then there’s a mugging, an abduction, two thugs, and a blackmail scheme.

And smack-dab in the middle of it is a beautiful lost soul who needs me. The scared, young gamer-geek pushes all my protective buttons and awakens something inside me that’s ready to dive right in and inhale the man.

But how could I have anything to offer someone like Ben? I’m a mess. Injured, scarred, practically closeted, the recognizable son of a famous man...There’s no way I can ask him to give me a shot at forever. Right?

Ben: It seems like I’ve been looking out for myself my entire life. Heck, I was even given away the day I was born. And, yeah, maybe if my adoptive parents had survived, I would have had a nice life. But they didn’t. And I don’t. Instead, I’m forced to put up with a hateful, scheming foster parent for the sake of sticking around to care for my little sister.

Only, when a blackmail plan lands little Georgie in the hands of thugs, it’s clear I’m her only hope. At least until I meet the big, strong bodyguard someone sends to watch over me.

Reese is everything I’ve ever daydreamed about: protective, attentive, affectionate, and dedicated. But he’s hiding something, and I don’t have the time or energy to figure out what. Because time is running out, and Georgie is the only family I have left.

Until the biological brother who never wanted me shows up and turns everything on its head.

After having finally accepted it’s just Georgie and me, suddenly falling for my protector and being surrounded by Griff and the Marian clan makes me question everything I’ve ever known about myself and what defines a family.

Can a guy with a broken past ever build a family with someone who seems too good to be true?

Listening order note: Can be listened to as a stand-alone.

While the authors recommend listening to both the Made Marian series by Lucy Lennox and the Protectors series by Sloane Kennedy, it isn't required in order to understand the story. At the least, you may want to consider Grounding Griffin (Book 4, Made Marian series by Lucy Lennox) and Unexpected (Book 10, The from the Protectors series by Sloane Kennedy) to get a little bit of background. However, this novel, despite being a crossover, has been written in a way that it can be listened to on its own.

I went into this one having only listened to the Made Marian series, I was worried I would feel like I was missing something since I haven't listened to the Protector Series and to be honest I did but only a tiny bit and that just made me want to start that series right away. The only reason I would say that I wished I had finished both first is because I knew all the Made Marian characters and felt like they had all these friends I wasn't privy too LOL. I loved this story even if it was a little insta-love for my taste. I also loved all the alpha men with cute kid moments. I'll be impatiently waiting for the rest of the Protectors series to be on audible.

The narration was good. He isn't my favorite but he is growing on me.

awesome

I have always enjoyed listening to Michael Pauly. I think this book was written and expresses such wonderful feeling and how that u can actually have love with a whole new family given a chance.

Made Mine

Loved this listen! Sloane Kennedy and Lucy Lennox blended the series’s together flawlessly. Now I have to go back and read/listen to the Made Marian series because I have already listened to all of the protectors series. Michael Pauley did an awesome job as usual.

Totally Awesome

I could not put this book if i tried it was just amazing lucy and Sloane are just damn good at what they do. I was so happy to revisit all the protectors and Marian’s and Reese and be are just beautiful together.
Awesome read Awesome listen

another star!

Michael Pauley doesn't fail to bring the Marian family to life once more. His versatility for such a large cast of characters truly shows through. Lucy and Sloane hit another one out of the park on this crossover.

I just finished 𝘔𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘦 for perhaps the third time {I’ve read the book maybe a half dozen}.

It’s a great story, but this particular time, I was really hit in my feels!!

Awesome

I love this book. Sloane you went all out and I appreciate you and the time you took to write and also Michael well done with the narration.

Thanks to you both.

All hail Lucy Lennox!

I have absolutely fallen in love with the Marian family. For real. Finished that series and saw this book. I will now have to go back and read the rest of this series because it would've made more sense. But, I absolutely enjoyed this story so much.

WOW!

Bravo! Lucy, Sloane, and Michael.

This book will get you teary eyed for sure. Yes, it does involve a child but trust me you'll have a different view after listening to this book. My only complaint of this book is that it's too short.

Perfect

I love these two series and having a crossover was perfect. Hope we get more of these men.
