⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Lara Adrian, New York Times Bestselling Author of the Midnight Breed series: "I'm addicted to Tina Folsom's books! The Scanguards® series is one of the hottest things to happen to vampire romance. If you love scorching, fast-paced reads, don't miss this thrilling series!"

Jake Stone comes to an island with a magical spring to have his only wish in life fulfilled: to be mortal again. As a vampire, he's tired of the lonely and unfulfilling life he's been living. Then he meets Claire Culver, a woman whose trip to the island is her last hope. She wishes for a miracle to cure her of a terminal illness. Will her wish be granted, or will this be her last Christmas?

Where does this novella fit into the Scanguards timeline?
It takes place several years before Samson's story kicks off the Scanguards Vampires series in San Francisco with Samson's Lovely Mortal. Well-loved Scanguards characters—Gabriel, Zane, and Amaury will make an appearance in this short novella.

ABOUT THE SERIES
The Scanguards Vampires series is full of fast-paced action, scorching love scenes, witty dialogue, and strong heroes and heroines. Vampire Samson Woodford lives in San Francisco and owns a security/bodyguard company, Scanguards, which employs both vampires and humans. And eventually some witches. Throw in a few immortal guardians and demons later in the series, and you'll get the drift! Each book can be read as a standalone and always centers around a new couple finding love, but the series is more enjoyable when read in order. And of course, there are always a few running jokes - you'll understand when you meet Wesley, a wannabe witch. Enjoy!

What readers are saying:

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Hot and Steamy With a Dash of Intrigue - Amazon Reviewer

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ The characters come alive on the page - Amazon Reviewer

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I listened to the audio while reading, and at the first three words that were narrated by a man, (and I blushed at), I started smiling, giggling, or laughing, and it didn't stop until the end of the story. - Amazon Reviewer

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ The book was absolutely funny, charming, sexy, and romantic, I loved it. - Amazon Reviewer

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ The plot moves quickly and, by the end, I liked the characters so much that I've continued to read the series and am enjoying it a lot. And I don't usually read vampire romance! - Amazon Reviewer

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I really couldn't put it down and loved everything about it. The love, cheesiness, laughable scenes, and the hotter than hot sex scenes were all great and made the characters really stand out. - Amazon Reviewer

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ The action never stops, and in between, there is always time for a passionate interlude. An excellent read. - Amazon Reviewer

Such a nice story!

This was such a nice story. I won't bore you with a plot summary as I know other reviewers are fond of doing that. It's a quick read as it's a novella. If you like the genre, I think you'll probably like this novella. Have at it! I can't wait to read the first full novel.

I began reading Tina's 'Scanguards' stories at the beginning with Samson and Delilah . I was hooked from the very first book.
This new story is fast and romantic. Though some might feel it was rushed, I'd say it's perfect.
The lonely Vampire looking for a normal life, and the desperate human looking for a miracle.
If that doesn't sound like the makings of a romantic book, then nothing does.

Wanting to end his life, Jake Stone decides to first make a trip to an island called Seekers Island to visit the hot spring. The spring is said to have magical powers and will grant the seeker it's wishes. After living 112 years, Jake has a conscience. He can't hurt people anymore and he want his life to mean something. Jake is very unhappy being a vampire, he came to the spring in hoping it will change him into human. On his first night in town, Jake ran into Claire Culver, a beautiful young woman. Claire is there also to visit the spring in hope to find a cure, but after 5 days and no cure in sight, she wants to end her life. Until Jake has a solution to her illness. I love this story, Claire and Jake are good together. What a perfect story to start Scanguards Vampires series. It makes me want to re read the series.

Even though it's short Tina always manages to pull me in with her writing. I loved Claire and Jake. They both travel somewhere that is suppose to fulfill there wish or hearts desire. A springs that's suppose to have powers. But it's the sacrifice that makes the springs have the effect. Claire is dying and Jake is tired of being a creature of the night with no one to share it with. The two meet and sparks fly. He offers Claire something that can change her life forever but will she take it?

We get a "small" appearance from Gabriel, Zane (my favorite smart a@@) and Amaury. I would of loved a bit more of Jake's past along with Claire but it was still sooooooooooo good that I was left with a big smile on my face. Now just have to wait patiently till January for Blake's Pursuit.

I will one click everything Tina writes instantly.
As with all of the other Scansguard books, I saw Mortal Wish was live from the newsletter and immediately bought it.
This one just did not do it for me.
It felt extremely rushed and just kind of as if it was quickly thrown together to appease readers. I felt the usual passion behind the words was lacking.
It had nothing to do with Scanguards until the last paragraph.
As I was reading I kept thinking, "Why is this labeled a Scanguards book?!" Then, I understood and it was just "Eh." for me.
The book was short and it was hot. I read it quickly. It just fell flat for me and I was disappointed.
With that said, Blake's story has just come out and it's one I've been waiting for, so its now waiting for me.
Time to dive back into the world of my beloved Scansguard characters.
Final thought from me: Mortal Wish is just an ok novella in a line-up of amazing books. It can definitely be skipped for those extremely dedicated to the series.

This is a sweet short novelle that makes you feel warm and happy inside. Jake comes to the island in search of the water that will grant his wish to become mortal again. While there his first night he meets Claire. She is there to drink the water to grant her wish to live instead of perishing from brain cancer. Will heir wishes be granted? Sorry no spoilers from me. Habe a fan near bexause the sex is hot. You also catch a little time with Zane and Amaury. it is a quick read that will hold us over until January when her next full length novel comes out. t

I wish it was a bit longer and maybe a lot more angst. I read the whole series and didn't remember Jake being mentioned already mated. Needless to say the short story was hot. Left me wanting more. I loved the series as a whole. This was a nice beginning to the whole series.

This is great if you want a complete story but only have a very short time to read. Fabulous! It was heart warming to see Jake find both love and a purpose in life. Of course like every short story you do not get to know the characters and their pasts as intimately as you do in a full-length novel but that is the trade off for a quick finish. It was super fun to see Gabriel, Amaury, and Zane at the end. I am looking forward to Blake's story in January. Tina Folsom definitely entertains me every time!

What a great way to start the series! If you are new to Scanguards, this is the perfect story to start with.
Like all the Scanguards, there is more to being human than a beating heart. Kindness of leads to redemption. If you are willing to forgive yourself and give life a chance, you just might find your place in this world.
