Hear No Evil by Vivian Wood

This book is book 3 of the Alpha Guardians series by Vivian Wood. This is by far my favorite book in this series. The characters and plot are both very well developed and mostly free from errors. The Alpha Guardians have been tasked with helping protect New Orleans from evil.

This book tells the story of Gabriel and Cassie. Gabriel is a very powerful bear shifter, magician, and Alpha Guardian.  Cassie is a vessel of the Oracle and she sees visions that the Oracle has granted her and is able to access the power of the Oracle when the Oracle sees fit to allow her to do so.  Cassie is also the Second Light. Gabriel saves Cassie from Pere Mal who has been holding her hostage for several years and instantly recognizes that she is his mate. Eventually Cassie becomes pregnant and the Oracle reveals to Gabriel that his child will be the next vessel for the Oracle. Without giving away too much of the story, Pere Mal ends up kidnapping Cassie once again so it is up to Gabriel to save Cassie from the clutches of the evil Pere Mal when he kidnaps Cassie. He saves Cassie and their unborn child from the clutches of Pere Mal.
