Asleep inside a bronze statue, a naked Frenchman wakes a century later to save a half-Fae, museum curator from a demon bent on ruling our present-day world.
Heaven-Sent Warrior
Warriors in Bronze Book 1
by Nancy Lee Badger
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Henrí Chevalier’s last memory, before stumbling naked into a museum’s moonlit garden, was Auguste Rodin and his dusty Paris studio in 1886.
To escape his broken heart, Henrí volunteered to sleep inside a statue until needed. Expecting to die, he discovers he must learn to use the unexpected powers Heaven has given him.
Without them he will fail his mission against otherworldly creatures, such as demons and faeries.
Kenzie Mackintosh, a dedicated art museum’s curator, spies a naked man hiding among bronze statues. A quick glance ignites desire within her, but she is too tied-up in work to act on it.
Unaware of her fae heritage, their relationship heats up as he disrupts her job. While Henrí tries to process modern buildings, cars, and a broken elevator, a demon attacks and forces Henrí and Kenzie to enlist the aid of her powerful fae relatives.
When the demon possesses the body of her ex-lover and threatens to kill him, then use her to take over the world, Henrí and Kenzie must learn to trust each other, even if Kenzie’s death might be the only answer to the world’s salvation.

Excerpt:
Drowning
“No. Kenzie is not there.” Henrí stood on the dune’s apex. The ocean, so close and black, seethed as if alive. He sensed Kenzie. He smelled her subtle fragrance on the wind.
There is still hope.
Henrí shaded his eyes and searched up and down the beach. Movement at the water’s edge caught his attention.
Even from a great distance, her tattered clothing barely covered white limbs striped with blood. With her head held high, Kenzie strolled like a soldier on a leisurely march, headed straight for the surf.
The black, churning, raging sea. Why would she enter the ocean? The unnatural sea could kill her, but Kenzie’s steps never foundered. When her feet sank in damp sand then disappeared in a swirl of foam, his blood surged, and his concern grew.
“Kenzie? Stop!” Henrí ran down the side of the dune, struggling to catch up to her before she waded in any farther.
“What is it? What do you see?” Gwen’s voice rose, panicked.
Henrí ignored her. He could not comprehend the scene before him. His mission, now, was to find Kenzie and keep her away from the dark depths of the ocean.
With the fae at his heels, he searched beyond the foamy wash of the breakers. Something out of place caught his attention and understanding slammed him in his gut.
His body screamed to run faster. He had sensed a demon, but the sea swept away both his stench and Kenzie’s sweet scent. The bobbing form drifted farther and farther away. Waves broke at his knees, but the swirling head of silvery blond hair disappeared into the dark recesses, below the surface.
“No!”
Kenzie was gone.
