Blurb:

Life is never easy for those with the strength to change the world.

These are their stories.

Inquisitor

When Allison is asked to play Cinderella-turned-Fianceé at a Halloween ball, the last thing she expected was to be accused of murder. She has to find the killer or she’ll be put to death for the crimes she didn’t commit. To make matters worse, the victims are all werewolves.

On the short list of potential victims, Allison has to act fast, or the killer will have one more body to add to his little black book of corpses.

Winter Wolf

When Nicole dabbled in the occult, she lost it all: Her voice, her family, and her name. Now on the run from the Inquisition, she must prove to herself—and the world—that not all wizards are too dangerous to let live.

Blood Diamond

The world is full of corpses, and Jackson knows them by name. When a group strives to destroy the Inquisition, his powers may be all standing between the supernaturals and extinction.

Silver Bullet

Finished with being a victim, Vicky will do everything in her power to put an end to Basin once and for all, even if it means she must make the ultimate sacrifice and bite a silver bullet for the sake of her family, her friends, and the rest of the supernatural world.

This collection also contains Tales of the Winter Wolf Vol. Six.



My Review:


Allison learns that someone is killing werewolves and she has been framed for their murders. Allison must find out who is killing the werewolves and why they want to place the blame on her before she becomes the next one on the list.

Nicole is a wizard and is being hunted by the Inquisition. The world thinks that wizard are too deadly to let live. Nicole wants to prove to the world that she is not dangerous. She just wants to live a normal life like everyone else. With the world wanting her dead Nicole has to live her life in secret and hope everyday that she will not be discovered.

Jackson wasn’t supposed to participate in the killing of the Fenerec he was only there to drive his brother’s truck known as the Red Beast. But things don’t always go as planned. Jackson finds a young female Fenerec that has been injured. Jackson is not the kind of person to not help someone in need. Besides he doesn’t have anything against the Fenerec as he was married to one.

Vicky, a Fenerec wakes to find that she is now a squirrel. She has no idea why she is now squirrel as she is not supposed to be one. Vicky vows to find out who turned her into a squirrel and why.

I love this world of the Witch & Wolves and all the characters. I love how they interact with each other. I love their personalities. I love how they lose it when their mate is in trouble. The love and compassion is so thick you can feel it coming off the pages.

Witch & Wolf: The Complete Series is a fast paced read that had me hooked from the first page. It is action packed from beginning to end. The action just keeps on rolling with twists after twists that keeps you guessing right up to the end. Witch & Wolf has witches, wizards and werewolves with a few twists added in. I love the twist on witches and wolves and their magic and how it works.

I would recommend Witch & Wolf: The Complete Series to all paranormal fans especially anyone who are into witches, wizards and werewolves. One click your copy of Witch & Wolf: The Complete Series today!

Blurb:

When Allison is asked to play Cinderella-turned-Fiancée at a Halloween ball, the last thing she expected was to be accused of murder on the same night. She has to find the killer or she'll be put to death for the crimes she didn't commit. To make matters worse, the victims are all werewolves.

On the short list of potential victims, Allison has to act fast, or the killer will have one more body to add to his little black book of corpses.

There's only one problem: One of the deaths has struck too close to home, and Allison's desire for self-preservation may transform into a quest for vengeance...

 



My Review:


A friend of Allison has asked her to come to New York to meet his mother and pretend to be his fianceé. Mark’s mother has set him up to marry someone else, someone he has no intentions of marring. He thinks if he introduces his mother to his fianceé she will accept it and leave him alone.

Sometime after arriving at the Halloween ball Allison learns that someone is killing werewolves and she has been framed for their murders. Allison must find out who is killing the werewolves and why they want to place the blame on her before she becpmes the next one on the list.

Inquisitor will keep you on your toes trying to guess who is trying to kill all the werewolves and why. As the story plays out and turn after turn is revealed that left me very, very surprised when the truth finally came out. I was like no way with a smile on face. There was plenty of action between the pages to keep the story rolling and keep me glued until the very end wanting to know how it all turned out.

I would recommend Inquisitor to all werewolves, witches and the paranormal fans. One click your copy of Inquisitor today!

The Hunted Wizard

When Nicole dabbled in the occult, she lost it all: Her voice, her family, and her name. Now on the run from the Inquisition, she must prove to herself—and the world—that not all wizards are too dangerous to let live.

The savage murder of a bookstore employee throws Nicole into the middle of Inquisition business, like it or not. Driven by her inability to save the young man’s life, she decides to hunt the killer on her own. Using forbidden magic to investigate the past, she learns that the murderer is in fact a disease that could kill the entire werewolf race.

Forced to choose between saving lives and preserving her own, Nicole embraces the magic that sent her into exile. Without werewolves, the power of the Inquisition would dwindle, and she could live without being hunted.

Nicole’s only hope for success lies in the hands of the werewolves she hates and the Inquisition she fears, but finding someone to trust is only the beginning of her problems. There are those who want to ensure that the werewolves go extinct and that the Inquisition falls.

But, if she fails to find a cure, her family—including her twin sister—will perish…

 



My Review:


Nicole is a wizard and is being hunted by the Inquisition. The world thinks that wizard are too deadly to let live. Nicole wants to prove to the world that she is not dangerous. She just wants to live a normal life like everyone else. With the world wanting her dead Nicole has to live her life in secret and hope everyday that she will not be discovered.

Nicole goes into a bookstore to buy a book that her agent told her to pick up and read. In the store Nicole has this feeling of being watched and followed. But when she glances around to see if she can find who ever it is that is stalking her no one seems to be paying her any attention. While standing in line to pay for the book an employee standing behind her is murdered. Nicole feels guilty because she couldn’t save his life and takes it upon herself to find out who killed Scott.

She is questioned by the police who inform her that others have been found murdered the same way as Scott. Investigating Scott’s death puts Nicole back under the radar of the Inquisition. Nicole learns later that Scott was a werewolf and that someone is trying to wipe out the wolves. Nicole is worried that if she can’t stop who ever is killing the werewolves and stop the Inquisition at the same time that she will be in hiding for the rest of her life.

Winter Wolf is filled with action from the first page and it never stops. Winter Wolf is a very enchanting read that once I picked up it left me unable to lay it down until I had read the whole thing from beginning to end. I can’t wait to dive into the next book Blood Diamond to see what else in store for this world.

I recommend Winter Wolf to all fans of witches, wizards, werewolves, mystery and suspense. One click your copy of Winter Wolf today!

My Review:


Jackson’s brother Anderson shows up on his door step one day asking for his help. Anderson is a part of the Inquisition. The Inquisition was going to infiltrate a rogue group of Fenerec. Fenerec are werewolves but they don’t like to be called that and it could be very dangerous to anyone who does. just saying.

Jackson finds a young female Fenerec that has been injured. Jackson is not the kind of person to not help someone in need.

Jackson’s search for his wife and daughter’s killers opens up roads and secrets he never expected. His investigation puts him into danger on more than one occasion and leaves him close to death.

Blood Diamond is a fast paced read that had me hooked from the first page. Like its predecessors it is action packed from beginning to end. The action just keeps on rolling with twists after twists that keeps you guessing right up to the end. Blood Diamond has witches, wizards and werewolves with a few twists added in. I love the twist on witches and wolves and their magic and how it works.

Silver Bullet (Witch & Wolf #4)

Genres: Adult, Urban Fantasy


Blurb:

Nothing was worse than waking up as a squirrel. Not knowing where she is, why she's a squirrel, and why she should be in Georgia comes a close second.

Vicky does know several important things. First, she's not supposed to be a squirrel. Second, two-legger males are intriguing creatures. Third, she likes one particular two-legger male more than the others, and she means to keep him.

Finding her true self is only the beginning. Vicky must hunt those who have taken her friends and ruined her hopes for the future so she can reclaim what is rightfully hers.

Finished with being a victim, Vicky will do everything in her power to put an end to Basin once and for all, even if it means she must make the ultimate sacrifice and bite a silver bullet for the sake of her family, her friends, and the rest of the supernatural world.



My Review:


Vicky, a Fenerec wakes to find that she is now a squirrel. She has no idea why she is now squirrel as she is not supposed to be one. Vicky vows to find out who turned her into a squirrel and why.

Vicky as a squirrel makes her way to a two-legger creatures home. Two-legger creatures are fascinating to Vicky why she is not sure. But this one Vicky really likes and she plans on keeping him.

Vicky makes her way to Elliot Anderson’s home where he finds her in his pool. He sweeps her out as he doesn’t want to see her drown. Elliot has a soft heart. Elliot takes her in the house, dries her off with a towel to keep her from freezing. Elliot makes Vicky a nice little warm bed in a basket with a soft cuddly blanket.

Vicky makes her way up to Elliot’s bedroom during the night while he is sleeping. Vicky wants to watch over him to make sure he is safe but she falls asleep all snuggled up to his neck. She awakens the next morning to a sound coming from downstairs. She tries to wake her two-legger to warn him some is in the house. About the time Elliot wakes there is another two-legger standing in the bedroom at the foot of the bed looking down at them. This two-legger is Richard the Alpha of their pack the Yellow-knife pack in Canada.

Richard helps Vicky to turn back into a human. The process takes a very long time and is painful for her. Vicky has been missing for a while. Elliot’s brother, Jackson and Nicole, Richard’s mate is also missing. Vicky, Jackson and Nicole were all together when they went missing but Vicky has no idea what happened to her or her friends.

Richard, Elliot and Vicky try to piece together what may have happened to Vicky. Their list of suspects soon dwindles down with only a few suspects left on it. Finally Vicky makes a connection with a friend of hers who has custody of her puppies. When she checks she finds that her friend Mark has her puppies and they are missing too. Vicky almost loses it but Richard and Elliot help her keep it together long enough for them to hopefully find her puppies.

Where are the puppies? Where are Jackson and Nicole? Who took them? What do they want with them? Poor Jackson someone is always kidnapping him for one reason or another.

Silver Bullet is filled with action from the first page like all the other books in the Witch & Wolf series. The witches and wolves keep you on your toes as someone is always missing.

I just love how all the pack members take care of each other and always has each others back. They always put their own lives before someone else. As with all the books the twists just keep coming and never lets up. The suspense alone is enough to keep you hanging on wanting to know how it all turns out.

I love this world of the Witch & Wolves and all the characters. I love how they interact with each other. I love their personalities. I love how they lose it when their mate is in trouble. The love and compassion is so thick you can feel it coming off the pages.

I would recommend Silver Bullet to all fans of witches and werewolves with lots of action and a whole lot of love. One click your copy of Silver Bullet today! Be sure and check out the rest of the Witch & Wolf series as well.
