Customer Reviews

A keeper

I've read this book for the third time, now. I enjoyed it this time just as much as the first two. I like reading something out of the ordinary on occasion and this is. This isn't your typical witches and warlocks. There are no good or bad witches and warlocks, just people. I liked the way Gillian and Mason are forced the marry, because of the good of their people. How they relate to marriage and what a baby will mean and what could happen if a witch uses her powers when she's pregnant. The things that happen to the two and what they do to each other make for a delightful read.

A Delightful Paranormal Romance

Gillian Barnett is a witch. No, not in the way some are thinking! :) She is an actual witch. Her mother, grandmother and sister are witches. Her father and twin brothers are warlocks. She is ordered by the Council to marry a man hand-picked by them. She must marry a fertile warlock in the hope that she will have strong, fertile children.The Council matches her with Mason Blacksword. He is the complete opposite of what she longs for in a mate. Even though he is tall, powerfully built and extremely handsome, she believes him to be a control freak. He never smiles nor does he laugh. She believes Mason's gift is his control - his inner strength. In contrast, Gillian has been blessed with the gift of love and compassion. She believes that their gifts clash and their marriage will never work out. Gillian demands his love and sets out to win his heart. Mason tries to remain aloof, unemotional but he has a hard time especially when confronted with Gillian's beauty, determination and gentleness. The wall he has encased himself in starts to crack as Gillian weaves a spell over him. She teaches him how to smile and more importantly - to love. But a shadow hoovers overhead. An unknown danger is stalking Gillian. Someone is toying with her, sending her "things" that would give anyone nightmares. It is up to Mason to save her.This was a funny, heartwarming and utterly delightful story. I loved the chemistry between Mason and Gillian. The love scenes were yummy, too. Grab yourself a copy and enjoy this marriage of convenience with a paranormal twist.
