"There is never a dull moment in this adventure"
Lizzie Brown was adopted and never felt the need to look
for her biological parents. So when her grandmother phones
her from out of the blue wanting to meet her she is
expecting a frail old woman. Ready to celebrate her 30th
birthday she answers the door and finds her not so frail
looking grandmother outside. Before she knows what has
happened her grandmother has her locked in the bathroom and
is ranting on about covens, spells and demons. Her first meeting with her grandmother isn't going exactly
as she had imagined it but things get even more bizarre
when a creature appears in the bathroom with her. The
Xeres demon gets a good look at Lizzie and grandma starts
pulling out ziploc bags of strange things. Before she
knows what is happening the demon is gone and her dog
starts talking to her. This is definitely turning out to
be one hell of a birthday for Lizzie. The fun isn't over there though. Protector Dimitri joins
the party and things start getting hot. Then her
grandmother gets taken and Lizzie has to train and practice
as fast as she can so she can go rescue the family she
never knew she had. Will she be able to kill Vald? Well
the pressure is on because she is the demon slayer and if
anyone can kill him, Lizzie can. This action packed Cosy Paranormal romance is filled to the
brim with demons, werewolves, demons, griffins and witches.
There is never a dull moment in this adventure that is a
healthy cross between Stephanie Plum and Julie Kenner's
Demon Mom series. A good story with extremely interesting
characters, only the quickness of the heroine accepting her
new family was slightly questionable. With magic and mayhem mixed with love and laughter the
author has put together a good tasty starter that many
readers will enjoy. Not dark, deep or hot this would be a
good novel for someone new to the Paranormal Romance genre
to try.
