Witches Incorporated: K. E. Mills

Witches,Incorporated is a surprise for me. Usually I shy away from historicals and alternate histories (or things that just feel like them) . WitchesIncBut I got pulled into the series by the first book The Accidental Sorcerer and I have not been able to pull away yet. I love the characters and setting. There is just something about it that keeps me hooked. I think I’ll be reading books in this series as long as the author publishes them.

Wages of Sin: Jenna MaClaine

WagesofSin

Usually, I stay away from historicals… but I am glad that I took the chance on Wages of Sin. I thought the book was an enjoyable read with a lot of detail and interesting characters.

I think that the only character that I had an issue with was the hero. All of the other characters were interesting and he was just a bit flat. Other than that I thought the book was a good read and I will continue reading the author and the Cin series.

Description (MacMillan)

Dulcinea Craven descends from a long line of witches, and she has just inherited wild, untrained magical powers that she has no idea how to control. Now a ruthless vampire and an age-old demon are determined to enslave Cin and steal her power for their own. Her only hope is The Righteous, a band of warrior vampires who slay the rogue undead. Among them is Michael, a fierce swordsman who inflames Cin’s most primal hungers. Showing her a sensual pleasure beyond anything in the mortal realm, she must choose between the human existence she has always known, and immortality as a vampire—a new life filled with forbidden urges, dark yearning, and unearthly passions…
