STORY SUMMARY (Contains spoilers if you haven't read book one!)
Shira Naiman is the most powerful witch Crystal knows. Crystal needs her help to fight the war, a war for their minds, a war waged by parasitic demons who suck on their powers and turn witches into demons themselves.
But Shira has a weakness. As do all witches. And only through their weakness can demons bring witches under their control.
Shira's weakness soon pulls Crystal down into a world of abject deceit, betrayal, sex, passion and a madness so vicious that it finally brings her into the hands of the one they call Jack, the most powerful demon the hunters have ever met.
And the demon wants Crystal. Only Crystal.
And he'll stop at nothing to get her.

Hope it’s not the end
This series is intriguing and now I want to know more about Roxy and the other characters. Thought this was the end, but glad it isn’t. I hope Miss Dunning continues this series!

This story was a different kind of 'witchy' tale than what I've read in the past. It contains a few different supernatural creatures such as witches, demons, hunters etc. But the action and magic mostly happen within their dreams. In this case Crystal our witch is in danger from a demon named Jack, who will do whatever he can to drain her power and bring her over to the dark side.
At times I found this a little mind-boggling mainly because if I had put the book down for a short time and then came back to it, I had to back track to remember whether or not a particular part of the story was in the dreamscape or real life. The story switches back and forth between the two constantly.
There is not a strong amount of romantic emotions in this one as I had expected but there is certainly no lack of lust. Crystal has fallen for her hunter/protector - Luke who appears in her dreams, particularly when she's in danger. As she is a witch, she remembers her dreams when she wakes up and is determined to find this man with the help of another witch who also helps her to learn the full extent of her powers. The only problem is that Luke will wake from his dreams and not remember a thing. However things begin to change over the course of the series and the story grows much more interesting.
There are some very sexy times and some very graphic violence in this series. The romance and sexy times are not that often but you can certainly feel the emotions between Crystal and Luke in the moment.
The series has plenty of drama in particular between witches as they don't work very well together, despite the efforts and suggestions that they would be stronger if they did work together.
I enjoy Rachel's writing style, and I liked that this tale was very different to others in this genre that I've read. Her development of Crystal, whilst not a huge difference from the start to the finish, her witchcraft certainly progressed nicely.
Overall, an interesting series that certainly holds your attention and gives you something a little different in the paranormal romance genre.
4 stars!
