Bloodless victims trouble the Castle Falls Sheriff’s Office as David Flanagan is called in to be held accountable. He knows his sire is in town and responsible for the deaths, but he fears he’ll lose Ginger’s love if she and her family discover what he was while under Ezra Tremere’s power.
Tremere introduces himself to Ginger and the entire Blackstone / Donahue family come together to save the life of David in an attempt to stop Tremere’s plans which could also mean the end of Ginger’s life as a witch.
Born in Pensacola, Florida, Phaedra is the eldest of four children. She began writing in notebooks with her best friend in middle school. After leaving college for a job in the Graphic Arts industry, Phaedra continued her love of writing in her spare time and was lucky enough at a writer's conference to meet Dean Wesley Smith, who later became her writing mentor, along with his wife, the bestselling mystery/fantasy/romance/science fiction writer, Kristine Kathryn Rusch.
Phaedra lives in Atlanta, Georgia. When not writing, she and her daughter spend their time playing games, letterboxing, or watching anime.
Starting to dislike this series slightly. Never mind the editing errors, too instead of to and bates instead of baits, or the grammatical ones either. But rather there is far too much hyperbole. For herself she is so powerful that she doesn't know what she is capable of, the Jason is the most powerful shifter ever, Melody she seems to never do anything right. For David, he either walks on water (in addition to being a vampire, a shifter and now a witch) or he is a control freak. If this series continues, I will most like likely get it from the library (if they have it in their woefully meager collection) rather than buy it.
The best so far in this series! Action packed, suspense, lots of emotions and wonderful characters. Ginger and David are in danger from David's sire, a very strong and evil vampire. It is time for the finale of this story-line. Lost family members, best friends and a community come together to make their world a safe place.
I think the author tried to go big with the plot -- but then made her key characters act like they were teens on a TV show ... very close to TSTL territory.
The whole family thing was also swept under the rug extremely quickly -- from resentment of 10 years, estranged (esque) sister of 10 years -- to just ... HEA sort of?
After reading all three books, I just same now it is getting more interesting. The author let you get from 0 to 100 within these three separate build-up to lead you like an addict wanted more, waiting for more like okay what happened next. We need to know, you can't leave us hanging from a Simi-cliff, to later be disappointed there's nothing else to report. There has to be more to the story, growth to the characters abilities and the enemies they sell encounter. Plus are we not missing a family member that hadn't appeared yet? Give us more info about the next book like usually done. Thank you for the escape and it's destination.😆
If this was truly the end to the trilogy (as the author has stated) the ending was blah. It needs to be fleshed out and there are outstanding questions to still be answered. I’m hoping the author has changed her mind on just writing 3 books and that’s why there wasn’t a lot of clarity (I really did enjoy the books).
Gosh, I didn’t expect the Blackstone bloodline to be this complicated, but yay for Kevin! When David’s maker decides he wants some of David’s shifter mojo, all hell breaks loose in Castle Falls. Even the lond lost sister Daphne comes to help and turns out to be a cyberwitch with rather unique powers. I loved the story, loved the characters, but the end was a bit of an eyebrow-raiser, now I have way too many expectations for the 4th book...
This book, the third in the series is the darkest by far. Having read the others , and falling in love with the characters, I was amazed at the darkness in this one. I would wholly recommend these books and would like to thank Phaedra for the stunning reads.
Really good story. Frustrating editing errors in the last half of the book could not be ignored. Weldon needs an actual editor because so far this series is rife with errors.
