Agent Cassandra Liddell is an FBI forensic psychologist on assignment in London to help them investigate a serial killer who has been copying Jack the Ripper. While there something strange starts to happen that makes her question what she knows leading her to acknowledge the existence of fae. Realizing that the serial killer is fae she struggles to pursue him and must rely on another fae who might just be the killer.

FBI agent and profiler, Cassandra Liddell is sent on assignment to London to help with an investigation into a series of Jack the Ripper copycat killings. Entering London, Cassandra soon discovers that the myths of the fae might be more real than she once believed because there is something behind these killings screaming supernatural.

Agent of Enchantment was a lovely surprise (not to mention I fell in love with the cover - blonde pink hair rullz!).


The fae live among us. And one of them is a serial killer....more
I thought this would be a simple profiling case. Just another Jack-the-Ripper wannabe, prowling London’s streets, searching for easy kills. I was wrong. This killer is fae, and he’s as elusive as smoke on the wind. But I’m an FBI profiler, and it’s my job to track him down.

Blurb wise I wasn’t really sold. I had a feeling the book might be weird. Mixing two such different kind of stories should have been hard right?

Slightly weird even😂
Wasn’t sure that would blend well.
Plus agents really aren’t my thing in books. Tv-shows though? I devour those kinds👏

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review
So I had heard about this book from several authors' newsletters, but at some point I apparently decided not to add it to my TBR. Fast forward a month or so and I see it on NetGalley and decide 'why not, it's free'. Famous last words, should have stuck by my original decision.

I truly enjoyed this, and now I'm waiting desperately for the next book, be assured though that the novel doesn't end with a nasty cliff-hanger but injects enough curiosity to maintain the reader's interest. The characters were easily likeable leaving the novel with a feeling of credibility. There's the sexy detective, the sexy tall dark and handsome fae and the problematic local police. She's a bit on the snarky side, but the author manages to insert these comments in just the right places, lea

To my surprised I enjoyed this one- I highly recommend the audio! I liked Cassandra the main character quite a bit but her character did get a bit half-cocked as things went on. She was certainly a smart and resourceful woman however, and I'm definitely going to read the other books to see how she gets on.

Wow this was disappointing.
Set in London with an educated grown ass woman and still everything went to shit in a fae made basket.
We start off with a plot, then after a few chapters we go "Fuck the plot! We gonna create more questions to not answer. Even more questions than we already have!" and after that is done we go "shrug, have a blip of the plot cause reasons". K? You covered? No? I wonder why..

Agent of Enchantment is the first book in this genre I've read in a while and I enjoyed getting back into the urban fantasy vibe again after a bit of a break from such tales. The story and characters caught my interest from the opening scene and held it until the end. In fact, several nights I read for longer than I should have, wanting to see what would happen next, and I'm feeling tired as I now write this review! The world building is great--I particularly appreciated all the snippets of Lond

This was surprisingly good. I liked it, the plot kind of got derailed a little bit but all in all, a good read.


GR is seriously starting to piss me off. The fuck you mean I've read this two times?!
I ONLY FINISHED IT TODAY!
And now you want to start fucking with my damn updates!? Well you know what?

But you know what? This is actually a good book. I was completely taken by surprise. It has a Jericho-Fucking-Barrons (AKA Roan - what is with these Roan/Ronan type bad asses?!) type feel with some fae shit and Jack the Ripper type shit with some CSI and FBI shit going down with Interpol.
Can I get a Fuck Yes?


DNF at 30% because not only was the main love interest that stupid "I hate him, but I love him cliche" but he was also the guy who doesn't explain anything while constantly nagging at the main character. The main character came across as incredibly dull with nothing to distinguish her from other female protagonists of her type, and the magical world was not being revealed in a very interesting way that gave me any reason to care or be intrigued. And I really hate Rowan. I want to punch his stupi

I love that once more the author (s) have definitely delivered. I was able to connevt with characters right away and it never hurts they always have strong female leads who are in no way perfect. Add a little bit of the dark, tortured, twisty and completely yummy male characters and you have a great combination. One of those books I hated putting down to have to do some mundane, daily task. Loved it and cannot wait for the next.

October Daye meets Criminal Minds in London...
It was pretty good. By the end, I liked several of the characters. It was pretty fast paced, so a quick read. The parts in Faerie were a bit clunky feeling, like the transition from one world to the other was too much. I’m not sure how to explain it. October Daye does a fair bit of jumping back and forth, but it feels really smooth and easy. This didn’t. But, it is a first book, and they often suffer for the need of world building.

Better than I expected. I really enjoyed the story and I would definitely continue the series. I listened to it through Audible and I wasn't totally satisfied with the narrator. She seemed to read quicker than the story called for. As for the story in general, I was a little disappointed by the language and I heard Cassandra' mantra a few too many times. Otherwise it was good. Cassandra was a little slow to pick up on fae things, but that was probably just to continue the drama.

I was totally, and pleasantly, surprised by this book. I am ashamed to admit it, but I actually started out reading this book with the impression that it would irritate me and not really meet, or even exceed, my expectations. I have read countless books of a similar nature: the heroine finds out she has magical powers, and not just any magical powers, but it turns out she is one of the most powerful beings of all time, and of course she happens to catch the eye of a powerful and sexy man. Okay,

I loved the authors voice, the character is independent and snarky, but the story drove me nuts. Probably because I misread the premise. It's called Dark Fae FBI, so I thought the story was going to be about a Fae FBI agent who solves an arcane crime. Which sounded Frigging Awesome.

This book was amazing. It brought together a world of Fae, and some very unexpected moments that have you saying "No freaking way!" There were plenty of moments with magic, along with some lusty goodness that seems to be building into something more along the way. This book was completely unpredictable. I found myself unable to get enough. If I could just fall into this world everything would be okay, there would be an escape from reality which is what I crave, because of this I can't wait for b

I highly recommend this mini-series!!!

Amazing story! The main character is really smart and analyzes the situation. She's attracted to some of the guys, but she's still level-headed and doesn't throw herself onto the guys. This is a great mystery novel with fantasy sprinkled in. Character development is good, and the world-building was good. There is a hint of romance, but it's more about the character beginning to understand her powers and unraveling the identity of the serial killer.

So I tried but I just can't do it. There was lots of potential here but I really can not get into a book where the police procedurals are poorly written. I tried to push through that since this is the first book in the series but you top that off with an MC that puts herself into stupid situations, an adult MC who all of a sudden isn't all human and has magic that she just didn't know about all her life who falls for the mysterious bad boy because he's mysterious and a jerk... Yeah, I'm just don

This is a solid start to a series, and a fascinating world. And I loved 98% of it.
The bit I did not love was Roan. He treated her like scum from the start, and that's bullshit given what we find out at the end. And the only moment the heroine did something I thought was dumb, in this whole book, was when she let it slide and spoke to him again.

Really enjoyed this book. It had moments that reminded me of the fever series, which I love. A human, goes to London, finds out about another world, full of fae. Oh, and of course there's a mysterious man. I won't say anymore, as I went into this completely blind and that made it all the better.

First book of the new year.
One of the best Adult Fae books I've ever read.
I can't wait to dive in to the next one.
I liked that it felt dark which most fae books don't. They start off light and flowy then for brief minutes they show the dark spot, then back to light and flowy.
This one didn't sit that way, to me anyway, it started off dark and stayed that way.
Which was awesome as a reader.
