Sebastian is a chaos witch, Justin is a vampire, and Pavel is a gargoyle. Each of them is facing a crisis - whether that is a sister who wants to take over their mother's coven, self-confidence, or the fact that they may be turning to stone permanently very soon. No matter, they're all having a moment!
This was a fast-paced story with a variety of subjects/tropes, but it just felt to me as though none of them were actually discussed properly, or dealt with either. The only one that was focused on was the infernal push and pull of whether or not they would be mates. I was at 85% and it still wasn't resolved, yet other parts that I would have loved more information on were just swept aside. For me, there was too much going on with not enough explanation or depth.
On the whole, this was a good read, but nothing that really rang my bell. I'm sure it will be loved by many, but it has just left me wondering if my review would have been different if I'd have read the others.

We have previously met Njáll, but Maurice is someone completely new. Njáll is the new crai and doesn't feel up to the job, even though everyone else seems to have faith and confidence in him. Maurice is a vampire with fae magic, courtesy of The Huntsman, who is charged with 'babysitting' Njáll. He is overjoyed* at the idea (*sarcasm! 😉)
Their relationship isn't immediate, but grows over time, which I loved. Njáll has reasons for doing what he does, the same as Maurice, but when these two actually talk to each other and secrets come out, that's when the heat is turned up.
The thing I love about these books is you get normal situations with paranormal twists. Nothing is ever straight forward and it is talked about from every angle, so you know exactly just how complex something might be, that looks so simple at first glance.
I did absolutely nothing else once I had started this book, and I read it in one sitting as I was physically incapable of putting it down. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and I can't wait for the next one.

The story itself was once again a gruesome read - enough detail given that you felt the horror of it, without it being too much and putting you off your cornflakes! You also get a personal insight into just how much doing this 'job' can impact both Levi and Trudy. Trudy's strengths are coming on in leaps and bounds, and with Levi by her side, soon her self-confidence will follow.
This was exceptionally well written, with no editing or grammatical errors that disrupted my reading flow. A nice twist to the ending, before you get your HFN with Levi and Trudy, leaving you once again wanting more from this psychic duo. Absolutely recommended by me.
