Jun 9, 2025
Jade is the last of the paranormal boys to find love, and to be honest, he doesn't believe he deserves it anyway, not after nearly opening a Fey portal. That changes when he runs into Flyn, an old work colleague he had a crush on. It turns out that the crush was reciprocated, and they reconnect, albeit only as friends(!!!) We all know how that's going to turn out!
Jade and Flyn are total opposites but complement each other in pretty much every way. Although they try to take it slowly, events happen that speed things up. I loved that Flyn searched for Jade, not happy until he knew he was safe.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend this book as a standalone, as I feel there were events mentioned in here that I knew nothing about. I also found it a little difficult to fully grasp the connection between the boys, as I wasn't 'there' for anything they went through. And trying to remember who was with whom was just too much, and I stopped trying.
Saying that, I still enjoyed this story and would definitely read this series from the beginning. Recommended for those who have read the previous books.

Daphne doesn't know magic exists, but then, she does have other things on her mind, such as her crooked boss, who may have had her friend killed. With perfect timing, she is notified that she has won a holiday on Darkaway Island. It is her neighbour who encourages her to go. So she does. When she gets there, she realises that maybe there is more in the world than she had thought.
Travis is a werewolf actor who is recognised pretty much by everyone but Daphne. Due to complications from his dead father, he is the bachelor for a new show, Date-a-Wolf. And wouldn't you know it, Daphne is dragged into it too.
This was a light, easy read with a kooky island and characters. The pacing was smooth and flowed nicely, especially in the scenes with Travis and Daphne, as their feelings grew beyond what was expected in the show. There were some parts that felt superfluous to me, but that's just my opinion.
If you're looking for a cosy paranormal rom-com with a bunch of great characters, then this may be just for you. Personally, I am looking forward to returning to Darkaway Island, hopefully, with all my memories intact!

This particular book tells the story of Ramsey and Vivienne. You know that they are just perfect for each other but with their own stubbornness and outside circumstances get in the way? I won't say for sure but I will say that I was gripped by their story, in turn, I was sad, happy, and concerned - you name it, I think the emotion will be in this book.
I love how the druids can tell if another one of them is nearby, even without seeing them. And I also loved how they knew that something was going to happen even before Vivi's symptoms became known. It almost reminded me of the Jedi Knights - "there's a disturbance in the Force!"
This series just keeps getting better and better. We greet old friends and get to know new ones. Personally, I love the time spent on drawing away each layer of the characters so that you get a deeper, more intimate knowledge of them. I know Brenan's book is out next which should be good but I really can't wait for Kale's story! He intrigues me ;)
Highly recommended for all Paranormal fans out there.

Apr 10, 2023 (Updated Apr 10, 2023)
There is simply nothing that I can criticise about this book and trust me, I was looking. I adore how the characters get to know each other over time - yes, there's instant attraction and we all know that exists but this pair actually had time to get to know each other before moving the relationship on any further. For this reason, although they argue and fall out, they are stronger together. J never reacts the way that Matt expects him to which makes for good reading because it means you're not sure about the reaction either. There is a lot going for this pair and a lot of obstacles in their way too but because of the strength of their foundation, they face it together.
This is an excellently written, well-paced and moving story that brought both disbelief and tears to my eyes. A fantastic start to the series and I will definitely be looking for more by this author as well as the continuation of the series. Highly Recommended.
