Bloodmagic ( Blood Destiny 2)
By Helen Harper
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

After escaping the claws of Corrigan, the Lord Alpha of the Brethren, Mack is trying to lead a quiet lonely life in Inverness in rural Scotland, away from anyone who might happen to be a shapeshifter. However, when she lands a job at an old bookstore owned by a mysterious elderly woman who not only has a familiar passion for herbal lore but also seems to know more than she should, Mack ends up caught in a maelstrom between the Ministry of Mages, the Fae and the Brethren.

Now she has to decide between staying hidden and facing the music, as well as confronting her real feelings for the green eyed power of Corrigan himself.

I really enjoyed this. I love that it’s set in the UK the story is really good the characters are well written i absolutely love Mackenzie she is a strong female lead.

When a female Shifter comes to town seeking refuge, Feline Shifter Sean Morrissey claims the new arrival and finds a beautiful woman who looks him straight in the eye without fear, stirring the mating frenzy within him.

To relocate to a new Shiftertown, half-Fae, half-Shifter Andrea Gray must accept a new mate. But Andrea's intense attraction to Sean is something she never expected-a perilous complication for a woman with a troubled past.


This is becoming one of my favourite shifter series. I love and hate the premise nobody wants to be in a shock collar but you could imagine this actually happening if shifters existed in real life. This book shows some kickass females and some eye candy in our Irish boys! I really enjoyed this storyline it kept me glued to the book. It also targets deep issues and that we can overcome them regardless of how hard it gets!

3 Minutes to Midnight ( Midnight Trilogy 1)
By L.M. Hatchell
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A small Dublin pub …

… holds the key to humanity’s survival.

Who will learn its secret?


Half vampire, half fae, Phoenix is an abomination in the eyes of the supernatural community. Screw them! She’s more than happy to play human in the cosy Irish pub she calls home.

At least until an annoying werewolf comes knocking.

Because Phoenix may be done with the supernatural world, but it’s not quite done with her.

Her birth has triggered a prophecy, and now the clock is ticking. Humanity will be the first to suffer for her existence.

Everything, and everyone, she loves is in danger, and as the body count rises Phoenix must learn to embrace the darkest parts of herself.

Or lose it all.


I wasn’t sure about this at first but I ended up really enjoying it. Definitely a lighter fun read that flowed really well. The story and characters were good, full of all the supernatural creatures we’ve come to love.

KNOTTED is the fourth book in the Dark Faeverse series. You don't have to have read any of the others, but I have. I don't think it impacted my enjoyment in any way.

I definitely enjoyed this more than the last couple! Although the Fae still manipulate, at least Karax sees where he went wrong and what his mistakes are. I also liked how he was there for her when no one else was, even if he did help create the situation in the first place.

There are still a couple of plot holes, where the timing goes off track, particularly near the 75% mark and afterwards, but on the whole, this was so much better than the others. I didn't really enjoy Frozen, although Entangled was a little bit better. In my opinion, Knotted is on par with Thorned, so I'm happy to see it get back on track.

It's the Mist Court next, and I can't wait.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
