Book Description
Have you ever been so stubborn that you failed at something? Yeah? Me too! I hail from an ancient line of werewolves, so you’d think being me would be easy. If only two very important things were not standing in my way. ONE: Zach Brighton - my betrothed. TWO: My wolf was very different! Everyone said I should be happy he still wanted me. I was not. Then, I met someone else, a mystery man who changed everything, but held secrets of his own that threatened his ability to claim me. Maybe I wasn’t meant to be claimed. Maybe I was broken. Or Maybe, I was just waiting for my new life to catch up. This is book ONE of The Ancients Series. This paranormal romantic suspense story MUST be read in order. The main character's story concludes in book 4, but all four of those books are already available! 1 - Shadows of the Ancients 2 - Falling into the White 3 - Branches of the Willow 4 - Bound by the Moon 5 - Stars from Author J. Kirsch - One sexy, witty, enticingly snarky wolf girl? Check. A unique take on werewolf power and relationship dynamics? Check. This is an overall fun read with dialogue that will have you laughing out loud at times and raising your eyebrows at others. In one evening I ran across this deliciously wolfy paranormal book, and a few hours later I had to buy book #2 and #3 in the series. Yes, it's THAT good. If you like Patricia Briggs or Jeaniene Frost, you will enjoy Ms. Butler's writing.

Daughters of Seth
Author: L.K. Machacek
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1460211421
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
Evoking a spirit similar to such classics as Tolkien's The Hobbit, C.S. Lewis' The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and George R. R. Martin's Game of Thrones, Daughters of Seth is a lyrical, intimate, multi-layered story in the fantasy genre that begs to be the foundation of an epic ongoing series. However, to merely compare Daughters of Seth to the works of others would not be adequate to speak to the distinctive voice that marks the style of L.K. Machacek. This is an earthy, elemental, deep, visceral story that courageously, confidently, and skillfully explores the boundaries of magic, myth, desire, loyalty, and destiny. It authentically depicts the rich and timeless tapestry of the bonds and love between family as well as those who are knit at the heart through friendship and loyalty. At the same time, these themes are married to the darker gravity of ruthless ambition, bitterness through heartbreak and unspeakable loss, and a rage and vengeance that twists and burns.
