Some Like it Witchy by Heather Blake

 

4 Star

The old Tavistock house is up for sale and Darcy would kill to own this amazing house. However, she doesn’t have the funds and with things getting serious with Nick they don’t need two houses. When she is hired by Cherise to look it over for her bid, they stumble on the real-estate agent Raina Gallagher. Raina had a lot of enemies but there is a dark legend about millions of dollars’ worth of diamonds in the house. Who killed Raina and are there more people in danger?

There were so many suspects with this book. I know who I wanted it to be. I enjoyed the duel mystery in this book.  Trying to figure out if it was the diamonds and Raina that was the cause of Raina’s death kept me guessing as to who the bad guy was.  It made me like the book that much more because it did keep me guessing.  Small spoiler not on the mystery. I loved that Darcy ended up getting the house because of Aunt Ve.

I wasn’t sure if I would like Coleen Marlo but she does an amazing job with each of these characters. I enjoyed how she gave each character their own voice. Even listening to it faster didn’t take away from the story.

Now years later his body is found dead in her apartment. Darcy will figure out what happened and do whatever she can to keep her friend safe.

This book made me soooo mad in a good way. I loved how it all worked out in the end. I loved Kyle’s mom. She was the sanest of the whole family. We finally getting some answers to questions that have been alluded to in other books. It was definitely a good addition to the series.

Ascend by Maya Nicole

 

2 Star

Has the daughter of Lucifer I’ve always had weird rules and consequences. When I break the nose of a classmate, he decides to send me to the Celestial Academy. Danica doesn’t really fit in there nor does she want to. She can’t fly and all of her classmates hate her as she is the daughter of the fallen angel. They don’t want to be tarnished like he is. Will she find allies to help her with the coming war?

I wanted to like this more than I did. I found Danica to be incredibly annoying.  I didn’t think it was cute or hot when she started a relationship with Oliver. He was her teacher and she remained in his class. I did love Ash and once we got to know Tobias, I liked him. Overall, I want to see where the story is going but it isn’t a new favorite.

The Good, the Bad, and the Witchy by Heather Blake

 

4 Star

As You Wish is hired to plan the soiree of Harriette Harkette. Everything is going as planned until the cake isn’t delivered by Michael Healey. When Darcy goes looking for him, she finds him just as he takes his last breath. Since she was there when he died, his ghost is now attached to her. She will need to figure out who wanted him dead and what does it have to do with the midnight black Witching Hour rose.

I enjoyed this one even though I figured out who the bad guy the first time they were introduced. Seeing how Darcy figured it out made it that much better. The ending had me concerned with how things were working out, but it ended well. I loved seeing the continue progress in relationships between Darcy and everyone else. So far I think this is my favorite book in the series.

Cycled by Elise Faber

Scarlett always tries to be good, but things go wrong for her. She is trying to not be bad as she works her dream job with San Francisco Gold. The problem hockey player Kaydon. He brings out her naughty side. She wants to have him but thinks he doesn’t want her. This leads him to think Scar hates him. Once he figures out that Scar wants him, he will do whatever it takes to win her over and prove they are meant to be together. When Scar’s family shows up will this scare him off?

I loved these two. They both thought the other didn’t want. I loved how Kaydon took steps to win Scar over with action and not words. There is one scene with Scar’s brother that had tears rolling down my cheeks from laughing so hard. The brother is moving home and needs a place to stay so Kayden offers up his home which shocked Scar and her brother since Kayden doesn’t know him. They give a tour of the house until they get to the library where prior to the brother showing up Scar and Kaydon had gotten up to some sexy time that broke some things. The brother decides it might be safer and need less bleach to live at Scar’s home and she moves in with Kaydon. Best scene of the book. I can’t wait to see the brother get his happy ending.

Darcy is hired to clean out Elodie Keaton’s mother’s house she was expecting it to take time and energy because of the hording. She wasn’t expecting to find the body of Patrice Keaton. To help Elodie heal she is determined to solve the murder of Patrice but all she has to go on is she was seen a year ago arguing with her boyfriend Anicula.

This book had so many sweet parts but also parts that made me cry.  I love when books come together and give me all the feels. There was growth with each of the characters. You get to see Darcy have fun with Mimi and her relationship grow between all of the other characters.  It was a good addition to the series.

Then when one of the male angels tries to kill her, she ends up being saved by an agent from Hell. She has questions and she hopes Julio can answer them.

I loved this one. It is right on track with the Welcome to Hell series and makes me want to go back and read all of those over again. I also want to know what is going on with Gaia. I have to wait, and I don’t have any patience for that. The writing was good, and the story was better. I loved how the book ends.  I think this was the best book in the series so far.
