“I rode through the night-drenched streets of Atlanta on a mammoth donkey. The donkey’s name was Cuddles.” –Kate Daniels
From the back cover blurb:
After breaking from life with the Pack, mercenary Kate Daniels and her mate—former Beast Lord Curran Lennart—are adjusting to a very different pace. While they’re thrilled to escape all the infighting, Kate and Curran know that separating from the Pack completely is a process that will take time.
But when they learn that their friend Eduardo has gone missing, Kate and Curran shift their focus to investigate his disappearance. As they dig further into the merc’s business, they discover that the Mercenary Guild has gone to hell and that Eduardo’s recent assignments are connected in the most sinister way…
An ancient enemy has arisen, and Kate and Curran are the only ones who can stop it—before it takes their city apart piece by piece.
Yes, I’m going to say the same thing I’ve said about every last one of the previous books in this alternate universe series about an urban fantasy of Atlanta drenched in magic. This was an amazing read—filled with dark intrigue and more of that humor I’ve found endearing about Kate.
Her view on time, life, and the universe is both sobering and hilarious. Her tough exterior merely hides the gushy softness of a woman who loves, but is afraid to lose those she cares for—seeing her past, one could only understand.
But she is no coward, it takes nothing else but courage to let someone inside your heart.
I was right there with Curran and Kate as they discovered this eerie-strange new powerful creature from eons ago. My eyebrows were raised when the cat corpse turned into a bunch of deadly lizards.
Yes, strange. I was hooked.
So, take my recommendation and click this link to go buy it: MAGIC SHIFTS.
