Forging A Sword from Broken Chains 4.5
Halfling was a wonderful beginning to this series. I can’t wait to read the next book and see how the characters develop and grow, especially Layla. I’m also excited to see what new adventures the next book will take Layla and Hunter on.
Layla is an eighteen year old girl who doesn’t have any other family besides her alcoholic mother. She’s suffered years of mental abuse, sometimes physical, from her mother. It instilled in Layla that she was useless, ugly and unworthy of love. So when she finds herself accepted by a coven of witches claiming she’s a fellow “sister” it’s not only hard to believe that she’s a witch but that these women actually do care for her and believe in her.
Shortly after being accepted into her new coven chance has Layla and Hunter meeting. The instant they meet Hunter knows Layla is the only woman meant for him, his mate. Layla feels the connection too but her mother’s words fill her with doubt. The more time they spend together the more she realizes that Hunter’s feelings are real and that she loves him just as much. The only problem is that Hunter is a demon and their relationship is forbidden. What happens when hiding their relationship is no longer an option and they have to face the racist ways of old and fight for the love they share?
I enjoyed Halfling. I liked seeing Layla’s character develop. She went from being a girl beaten down and broken to someone stronger and more confident. Transforming from a girl into a young woman. Although Halfling has a younger feel to it I think fans of Deanna Chase’s Jade Calhoun series might enjoy this book.
