1200 pages of spellbinding dystopian urban fantasy. In a world with few choices, evil runs rampant and none of the old rules apply. What began as an exploratory mission to see if anything is left on Earth turns sour fast. A Vampire attack, a possessed priest, and a gateway to Hell mean fallout from the spell gone bad that pinned everyone in South America is far from finished. Retreat is tempting, …
Retreat is tempting, but nowhere is safe.
Evil is leaching in from somewhere. If they can’t find the breach, they’re finished.
Deceived
Vampires aren’t supposed to feel anything beyond hunger and bloodlust, but Viktor still feels a whole lot. He hates what he’s become, but there’s no escape. Not from the dying city smothering him, or from his maker, an arrogant tyrant who demands absolute loyalty.
Twisted
The sea is the only life Juan’s ever known—not counting the decade he spent as a Vampire. Those years gave him a healthy aversion for anything supernatural, but he’s a shifter now. It’s way better than being one of the undead, but he still doesn’t trust magic. Paired up with Aura to teach him, he falls and falls hard, but she spurns his advances.
Abandoned
Recco misses his cozy lab and well-organized veterinary clinic, but ten years as a Vampire stripped him of any illusions. Life is done handing him everything he wants. He could rail against fate—which never bought him much—or suck it up and keep going. Defeating the Cataclysm broke Vampirism’s hold on him, though. Even better, it threw Zoe square in his path and kicked open the door for him to bond with a wolf.

This set contains the first three books in the Bitter Harvest series (Deceived, Twisted, and Abandoned). These books should not be read as standalones and this set makes it easy to read them all. There is violence and sex so 18+. This storyline is a different take on vampires and shifters. The author did a great job of explaining what is going on in the world. This is not your typical vampire and shifter story. The storyline will keep you guessing what twists and turns will be revealed next. It definitely kept me riveted.
Deceived 4*
Very consuming tale of an upside down world. Ketha is a very strong and determined seer, her gift is powerful but her grim existence is draining. Their dire situation is described so well and is so detailed that I didn’t have to wonder what they did to survive. It is so realistic that I was pondering if I would be able to do that to survive. :0 Viktor is different, I’ve never read tell of a vampire that didn’t love being a vampire, lol but if your heart ain’t in then you fake it. His situation is dangerous, his instant connection to a shifter is puzzling but these two form a bond and are destined. It was very interesting reading how they dealt with their predicament and their urgent desire to make things better before its too late.
Twisted 5*
This is an adventurous tale of the sometimes treacherous journey of a group of friends. The battle they are waging together against evil is real. It is amazing to me how the author can write such an all-consuming plot, as the characters learn to understand their unique gifts so does the reader. The romance sweetens the pot a little but the main focus here is their struggle to right a world that the creatures of Hell has overtaken, their sacrifice and compassion is great considering humankind rejects paranormals’ yet they continue to fight. Very intense, action-packed story.
Abandoned 5*
Wow, another adventurous and magic tale about the trials of a mix-matched group of paranormals and their fight to survive. Very supportive & connected group, some strong in their own specialty as they learn together how to conquer the evil they are surrounded by. Very clever plot that you can just sink down into and ride the waves of anticipation, mystery and even a little of the fun romance stuff. Very well-written and intriguing story.
Book1 Deceived – I had no clue as to what the story was about, well it turned out to be about a spell, that had gone wrong many years before, and it was slowly destroying the earth. The backstory for how this happened, and what occurred during those years, is fascinating. We have shifters, magic and vampires and humans as well; and as you read you’ll learn the good, the bad, and everything in-between that is slowly poisoning nature in such a way that the earth is now on a course of total destruction. We learn that there may be one way to stop and revive the planet; but is it real or just a myth. If it’s real can the different races put aside there distrust and hatred for each, and work together in time to save not only themselves, but the planet and every living thing on it. Will they agree to it, even if it means they might forever be changed, becoming something new, neither just vampire or shifter. This story is filled with surprising twist and turns, even impossible love.Wow !!! Book 2 Twisted is jam packed with unexpected surprises. It appears that the reversal spell was too late to safe the world outside of Ushuaia; as expected and hoped by the characters in Deceived (book 1). The group of shifters have sailed from port to check out other locations for survivors and they discover that unknown evil and horrors have spread. They must fight to save not only themselves, but those few they find along the way, maybe the rest of humanity as well. It appears that the “cataclysm” had the power to release such evil upon the world that soon it could be all that will be left. We will have loss of friends and loved ones, but among the sorrow, pain and desperation, love will also be found. There is not enough reading between the lines to give you the complete range of action and feelings within the pages of Twisted. Book 3 introduces us to amazing shifters of the sea. These beings have lost thousands to the Cataclysm and the evil it has spread and trust no one. Evil can be anywhere, in anyone, shifter or human. Those on the ship continue to look for others, a land that has not been affected, a possible safe haven. Along the way more evil has again brought destruction and only a few people have survived; some join those on the ship while others chose to stay, once our band of heroes destroy the evil that had been decimating them for over 10 years. We find allies, but can they be trusted; I feel only time will tell. Those on the ship try to stay strong, not only for those they have found love with, but for humanity. Others discover new love and will fight all odds to stay together. This series is amazing in it’s fantastic world building, strong characters and love and thrills. You never know what’s coming next and when it comes, your fighting along side them as you read what they have to go through, what they learn along the way, that may or may not help not only them but mankind’s survival. Do not pass up this series, you’ll want to be along with them for the voyage that may save the earth and all that call it home. (less)
