Ancient curses…family feuds…finding a happily ever after can be a real nightmare for the modern witch.
DARKANGEL:
As the future prima, or head witch of her clan, Angela McAllister is expected to bond with her consort, her soul mate, during her twenty-first year, thus ensuring that she will come into her full powers at the appointed time. The clock is ticking down, and her consort has yet to … consort has yet to make an appearance. Instead, her dreams are haunted by a man she’s never seen, the one she believes must be her intended match. But with time running out, and dark forces attempting to seize her powers for their own, Angela is faced with a terrible choice: give up her dreams of the man she may never meet and take the safer path, or risk leaving her clan and everyone in it at the mercy of those who seek their ruin.
DARKNIGHT:
Kidnapped by a rival witch clan, Angela McAllister envisions a dark future for herself until she discovers her captor’s brother is the unknown man who has haunted her dreams since she was a child. Forced to re-evaluate everything she’s ever known about the Wilcox witches, Angela begins to explore the powerful connection that binds her to Connor Wilcox, despite the generations of hostility between their families and the disapproval of those closest to her. And when a dark, malignant force arises, Angela knows she must draw on her growing powers as prima to protect enemies and allies alike…even if her choice threatens to tear her new and fragile love apart.
DARKMOON:
One hundred and fifty years ago, a terrible curse descended on the Wilcox clan, dooming generations of women to an early death should they bear a child to the bloodline of Jeremiah Wilcox. Now Angela McAllister is carrying Connor Wilcox’s child, and if she can’t find a way to break the curse, that same doom will fall upon her. The solution to her dilemma lies somewhere in the past—her own, and that of the woman who cast the curse so many years before. Angela’s quest to find the answers she needs will transform the lives of everyone she knows, Wilcox and McAllister alike, and will forever change everything she has ever believed about herself.

I was bored with it.
Great for college aged kid looking for a fun read, not gonna cut it if hour older, very young premise.
Interesting ‘world’ but I felt like the author unnecessarily stretched one novel worth of story into three books, which made getting thru all the parts that did not further the plot pretty tiresome. Skipped over a lot just to finish, otherwise I probably would have put it aside completely and moved on to something with better pacing. Also, to be clear, I’m pretty sure the target audience here is not 55 year old female like myself. Protagonist is 21 year old female with accompanying uncertainties/angst. Better suited to a much younger audience, perhaps? (High school?)
Disappointing. I kept asking myself when the book was going to pick up. This is a three-piece set of books, which means that the cliffhanger ending wasn’t as much a deal-breaker, however it was definitively annoying. I like that it’s set in Arizona which is a nice change but otherwise I felt it dragged and didn’t deliver on the romance or the magic. Possibly there is potential with a major rewrite but as is, it was one I’d suggest a pass on.
First book was the slowest…building the plot and characters…book two and three each got better. Sex was implied but not graphic. Good read.
her IMAGERY is fantastic…
you FEEL LIKE YOU’RE THERE living… plus the DEPTH of characters is so real YOU THINK THEY ARE “ACTUALLY REAL PEOPLE”…
Author set the story in Arizona, and I could see the towns, restaurants, and mountains in my head as she described them.
A lot of depth. Not much magic Good characters
I read these three all in one setting. Honestly couldn’t put them down.
Need to make sure you have all three of the books before you start. They have a cliffhanger in the first two.
