My name is Sora. I was born into this world to a highly respected Mage family. All was well as a child; most children receive their magic at puberty… I was not that fortunate. Shunned by my family, I was cast out on my twenty-first birthday—a failure and disappointment to those who were supposed to love me.Left on my own in Seattle with no friends or money, I made my way through low-paying jobs … jobs down the coast to Southern California. Fate finally smiled upon me in San Diego, where I scored a serving position at a diner.
One night after my shift, I decided to walk to a dive bar near my home to drown my sorrows. That was where I met him: the Master Vampire of the SoCal Clutch. It was either the biggest mistake of my life… or the best decision in the world.

I like how the characters interact and find romance. This was the first in the series and had a interesting cliffhanger.
Enjoyed very much. New author for me.
Bought the entire series after reading this one and the continuation series after that. My husband even loved these. He couldn’t put them down. Great characters and strong powerful women with loving sexy men. Who wouldn’t want to read it?
Good read.
Good development of characters storyline is wonderful keeps you wanting to read more thank goodness there is more.
I love this series I’m now reading the forth one they are slot of fun , witty and bit sarcastic I really love the characters.
A really good book couldn’t put it down and join if I’m beginning to end. Can’t wait to read the rest of the ones in the series
A fun take on the classic magic vs vampire vs werecreatures. The first book was free via BookBub, but I have purchased the next 2 in the series!
I really loved this book. It was different. I rarely buy the next book in a series, but I did buy the second book in this series. If the second is as good as the first one I am sure I will buy many more of this series. If you like this genre then this book is for you.
Now I have read the rest
I got very interested in the characters and had to see what happened next to them. I have now bought more of the series that is currently published. A different spin on the usual “Oh, Vampires are real?” trope. Hope you get hooked on the series like I am.
Already on the next book
An easy to read paranormal romance. Nothing too groundbreaking here. Just starting to set up the world building then we are off to the next book
Loved the whole series
She took an old tired concept, Vampires, and gave it a twist. The action-packed season had me enthralled. One I finished this one, I bought the next one.
I loved this book!!
This is not just another Vampire story.
Fantastic storyline with all the magic, sexy alpha males, strong women & just enough snark to make a perfect combination.
Sometimes in a series, the first book in a series can lose the story while trying to explain the origin of the paranormal activity but not this one. This book explains everything in such a way that you really feel the story as well as each character. I’m new to this author and I’m so excited that this series is already published and waiting for me.
If you love magic and the paranormal this a definite must read. I recommend this book.
An awesome exciting book! Attacked by a vampire, chased by wolf shifters, coming into her magic. Having so much powerful magic, with no way to control it! Who can help and protect her! Will she chose the shifter or the vampires! Is he her true mate? Will they be the family she never had? Will the secrets destroy them or make them stronger? Full of drama, danger, and unexpected twists and turns! The characters are awesome, once you start reading you won’t stop till you finish! Great story!
I received this book as a gift to read and I am going to give a very honest opinion of what I read.
This is am amazing story. I loved the characters, I loved the plot and how everything came together. Even though the story finishes with a happy for now it makes you eager to find out more about the clutch and what is going to happen. I am on of those people that will not buy are even read a free offer if it has a cliffhanger; those stories just frustrate me. This is not one of those stories. This is filled with romance, action, funny lines, sadness, but not tissue type of sadness. It has so much filled into such a small package. I definetly recommend reading this one!
The story starts out with Sora feelings sorry for herself after a day working at the dinner. She was born to two of the most powerful Mages in the Seattle coven. When everyone else came into their power at puberty she did not. Still not receiving her powers by twenty one the Council decided to cast her out; banishment. She was such an embarrassment to her parents they didn’t even say goodbye to her. Selected people drove her into the center of the city and left her there with just the closes on her back. Taking one meager job after another she finally made her way to southern California and settled in San Diego. There she met Giselle; she had lost her husband and daughter in an auto accident a few years back and took Sora under her wing. Sora moved into the apartment over her garage and had dinner with her a few nights a week. As I said she is feeling sorry for herself and decides to go to the bar Curley’s and have a few drinks. She only noticed one other patron there off to the far corner of the bar. She finally left at 1:45am heading home when suddenly she knocked to the grown hitting her head on the concrete blacking out. When she comes to; guy were searching her work apron and took her wallet before they ran off. Making it back home she showered to get the dirty and blood out of her hair and went to bed.
The next few days are very strange for her. People are staring at her everywhere she goes. Then one evening she gets someone knocking on the door and grabbing her baseball bat she waited at the door. She could hear them talking about a scent. Finally she sees her deadbolt unlock and the door opens. Standing there are two huge guys their names Vance and Jake. She demands to know what the want and they seem to be in a trance answering all of her questions. Telling her that Blaze had sent them out to look for her and to find out what she was. Blaze was the Leader of the So Cal clutch of vampires. The next night Blaze shows up they talk he leaves her his card telling her if she needs any advice to give him a call. After he left she tried and succeeded in putting a ward over her door and door frame to keep people out unless she invites them in. The next night it gets its first test and though it worked well the recipient was far from please. Mel the werewolf Alpha walked away in his wolf form snarling and with hair missing on his leg. She called Blaze and asked him about what happen suddenly he was at her door telling her to pack she had to get out of there. Before leaving she placed a ward over all of Giselle’s property so nothing would happen to her then she passed out.
Once Blaze got her to his Clutch he has a lot of explaining to do, hopefully Sora would take it well he could only hope. Oh so much happens in this story and I can’t tell you all that I know then it would take all of the pleasure out of it for you. I will say that Blaze has an older brother that is his second in command. They are both coming close to their 1000 years of age and after that if the don’t find their mates they will fall into a madness. Now will they find their mates? Will there be a war between the werewolf’s? What about the Counsel; what are they going to do when and if they hear about Sora? There it is, now you will have to get the book if you really want to know more of it someone spills more beans than I did.
This was Great! Bring on the next book!
The characters are so well crafted you simply fall for them and I have to kniw how thuscstory continues. The world is fascinating in that if you read paranormal fiction it is familiar but different. As a reader, I am also a lover of words and Janelle Perl uses them well.
All that said … I am off to get the next book.
This book was intriguing to say the least. It kept me entertained and was an overall great book. I loved the way it ended as well.
