Cassidy runs a little antique/pawn shop in Charleston – but few of her patrons know her true job: finding cursed, haunted or otherwise dangerous magical items and taking them off the market. It’s a mission her family has had for a long time, aided and guided by the vampire, Sorren and her employee T...
3.5 starsWell, first thing first ... the blurb is slightly misleading!! I thought that the story would be mainly of Cassidy and his business partner, Sorren. But Sorren didn't appear until about 1/4 of the story and most of the times, I felt that he did things out of Cassidy's reach. Instead, Cassid...
It seemed to take me ages to finish this book. And I kept asking myself, why am I not more enthusiastic about this read?The writing is well done. The characters are all well developed (except for Sorren, the vampire, who's flat and uninteresting), the setting comes alive and I adore Charleston. The ...
I loved this book, it drew me in from the start. The action started more or less from page 1 and continued right to the end. The story was different and really flowed.

This was a fast-paced urban fantasy with a twist: antiques. So, lots of history was tossed into the mix, and I loved it. Indeed, I had a hard time putting this book down. It was easy to get into, easy to connect with the characters, and plenty of fun to watch them battle supernatural beasties, a dem...
[I got an ARC through NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.] Hard to tell whether I liked it, or found it simply “OK”, so let’s consider this a 2.5 stars. There are a lot of good ideas in this novel. About the magical community (the Alliance isn’t so big, the Family is likely to become a ...
DNF at 60%. The cover grabbed me and the synopsis made me think this could be quite a fun read.It turned out it took a lot of reading. That’s not to say it was bad or anything, for me it was just okay; nothing special. I just prefer shorter books. And ones with less description. (I’m probably the ...
