Bewitching Blurbs



Bewitching Blurbs

Hi everyone,

Here’s this week’s Bewitching Blurbs. As always, there are some fantastic titles to choose from.

If you have a new release, feel free to add the title, buy link, website and blurb to the comment section.

Please just remember to keep it PG and it’s a blurb not an extract – thanks.

First we have a little shifter action. A Wolf at Her Door is another story in the Spellbound Treasure Series. It’s an interesting series, which is written by several different authors. They are stand alone, magical stories which are vaguely linked by certain characters. They are published by Jupiter Gardens Press and here’s a link to all the titles -

This is Jasmine’s fourth title in the series. Her other stories include Birthday Shift, Lupine Valentine and Outfoxed.

A Wolf at Her Door

By Jasmine Aherne

When Gwen wished for a hero to help save her sanctuary, she never expected tough, sexy stranger Rohan to show up at her door. Rohan is a natural with animals, and even helps to protect her home from vandals who would destroy what she’s worked for.

But this man hides secrets that she senses she’ll find in the golden eyes of the wolf she keeps dreaming of. Can Gwen entrust Rohan with saving the lives of the animals she loves, and even more dangerously, can she entrust him with her heart?



Rebekah Turner’s Chaos Bound has arrived. It’s the second instalment of the story which started in Chaos Born. I’ve added both blurbs so you can get the full impact...

Chaos Bound

By Rebekah Turner

The long-awaited sequel to Chaos Born takes us back into the Applecross, where Lora faces increasing threats to her survival and her chance at love.

Lora Blackgoat — mercenary and smuggler — has only just recovered from the last threat on her life and hasn’t even begun to sort out the mess of having both a nephilim warrior and a reborn hellspawn as potential lovers. Work should be a refuge, but a job finding missing persons puts her in the crosshairs of a violent gang and a merchant with a taste for blood sport.

Reluctantly, Lora turns to the two men in her life for help. Roman — the nephilim — professes to be her soul mate and turns to her when he feels the darkness of nephilim madness descending. But though Lora is drawn to Roman, it is Seth, ex-lover and reborn hellspawn, who Lora must ultimately ask to protect those she loves. Can she trust Seth to save Roman and her adoptive family, or will this be a fatal mistake?


Chaos Born (Book 1)

A fresh and exciting debut novel introducing the Chronicles from the Applecross.

Lora Blackgoat, smuggler and mercenary, has been lying low after a job gone bad made her a laughing stock in the industry. When a childhood friend turns to her for help, Lora leaps to restore her reputation and starts hunting a killer who is stalking the gas-lit streets.

She never expects that her path will lead her to the Order of Guides, a sadistic militant religious organisation - or to Roman, a deadly and dangerously attractive half-angel warrior who also hunts the killer.

When Lora discovers that the killer has broken fundamental laws of magic to enter the city, she also uncovers a conspiracy that leads back into her own dark past.


Here are some lovely contemporary romances –
The first is an Australian rural romance from Kate Loveday.

Buckle Down is an anthology which features Samantha Holt’s first contemporary story, Her Dream Cowboy.  Normally, Samantha writes scintillating medieval Scottish romance, but I’m willing to swap a highland laird for a hot cowboy just this once J

The ever fabulous Annie Seaton’s Tangling with the CEO (a Half Moon Bay Novel) was released yesterday.
Tangling with the CEO
By Annie Seaton
Mixing business with pleasure never felt so right.
Blake Buchanan and Anastasia Delaney were roommates in college and could never see eye to eye about anything. The only time their walls came down was during one night of passion before Ana left without a word, never expecting to cross paths with Blake again.
Years later, Blake has made his millions. He comes back to Ana’s small California town to manage a corporate takeover that will close down the home restoration business she’s poured her heart and soul into. The fiery Ana is determined to convince money-minded Blake of her business’s worth, but when a family emergency throws them together, their walls come tumbling down once again…
Problem is, Blake’s business-first position hasn’t changed. And Ana can’t fall for the man who could become her boss—it’s not only her job at stake, but her heart.
