Ruby drove her lover away via her magic for undisclosed
reasons and is shocked to see him walking toward her in the
beginning of the book. However, Derek doesn't come without a
request. He needs Ruby to teach a local coven how to drive
demons away from an energy fault line that has begun to
crack open; the demons cannot slip through or they all will
face the consequences. Ruby is naturally worried, but not
for the reasons everyone believes. A darkness has been
seeping into her and she is struggling between the light and
dark.
Ruby's character is enviable. She is strong where others are
weak and willing to defend those others where they would
leave her. She displays intelligence and courage in large
amounts throughout the story. Derek's character is also
well-developed and the reader will be able to see just what
it was about him that drew Ruby to him so long ago. Derek is
also very persistent, he intends to discover the real reason
Ruby drove him away and possibly rectify the situation.
Joey W. Hill does a great job with this new series. The plot
is fast-paced and will keep the reader entertained
throughout the story. Ruby and Derek have a strong
connection that the author develops further and will make
the reader believe in their love. The love scenes can be
explicit and are actually believable. SOMETHING ABOUT
WITCHES is an exciting start to a new series.
Powerful sorcerer Derek Stormwind is determined to learn why
the witch Ruby Night Devine pushed him away three years
before. But he also needs her help in training a coven to
fight a demon and his minions. While Ruby is willing to do
it, she's sure it's just a ruse to get back in her heart-and
her bed. Unfortunately, her bed's already made, and she
fears nothing can save her soul...
