Still reeling with grief after the murder of her sister
Angela by a demon, water witch Isabelle Novak goes after
the man she holds responsible. Although Stefan Faucheux
didn't personally murder Angela, it was his organization
that originally raised the demon who did.
After carefully baiting and springing her trap, Isabelle
finally has Stefan where she wants him only to have him
snatched away, his miserable life saved by "the good guys"
of the Coven. The "rescue" squad, headed by Thomas Monahan,
a powerful earth witch and head of the Coven, takes Stefan
to an underground Coven prison where his magic will be
blocked.
The Coven needs Stefan alive to help them track the demon,
Boyle, who's recently begun killing witches. Thomas is
convinced that Boyle's killings aren't random, that there's
a pattern to the brutal deaths, and they need Stefan to
help figure it out. Isabelle agrees to be part of the squad
tracking Boyle and the team gets down to business. They
locate Boyle, only to be on the hurting end of a severe
demon smack down. Desperate to send Boyle back to his demon
dimension, the witches regroup and rework their strategies.
They need to learn a whole lot more about what can hurt a
demon before they go on the offensive again. In the
meantime, Boyle, who also wants to get back to his demon
dimension, has an endgame that involves removing the
entrails of a certain water witch, and as far as he's
concerned, Isabelle will do just fine.
The lusty Elemental Witches are back for a second time in
WITCH BLOOD by Anya Bast. While Isabelle leads with
her emotions, Thomas tries to keep a level head, most of
the time, to no avail. Earth and water witches are
naturally attracted and these two can't keep their hands
off each other. Although I figured out what the demon
wanted, without Stefan's help, before the team did, it was
still fun watching them get there.
Water witch Isabelle Novak must form an uneasy alliance
with
earthwitch Thomas Monahan to hunt and destroy a demon of
tremendous
power,even though Thomas's very presence stirs deeper
desires than she
everknew she had.
