"Wraiths Raine, Gavin, and Xander fight an invisible enemy as they search Cheveyo, head of Magi"

Fresh Fiction Review

Shadow's Soul

Reviewed by Cheryl Beal

Fantasy Urban | Romance Paranormal

Raine McCord is a wraith. She is one of 12 enforcers sent to keep magical beings in line. There are four houses of magic -- Fey, Shifters, Magi, and Amanusa -- known as the Kyn. Raine is Fey with mixed blood; but as a teenager, she was held captive by scientists and the experiments have forever changed Raine's magic. Raine has been sent to New Mexico on assignment to act as bodyguard to Cheveyo, the head of the Northwest Magi house. While in New Mexico, things go terribly wrong and Raine faces some very strange and frightening situations. Fellow wraiths Gavin and Xander join her in New Mexico to help her as she searches for Cheveyo and fights a terrifying enemy. SHADOW'S SOUL is the second book in the Kyn Kronicles. Jami Gray has done an outstanding job with this book. I really enjoyed Shadow's Edge, the first book in this series; but SHADOW'S SOUL is even better! Gavin and Raine make a lot of progress in their personal relationship during this book -- they finally have sex!! Plus Gavin helps Raine face the changes in her magic that the experiments have caused. It's wonderful to see Raine less conflicted and more comfortable in all aspects of her life. I can't recommend this book enough. I'm looking forward to more books in this series.

SUMMARY

All she had to do was keep one man safe… Raine McCord has no problem taking down the monsters of the world, it’s one of the reasons she’s so good at her job. So playing bodyguard to Cheveyo, head Magi of the Northwest, as he consults with the Southwest Kyn should be an easy assignment. Unfortunately, the simple task turns into a nightmare when Cheveyo is kidnapped and Raine is left for dead by one of the Kyn’s most feared beings, a Soul Stealer. The Stealer’s attack leaves lasting wounds, undermining Raine’s confidence as a warrior and damaging her unruly magic. Her ability to heal her mind and spirit hinges on the one man who can touch her soul, Gavin Durand. Compelled to face the emotions raging between them, they must embrace not only their stormy relationship but their evolving magic to escape the twisted threads of murder and betrayal to find Cheveyo. As Raine and Gavin come together and begin to unravel the complex web of secrets and hidden vendettas haunting the Southwest Kyn, they discover unsettling new truths that threaten their very existence.
