Undercover Elementals #3
The Mortal Tempest
The earth moves, time shifts, and it's up to one mortal to save two worlds — or die trying.
The day Lindsey Porter married her soul mate, the sylph king Nevan, should've been the best day of their lives. But nothing ever goes as planned for the Janusite, the one mortal gifted with the powers of the Roman god Janus. An earthquake splits the ground open, heralding the arrival of an uninvited guest. Janus has returned from his millennia-long imprisonment — and he wants his powers back. Things can't get any worse, right?
Until time itself shifts…
The worlds realign. Reality changes. And Lindsey discovers only she, her familiar Max, and the powerless god Janus remember what came before the time shift. Even Nevan has no memory of Lindsey.
As she and her allies struggle to defeat an enemy with a mysterious vendetta against the Janusite, the worlds shift again…and again. Amid the chaos, Lindsey must choose between saving the ones she loves and preventing an apocalypse. But will the magic of the Janusite be enough to stop a time-traveling villain who seems to always walk two steps ahead?
The Mortal Tempest concludes the Janusite trilogy, but the Undercover Elementals series will continue with fresh stories and characters.

Lindsey and Nevan’s wedding day did not go smoothly. Lindsey had been having particularly bad nightmares the few nights prior, but she hopes it is just jitters. Then on the day itself, as they're saying their vows, the Earth literally opens up at her feet. Janus has arrived and wants his powers back.
Oh, my! The twists and turns in this installment of the series keep Lindsey guessing as well as the reader. Time shifts. Pasts are forgotten; Nevan himself is affected. The author does an excellent job of showing us these wildly dramatic shifts through Lindsey's eyes. We can sense her frustration, fears, and sadness and appreciate her doggedness to get through it all. The author has a natural writing style that pulls you right in, even though the book is about such fantastic events. She makes them feel like they could actually happen and do happen to the characters.
If you enjoyed the previous book of the series, you would most likely enjoy this next set of adventures for Lindsey, Nevan and the crew. I definitely think the first two books need to be read first in order to fully appreciate the characters and the dramatic arcs that they have already been through as they set up what happens in this book.

★ Taming time itself ★
—>>> This was an action-packed, very creatively detailed adventure featuring a force-of-a-freight-train-kinda prophecy, powers, time streams, elementals, gods, and it all happens when Lindsey goes to get married to Nevan, the King of the Sylphs. No problem, it takes a while for her, but this fast-paced storyline will throw you right on the shifting time continuum while you get to sift through all the happenings in both past and present and everything relevant in between, as Lindsey fights for her one true love, her life and those she loves all around her, as well as two separate worlds which were never supposed to connect.
Amazing read of a world I want to delve into more in the future!

This is book 3 to the Undercover Elementals and I absolutely loved it like I have with the other two books to this series. Lindsey is ready to get married to Nevan but on their wedding day the ground starts to shake it opens up and an uninvited guest comes to the party Janus has returned and he wants his powers back. Time shifts and everyone forgets only Lindsey and her familiar Max remember everything even her husband to be Nevan doesn’t remember her. Amazing story with action, adventure, danger, twists and turns, steamy scenes and so much more to keep you entertained and turning the pages and I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.

I’m not sure you’ll really get the full effect if you don’t read these in order. While it could stand alone, these characters have already been through so much. In this book, the obstacles mount, nothing goes as planned and they’ll have to triumph over insurmountable odds. Great characters, fast paced action. Read them from the beginning. Great story. This one will keep you jumping. As soon as you think you know what’s going to happen, there will be another twist. (I voluntarily reviewed an ARC).

The conclusion of Lindsey and Nevan's story begins on a happy note with the wedding of the Janusite and her sylph king. But fate has other plans as a powerful enemy wreaks havoc and radically changes the outcome of the present, and sends Lindsey back in time, several times, to fix the problem. Especially when it affects Nevan. An intriguing and exciting storyline and a perfect ending to all that has happened. Very nice!

The third book in the Undercover Elementals series this is a series that once it is finished I want to read again. Well written a book that kept me turning pages. Lindsey and sylph king Nevan's story has drama, suspense, danger, twists, turns, a evil harpy, believing, and romance. I enjoyed reading this book. I would like it if Max got his own story.

This is the love story of Nevan and Lindsey and how they are forced to fight an evil Harpy to save both their worlds. Not only will they have to travel across time and the very boundaries of death itself to be together. But will have to use all their magical abilities and call on many of their magical friends to help them fight the great evil that has attacked their lands.

This is the 2nd book I've read written by Anna Durand; she has done a great job at writing a good book; I will definitely be reading more of her books.
The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.
I loved the chemistry between the characters.

The Mortal Tempest

As the third book in the Undercover Elements series, this is an action packed, adventure filled story! There are elementals, gods, time streams, and lots of twists.
You do not need to read the first two books to enjoy this one, but please do.
This book (and the rest of the series) is highly recommended.

I really enjoyed this book, it has such a great storyline, but in my opinion, you really have to read these books in order or you will not get as much from them. In this one Lizzy has to go on a quest to save her husband Nevan and the world and overcome her own self-doubt. In the end, evil is defeated and they achieve their happy ever after.

Tempest is a pretty tame word for what Lindsey has to face this time. Her destiny has arrived, and her team of allies can only help her so much. I was so pulled into this story that I listened to the whole audiobook in one day. A great way to end this series
