The only question remaining…Who will stand by her side at the end?
A mysterious stranger, a tragic past, and magic, what more can you ask for? This story is an engaging debut to this new author and series. This book is just the right amount of steamy, but not at the expense of plot. It's a fun read for anyone who enjoys urban fantasy settings with a little dark magic twist. It leaves off on just the right amount of a cliffhanger that I'm interested but not mad.
I had to stop at 32% into this boring novel, as there wasn't a single thing in it about tarot. A book with tarot in the title shouldn't have to be read almost until the halfway point before it even enters the story.
Spells of Tarot & Tragedy is a captivating read. This urban fantasy depicts love and betrayal and discovering the things and people that really matter. With twists and turns to keep you guessing about what comes next, you will be surprised by where this book takes you.
I can't wait to read the next installment to see what happens!!
