Fruition

by Megan McCall

Natalie Johnston always felt out of place in the world. Being different never seemed to throw things out of symmetry until a reoccurring nightmare of burning at the stake has her feeling unsettled. Just when fear and uncertainty begin to take their toll, she meets Xavier; a mysterious and handsome stranger who recognizes an heirloom pendant she’s worn since childhood. His touch releases memories it possesses of a witch from another time whom he claims to be his deceased wife.


Next thing Natalie knows, demons from Xavier’s world are lurking around every corner to kill her. Placing her under his protection, he insists she can help bring his wife back. Pleading with her to try, he promises the hunting will stop if she succeeds. When her many attempts fail, her life begins to crumble as strange new instincts bring out a darker side, and she realizes the memories come from someone she knows to be a blood thirsty version of herself.

About the author

What's there to really say about me? I was born and raised in Utah, I'm the youngest of sixteen children (my parents have a yours, mine, and ours deal). Growing up in a crazy full house, my imagination was all I had when I wanted to escape. I was always writing stories and most of them I never really finished, but all the same, I enjoyed it. I became a single mother of twin girls at a young age, and I totally rock at it. These days I'm working as a massage therapist and writing in my off time, which is usually at night; all hours of it. My life's not perfect and I don't have any special awards to brag about, but I'm happy. My tragic flaws are spending too much time in my head and eating food.

[PelicanFreak · Rating 4 out of 5]

Almost immediately after starting this book we are introduced to an intriguing mystery, a pair of lovable characters and shortly thereafter, what can only be either budding romance or another mystery. This book is overall well-written although the banter between the 21 year olds struck me as not how average college girls would speak to one another. Once I got used to that, it just became who they are and it worked for them. As it goes on we get to know the atmosphere and characters a bit more and are later treated to some action ... this book has bits of multiple genres. Fair warning: it may leave you wanting more in the end.
