Juliette Harper is the pen name used by the writing team of Patricia Pauletti and Rana K. Williamson. As a writer, Juliette's goal is to create strong female characters facing interesting, challenging, painful, and at times comical situations. Refusing to be bound by genre, her primary interest lies in telling good stories.
Jinx Hamilton is a witch by birth and heritage and realizes throughout the series and growing up with her family and magical community, family is everything. She inherited her shop from her beloved aunt and found her true home there. Tori her bestie and also magical alchemist counterpart, now lives and works with her at the store and feels the same way - family is everything. They are seriously southern girls yall, think Julia Sugarbaker without the refinement but with the hilarity.
So when their mommas and their world is threatened, jinx and Tori thrown down with their magical community to take out the baddies. Time to take out the evil doers and bury the bodies - and these gals WILL have their own shovels if needed.
Love their support pals, particular colonel Beauregard and Duke, the cemetery friends who are a hoot, Darby, the hilarious Festus and so many other standout characters that make this series unique and remarkable, and an absolutely worthwhile read
I’ve really been liking this series. Very light, but fun.
This one was good, but I thought the ending was the best part. And I genuinely liked Anton Ionescu, he was just a grieving father who made some bad choices from suffering such immense grief. Very sad man. The author did a good job with the Strigoi sisters, she did a good job describing them being vampires, even creepy in some parts. I really liked this, it may even be my favorite one in the series so far. I knocked off a star again though because of Jinx. I’m so torn between liking and disliking her. Also, Jinx and Tori are supposed to be 29 years old and sometimes in the book they are treated like they’re still teenagers. I mean I get it, parents are parents and in some cases they will always look at their kids as their “babies”, that’s how it is in my case anyway. But you kind of get it from all sides sometimes. Anyway, 4 stars for me! It was definitely still a positive reading. I literally feel like I’m watching a charmed episode sometimes. lol.
Once again, Juliette Harper brings a supernatural story from deceptively quiet beginning to spine chilling climax. Masterfully written and good reading.
