Xandra and Kallen never thought they'd be on the wrong side of the Council's wrath. But they'll do whatever it takes to keep the body of ancient beings from taking what they cherish most. Even if that means manipulating time.
2. My children. (Please don’t tell my kids I listed fans before them. You may cause a riot in my home. They’re pretty feisty kids.)
3. My cats and dogs when they’re not making me sniffle, sneeze, rub my eyes or irritating my asthma. (Scratch that, they always do and I love them anyway.)
4. Writing. (I would have listed this first, but it would have looked bad. Worse than putting fans before my kids.)
5. Good friends. (Fortunately, I have several.)
6. Quiet evenings at home in front of the fireplace reading a good book. (Please, like that’s going to happen with five kids in the house - but I can dream can’t I?)
7. I got stuck here so I asked a couple of friends to tell me their fondest memory of me. This is what I got:
Deb: It was when you used to babysit Michael and rode the horse in Meijer so he could ride with you. Also......my first trip to TX for a wedding. You were at my house and said you would put my clothes in the dryer when they were done. Needless to say, the next morning I had to pack wet clothes in my suitcase. The airline lost my luggage for 4 days so when I finally got it back, my clothes were all mildewed. (Okay, in my defense – I was twelve at the time. The sad thing is, I still forget to put clothes in the dryer.)
Michele: I have too many…but one of the first that popped in my head was how you drove all the way to Chicago to look at my apartment for me because I was too hung over, and then gave me all the details so I could pretend I was there. You are a good friend... (It was only a seven hour round trip. What are friends for?)
Joe: A particular Domino’s pizza delivery and you invited the delivery guy inside…(I’m going to stop there because my ex-husband thinks he’s funny.)
For obvious reasons, I didn’t ask anyone else.
Hates:
1. Puppies, kittens, babies, sunshine, peace on earth, goodwill, recycling, education, gifts, and sweets of any kind. (Really, I do.)
2. Being facetious. (I would never dream of it!)
3. People who don’t read my books. (Well, maybe not all of them. But, most of them.)
4. People who always manage to stop by the house when I look terrible. (You know who you are…)
5. Lumberjacks. (Don’t know why, just do.)
Now that you know everything about me, you should drop by my Facebook page to tell me all about you.
I have read all of the Witch Fairy books, and LOVE them. We have waited a long time to go back to Xandra and Kallen, and wow it was so worth the eaot. Bonnie Lamer never disappoints and as always, I've read this book so quickly and and now left needing more. I cannot recommend people to read this series enough!!!
I have missed you Bonnie. I have missed you Xandra. I definitely have missed you Kallen.
First, I am so sorry you lost you mother Bonnie. I can't imagine how heartbreaking that would have been. May her soul rest in peace and I pray for your family.
Now, this is by far, hands down, the best book in the entire series. I have read every single one of them and loved every single one of them but this stole my heart in its first 5 pages and refused to give it back until the very end. Suffice to stay, I pulled a sort of all-nighter to finish it and I am so happy I did. Bonnie your writing was so good that I could not help but keep turning those pages.
Xandra is, as always, such a charmer. ;) And to have 'more of Xandra' in this book is absolutely a treat. I can definitely tell you I did not expect this book to go this way after the ending of the previous but boy, does our author know how to surprise us. Kallen is my favourite character other than Tabitha (cause duh!) because he knows how to support his wife the best. The dynamic between Xandra and Kallen is seriously couple goals. (Bet Xandra would like to hear that). The kids that these two have... Lordy! I would love to read more about the becoming family. Like absolutely donate my kidney love.
More than anything, this part was just MORE. More emotional, more grand and more other-worldly. And I devoured it like my nutella jar.
Thank you for introducing me to this couple and world Bonnie. I am, as always, your first and one of the biggest fans. Hope to see more of you in the future.
As you would expect from this series, a liberal dose of soppiness but heart warming. The plots are excellent with an even better bunch of characters and with Xander leading the cast it all seems to gel.
I absolutely loved this book. I liked the visitors from the future and how they helped with Xandra and the family’s current situation. I cried in some parts and laughed in other parts.
