NCIS meets Supernatural in this amazing PNR crime adventure.



What is there not to love about Savannah?. Smart, sassy and independent, this witch proves her worth in a field which barely tolerates her abilities and presence. Her investigation into a mysterious and gruesome death reunites her with an old partner, Damian, a love foresaken but not forgoten.

The story has a great pace and does not let up as the story twists and turns, challenging Savannah in every way imaginable. Hot romance, thrilling suspence and compelling intrigue this amidsts a world setting that cleverly infuses paranormal races within modern human civilization.
I have found a new author to follow, and can not rave about this book enough. Love the characters, the story, the setting- and need its sequel,now!. This book book contains everything wanted and needed in a great story!

I absolutely love this book! From the moment that I started reading this book I fell in love with the main characters. I seriously couldn’t put it down. Her writing style reminds me of a cross between Jeanine Frost and Karen Marie Moning. There are highs, lows and very exiting scenes in this book. I now want a Santiago of my own. I love her writing style and her sense of humor. I will definitely be looking forward to the next book!!

I really enjoyed Bad Witch Walking and a little surprised since it's not my usual go to genre, but this story grabbed hold and had me on the edge of my seat!! The characters were really interesting and I want to learn more about them, so of course this won't be my last read, can't wait for next book!!

Who doesn’t love a good mystery? This book was a great read! Loved the characters (cough,cough,Damian) and the plot was fantastic! You truly weren’t sure who to love,hate or trust! It was action packed and a little steamy. Cannot wait for the next book!

I truly enjoyed this book.... so well written... it piqued my interest and kept me there. Savannah was a feisty Hellborn.. and witch with a cause... She took her job seriously and screw anyone that got in her way. She was just completing a job when a brutal murder was dropped into her lap.... since she was a hunter/investigator with the local police, she had her own set of rules... and since she was a hellborn, she could get to places and information that the human police force could not. My problem was... should she rekindle her past romance with Damien ooor ignite a new one with Santiago! I have to say... I was glad at the turnout... can't wait to read the next.

Spellbounding Paranormal Crime Thriller!


Savannah Woods works for the Hellborne Crime Unit. A red-headed fireball is a rebel against her parent's raising as a child. As the first murder occurs, she tries to solve the mystery of a killer's chilling factors on the loose. Were the murders caused by females looking for a taste of the wild?
A book-burning story that keeps you turning the pages to figure out who the killer was yourself. Can she crack the case, or does she need to go to lieutenant Ryan the leader of her unit, to figure out how this sociopath has broken the rules of society?

This book fascinated me!

I honestly had never read anything like this. The book was easy to follow, held my interest from the start and kept it. I liked how the supernatural met the normal life. I look forward to reading the next books in this series. This is my first time reading this author!!

This is a great paranormal mystery book with just the right amount of romance. The crime scenes are so well done and wonderfully graphic that I could picture myself right there as if I were watching a movie. The heroine is sassy, intelligent, and independent. If you're a grown woman who wants a fierce heroine who fights her own battles, this one is for you!

She’s a Huntress of lawless hellborns. She’s a Hellborn herself but on the right side of the law. She walks to her own beat to solve the cases she’s assigned. Things were routine until a human woman is brutally murdered and the case became hers. Savannah works through trying to solve the potentially dynamite case when a hellborn has nefarious plans of its own to bring down the Black Grove Vampire Clan. Tensions run high within the city as things start to escalate. Will she be able to solve the case in time before all Hell breaks lose and war breaks out in her city or will it be to late..

I really enjoyed this read. Sammantha has an amazing imagination. This story has twists and turns and never expect the unexpected... It’s a page turner for sure. Cheers Libby_J 🌷
