In book three of the Nememiah Chronicles series, Charlotte Duncan begins to master her gifts - but when she confronts her nemesis, will she be strong enough to face him? After managing to rescue her friends, Charlotte finds herself in love with two very different men - vampire Lucas Tine and werewolf Conal Tremaine. As she struggles with her emotions, a dangerous group of supernaturals reveal sinister plans - leaving Charlotte no time to deal with the repercussions of her choices. An engaging paranormal romance, Knowledge Hurts follows Charlotte's attempts to prevent the Drâghici Consiliului from achieving their goal of control over all supernatural creatures. Pursued as the object of half-angel half-vampire Archangelo's obsession, Charlotte must face deadly enemies - but will she manage to save the people she loves? This is the large print edition of Knowledge Hurts, with a larger font / typeface for easier reading.

I'm a lover of the written word and imaginary worlds and have been from a very young age.

My first forays into writing were stories I wrote to amuse myself - since then I like to think my writing has matured - perhaps more than I have!

Reading is a passion, although I suspect I have far more books than I'll ever have time to read and collecting new books is a pleasant addiction and a fabulous time waster.

Writing is a joyful undertaking conducted with copious amounts of journals, planners and more pens than I'm willing to admit I've bought over the years. Suffice to say I own a multitude of shelves and pencil cases to store it all.

I adore pandas and penguins, elephants and manatees and fluffy butts of all varieties.

Life is taken up with the aforementioned occupations, plus life with the Darling Husband and our four adult children.

Filling up the last of my spare time are the two furry children; Mollie, a rescue Cane Corso/Mastiff and Stanley, the hyperactive American Staffy/Possible Catahoula.

And just in case there are a couple of minutes left over, the Darling Husband and I are planning to build our own house in the hills outside Perth, Western Australia during 2025/2026!

Escaping from the Consiliului Suprem de Drâghici Vampiri was not easy. Injuries to the Tines were horrendous. Charlotte had another problem where it came to loving 2 men and deciding which one to be with…Lucas or Conal! At the end she really only had one choice. Time heals all but another attack was imminent. Charlottes sleep yields a lot of information but does not help her get any rest.
At last, Charlotte found a place to keep them safe but how long will this last, only time will tell. So many decisions to make for one so young, each one a mystery that has to be unravelled to get the answer. Charlotte’s belief in having to put up with the dreams and nightmares so they are warned on what will happen next is a testament to her strength of character. When they brought her dad in to save Charlottes life it was not something she expected when she woke up from Archangelo’s attack. What do you say to a man who abandoned you as a 2 year old? Plenty if Charlotte has he way. Will the fighting ever stop? There had to be a way of killing the demons and younglings faster than they were. Running after Archangelo in the hope of stopping all the fighting was the only solution that Charlotte could see. Then the worst possible thing happened, could Charlotte survive their deaths?
You will have to read The Nememiah Chronicles - Knowledge of Love Book 4 to see who dies and who survives.

Just as book one and two didn't disappoint, neither did book three. It was just as imaginative and adventurous, it kept me hooked from beginning to end, when it finished in classic Hichcock fashion. This whole series was very affordable for me and as I read voraciously it was well worth the money I spent buying the series. Enjoy the book, don't forget about book four.

This book series started out a lot like Twilight but I wanted to give it a chance and I am glad that I did. I’m excited to read book 4.

The Nememiah Chronicles – Knowledge Hurts by D. S. Williams is the third book in the series. Because the story picks up at the end of book two, I recommend reading the books in order.

D. S. Williams keeps us on the edge of our seats as we follow Charlotte Duncan’s adventures. As her battle skills develop, she confronts her nemesis, Archangelo, who is also a Mememiah’s child. There can only be one survivor, but which will it be? Many new characters are introduced and the storyline gets more complex as Charlotte battles for her life and to save the people she loves.

The story ends at a vicious battle, and the two people Charlotte loves most are dead or dying. How will she go on?
D. S. Williams is a great storyteller. I've read the first three books in a little over a week and rushed to purchase the fourth. I just had to know how things turned out.

This book seriously ups the stakes in this series. If you thought you were in for a rehash of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series, think again. Ms Williams takes you into a true war between supernatural races, with displaced peoples, refugees, genocide and racism all forming part of the plot of this one. Not to mention family and love and relationships, decisions Charlotte must make at the tender age of 21 as she's forced to assume leadership of an entire people.

And the ending...oh, my. No, I don't give spoilers, but I admit I had no idea where this book would end and when it did...well, I need to read the next one, don't I? As do you, because I won't tell you what happens.
