Magic #4
Wild Magic
What if you could cast a spell to help you do your everyday job? But . . . what if that job included casting fireballs and lightning bolts and destroying evil magic items? And your soul mate turns out to be a “wild talent” with abilities neither of you dreamed of? And you’re up against the immensely horrible Cataclysm Stone?
Within the world of magic practitioners exist a group called Defenders and Swords. Their purpose: to find and destroy items of evil magic.
Irenee Sabel is a Sword, new to her blade and anxious to prove herself. On her first mission to recover a powerful crystal of ancient evil--The Cataclysm Stone--from its practitioner users, she encounters DEA Agent Jim Tylan. Part of a law-enforcement task force but also for personal reasons, Jim is after the same people for drugs and weapons trafficking.
When Jim and Irenee come together, they find that each is more than appears on the surface. Irenee is surprised to discover that Jim is a “wild talent,” in whom magic abilities spontaneously occur. Jim is astonished to realize that he can cast spells and Irenee and her team can actually destroy evil magic items.
The biggest revelation of all concerns both Jim and Irenee. They are, in fact, ready or not, soul mates, and the soul-mate imperative is lurking, determined to bring them together.
The villains have other plans for them, ones that will test Irenee and Jim’s new found magic powers--and their new found love.

About the author
Ann Macela
10 books10 followersI have been blessed with a number of careers: public school and university teacher (three degrees in history); writer of history (the kind bristling with footnotes); sales, marketing and PR person writing everything from ads to annual reports; consultant and computer manual writer; and now romance author. A native Texan, I spent most of my life on the Gulf Coast until my husband’s and my business took us first to Minneapolis and then to the Chicago area. It didn’t take me long to learn how to survive in The Frozen North--just wear my entire wardrobe at one time. All of this, some travels here and abroad, and my computer-and-accounting savvy husband have given me inspiration and details for my stories.
In Chicagoland, I finally had the time to do what I have always wanted to: write fiction. I write both contemporary and contemporary paranormal stories. I hope my readers enjoy my magic practitioners. We all need a little magic in our lives.

Interesting story of magic and how a family choose to use it for evil things with the "protectors & defenders" trying to catch & stop them. Also a bit of mystery involved.

This book was much better than the first 3. There was actual magic, and more of a story than the first 3 books. It was still kind of sappy and fantastical. I cannot recommend this series, but if you read the first books then this should not put you off.
3.5 Stars.

I really enjoyed the love story and would like to read more in this series. Kind of like a magic (witch/practitioner slash crime frighter) dark hunter or similar series.
