Black Spells and Twisted Souls: An Urban Fantasy Reverse Harem Romance (Grey Witch Book 1)

An exciting read!
I didn't remember much about this book, so I decided to give it a re-read and OMG, it's so good! I don't even know how I forgot about it in the first place!Saying that Kayla is un unlucky witch is the understatement of the century. She's plagued by bad luck and when her boss dies, everything points to her as the murdered. Now she has to deal with a shifter ex who still wants her, a fae who doesn't understand the term "personal boundaries", a vampire detective trying to solve her boss murder and who seems to stalk her, and a moody demon whom Kayla doesn't know if she could trust. She's in for a wild ride!

An exciting new read which I enjoyed
Oooo, I really love this authors works. I think she writes really well and creates stories that just pull me in. She is all about the slow burn romance and those are my favourite kind of romances. Black Spells and Twisted Souls has a witch as it's main character, however there are all sorts of paranormals in this book living in the real world but humans are not aware of them. Kayla, our main character is working in a mundane job with a boss who really shouldn't be a manager! Kayla gets accused of murder and what follows is a humorous and exciting adventure to uncover the truth. Kayla meets some interesting characters along the way and we find out some of the history she has with characters she already knows. There is also a cross over with a few characters from one of the authors other books, Vengeance (a series I really hope she'll carry on) and I liked the way that was added in. As I've mentioned, this is a slow burn romance and a few potential characters are introduced who could possibly be in Kayla' s harem. I'm hoping they'll all be, particularly the demon but the author is not giving anything away. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in this series as I really enjoyed book one.

Loved it
I really love urban paranormal fiction! It's even better that this book is set in London and oh so very British. I love the main character and the secondaries. I'm hoping we see more of Solas in the next book! This must be slow burn because I don't see much of the to dance aspect apart from with the obvious so looking forward to that ramping up in the next!

problematic h made this seem very YA
Kayla, the main character was too under developed. And what was there struck me as too naive and extremely foolish. Bad decision after bad decision leads this white witch down a slippery slope to the grey. But she took these steps rather blithely and never really owned them. Same with the multiple men, who are all gorgeous, and can't be flirting with her average self yet she finds herself in constant Flirty situations and either flirts back, insisting it means nothing, or is determined to remain wide eyed oblivious. Annoying. And the constant tramping all over town, achieving very little in proving her innocence was just annoying and exhausting. Worst of all, the murder mystery isn't solved in this book, and another big cliffhanger is added. I found this read strangely boring, I just wanted more ownership of her actions by the h and more tension plotwise, rather than the h stumbling about making ridiculous and foolish decisions that she couldn't possibly believe would turn out well. Girl, grow up.
