And I think that was a great way to get this going.

I did kind of figure out who the person doing all this was as soon as I heard a hint about someone in the past, or Angelique's past I should say. I love when Emma makes a joke, Brendan says something about getting a milkshake because she puts so much milk and sugar in her cappuccino, and Emma says "You're a milkshake!" That is so the kind of thing I say all the time when I'm wanting to say something back to someone who has said something like that to me. I love the dynamic between Brendan and Emma. This something from the past is something that wants to use their blood, with the true love, to make itself powerful and invincible, if the stories in the books her friend Angelique has are true.Īgain I call to mind my connections with Twilight and my love of that book.

But of course, the fact that Emma is a witch, and that Brendan used to be quite the player, that does have to come back around and mess up their happiness. Now, Emma and Brendan are "happily ever after". And that carries through to Spellcaster, only the curse has been broken as we saw in the first book. Some of what I really loved about the first book was the whole cursed love thing. Well, you can guess just how pleased I was when I met the author herself this past November, and got to read the prologue to the new book, and found out I was getting to go back into Emma and Brendan's world! And I was not disappointed by the sequel at all! And that the bonus material at the end said there was going to be a book from Angelique's point of view next, and I decided I'd have to just settle for that. It's so funny that one of the things I said after I finished reading the first one, was how much I wanted back into that world. So, I went back and re-read my review of Spellbound. So glad that whole bit is over, I love Harlequin Teen, and hope they will always grant me access to their egalleys. Although I got denied the first time I requested it.

I got to read the first book, Spellbound, this same way. I was lucky enough to get this as an egalley from Harlequin Teen through Netgalley.
