"Don't shoot me by accident, please."

Em looked down and smiled, still gorgeous despite the icicles building up in her hair…

"I promise," she said softly, biting her lip. "I will never shoot you by accident."

I considered her response.

"That's less comforting than you'd think."

Title: Devil's Game
Series: Reapers MC #3
Author: Joanna Wylde
Contemporary Romance/Erotica
Published June 3rd 2014 by Berkley

Liam “Hunter” Blake hates the Reapers MC. Born and raised a Devil’s Jack, he knows his duty. He’ll defend his club from their oldest enemies—the Reapers—using whatever weapons he can find. But why use force when the Reapers’ president has a daughter who’s alone and vulnerable? Hunter has wanted her from the minute he saw her, and now he has an excuse to take her.

Em has lived her entire life in the shadow of the Reapers. Her overprotective father, Picnic, is the club’s president. The last time she had a boyfriend, Picnic shot him. Now the men in her life are far more interested in keeping her daddy happy than showing her a good time. Then she meets a handsome stranger—a man who isn't afraid to treat her like a real woman. One who isn't afraid of her father. His name is Liam, and he’s The One.

Or so she thinks.

My Thoughts
Just to make it clear, Liam is NOT anyone's knight in shining armor. In fact, through at least half of the book he's a pretty big jerk, and Em really should have just shot him when she had the chance...But, he's one of those guys that you love even though you hate him. Sigh...life can be so complicated.

One Less Warlock by Judith Post

One Less Warlock by Judith Post My rating: 4 of 5 stars I think it's hard in a short story to create a unique setting, characters, etc., and still get some sort of story line in. In One Less Warlock, Judith did an excellent job of molding the story in such a way that we got a taste of a distinct world and character personalities, and a complete story to go with it. In this short story Judith was able to pack in witches, vampires, a sexy Were, succubus, voodoo, murder, and mystery, all in only about 20 pages. Pretty amazing. I enjoyed the story and Babet, the main character, and am looking forward to more of her in the future. View all my reviews
