Now Missy must find a way to not only get them out alive, but to save the mind of the man who is quickly capturing her heart. And she must do it all without getting caught.

4 out of 5 stars!
In the third book in the New World series, quiet and shy Missy makes one of the hardest decisions in her life – to infiltrate the enemy's camp in order to help a friend. Terrified and alone, she puts herself on the line for the one thing in her life worth fighting for – Tyler.

I love Missy. I love how she was able to step out of her comfort zone, not only to help Tyler but to let herself trust him. Tyler is a character I loved getting to know more about. In the first two books we only got glimpses of him, but they were enough to provoke my curiosity about him. My favorite thing? Seeing the two of them together. Missy has a lot of hurt in her past dealing with men, and Tyler is nothing if not a man's man. He is all muscle and tallness and sexy Scottish accents (Mmmmm...Yes, I would speak his lines out loud using his sexy accent. Don't judge.). He is possessive and dangerous and incredibly scary, but he's all soft and sweet for Missy...even when he's not completely himself.

Tested continues the plot that developed over the first two books and also brought a new exciting direction to the story. Once again, I cannot wait for the next book!

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
