The Trouble With Spells: Of Witches and Warlocks Book 1

Portia Mullins had always lived the life of a normal teenager, up until her sixteenth birthday. She is then informed by her grandma that she is actually a witch who is a descendant of a long line of witches and warlocks. After overcoming her disbelief she finds that being a member of the coven comes with one great perk in the form of the school's handsome bad boy, Vance Mangum. Vance and Portia have an immediate connection as a budding romance begins, only to be threatened by turbulent skies on the horizon as Vance's checkered past rears its ugly head to haunt them. Portia is forced to use her untried powers in defense of everything she loves in a desperate attempt to hold on to the one thing that really matters in her life.

My Review

When I read the title of this book I didn't expect the romance and the magnetic attraction between  Vance and Portia. I could not put the book down, When money went into the bank I bought the whole series for my kindle I wanted to know more I wanted to know what would happen between them and what powers did portia posses. It's a must read and I love that the author left some things to the imagination and didnt say all the detail when it came to  Vance and Portia's intimate relationship and left you feeling her deseiers to your imagination. This book has everything from non stop action, good and evil, danger and suspence and the connections with the charicters are strong.




The Demon Kiss: Of Witches and Warlocks Book 2  

Can someone Else's past come back to bite you? After being drained of nearly all the blood in her body, novice witch Portia's Mullins wakes up to find that her warlock boyfriend, Vance Mangum, has fled in search of his demon father. Determined to keep him from facing evil alone Portia follows after him, unknowingly setting herself on the path of a new adventure that will take her, Vance and their coven over international borders, into a foreign place where they will discover that the black magic that awaits them is far worse than they ever imagined. Portia finds herself tangled up in a web of lies and deceit in another quest for demonic power in excitingly romantic second paranormal novel in the witches and warlocks series, The Demon Kiss.

My review


When I started to read the second book I was still exhilarated by the 1st book, Then to find that Portia Has powers beyond what her coven had originally thought keeps me wanting to know more. The determination of her love and protection towards Vance Was as strong as a love and protection for any parent towards her children. No matter how much she got herself into trouble all she wanted to do was be with him no matter what situation she found her self in but unfortunately it would never be that simple for her or anyone as what ever you do always had repercussion on someone else's lives as siblings, parents and people who love you will do anything to help protect you. As this books caries on to show. Even though this book revolved around Portia and Vance lives it always bring in the lives of others but this series is all about their story and I would love to read more about how the rest of her coven think and feel it does touch on a little of this in the books but not as much as I would have liked. This book reads more on thire conection and relationship together and those who love them. If you loved the 1st book you will want to follow this series all the way to the end it always keeps you wanting to know more, it is action packed, romance and friendship written all over it.

 


Blood of the White Witch Of Witches and Warlocks  Book 3


Portia and Vance are still overcoming their ordeal with Damien Cummings (Vance's father) from The Demon Kiss. Vance decides he wants to dig deeper into the confession that Darcy had made regarding his mother and his father's family. This takes them on a journey to Scotland where they find more than they had bargained for.
As the personal connection between Portia and Vance explodes, the two quickly find themselves in a world of shifting balances. While searching for Vance's missing mother, they realize they are suddenly unsure of who to trust, learning sometimes things are not always as they appear. When Vance's demon characteristics abruptly begin to resurface without warning, the horrible truth comes out, crashing down upon them and shattering some of their most precious dreams. Once the deadly secret is uncovered, Portia and Vance find themselves hastily rushing against the hands of time in and attempt to stop an ancient ritual. Passion, loyalties, powers, and family ties, will all be tested when dangerous adventures abound in the third installment in the Of Witches and Warlocks series...Blood of the White Witch.

 My Review

This boks contains the passion that the two characters have for each other but they do not have that much time together before they head off on another adventure thinking it was going to be easy and that his mother was in safe hand his grandparents are not as they seem and you do have this feeling straight from the start unknowing to Vance who has fallen in love with the idear of now having a family he can relate to and spend quality time with but poor Portia could also sence that there was something not right and just couldnt see it untill it was too late. There is never an andventure that thses two go on that turns out right for them. I feel so sorry for them they go through hell and back yet to face another brick wall that they have to knock a hole in so that their relationship can survive and bloom but in this book it just another thing to see how far they can go. Vance and Portia are betraid by those who they thought were family but one person, his mother who is now mortal and will still need to be rescued as well as them selves yet again the covern have to get involved and come to save the day. This book by the end had me in tears Yet I wanted to read on to the other book even though this book is mostly about vance, portia comes out hurt again and this time can she come out the other side fighting? You have to finish thi sbook and quickly go to the next as it leaves you with a reeling cliff hanger.


 

The Dark Rising: Of Witches and Warlocks Book 4

The two quickly reconnect, but dark surprises are lurking in the wings when Vance discovers a desperate longing for something he feels he can't withstand. Will he be able to resist? Or will evil raise its head in a new form, leaving Portia as the prey of the very man her heart desires? Darkness reigns supreme in this haunting tale of love and desperation, Of Witches and Warlocks, The Dark Rising.

 
My Review


When I learnt that Vance has awaken from the dead I was in sock just as much as portia was,  as soon as I  read that he lost his memory I didn't think that there was any good in him as coming back from the dean usually means that there is only evil left in them. I couldnt wait to see what potia would do or how far she would go to help him back on the right road to goodness. portia gets stronger not only physically and emotionally but her powers grow beond what she or even the coven could even think it could become, yet she still stand by her husband ( Vance) with only the usual on her mind to love him with all her heart no matter what he has become or dont to her and to contunu to try to protect him even if its from himself. Yet again they go through hell and back together to save their marriage, only to arrive at yet another brick wall that they have to knock down. Portia makes new friends in this book who becomes important to her survival. This book has more action and a game of cat and mouse as potia tryes to same Vance yet again. It also shows just how much the love conection still brings them together and patia will never fight it and always treasure it as she shows in this book. Portia becomes a warroir/witch in this book. I loved everyminit of it Turly girl power. couldn't put this book down and started reading the 5th book straight after.



 Possession of Souls (Of Witches and Warlocks Book 5 

Fear and desperation leave Portia and Vance clinging to threadbare hope as life is given, and taken away. Manipulated, driven by blood lust and the desire to claim sole possession, the stakes are raised higher than they've ever been before. Evil rises with the intent to dominate, leading them and their coven to the ultimate confrontation-a battle which will force one of them to make a devastating, life-altering decision. Who will survive the final stand?

 
My Review
 

Portia goes out of her comfort zone just to save vance and to be closer to him yet to understand what he goes though but  did he betray her was it the evil inside him making convincing her to do things she didn't really want to do, Vance father has his hand into there personal lives and is able to manipulate there relationship just to get what he wasn't but portia with her devotion to vance will go beyond her duty to him to save him and risk her own life unknowing that her family's life is also now in danger as her dad was taken by vance father and patia's dad sacrifices him-self for the coven yet again I was in shock and in tears I could not even think of how she was feeling knowing that her dad was on the brink of turning evil or even dying to protect her. But the coven all come together together with her faithful friends to help protect her and vance. In the end Vance returns all his promises to portia to always keep her safe by performing the demon kiss on her but soes he survive? Portia's dad is able to stop vance's father but in turn losses his life to while portia looses all her powers to Vance who becomes this super warlock who is devoted to right all the wrongs in his life and is still dedicated to Portia even though the lloging link of magic is no longer pulling on their hearts they still are married and become the family they always wanted btu what about there child dose he posses all of vances powers even those he accumulated through  the demon kiss we will never know unless the author writes the 6th book. Loved the series and the sad yet happy ending.
