H.P. Mallory's "Fire Burn and Cauldron Bubble"



May I start by saying that I LOVE that "Paranormal Romance" is an actual genre now? It cracks me up, and man do I love my paranormal romances. I would definitely say that they are my literary guilty pleasure.

This series, "The Jolie Wilkins Series", was recommended to me by a fellow PR lover, and upon the first couple of pages, I had my doubts.

Jolie Wilkins is a 28 year-old psychic in LA, who doesn't date and is perfectly content with her life, running her psychic business with her best friend, Christa and spending her evenings at home with her cat.

Then, one day, a Adonis-esque stud of a guy enters her shop, tells her his name is Rand and that he's a warlock and her life is never the same. Jolie finds out that not only is she a witch, but after taking a job offer from Rand, she learns that she has the unheard-of ability to bring back the dead, a power which makes her a prized trophy in the brewing war between the Underworlders. 

Once thrown into the world of the creatures of the night, Jolie must learn her craft while fending off the advances of every hot magical being that she comes into contact with, including not only her new employer, but a Master vampire, a werewolf that she brings back from the dead, a ghost and the King of the Fairies. 

Despite my initial doubts, "Fire Burn and Cauldron Bubble" is sexy, quirky, fun and a very entertaining read. Get a hot cup of cocoa and curl up, because it's a perfect read for a lazy day in.
