Demon Hunt (#2) By Christine Ashworth

Tribred Gregor Caine decided long ago to deny his blood legacy. So he is’not happy when paired with a full-blooded Fae to hunt the demons threatening to overrun Los Angeles. As they fight side by side, he finds she calls to both his Fae and his demon blood; a call he can’t resist.
Warrior Fae Serra Willows crossed into the Human Plane to help destroy the demons released from the Chaos Plane. Finding and shutting down the portal between worlds is more challenging than she expected...and Gregor and his world more seductive than she had ever imagined.
As the killings escalate, Gregor and Serra realize one of the most deadly demons from the Chaos Plane has marked Serra as his own. To save her, Gregor has to face his greatest fear—losing his humanity to the darkness in his blood. But in a race against time, that darkness could become his greatest strength. And he will kill to claim Serra’s love.

What New York Times Bestselling Author Maggie Shayne has to say about DEMON HUNT:

"Demon Hunt sucked me in from the very first page. A potent, exciting, Fae adventure that keeps you turning pages while you try to catch your breath. Ashworth's talent shines in this unique and original novel. Do not miss it."



Elena's Review:

  "Very often,life isn't logical,but it usually makes sense if you're paying attention." 

  Giving up isn't an option. So what's a person to do, when.........You're human, falling for a Fae,not any Fae but a strong Warrior Fae? Geez Lousie! Gregor can't keep denying he's just a "human" forever. Having Fae and demon blood inside him,Amps ups his big role in the story. And deep down his inner self is itching for a fight,any fight. 

  The first would be the big fight! They're a few days away from the Winter Solice,which is a night for magicks,when the natural walls between the Planes grow slim. Many of the Fae,and humans as well as demons,hold rituals on the longest night of the year. Kendall Sorbis,is evil incarnated,he'll do what it takes to use the Winter Solice to his advantage,stealing powers from demons and the helpless. So, Gregor and his team must find and close the portal before the the full moon,or there will be many of deaths. 

 Next fight? Fighting his every urge and desire that he's attracted to Serra. C'mon! I'm a woman and know without a doubt, a female Fae warrior with a badass protective streak is, H.A.W.T! Once he embraces his bloodlines, he blows in full force,claims what his heart desires,and takes in what he's meant to be like a real man! Go Gregor! Lolz! Together Gregor and Serra make a great team,I'd never want to cross their paths,unless I'm the good villian =P

 I liked the first novel,and hopped right into this novel liking it even better.I'm hoping for book three,not only to like it, but to love it! My two favorite characters,Justin and Maggie. They've pretended to grate on each others nerves, bicker and banter, in every book. So enough of the foreplay and bring on the good stuff! *snickers* These Caine brothers know how to reel in their woman. Starting with me,and that's more than enough said.... Hehe!

 All in all, congrats to the author on her new release, and keep these stories coming. Two-thumbs up!

Demon Soul By Christine Ashworth

Gabriel Caine stands on the edge of the abyss. A vampire has stolen his soul and if he doesn't get it back soon, his next step will be into Hell. Only the naïvely mysterious Rose can help him retrieve it. Without her, he really will become the devil himself.

Rose Walters has been sent back from the dead to complete one task-save Gabriel Caine. She's drawn to Gabriel on the most basic level, but restoring his soul may cost Rose her life.

Rose has touched the whole of Gabriel, making him yearn for a love he believes he can never have. Her willingness to put her human life on the line for him forces him to bring all three parts of himself—demon, human, and Feri bloodlines, and the strengths of each—into harmony and into the fight that decides their fate

Elena's Review:


Rose Walters,had been stuck in coma wondering the gray of the in-between. She was offered a chance to come back to life to rescue a Gabriel Caine and prevent his death. She accepted the task without hesitation and no questions asked. She doesn't know what she's coming back to life as, and is only clear on saving this person.Well isn't that interesting! Rose's  eyes are opened up to a whole new world she never knew existed. 

Gabriel Caine,thinks Rose is full of herself,working for the enemy or another nut bag trying to steal the rest of his soul. As a Tribred,Gabriel can pick up things no normal paranormal being can channel. So all thoughts of Rose being the enemy is put aside, and they work together to figure out,the "who,what,how,where and why" of their problems and goals.

Turns out Rose came back alive being a Soul Chalice the opposite of a Soul Stealer. Satine,The Soul Stealer/Vampire(which is the enemy) is everyone's cause of problems, including being the one who stole half of Gabriel's soul. Once she's taken care of, all will run just as planned. Can they defeat her and make things right? Can Rose save Gabriel and return his soul?  Let's hope so.........

I love the plot of the story and the characters,they each own up to their personalities. Between the past and the present, alot has changed for everyone. I'm glad with the outcome. I just wished for the heroines sake her past was a little sugar coated,I can deal with many things,but to know her past was anything but fruitful, just gave me the shivers. But throughout the story no matter what,she stood strong and held her head high,and I  loved her for it. The Hero,Heroine, and the rest of their crew made this story what it is. Everyone teaches Rose what it's like to have real family and friends who cares,and Rose teaches them what it's like to survive. 

The story was so cute, by the end of the novel I had a huge smile from ear to ear,which I'm so grateful for, at 95% I was so worried I started to sweat bullets! I was sure it was going to end with a nasty cliffhanger. Oh how I despise cliffhangers! Lol!! But I wasn't disappointed :) Loved the whole "Alice in wonderland" Saying. *still smiling*
