Publisher's summary

Her powerful presence brings him to his knees. His animalistic ruggedness has her panting for more.

Always forced to keep her powers and identity under wraps, Isadora Berta dreams of a normal life. After encountering the sexy and mysterious Ryerson McKinnon, the up-and-coming Alpha wolf, she realizes her life was never destined for normalcy. With their desire for one another intensifying, and the passion between them igniting, Ryerson tries to keep his amped-up libido in check.

Easier said than done....

When Izzy's life is threatened, Ryerson vows to protect her, sending their mating ritual into another realm of pleasure and mystique. But can Izzy find real safety when love as magical as theirs can render her powerless?

Welcome to Silver Lake, where appearances can be deceiving, and what you see isn’t truly what lies below. Under the calm and shimmering surface lie intrigue, magic, and love.

LOVED IT!

I really enjoyed his book. It had the drama, suspense and romance. The narration was good and kept you entertained. This author did a great job with her character builds and plot. This was my first book by this author but definitely will not be my last. I looking forward to reading the other books in this series! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Shifters Witches an immortal and a Goddess

I loved this book. I was hooked from the very first page.I loved i Izzy’s character and I am so jealous I don’t have any magic. Her and Rye had chemistry from the beginning. Witches and shifters, a goddess and an immortal a pack of bears and wolves all combine brought a unique storyline definitely for those over 18 as the six scenes are quite steamy. Can’t wait for the next book in the series and I am definitely moving to Silver Lake. The narration was very good, he did a great job flowing in and out of characters

Loved

I read the ebook back in 2016 so it was great to see that it was in audio. I do not think Vella could o picked out a better narrator. Michael Johnson did an amazing job. I think I could listen to his voice all day.

Every time I read a book by Vella Day I am always amazed. She does such a wonderful job. Trust me this is a book you will not be able to put down.

Ryerson McKinnon was this nice looking shifter werewolf in Silver Lake, Tennessee. He was faced with getting ready to take on a lot of responsibility. His father will soon hand down the Alpha title to him. I cannot imagine how overwhelmed he must of felt to take on that type of responsibility. Though he would have had his best friend Kalan Murdoch as second in command which is his beta, he still had no mate. He wasn’t certain if he was even ready for Alpha little long a mate. 

Isadora Berta aka Izzy was what was known as a Wendayan or a witch. Her powers were great and she was in Westhaven, Scotland to master them. What she did not realize was she was in danger while she was in Scottland. I guess she was lucky that Naliana who was the moon goddess was looking out for her. 

I truly hated Owen Chancellor who was a Changeling aka mutant crazy werewolf. He want Izzy and was determined he was going to have her. The question is what great lengths will he go to force her to be his wife?

Rye and Izzy have such a great love story. Rye finds himself faced with the fact that Izzy is his mate. He has to worry about not claiming her to soon. He wants her to be ready and willing when he claims her. They find the attraction they have for each other becomes very hard to control themselves. The mixing of a shifter and a Wendayan just is not done. How will their people acted when they find out? 

Rye and Izzy will not have it easy in this story. There are obstacles and danger all around. Rye has this huge over need to protect Izzy. Izzy is a very independent woman. She will find there is a time she really needs him more than ever. Both Izzy and Rye will learn the lesson of needing others and both will learn the lesson of swallowing their pride.

My Thoughts on A Magical Shift

3.5 of 5 stars

This paranormal romance by new to me author Vella Day was a good series starter.

What I liked:
- This story had a really entertaining story line that held my interest and was fast paced.
- Both main characters as well as secondary characters were likable and I feel like they were really well developed.
- I liked this version of a shifter and witch world. I like the way the author gave it diversity of creatures (different kinds of weres and witches) and not automatically having the different supernatural creatures as adversaries.

When it comes to narration of this story, the narrator did a good job with throwing in some accents so it wasn't just one and I think he did good overall with trying to give a different voice to each different character even if it didn't always hit the mark for me.

Would I read the next book in this series or others by this author? Absolutely. Would I listen to other stories by this narrator? Yes, at least one more. There were occasional moments were the tone went a little nasal sounding as the story went along but it wasn't anything that would deter me from at least giving him one more listen. This was my first narration by Michael Johnson and I would certainly be willing to try another.

Witch and Shifter fun with a stalker thrown in!

Narrator did a good job. He gave a clear, quality performance. I’d recommend listening.

Izzy is a witch, who is returning home after some weird events happen to her abroad. She’s been away for years, so she’s happy to be with her family again. Unfortunately, someone with some bad intentions has followed her. Ryerson is a wolf shifter firefighter, who has known of Izzy for awhile, but hasn’t really been fully near her. When he actually comes to know her, he realizes that there’s a good possibility she is his mate. He doesn’t want to scare her off with how passionately he wants her, so he tries to maintain his composure but his wolf isn’t up for that. Add in someone out to hurt her, and Rye’s protective nature wants to go full force. Izzy is attracted to Rye too, but she’s confused by him putting the breaks on when they are together.

Loved the stalker premise! It adds some nice suspense to the story. The magical elements were fun too, and of course, I love the shifter aspect. Love the protective nature of Ryerson! Rye and Izzy have good chemistry with some good steam too. I do think they should’ve figured things out a lot sooner, but the story was still entertaining. Looking forward to checking out more books by Vella Day!
