Witch Under Wraps

Mythmatched

When supernatural secrets collide, it’ll take more than coffee to brew the perfect love.

When Ky Hernández bonded with his familiar, Zuri, his life changed forever. Their connection turned him into a practicing witch and led him to his calling as a medimagical professional. However, it totally tanked his love life - what guy would settle for eternal second place behind a parrot?

So, Ky keeps his witchy nature under wraps and sticks to hookups with humans, which can never go anywhere. But the mouthwatering barista at the coffee shop next door makes him thirst for more than a caffeine fix.

The charms Ewan Jones uses to appear human are inconvenient, disorienting, and necessary. Ewan and his siblings are achubyddion, metaphysical healers whose powers are coveted by unscrupulous supernatural beings.

And let’s face it: All supes are unscrupulous, given the right incentive. He’s grateful for the protections that hide his little family and for the barista job that keeps them housed and fed. He’s just so lonely. And his regular Ky, the super-hot, commitment-averse EMT, seems like the perfect candidate for a one-night shot at intimacy. After all, humans are no threat.

It takes a clumsy coffee shop intern, a mysterious werewolf epidemic, and one snarky parrot to unravel their pasts - and give them a chance at a future.

Charming :D

Oh, this one I really liked! Fun, cute and very, very entertaining.

There are family secrets, fears and misconceptions, and a strange epidemic that it is spreading, quick. The mystery of the epidimic has a big place in the story (which I really liked) and added a sense of urgence to the plot.

The characters are nice, but my favourite, hands down, is Zuri :P Sorry, but that parrot is a smarty-pants, and I love it.

I admire Ewan's loyalty and love for his family. He's ready to let his life go to protect them, so it's easy to understand his panic when he thinks that he has brought danger to their door. And Ky, lonely, lonely Ki! He found what he didn't know he was needing in Ewan.

Greg Boudreaux' narration was really good :D

Can’t Get Enough of this World

I really hope EJ Russel continues with the interweaving stories in the Fae out of Water Universe. Although reading/listening to the other books are not necessary, as this is a standalone story by itself, the experience is definitely enriched of you’ve read the other books.

I love the intricate universe she has created and this latest addition was just as awesome.

As always Greg Boudreaux’s narration is spot on, giving life to the characters. I hope there’s more to these series!

Love love love!

Amazing

Another amazing story EJ Russel. Ky and Ewan where fantastic characters. So happy some of the previous characters make an appearance. Greg Boudreaux was a superstar with the narration.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Greg, you've done it again. Sweet story, too.

Actually, Greg Boudreaux/Tremblay is the best when it comes to voice acting. I dare any actor paid millions to do a better job. He will beat them. This was a great story; but Greg just put it into the stratosphere with his narration/acting. It would not have been the same with anybody else doing the narration. Just want you to know that I am in love with your work and what you contribute to this particular dramatic art!

Good, but…

I’ve realized that I really dislike tropes that have the MCs NOT getting something that’s right under their noses, especially for the majority of the story. Omg 🙄 How many times Zuri said what Ewan was with Ky assuming she was talking about David…ugh. I was so annoyed, blurting out “it’s not David!” Too long, too frustrating.
