A Witch's Beauty
Joey W. Hill
Berkley, Jan 2009, $15.00
ISBN: 9780425225677
Mina knows being a half-breed leaves her looking from the outside as neither her mother’s race of Mermaids nor her father’s Dark Ones trust her. She remains an unholy abomination although she risked her life to save that of Prime Legion Commander for the Goddess, Jonah the Angel (see A MERMAID’S KISS). Her reward is further distrust and suspicion from Jonah and his angelic horde as she displayed Dark One power.
Whereas Marcellas wants her caged as Dark One’s are always evil, Jonah assigns angels to keep an eye on Mina, who detests the surveillance even if the Prime Legion Commander insists it is for her safety as well as theirs. However, her prime guard is David, a former human turned angel, who like Mina struggles with controlling the dark side that flows within his blood. As they fall in love, no one knows whether their passion will ignite the dark or light of their respective natures or burn out either or both of their souls.
The latest erotic Joey W. Hill fantasy is an excellent addition to a great saga. A WITCH’S BEAUTY is a direct sequel to the fabulous A MERMAID’S KISS with Mina in spite of her heroism even more of a pariah to the angels. David is a fascinating lead protagonist as he believes he sees the goodness in his beloved’s soul while everyone else assumes his human origins tainted his perceptions with rose colored glasses. As the eternal war continues with no end in sight, a flicker of hope arises with love, trust, and a new generation. Ms. Hill is one of the best fantasists on the market today as her battle of heaven and earth excels with every entry.
