Hoodoo Blue by Katalina Leon my review
Review Courtesy of April Hollingworth
This is a wonderfully fun book. The characters are brilliant and what flies out of their mouths is pretty hilarious. This is a sexy and sweet novella, and a must read. I loved it.
Opening Scene:
Fredi gazed into the depths of the crate and whispered in her softest, most reassuring voice.
The Review:
Fredi is a passionate witch with a scorching hot secret. With the slightest sexual thought, even a small one, green fire blast from her fingertips. Things are getting out of hand. There’s only so much a frustrated girl can do about dampening down her urges. She’s determined to gain control of herself, even if it means staying out of the social scene indefinitely. Meeting Gus definitely doesn’t help her control herself.
Gus is a gorgeous lycan, his wild wolf-shifts scare away women. All he wants is to have a relationship, something his increasing lack of control isn’t helping with. He’s determined to get control on his wolfy ways before he scares off another woman.
A friend has other ideas though. She thinks Fredi and Gus will be perfect for each other, and the best way to gain control is together. Setting them up, she tricks them into drinking a frosty pitcher of “Hoodoo Blue.” It should have been a simple thing, except the spell takes on a life of its own. Things go from crazy to surreal quicker that Gus can howl.
Can Fredi and Gus realize that sometimes a little Hoodoo is exactly what you need to find your perfect mate?
Notable Scene:
“What’s your name?” The man’s rich voice burned with the same slow fire as a swig of dark rum.
“Frederica De la Cruz.” Her throat tightened. “But everyone calls me Fredi. I have insurance, but there are other ways we can take care of this.”
He allowed his gaze to drift toward her plunging neckline, but he seemed to catch himself and his attention immediately returned to her face. “I’d be very interested to hear about those other way’s.”
“I meant I’m a witch. I can hex-bond the paint. I’ve done it before. It will be a perfect match. You’ll never see the damage, but it will have to be another time. I don’t have my wand with me.”
A crooked smile lit his face. “You’re very up front about being a witch. You don’t seem to have any reservations about telling a stranger you’re a member of the enchantment community. It’s gutsy and refreshing.”
“I’m not ashamed of being a witch.”
“I didn’t mean to imply that you should be. I meant it was refreshing that you told me up front.”
“Oh.”
“Ummm.” He stalled. “I’ve had a few misunderstandings in the past, myself.”
She moved a step backward to put a little distance between her and his formidable build. It was impossible to disguise the disapproval that crept into each word. “Are you a warlock?”
“No.” He tilted his head, and his eyes flashed an iridescent shade of golden-green before briefly glowing amber.
She should have known at first sight he wasn’t a warlock; his build was too robust. “You’re Lycan?”
He grinned a devastating, bright smile “Yep.”
