Fire Me up

Our Guardian Aisling Grey is on a trip to Budapest and to a convention of supernatural beings. She is still working for her uncle as an antiquities courier and must deliver an antique amulet to a hermit. She finds out much to her surprise that Drake Vireo, the wyvern of the green dragons is staying in the same hotel she is. Rene cab driver extraordinaire also shows up to take his cousins place again which perks up her curiosity as well.

Once again things start going all awry and she finds herself in the middle of trouble all over again. Mortal men start falling at her feet, which she feels quite embarrassed over, and can't figure out why they are doing it. She is at the conference to find a Guardian mentor to help her learn her powers and maybe control the powers she does not know. You would think that would be easy but each guardian she comes into contact with turns up dead which is getting very upsetting.

Katie MacAlister delights us with another in the Aisling Grey Guardian series. It is a spectacularly written story that adds to the Aisling and Drake relationship. It keeps you guessing what Aisling and her demon are going to do or get into next. I can't wait to read the next book in the series. You will be pleasantly surprised at this addition and will want the whole collection as I do.

I nodded. “It’s pretty obvious that it has masculinity issues, which means it values its manly bits. A little flick of the knife in the demonic happy zone and voila! Instant compliance.

Nora shook her head, a slight smile on her face. “I don’t believe I have ever seen anyone control a demon using on the threat of emasculation. It is unprecedented. It is… quite an odd method of control.”

“Aisling is a very unique woman,” Drake said as he walked by holding a smoking, quivering tablecloth full of imps. “It is one of her many charms.”

I grinned at him.
