Fans of Keri Arthur will love the Weird Girls, four
sisters cursed with supernatural powers. In Cecy Robson’s latest urban fantasy
romance, the search is on for an unholy grail, while evil is licking its
wounds—and looking for revenge.
The preternatural
world is changing. After a massive magical throwdown tore apart the established
order, the dark elements are rebuilding their ranks unopposed. Celia Wird’s world
is changing, too. She’s the mate of the pureblood were Aric, and his Warriors
are honor-bound to protect her family as she and her sisters recover from
unimaginable horrors.
Celia hesitates
to reveal the true extent of the Wird sisters’ trauma, but they aren’t the only
ones keeping secrets: Aric and the werewolf Elders are tracking a stone that
grants limitless power. So is a tough coven of witches. Then Misha, a master
vampire with his own plans for the stone, sends Celia after it. Can she and the
vamps beat both the weres and the witches to the treasure before it falls into
the wrong hands?
Fearing for
Celia’s safety, Aric begs her to stay out of the hunt. What they don’t realize
is that they’re the ones being hunted. But Celia’s ready to prove that she’s
not easy prey.
Aric lowered me to ground. He hadn’t realized I was awake until
then. But he did know what I meant. To kill a shifter, you have to either
mutilate the heart or brain. Aric hadn’t done either to the tiger that attacked
us. “I don’t know,” he said, rubbing his sternum. “For now, I only care that
Tura’s dead.”
“Tura?” I asked.
Aric growled. He continued to stare at the shifter as if expecting
him to attack. “He’s one of the oldest shape-shifters we’re aware of and among
the deadliest.”
Yet Aric had taken Tura out in order to defend me. I tried not to
shudder. Just like that, I could have lost him.
Aric sensed my fear and leaned into me to whisper. “I’m safe and so
are you. I will always protect you, okay?”
“Just like I’ll always protect you, too,” I told him. I meant it,
and I knew he meant what he said as well, but I couldn’t shake the feeling
something was wrong.
Aric motioned to the panther. “Who made the kill?”
Gemini stepped forward. “I did. But it required our combined forces
to bring her down.” He had his arm around my sister Taran, although his show of
affection seemed forced.
Just a few weeks back, Taran would have been smiling up at her mate,
bragging about what a badass wolf he was. But Taran was no longer the same.
None of us were.
Anara was a trusted Pack Elder who allowed his hatred toward me to
spiral out of control. This monster literally tore my and Aric’s
baby from my womb. Ugly scars lined my lower belly, a reminder that our baby
was gone, and that we would never be able to conceive another. And while
Anara’s actions left me devastated and almost killed me, I hadn’t suffered
alone.
Anara had chewed Taran’s arm off from the elbow down and devoured
both of Shayna’s. Shayna’s werewolf essence regenerated her spirit and arms
completely. Taran hadn’t fared as well. In an effort to help, the Pack Omega
had attempted to use Taran’s mate bond with Gemini to regrow Taran’s arm. No
one could have predicted how freakishly Taran’s magic would clash with the
Pack’s, but it had, and it changed Taran in a way that broke my heart.
Stark white skin covered Taran’s new appendage and sickly blue veins
ran down its length. While technically a healthy and functioning arm, it stood
out like a clump of snow against a golden beach. For someone who appeared
seemingly perfect—flawless olive skin, killer curves, and bold blue eyes—Taran
didn’t feel beautiful anymore. She wore elbow-length gloves to conceal her new
limb and had lost much of the persona that made her the family hellcat.
And now she was also losing control over her power.
