The Enchanter's Flame

This is a good paranormal romance with a lot of humor. I was in just the right mood for it, after finishing a somewhat boring read. I laughed a lot at some of the situations; Ailin, a witch, has an affinity for animals, and his human partner, Sebastian, doesn't react well to all of Ailin's little buddies. It's really funny.

The banter between Ailin and Sebastian is really the soul of this book, and there's more of it than anything else. It was slightly too much for me, eventually, because it stayed antagonistic, even after the romance officially got rolling. I wanted a little more sweetness and less of Sebastian's prickliness, after that point. Still, the romance is of the soulbonding type, and I liked it.

The crimes sound harrowing in the blurb, but this isn't a gory book or anything. But I do want to warn for non-consensual mind-reading as well as non-consensual magical bonding.

Overall, I enjoyed this book, and I'm sure I'll read the sequel.
