Half Past the Witching Hour
(Paranormal Personnel Saga, #3)
After months of anguish and pain Julia’s life is finally getting back on track. She is seeing a handsome giant, an art dealer named Quentin, the agency is getting a lot of business and she is finally over her ex.
All of the sudden her peaceful life shifts, when she blacks out and wakes up several hours later with blood on her hands and with no recollection of what’s happened to her. But life must go on and Julia carries on with her morning, stressed and worried about the future. When she arrives at La Caz Corporation, she stumbles upon a dead body, her ex- co worker Jennifer Griffiths. She starts seeing visions of herself wandering around streets with a knife, the same knife her ex-co worker has been murdered with.
Sadly this is just the beginning of her problems as more petrifying visions keep haunting her thoughts. She begins seeing her mother dying in the fire, screaming for help, and when a new enigmatic elderly elf shows up with an offer that she can’t turn down, nothing seems to be making sense anymore.
She knows for sure that she has to do everything in her power to prevent her visions from happening, which means that she has to start taking some magic lessons and learn to put her trust in strangers.
She gets pulled into the most dangerous game of desire, death and magic. She has to fight her beliefs, understand herself and face the internal struggle of what’s wrong and what’s right. It’s going to be tough but Julia has no choice other than to pull through.
If you are following my reviews, you know I VERY SELDOM read paranormal stories. This is one of the exceptions. This series is so intriguing to me that I had to continue reading what happens to Julia and Nathaniel.
We have here paranormal elves, fairies, giants, shape-shifters, mermaids, vampires and you name it of the paranormal genre. They are a community living peacefully (most of the time) amongst humans in England and Europe. Our story revolves around the antics and growing pains of our heroine Julia who is a half-elf half-human combo - and that always gets her into trouble.
Falling in love with a half-vampire caused turmoil in her family in the past. Now she is dating a giant and things are no better. Everyone has an opinion as to who she should date, marry, etc. You get my drift... these paranormals are faced with the same issues we as humans face every day. The only twist is that they have powers, magic, and strength that causes chaos beyond our dreams.
This is a well-written and thrilling story. In addition, we have an erotic love affair that twists and turns and will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Through our author's magical gift of writing, Julia faces murders, amnesia, and dangers that can turn anyone's hair white instantaneously. You won't be able to put it down! Please note... You need to read this series in order to get the most appreciation as to what is happening. Like with any other series, our characters evolve and grow as they journey through the story. Start at the beginning so you will enjoy the full impact of this remarkable series!

I am a Dhampir — half vampire and half human. When my father died he was brought back to life by a vampire. He returned to my human mother as a vampire, and nine months later I was born.
Thoughts about Julia had corrupted my mind to the point that I couldn’t function. Since Isabelle, I’d avoided getting involved in a real relationship, keeping things to sex only. I had my routine and women who wanted to sleep with me. But now I didn’t want other women; I only wanted Julia.
Julia
Taylor works as a recruitment consultant for Paranormal Personnel in
London. Her normal day at the office consists of seeing clients,
searching for new vacancies, updating CVs and visiting employers.
It
seems as though she has an ordinary life but in reality Julia is half
elf and she works for a recruitment agency for paranormals.
She
is normally calm, confident and is not afraid to stand up for herself,
but when the meeting with La Caz Corporation doesn’t go as well as she
hoped, she wants to bury herself under the ground and die.
Nathaniel
La Caz is a player and he wants to seduce Julia. The incredible sexual
chemistry that builds up between them complicates her life to the point
where she can’t control her magic. La Caz not only wants her but he also
has a craving for her blood. Then her ex-boyfriend Jasper comes back on
the scene and nearly exposes the whole paranormal world to humans when
trying to protect her.
It doesn't end well when vampires and
elves mix. The problems start escalating when Julia witnesses the
kidnapping of her cousin Claudia on the busy street. From then on things
only go from bad to worst. More elves and fairies begin to vanish in
London without trace and the police suspect vampires. Julia is
determined to find Claudia even if it means she will get herself into
more trouble.
