Tranquility by Anya Bast
Tranquility: OtherKin #2
Yes you may ask why I am a glutton for punishment... Well, these are gonna be the first books I delete from my kindle library.
I have had the opportunity to read many of the free reads from Amazon and I can let the grammar/spelling go for the self published, in fact I have come across some really well written self published works. But when you get an author that is a new york times bestseller then you expect a certain standard. I don't think this was edited at all, by the author or an independent source.
This book is set in the same 'world' as Fury and things aren't that different. Roane is another alpha looking for his mate.
Like I've said before, I've read Ms Bast's work previously and the adult content was much steamier and wasn't about the man being so forceful. I expected better of her, to be honest.
Another truly terrible read.

Fury by Anya Bast
Fury: OtherKin #1
Yes it was a freebie off Amazon for the Kindle, yes it is a short story, but for a New York Times bestselling author who has many published works I expected more finesse. This was poorly written with terrible spelling and grammar.
The sex scenes bordered on Merrick forcing himself on Nikki, so really didn't like that. It almost smacks of domestic violence, where a partner forces himself on you and you hate yourself for it. The sex needed to be more steamy, a dominant man can be a good thing but this was just bad taste, in my opinion.
I have read some of Ms Bast's work before, but this was truly terrible.

Witch Fury by Anya Bast

The Blurb...
With the untapped gift to create fire, witch Sarafina Connell is caught up in a war between good and evil. And she has no choice but to join an infamous playboy in the battle for supremacy - one that's getting hotter by the minute.
My Opinion...
Conclusional book to this four part series. Still a bit mushy in many ways but the plot comes to an end which is satisfying and sad.
Witch Heart by Anya Bast

The Blurb...
Claire, a demon's handmaiden, is rescued from enslavement by a handsome playboy. Now they're both in danger of being captured by warlocks who are determined to harness Claire's powers for evil. The third in the Elemental Witch series.
My Opinion...
A great big plot development, predictable romance what more could a girl want? Well a bit less hot and mushy-ness. One more book to go and I can sell them on.
Witch Blood by Anya Bast

The Blurb...
Water witch Isabelle Novak must form an uneasy alliance with earth witch Thomas Mahan to hunt and destroy a demon of tremendous power, even though Thomas' very presence stirs deeper desires than she ever knew she had. This is the secong instalment in the Elemental Witch series.
My Opinion...
Again, rather predictable in the romance department, but, the storyline isn't too bad and almost readable.
Witch Fury by Anya Bast

The Blurb...
After a chaotic marriage and a rough divorce, all Mira Hoskin wants is stability and normality. But when sexy Jack McAllister enters her life, she discovers that what you want is not always what you need. Jack is a powerful witch with the ability to command fire and is anything but normal. As the head of a security detail for The Coven, Jack has been assigned to watch over Mira. She is a natural born witch with the ability to control air and a group of renegade witches has discovered her exsistence and are determined to steal her power - and her life.
My Opinion...
I bought the whole series on eBay a complete bargain really, or so I thought, a bit too romancy for my liking. A good read, action packed but predictable in the romance department.
