Witches of the Island Book 2: A Stormy and Sultry Sea by Katie McGarry

Witches of the Island Book 2



A witch and a Fae aren’t supposed to fall in love, nonetheless be soulmates…

New witch and midwife Cassie Strega helped a human mother through the tumultuous birth of the queen of the demons, and now Cassie and the baby have been kidnapped by one of the four demon princes fighting each other to lay claim to their new queen. Cassie hopes she can appeal to the human side of the child in order to save humanity, but as the child feeds upon her soul, Cassie must also battle the four demon-prince-uncles who intend for the infant to fulfill her dark destiny.

The love of Cassie’s life, the sultry Fae warrior and heir to the Fae kingdom, Orion, is still searching for the Fae queen he’s been tasked to find, but he is also desperate to save Cassie from his archenemies. He is torn between his heart and his duty, but if he doesn’t save Cassie by Beltane, the blood bond that connects Cassie to Orion will forever be severed and she will be marked as an enemy to the Fae—one he is sworn by oath to kill.

Fate was cruel when it linked Cassie and Orion together. Their attraction to each other is undeniable, their love assured, but these fated lovers are doomed by a curse that threatens to keep them apart. Every touch during every shared dream, every kiss during every cherished moment together is driving them closer to what will either be a victory of humanity or an end no mortal will be able to survive. Will love, in the end, truly conquer all or will it destroy them all?

My Review: 5/5 Stars

This series just keeps getting better! So I thought this was the last book in the series but at the end of the book I learned there will be a third and final book, so the story isn't quite over just yet! And with an ending like that, there is definitely a lot still left to unravel. So this story takes place right where book one ended for the most part. Cassie and Wren are with the newborn demon queen and a demon prince. The more time she spends with the baby, the more she believes that the baby can be raised in love and won't be what everyone fears. Meanwhile, Orion is desperately searching for Cassie after watching her disappear. Cassie and Orion are working hard to get back to one another but for Cassie, she knows she must be careful and figure out a way to convince Orion that there could be another solution for the fate of the demon queen. And for Orion, it is trying to balance the demands of the Council and finding Cassie. Everything will change for them in this story. They still need to find the fae queen and one top of that witches are missing. It will take everyone working together and finally allowing trust between them to create a better future. So holy bananas on the plot twists in this story. Just when you figure out one thing, something else happens. So much happened and I couldn't put the book down. I was desperate to know how everything would play out. Could Cassie and Orion find one another again? Will they have their future? Or will the visions of Orion's death be true? Will Cassie find the fae queen and protect the demon queen? So much is happening!! Cannot wait for the next book. Major cliffhangers and I just can't wait to see how the story unfolds.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
