Karma’s a witch.

When witch Jena Seymore returns home to Havers-by-the-Sea to care for her dying aunt, old town politics and prejudices are rekindled. Between the local Westside Pack’s vendetta against her family and the coven pressuring Jena to become guardian of the magical node outside of town, she has enough problems without adding Chase Montgomery to the mix. Especially after he broke her heart by starting the devastating rumor that sent Jena running from town in the first place.

But Chase has plenty of problems of his own, and how to make amends with Jena and win her heart is at the top of the list. Unbeknownst to his pack, Jena is his fated mate, and after her leaving town the first time almost killed him, he’s not letting her get away again—no matter what the backlash might be.

And meanwhile, the node is turning wild, jeopardizing Havers-by-the Sea’s existence as tensions threaten to tear it apart from within. Deep-seated small town secrets could hold the key to its future—but only if they’re discovered before Samhain, when the blue moon rises.

Magic happens and sparks fly when a sassy witch with curves for days crosses paths with an irresistible alpha shifter. WERES AND WITCHERY, a standalone spicy small town romance by AK Nevermore.

It doesn’t get any better than that. The storyline is solid, engaging, the world building is multi-dimensional and once you start you won’t want to put it down.” – @sunshinewhispers

It wasn’t to be. Ripped apart at the loss of her unborn babies and the uncaring lovers who’d rejected her, Heather locks away her heart. Her dreams never come true.

She has nothing left to lose.
She will warn the God that the appointed guardian of Rainier territory is destroying the clan. If she dies during the ritual, so be it.

Maybe he can get his brothers for fall for her.

But his plan is crushed when danger threatens all he holds dear.

Short review: Read it!

Cherise Sinclair is a must buy, must read author. This stand-alone is easy to follow and difficult to put down. No editing errors, gratuitous violence or drag-you-down drama.

Compelling, beautiful storyline of healing hearts, minds and a town. Descriptive writing that draws the reader into each scene. Realistic procedures, actions and reactions. The responses of the characters to various problems shows how it can and should be done to build a better life for all concerned. Believable characters with distinct personalities and their own emotional baggage. Thought-provoking, memorable and occasionally humorous dialogue.

“I think it’s because IQ and testosterone are incompatible, so when one increases, the other goes down.”

I will re-read this story and always look forward to, pre-order when possible, new works by this author.

4.0 out of 5 stars Heather’s Story
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2023

This is Heather’s story who we met over the past several books but got to know more in the previous book. This one is about “those dang Canadians” apparently. The way things go down with Pete were interesting, I did find it odd that Herne kept him alive. It doesn’t seem to be his normal MO with The Laws and such. But him and Gretchen were sort of after thoughts and the tension from outside the relationship was really nil. Most of the conflict arose from their own preconceived notions. I did like mates. I like how we see them over time getting to know Heather but I didn’t like how some things were glossed over, or how we would mention some people and then kind of they’d disappear. Overall I enjoyed the book and can’t wait to see what happens with Moya.

Feeling a bit betrayed...
Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2019

I say betrayed because in book one Theoden talked about how he usually doesn't 'share' his children, but in book two he's sharing them out left and right, even using them as pawns to get things he wants. He pimps Noel out more than once to acquire things to further his own ends, and not just Noel either. On one hand Theoden 'thinks' to himself about caring about Noel, and then his actions betray that by his pimping Noel out at the drop of a hat. How can you care about someone but then treat them like their some object without feelings? But then again we're talking about a sadomasochist who tortures and maims people and sends children to slaughter. I just felt the author wasn't consistent with Theoden's view of his children. You can't say, "I don't usually share" and then the following book be handing them out like candy... unless the author is trying to portray him as some sort of hypocrite who, like so many humans, say one thing but do the exact opposite while still believing they're behaving like they initially claim.

Overall the book was awesome and I couldn't put it down... now I'm looking forward to continuing Dante's saga and hearing more of how things go with Deacon's new 'mate

Can there be too much sex?
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2016

If you like violent dominating vampires, torture and LOTS of M/M sex, you will love this author. But about this point in the series it starts to get to the point where you really want them to get on with the actual plot and all the sex and violence is sort of in the way. Because this author actually has a pretty interesting plot under all that sex. I know! who expects that? So I found I was actually getting bored with the sex scenes (which is so unlike me). I will say I liked the previous books in this series slightly better as they had a good balance going between telling the story and hot scenes of lust and dominance- and hope to get back to see if the series finds its equilibrium again in the next part

This is the second book in The New Haven Book Series
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2020
What can I say about this book of for this whole series well I started with Joel's story Chained in Darkness I'm not gonna lie this type of book is very hard for me to read . I had to stop and start a lot I just hated everybody except Noel . I hated what happened too him how he was betrayed and how he was turned/Embraced against his will but I kept going because I was hoping for a story in stead of all the over the top SEX . I get that because of their nature being the children of Theoden that they have to live a certain way and I understood that after the Author finally explained this . And the story got better and better after I found out about all the brother's their back story and what kind of men they where before they were embraced . Not only that but I understood were Theoden was coming from in the way he ran his family and city . And finally we get to see Noel evolve into the vampire that he will become . I'm actually looking forward too continuing this series and trust me I didn't think that I'd ever say that Lol

If you’ve made it through to this one, just grit your teeth and hang in there. Nick has promised that he’s working on the next one, and I for one, am dying to know what happens next! Nick isn’t kidding when he warns us that this is a serial series.

The Reluctant Retiree

Having fallen way too deep in love with the Castiello’s assassin, Akari Himura, Fabian “Burger” Murphy has to figure out how to get his club to approve his relationship. However, he’s getting pushback from everyone, from his older brother, to his father, telling him that he needs to break up with Akari. Time is running out for him to make his decision. Will he choose the one man in his life he can’t live without? Or the club that has given his very existence meaning?

Nothing and no one is ever out of Makade-Ma’iingan “Wolf” Sanders’ league. The president of the Chicago chapter of the Lords of Chaos has set his sights high, and they have landed on the Right-Hand Man of the Castiello family’s underboss, Demir Balik. Despite all the warnings to stay away, Wolf can’t. He loves the chase, it’s in his blood. But he may have pursued the wrong type of prey this time. Demir is a force of nature and Wolf finds himself in quite the predicament.

Vito “The Vise” Castiello has a lot on his plate right now. The takeover of a major city’s crime business being his biggest priority. However, the minx at his side is changing him little by little, giving him happiness in a way he’d never thought he’d experience. However, things get rocky when his lover, Zindel Esai, plays a game he’s not willing to participate in. Vito is a passionate man and wants what he wants, and that’s to be in control. But can The Vise loosen up just a bit to let his minx love him?

Prison is a lonely place, especially having been behind those walls for nearly five years. It doesn’t help when Tim “Tiny Tim” Davis has to see his club brother and prospect share a love he envies on a daily basis. One day, he gets a new cellmate, someone so stunning, that he leaves Tiny Tim speechless. Immediately, he knows that he wants this man, and has to have him. Luckily for TT, this vulnerable inmate needs someone to protect him, and that’s the hook he uses to reel the new fish in.
