Book Review: A Glow of Star & Dusk (The Watchers #1) by Eve. L. Mitchell

Hi Cara,

Today on my blog I am reviewing A Glow of Star & Dusk by Eve. L. Mitchell. This is the first book I have read by Eve. 

 

Synopsis

One psychic. Six demons. And a whole lot of trouble.


I am a typical, though admittedly anti-social, woman who lives alone in the rural Highlands of Scotland. I also happen to be a clairvoyant who can summon the dead. It’s a pity the souls I see didn’t give me a heads-up, nor did I glimpse my own future on the night six demons came hunting for me.

Their leader believes I am a witch and refuses to let me go until I have performed a spell to lift a blood curse. A spell I do not understand and one that I cannot read. But does he listen? No. Is he infuriating? Yes. Is he hotter than hell? Well…obviously.

Being thrust into the world of demons is terrifying. I mean, they travel with hellhounds, and they’re not the only demons hunting me either. Can I trust any of them? My once boring life is in their hands, and I’m in over my head.

Fighting my ever-growing attraction to the arrogant demon leader is hard enough let alone learning to use powers I never knew I had. But I am Star Elizabeth Archer, and all I know is that I need to learn, because a whole lot of trouble is coming my way. Fast.

Opinion

A Glow of Star and Dusk is a fun, swear filled romantic urban fantasy.

The leading lady is Star, the way that she reacts to the demons bringing danger and drama makes me like her. As she reacts like I would have done, with fear, anger and a whole lot of swearing. Some of her outburst are funny makes me laugh as she doesn't think before she speaks. 

Star and the reader if left in the dark as the demons aka The Watchers aren't completely honest. Even by the end of the book I still wasn't sure what the motives are. I wish the next book was out now as I need to know what going to happen.

The Demons are an interesting bunch, all of them very different. Some I liked more than others. Sam is the leader of this band of brothers. He runs hot and cold, I am not sure what to make of him.

Overall an enjoyable read and a series that I plan to continue reading. 

My rating for A Glow of Star & Dusk is 4 out of 5.
