Crystal Amalie LaFarge, a Level Five
Mage and a member of SPIT, the State’s Paranormal
Investigative Team, has come up against something she’s
never encountered before. No, it’s not ghouls as the title
suggests. Nor is it ghosts, boogie men, or other monsters.
Two powerful men want to share their bed with her. Her
biggest fear? What parts go where…
Ulrich is a dark-haired, scary Level
Eight Mage who’s looking for Crystal to augment his powers.
Police Captain Brian Teague Booker is a sun-streaked Level
Two Mage who’s had the hots for Crystal for some time, but
has been afraid to tell her that threesomes are really what
he wants.
All three must learn to combine their
powers, not only in the bedroom but to fight evil. In this
tale, it’s Lothar, a powerful mage and owner of the bar, The
Enchantress Club, who is stealing energy and property from
both the living and the dead. Brian’s twin sister, Diana, is
caught up in his snare and it’s up to the new Triad to save
her.
Yummy cover art that actually applies to the story being
told, two sexy men into each other and the heroine, and a
plot suitable for a short story format equals mucho grande
pleasure. The title Ghouls really does little
to reflect this tale’s content. I enjoyed Kacey Smith’s
voice, which reminded me of early Laurell K. Hamilton’s
Anita Blake, though I’d say Ms. Smith’s threesome scenes are
better crafted. Some of the police elements are a bit light,
but then the story really isn’t being advertised as a crime
drama. All in all, this is a swift read that’ll leave you
wishing Ms. Smith was into epic-sized erotic novels. |
