What the Fang?

What the Fang?

Sink your teeth into this irresistible forbidden romance from USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy about the vampire Warden of Charleston and the new-in-town witch who’s causing him all kinds of trouble… Willa Farrington’s magic is broken. Shunned by her coven for failing to pass the Summer Solstice Rite, Willa escapes to the one place no witch belongs – Charleston, a city that belongs to vampires. Determined to embrace her new life, Willa opens Cauldron Boil Books, and unexpectedly finds some friends among the vampires… Until one terrible night Willa ends up on the wrong side of a pair of fangs. Thankfully, her captor’s plan is ruined when Killian Constantine, the drop-dead gorgeous Warden of Charleston, shows up to save her. But just when Willa thinks she’s safe, Killian, rumored to be the most feared vampire in the city, furiously demands to know why she – a witch – telepathically called him for help. Intent on finding answers, the two embark on a journey to unravel the mystery behind Willa’s attack and their unusual connection. As they get closer to the truth, the fiery passion between them ignites. But their forbidden romance isn’t making them many friends, and just as Willa starts to think that her entire existence is a lie, deadlier forces come out of the shadows. She will need to believe in her malfunctioning magic, trust bloodthirsty vampires, and cross her fingers that she and Killian make it out together… and that neither end up dead.

I think this is my first paranormal book and I liked it. The premise was interesting and I loved the characters especially Ambrose! Reading his interactions with Willa and Killian were always a delight. The world-building in this book was easy to understand so I’m happy about that. I liked the history behind Willa’s family. It was something I didn’t expect. Especially reading that part towards the end. But while I loved the characters and the story, the pacing is quite fast. Or maybe too fast for my liking. I feel like a lot of things that happened in the second half of this book could have stretched into the second one, especially since a lot of them were revelations about Willa’s power. I wish we could have also seen more development in Willa Killian’s relationship. Like the pacing, that also happened too fast for my liking. Hoping their relationship could be fleshed out more in future books. ARC provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I flew through this but I felt like I was reading the skeleton of a story. It had a lot of potential. It was fast paced but lacking character development. I’m not a fan of instant love romance. It was very cheesy, the casual drop about magic birth control right before they had sex actually had me laughing. And then she just assumes they’re dating after sleeping together one time? It wasn’t realistic. That being said, I think this book was meant to be cheesy. AND Ambrose is my favorite character.
