Book Reviews of Witch Fire (Elemental Witches, Book 1)

Book Review: Jack and Mira
Summary: 4 Stars

This is the first series I have read that featured witches; it is also the first book I have read written by Anya Bast. I decided to pick it based on a free bookmark I received advertising the 4th book in this series, Witch Fury. The books are in this order Witch Fire (Elemental Witches, Book 1), Witch Blood (Elemental Witches, Book 2), Witch Heart (Elemental Witches, Book 3) and Witch Fury (Elemental Witches, Book 4). I have so far only read Witch Fire, but I am picking up the other 3 tonight. These books are for adults. The sexual tension is intense, and the scenes are very descriptive.

Recently divorced, waitress, Mira Hoskins finds herself daydreaming about the blue-eyed stranger during the busy shift at Mike's Diner. After divorcing her ex-husband Ben Williams she had promised herself she was avoiding relationships for at least a year; Ben was unfaithful many times including with Trixie, his physical therapist. Working at the diner allows her to save money to go back to school, and finish her psychology degree - so that she doesn't have to be a professional waitress for the rest of her life. The blue-eye stranger, Jack McAllister, was having his own fantasies - he had underestimated the natural attraction between fire and air. But Mira is everything he shouldn't want: (1) someone to commit to, (2) nice, and (3) the boss's first cousin.

After being knocked out when her splintered apartment door hit her in the head - she awakes to find the blue-eyed stranger from the diner hovering over her, trying to reassure her. The 2 guys that busted down her door are unconscious on the floor in the hall. At the age of 10 Jack had rejected his father, William Anderson Crane, because he witnessed his father sacrifice 4 witches - including Mira's mother. At the age of eighteen he joined the Coven, the governing authority of witches. The Coven's leader is Thomas Monahan; he is Jack's Boss & Mira's first cousin (Her mother & his father are siblings). The Coven was contacted by Mira godmother, Annie Weber, after she received a disturbing phone call. Now Jack must protect Mira from the same band of warlocks, the Duskoff Cabal, which killed her parents. Of course Mira just thinks he is insane as he explains it all to her - until her godmother confirms. Mira is still not convinced, but it takes one kiss from Jack to change her mind. She can feel the power stirring within her - reaching out to him.

Other minor characters: Stephen Faucheux - William Cranes adopted son; Ingrid Harris - Thomas's right hand; Douglas - manages the Coven house in Chicago.

~~ An excerpt from Witch Blood is found at the end of this book ~~

Summary of Witch Fire (Elemental Witches, Book 1)

After a chaotic marriage and a rough divorce, all Mira Hoskins wants is stability and normality. But when sexy Jack McAllister enters her life, she discovers that what you want isn't always what you need.

Jack is a powerful witch with the ability to command fire and is anything but normal. As the head of a security detail for The Coven, a national organization that governs national witches, Jack has been assigned to watch over Mira. She is a natural born witch with the ability to call the air. And although she is unaware of her talent, a group of renegade witches has discovered her existence and are determined to steal her power--and her life.
