Carissa Andrews
(A Diana Hawthorne Supernatural Mystery, #2)
Publication date: July 23rd 2021
Genres: Adult, Mystery, Urban Fantasy
For as psychic as she is, shit goes sideways far too often around Diana Hawthorne.
Diana now has everything she ever wanted–her memories, and the soul mate she didn’t realize she was missing. There’s just one problem… the old gods expect her to make amends for her absence. And her work starts now.
But time lost at the oracle isn’t the only thing she has to atone for. Her friend Demetri was stripped of his powers–and it was all her fault. If she could just set things right, she’d feel a whole lot better about moving forward. Unfortunately, Demetri wants nothing to do with her and knows exactly how to keep her out of his head.
To make matters worse, in the age of social media, Diana’s abilities have gone viral. People from all over the world are clambering to get on her books. One case, in particular, hits her radar and despite herself, she can’t shake it. A 14-year-old boy is wrapped up with a deadly governmental agency and he’s scared to death. And he should be–they want to weaponize his power.
Torn between what was and what is, Diana struggles to fully embrace who she’s becoming. Will she be able to help Demitri and make things right? Or will her new role mean leaving the past behind?
Calling fans of KF Breene, Shannon Mayer, and Shayne Silvers! If you like snarky-fun humor, gripping supernatural scenes, and twists that leave you spellbound — then you will LOVE Carissa Andrews’ world built especially for Diana Hawthorne.
He laughs softly. “Afraid of the wrath of Ren?”
I nod. “Something like that. I need to tread lightly with him or there will be a meltdown situation. I can only handle one unhinged assistant at a time.”
“Fair enough,” he says, reaching a hand out for me.
I accept it, stepping closer to him. He wraps his arms around my torso, sending a wave of heat through any part of me not yet vibrating with anticipation. My breath hitches as I melt into him, and I’m suddenly extremely glad he can’t read my mind.
Since my connection opened to him, I’ve been actively working to dampen my gifts with him, so he has the privacy of his own thoughts. It was hard at first because I desperately want to know what he’s thinking and feeling. But I’ve found I’m almost as addicted to the mystery of not knowing, too.
I rest my head in the crook of his neck, inhaling his natural scent, burning it into my memory. For a brief moment, I’m cocooned in his embrace, the outside world quiet and peaceful in a way I’ve not felt for eons.
He sighs contently, his hand rubbing circles across my lower back.
“Amara—Diana… Shouldn’t you be on your way? I’m certain you mentioned something about ten minutes, and while I’m no expert on this modern time, I’m fairly sure you’ve gone well past that for whomever you’re meant to meet,” Kyros says through a crack in the front door.
“Thanks, Kyros. I’ll keep that in mind,” I say, refusing to open my eyes or make a move.
“Honestly, how you’ve managed to survive without me, I cannot understand. You need someone who can keep you in line and on time,” he says, tsking under his breath.
“And on that note,” I say, pushing back to a stand.
Blake’s eyes open lazily, and a lopsided grin appears on his face. “Old man, you certainly know how to spoil a moment.”
Kyros huffs.
“Go inside. I’ll be back as soon as I can and we can introduce Kyros to Aiden,” I say, running my hand down Blake’s arm. The firm muscle of his tricep is enough to plunge my thoughts right back in the gutter.
For the briefest of moments, I can’t help but wonder if he’s as good in bed as he is at kissing. This version of him certainly has some moves he didn’t have before. Whenever we get around to it, I can’t help but fantasize about what new tricks he’ll have up his sleeves… Or lack of sleeves?
I squeeze his arm lightly.
Mmmm, definitely lack of sleeves.
