Book Review – Bewitched, Bothered and Bitten by CC Wood

11/24/2014

Bewitched, Bothered and Bitten

Bewitched, Bothered & Bitten by CC Wood

Paranormal romance. 3rd in an interrelated series. Read in order.

I used to read a lot of paranormal books, but over the past few years I have moved away from the genre. But it’s really nice to get back to it occasionally, especially when you are looking for something different. The Bitten Series has always been a favorite of mine for a few reasons: A) It’s funny. B) It’s Hot. C) There is a group of fun girlfriends I love who *may* be based off of my friends and myself. D) It has been kind of paranormal ‘light’ without a lot of alternate world building.

Bewitched Bothered and Bitten was a bit more of a serious entry to the series. Where Donna’s book, Bite Me, was funnyĀ andĀ Ivie’s book, Once Bitten, Twice ShyĀ was hot as hell, this one is more serious and paranormally political. We are really getting into the politics of the Vampire/Werewolf/Witch relations. Some of the supernatural creatures, The Faction, want to take over the world, but our group wants to fight against them.

Kerry is a witch. A very powerful witch. She is kind of ostracized in the witch world because her father practiced black magic, but she is still part of the coven, and is named to be the next High PriestessĀ of the coven. The thing is, Vampires, Werwolves and Witches don’t really play well together. But Kerry’s two best friends are with Vampires, another one has some vibes with a werewolf, and Kerry is thrown into situations with them all the time. Finn, the super sexy vampire, seems to have gotten himself attached to Kerry, and though she tries to fight it, it keeps getting harder.

QUOTE MARKFor months he’d pursued me. The first time he came to me in a dream, I thought it was my sex-starved imagination desperate for some relief…”

But the dreams were more than dreams, they were connecting in sleep, and holy crap it was hot! And much as Kerry fought Finn, he continued to come back for more, teasing and challenging her until she gave in.

QUOTE MARKC’mon, Kerry. Surely, if you’re that unmoved by me, you could kiss me with no problem.”…
“I double dog dare you,” he whispered right before he kissed me.

As the successor to the highest position in the Coven, and one of the most powerful witches in the hemisphere, Kerry needed protection. Of course what does a good alpha male do? Force the girl to live with them for ‘protection’.

The rest of the story was more about the “prophecy” that they find, and how to fight against a super powerful vampire with an even more powerful warlock who is willing to use black magic.

CC seemed to put a lot of research into the witch part of the book. There were a lot of spells and magic, and it really all seemed to be well researched Wiccan spells and rituals (I don’t know that they are, but they seemed to be). To me a good paranormal book requires a really talented writer, because you have to buy into this whole alternate world the author is creating, and it has to feel real enough for you to suspend disbelief. CC does that very well in this book.

Though Bewitched, Bothered and Bitten started out super hot, the majority of the book was action and the mystery of the group solving the prophecy. Still, there were some good sexy scenes that CC writes so well.

QUOTE MARKI’m going to take you hard and fast, and there’s nothing you can do but lie here and take it.”

As Kerry finally gives into Finn, I really enjoyed her letting down her guard.

Bewitched, Bothered and Bitten

Likes:

  • I loved visiting with the girls again (but I wish there was more!)
  • I really liked Kerry.
  • Finn–total alpha badass, but totally takes care of his woman.
  • Great sex scenes.
  • Very well researched info on magic.
  • An exciting read.
  • I loved the teases throughoutĀ of Ricki and Shannon’s upcoming books.
  • Kerry was plus sized (I wish it was mentioned more).

Dislikes:

  • This was much more of a serious paranormal book rather than paranormal “light”. Lots of paranormal politics.
  • There was too much about the war and not enough about the romance.
  • I wish I saw the other couples more.

Rating: 4 stars, 4 Heat

stars_4

Flame_FOUR copy

The Down and Dirty:

While this isn’t my favorite of the series, I am still intrigued and enjoying it enough to look forward to Ricki and Shannon’s books. Bewitched, Bothered and Bitten didn’t have all the humor of the first book, or the hot sex of the second, but it has moreĀ excitement, and I am very impressed with the research and world building. This one is good for even the serious paranormal fan.

5 star read! (My 2nd this year) I don’t read a l 5 star read! (My 2nd this year)
I don’t read a lot of fantasy. I’m not really a Harry Potter fan and ACOTAR didn’t live up to the hype. But the hardcover of The Fourth Wing is so pretty! I wanted it, but I will not buy a book for my shelf that I haven’t read, and I just had a feeling The Fourth Wing by @rebeccayarros would be amazing. I almost DNFd when I realized it was about dragon riders, but gave it a chance and FELL IN LOVE. The 20+ hours went by in a flash and I couldn’t stop listening! Check out my detailed, spoiler-free review.

If you haven’t read @catherinecowlesauthor yet, If you haven’t read @catherinecowlesauthor yet, YOU NEED TO. Echoes of You is just another example of an amazing novel filled with love, mystery, suspense, family and romance. I loved the connection that the couple had and the mystery kept me on my toes.

The only reason I am not giving The Long Way Home The only reason I am not giving The Long Way Home by @harper_sloan a full 5 stars is because I didn’t re-read the Corps Security Series first. Had I done that, I would have been a blubbering, crying fool instead of just tearing up. Like Harper has said, The Long Way Home is the ending to the Corps Security Series that you didn’t know you needed, and it was SO WORTH THE WAIT. Now that Harper is back writing, I hope she begins a new series that won’t require me to remember so much., because I love her writing so much!

I love collecting foreign versions of my favorite I love collecting foreign versions of my favorite books!

I have gotten SO MANY messages thanking me for recommending my FAVORITE BOOK/AUDIOBOOK of 2022! Mary Jane by @jessicaanyablau was so amazing, especially in audio. This coming-of-age novel set in 1975 was different than what I usually read, and I so enjoyed seeing the 14-year-old sheltered heroine see what life is like nannying for a progressive family who happens to be hiding a rock star for the summer.

Mary Jane is the perfect summer read, especially if you grew up during this time, and the narration by @caitlin.kinnunen was absolutely outstanding.

I couldn’t recommend it more.

Thank you Jessica for this version of the book! I love it!

I couldn’t stop listening to The Perfect Marriag I couldn’t stop listening to The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose. The storytelling and narration kept me riveted despite all the ridiculous plot holes. I had such a hard time giving this a star rating because I really enjoyed the listen even though the story truly made no sense and could never even come close to happening in real life. Still, I will for sure be checking out more of Jeneva Rose’s books after reading this and watching her hysterical TikToks.
