From the author of the Baba Yaga novels, a brand new series set in the same "addicting"* world, filled with wild magic, enchanting damsels, and the irresistibly daring men who serve the Baba Yagas...
The Riders are three immortal brothers who protect the mythical Baba Yagas. But their time serving the witches has ended—and their new destinies are just beginning...
Ever since a near-fatal mistake stripped Mikhail Day and his brothers of their calling to be Riders, Day has hidden from his shame and his new, mortal life in a remote cabin in the Adirondack mountains. But when a desperate young woman appears on his doorstep, he cannot resist helping her—and cannot deny how strongly he's drawn to her...
For generations, women in Jenna Quinlan's family have been cursed to give up their first born child to the vengeful fairy Zilya. When Jenna finds herself unexpectedly pregnant, she is determined to break her family's curse and keep her baby, even if it means teaming up with a mysterious and charismatic man with demons of his own...
To unravel the curse, Jenna and Day will have to travel deep into the Otherworld. But the biggest challenge of the journey might not be solving an ancient puzzle but learning to heal their own broken hearts...
From Goodreads:
The Riders: Three immortal brothers who kept the Baba Yagas safe, now stripped of their summons to protect. But fate is not finished with them—and their new callings are even more powerful...
Though his physical wounds have healed, Gregori Sun, the eldest of the Riders, remains in spiritual turmoil. His search for his mother, the one person able to heal his soul and save his life, is failing—until he crosses paths with a beautiful and fascinating librarian who might be the key to his salvation...
Ciera Evans's bookish ways are just a guise. The product of a difficult past, she has dedicated her life to saving lost teens—by any means necessary. She works alone, but when a dark, brooding stranger proposes they team up to solve both their problems, she is tempted—in more ways than one...
After Ciera and Sun's plans are derailed by dangerous enemies, they find themselves entangled in an ungodly affair—one that will force them to either find new strength together or be forever haunted by their pasts alone.
My Review:
Oh, yeah, I loved these books! Just like the previous series, I just devoured these books (I mean, I read 5 full length novels and 3 novellas in 3 days) and they were just so darned interesting! I loved learned more about the Riders, they were a big part of the first series, and yet, we didn't know much about them! So it was great to learn more about them, and watch them fall in love in these books!
All 3 of the brothers have scars, mental and physical, from the events of Wickedly Powerful. Day, because he fell for the bad guy's trap and was bait for his brothers, Sun, because he got captured, and could help save his brothers from pain. But meeting these ladies-and the adventures they had, helped them move on, which was really great!
Each book has a quest-type adventure. Charming, to find a way for Jenna to keep her baby, Divine, for Sun to find his mom. There's a lot going on in each book, with the personal problems, and the bad guys getting up to hijinks, which just makes them all the better to read!
I really hope that each brother gets a story, because they all deserve one. Now, there's just the final brother, which is the one I'm most worried we're not going to get a story of, because Goodreads doesn't have a page for a 3rd book, and there's nothing on the author's website that I can find! Though apparently it was marketed as a trilogy before Charming came out...so there is hope!
These books were just incredible, and I really, really hope that we get more!
