Never read this author before, and I really liked her way of writing a strong heroine. Maybe my favorite thing about this romance is Tegan: a wounded heroine who's not a doormat. She gives this light, easy read a nice backbone. She's a survivor, a woman unafraid to fight and to throw a punch. I really appreciated that, because even with her past and knowing what evil's after her, this heroine's not just waiting around for the hero to come save her.Tegan's capable, tough, and ready to fight for herself, and for the hero. He's surprised by that, but I loved it. Gabe's a demon slayer, and I really loved that Buffy/Supernatural vibe to him. The black trench, the medieval weapons, his charm and sexiness all worked for me. He was fun and sexy to read. He's not an overbearing alpha type; he is protective, but he's also willing to listen to the heroine. She had his back, and he had hers, and that was a sexy combination at work and in the bedroom.The h/H do have a few steamy moments, not erotic, but I think it's more about this couple's connection and that building up of romance between them. It was sweet and believable, and I was happy to see the author put an epilogue there for them.Demons, witches and interesting Welsh lore, not to mention that sweet hero and his kickazz heroine, made for a fun, easy PNR read. It's light paranormal, not too heavy, but does bring good action, fighting and bloodshed, some humor, and the kind of gore that has a bit of camp to it. Good and fun, and with a heroine just as sweet and tough as the hero!
