Wow!!! Just let me lead with that. Susan Mac Nicol has kicked magical butt with Double Alchemy. I will try not to be too detailed because of spoilers...I don't want to ruin anything.This book has it all. A very strong, passionate love affair between the lead characters Quinn and Cade that springboards Cade's introduction into a dangerous world of magic. Susan does an amazing job of creating a world inhabited by all sorts of magical creatures and gives it a wonderfully rich depth.I absolutely loved the Withinner idea. Taliesin is a truly fascinating character all on his own and by the end of the book I was wanting more and more of him.There's plenty of suspense and drama throughout the book as Quinn's people are being attacked and killed. Deviousness, betrayal magical smackdowns abound.Cade struggles to understand this enigmatic man he loves, knowing that because of his position in the magical world, Quinn will never be able to share everything with him.And Quinn...A man who has been making horrible, hard decisions since he was child. Tempered by those and shaped by the arrogance that his station requires he shows just how far he will go to protect his people...But most of all, just what he is capable of to save the man he knows is his soul mate.I can't wait for the next book. Susan said that we would have a HEA in this one to hold us until the next in the series and she delivered...But all the things that she has set up for the next book has me going crazy with curiosity....Cade is strong right now. The thought of how he could be when he comes into his heritage makes me drool....And when I think of him standing up to 'Mr I'm in Charge' Quinn.....I am crossing my fingers here Susan.* I received a copy from the author for an honest review.
