With a witch conclave, open to other magical races this time to organize, the council is adamant that Syd should get her marriage over and done with. The problem is which of her suitors to choose? In the mean time the conclave presents the perfect opportunity for the Brotherhood to strike.Enforcer is yet another Hayle Coven novel that I simply couldn't put down. Although Syd is between a rock and a hard place where her impending marriage is concerned, the author doesn't spend too much time describing Syd's anxiety. Apart from a nightmare or two, a few thoroughly poignant moments with Quaid, and the odd stray thought about who to choose as her life partner, Syd gets on with her never-a-dull-moment existence. Fortunately the drama surrounding the conclave distinguishes the men from the boys for Syd.The snarky, often hilariously funny teen Syd used to be, has become a more serious, sometimes irritable, no-nonsense adult with a strong sense of responsibility. In this book she is forced to betray an old friend, has to join forces with an enemy, and must make the very difficult choice of future husband.With Liander Belaisle's influence penetrating every magical race like a really nasty computer virus, Syd and those close to her must be extra vigilant to spot and eradicate such influence immediately. Although she has her friends and family to support her, as well as the vampire, sidhe and demon parts of her soul giving their input, Syd must make her own decisions while not being driven crazy by said input and support.In Enforcer battles are fought, lives are lost, and here and there people are released from Belaisle's insidious influence. This however seems to be just the beginning of what must become the ultimate fight between the Brotherhood and all those who will perish should the Brotherhood prevail.Anybody who likes paranormal fiction with a touch of the romantic and lots of action will love this book. I would, however, advise readers to read the first seventeen books in the Hayle Coven series first before reading Enforcer. (Ellen Fritz)
