Book Description:
Forget nude-dancing Wiccans, forget Samantha from 'Bewitched', forget the cackling green hag in the Wizard of Oz. Real witches are nothing, NOTHING like this. For years, real witches have hidden their powers, afraid of being persecuted. They have integrated so well into the community, you could have a witch living right next door, and never know about it. Take Paige, for instance. Just an ordinary twentysomething, runs her own website design company, worries about her weight, wonders if she'll ever find a boyfriend. Okay, so she has an adopted daughter, Savannah, who wants to raise her mother from the dead. And who is being stalked by a telekinetic demon and a renegade sorceror. But other than that -- really ordinary life. That is, until the neighbours find out who she is, and all hell breaks loose. Literally.

I have to be honest...this was a book I kept putting down in favor of another, and eventually, I did pick back up and finish. My opinion of the book improved towards the end. Oh well, I did read the whole thing, but I won't be reading another by this author.

Well....I wasn't so sure about this at the start but it picked up the pace and was a good read....so stick with it!

This book is part of a series. While I'm sure that you'll be able to enjoy the book by itself, I really recommend you read the first two books (Bitten and Stolen) first.

While I loved the first two books in this series, I didn't like this one. This is about Paige, the witch we meet in the second book. Paige's mother has died and now Paige wants to take her place as leader of one of the world's most powerful oganizations-The American Coven of Witches. People who like stories about witches love this one.

It took me a little while to get into this book because I found myself really missing Elena's voice. But once I truly gave Paige a chance, I found that I did actually like her (she had been a bit annoying in Stolen) and enjoyed reading her story.

I wanted to like this story. I have a few online friends who recommended it. It wasn't terrible but I have to say I was a bit disappointed. Paige's character seemed vapid. It just didn't appeal to me. Savannah seemed like a brat. Maybe that's really how teenagers act now but she would have gotten a firm boot in the back side. And I'll admit it may have been because I couldn't get invested in the characters, the story line seemed to drag a bit and just seemed unoriginal.

I love Kelley Armstrong's books. Love them. I'm fascinated that she can do witches so well, as she does in this novel, when she started off with the best werewolf novel I've read (Bitten). Highly recommend.

Paige Winterborne was always either too young or too rebelious to succeed her mother as leafer of one of the world's most powerful elite organizations-the American Coven of Witches. Now that she is 23 and her mother is dead, the Elders can no longer deny her....
Great Book!!! I Love Kelley Armstrong!!!

Paige Winterbourne is the new leader of the American Coven of Witches now that her mother is dead, and she is having enough trouble with that, and with trying to raise 13 year old super-powerful novice witch Savannah Levine. Now a sorcerous Cabal is trying to demand custody of Savannah. The Coven is too scared of being found out to help her, but along comes mysterious young sorcerer Lucas Cortez, begging to help out... Third of the Women of the Otherworld books.

Intriguing characters, swift action, and enough humor to leaven the often-dark and scary events.

Alicia S. (I enjoyed this book, not as much as the 1st in the series (Bitten) as it did have a tendency to drag in some spots. Overall a good book though!
Katie S. (I was completely hooked into this series by the first 2 books about Elena. I wasn't sure if I would be as excited about Paige, but I was not disappointed! Kelley Armstrong does such a wonderful job with her characters. Lucas and Paige keep it smart, sassy and steamy!
Melissa (At first, I had a bit of trouble getting into the book. Most likely because Paige wasn't one of my favorite characters, but after a quick few chapters, I became interested in her life. I liked that she reexamined her view on good and evil and decided to chose for herself. I found myself really enjoying this book more than I first thought.
Karina F. (I enjoyed her werewolf focused books better.
Christine H. (This was the first Kelley Armstrong book I read. I loved the characters,the interaction. I have nothing bad to say about this book. It was awsome. I definetly will read more of her books.
Enjoyed the book, but not as much as Bitten and Stolen. Still a very good "read".
