Cover Description:

Wanting her was one thing. Keeping her was another…

Serenity Danssaert was already in way over her head. Not even her MI6 training or her powers as one of the seven Pleiades witches is going to save her sister. Then Alexi Jovec shows up. A secret operative working for unknown forces, he’s impossibly sexy and dangerous…and the guy who bailed on Serenity after a red-hot, racy night.

So bonding to him as her destined—the One—is so very wrong.

While Alexi’s need to own Serenity—body, soul, and beyond—is nearly unbearable, it’s also forbidden. He’s the last man who could ever be her destined. Besides, Hades’s right-hand man cannot bond with a chosen Pleiades witch. He may be the one man who can protect her, but she can never be his to keep.

Read on for my thoughts on His Witch To Keep.  No true spoilers, promise.

His Witch To Keep is a twisting journey of special powers, magic, intrigue, mystery, and a romance between two people that goes against every rule either one has ever known.

Fro reasons known only to Alexi, he has been keeping tabs on Serenity.  There is the obvious attraction, hell they spent one scorching night together that he’ll never forget.  But they are forbidden to be together, he gets that but it doesn’t mean he has to like it or to stop watching over her – even from a distance if necessary.

Serenity is determined to rescue her kidnapped sister.  She knows that this attempt is more than she has ever faced before.  But she won’t back down not when her sister’s life is on the line.  With Alexi’s help she can get answers and action – and perhaps the love of her life, if he ever explains why he left her so abruptly.

I enjoyed His Witch To Keep very much.  Because of the plot twists and turns I don’t want to give much away.  This is a couple that is destined to be together, even if they have to fight the fates to make it happen.  The sparks between them fly off the page.  The mystery and intrigue of this novel captures your imagination.  You’ll want answers and maybe you’ll get some while even more questions are revealed.

This was one of those stories that I resented the time lost when I had to put it aside for real life.  While this is the second novel in the Keepers of the Veil series, in my opinion you do not have to have read the first one before diving into His Witch To Keep.  Of course, reading a series n order is always the best way to immerse yourself in their universe… but you could read this one and then backtrack to the first if it catches your interest.

If you love mystery, intrigue and a bit of magic mixed into your romantic reads, then His Witch To Keep should be on your reading list.
