Witches with Benefits

By: Amanda M. Lee

Narrated by: Meghan Kelly

Freya Holmes is unique in an already eccentric city.

New Orleans may be a paranormal mecca but even in a world where every type of shifter and witch is commonplace, a vampire-witch hybrid is something to worship … and fear.

Freya has never been interested in her parents’ opulent world. She finds her power in magic, which is why she formed Nightshade Detective Agency in the first place. She’s interested in helping people … even when that help might come at the cost of her life.

Knox Cullen grew up on the poor side of New Orleans. His shifter genes allowed him to climb out of poverty and embrace a certain lifestyle as a paranormal bounty hunter. He can take a punch and throw one. He’s not ready for Freya, though.

When a local mobster ends up dead and the culprit appears to be a supernatural assassin, both Freya and Knox are on the case. Unfortunately, they have no intention of working together and two hard heads don’t make for a soft landing.

Freya has her hands full. In addition to Knox, who is hiding something big, there’s a paranormal investigation unit seeking a partnership that takes advantage of her hard work and their impressive reach. The Legacy Foundation has quite the reputation, as do the two people—Charlie and Jack—who approach her with an offer she might not be able to refuse. Can she trust them? Can she trust anybody?

The clock is ticking. Freya needs to save the French Quarter. Sadly, she might lose herself in the process.

The mix of old and new.

I really enjoyed the story and I like the new characters however, it was so comforting seeing old characters (who feel like friends) come into the storyline. I am already excited for the next book.

LOVE this new series!

This was such a great book & I loved getting to see Charlie & Jack again. The characters are all interesting and I’m really looking forward to the rest of their adventures.

An Amazing Start to a New Series

Amanda M. Lee has the magical ability to know when to end, intertwine, and collaborate between new and old series. You get enough of the old characters as she brings in new ones, always with mystery, intrigue, and foreshadowing for what's to come. Some ideas stay the same as she brings everyone in her books together for a greater good. The cliff hangers are enough to leave you chomping at the bit for the next piece in the giant jigsaw puzzles that links all her characters together. From the Winchesters to Freya and her superb ability to create so many books in a year I am always entertained. As with any new series there is always a slow burn romance, unlike TV series that flop once the couples get together, Lee shows real character development as the couples grow together and navigate what magical mayhem is thrown their way. Always an exciting tell of good vs evil winning.

Another fantastic series by Amanda M Lee

It was a great read, and I love the fact that Charlie Rhodes is back. I can not wait to see how she integrates other characters from her books into this series.

Great new character

Loved the new & old characters! Story was smooth & moved quickly. So excited about Charlie & Jack finally getting to New Orleans!
