Red-haired men, meanwhile are consistently associated with either the savage barbarian or the redheaded clown. Popular stereotypes of redheaded women range from the fiery-tempered vixen and the penitent prostitute-Mary Magdalene is often portrayed in art as a redhead-to the fun-loving scatterbrain Lucille Ball. The mere mention of red hair conjures vivid images and provokes strong reactions. ![]() ![]() ![]() Thankfully, my mom was able to snag a copy, and I once again read it in one day. To be honest, I didn’t even know that there was a sequel until I found it while searching on Amazon. It was that good! Once I picked it up, I could not put it down. I read The Romeo and Juliet Code in ONE AFTERNOON. My Thoughts: Disclaimer: It is really hard to write about this book without revealing some of the key details in the first book. ![]() Has Derek’s new father come to take him away…or is there something even more sinister happening in Bottlebay, Maine? ![]() Then a man claiming to be Derek’s true father arrives, and soon he’s asking all sorts of strange questions.

She hated the big gloomy house she was to live in. Summary: When Flissy Bathburn’s parents first dropped her off in Bottlebay, Maine, she hated everything about it. ![]() ![]() ![]() There were so many questions that propelled the story forward & kept you guessing, along with the amazing fights with the demons, this story was truely unique. The twists & turns had me guessing at every moment & by the end I was stunned with how it all played out… but it all made perfect sense! It was also a story about a sister relationship & female friendship, along with the FMC finding her place in the world.īut the best part… nothing was EVER told! everything was shown to you through action - including the magic. The demons written in this story were their own masterpiece, they were similar to ones we all know but had enough of a spin on it that they all felt completely unique. There were genuine moments of thriller / horror scenes playing out in my mind while reading & I was on the edge of my seat. ![]() I felt like I was watching a movie most of the time with the descriptions - especially the fight scenes with the demons! It was like watching a female The Witcher. This story took me completely by surprise! I was hooked with the initial description - a witch who was a long foretold beauty & saviour of all witchkind is left horribly disfigured & shunned by her people, now hunts demons with her sister.Īnd while, Yes, this is where this books starts - & what it is about - it is SO much more than that! If you like a gritty world with a true bad ass FMC then this is the book for you! ![]() 6/8/2023 0 Comments Unmasked by the marquess![]() ![]() And he certainly shouldn't be thinking of all the disreputable things he'd like to do to the impertinent scamp.
