The award-winning Weird Girls urban fantasy romance series continues to
blow away modern fantasy and adventure fans with heart-stopping action
and romance. Centered around four unique and powerful sisters, it's time
for Emme Wird, the youngest sister, to step into the supernatural
spotlight.
Emme Wird, the healer and powerful telekinetic in the
Wird family, hasn't had the best of luck with males. While her sisters
have found their mates and forever loves, Emme has found males that are
better left as lost. Is a decent meal with polite conversation too much
to ask for? Yes, it is.
When a pack member that Emme has dinner
with is discovered dead and dismembered, it is up to Emme and her
werewolf friend, Bren, to solve the murder. But spine-tingling danger
and touches with evil have ways of bringing close friends closer.
Could
the male that Emme searches for be right in front of her? Or will evil
snatch him away from her, just as it did once before?
Touch of Evil, by author Cecy Robson, starts a new chapter in the Weird Sister series. (Amazon is calling this Weird Girls Touch). Touch of Evil begins Emme Wird's thread, but it also includes Bren Cooper who has spent most of his life being a rogue and friends with all four Wird sisters. According to my research, the timeline for this book takes place between Of Flame and Light and Of Flame and Fate. Emme as the youngest Wird sister is the compassionate one. She's a nurse, she's got powerful telepathic abilities, but unlike her sisters, she hasn't found her life mate yet.
Emme started playing the field and having lots of one-night stands that fizzle out quickly after feeling ignored by Bren. Soon after another date goes unfulfilled, Emme feels as though something dangerous is stalking her and heads for the only place where she believes she can be safe. Emme and her sisters have turned the world upside down since their arrival to the Lake Tahoe area. Bad guys see the sisters as a threat that needs to be taken care of before they can take over the world. The paranormal world sees Emme as the weak link in the family, but the only one able to save Celia if anything happened to her.
Therefore, they end up targeting Emme for elimination to get to Celia's unborn baby that is fated to stop evil and save the world. Bren is also one of the best trackers around. He is also bartender for a place called the Watering Hole where other paranormals hang out alongside humans. After Emme's one-night stand turns up devoured, and signs of dead bodies popping up across Nevada, Bren and Emme attempt to hunt down those responsible. Emme ends up being captured and nearly killed. But Bren isn't going to allow anything to happen to Bren. Not if he must dig his way into hell itself to bring Emme back to him.
Without indulging in any further spoilers, I will say that Bren and Emme have been dancing around each other for a long time now. It is time to put up or shut up or move on. What has been holding Bren back so long that he's never taken the next step? Is it because of Celia and her sisters? Is it because Bren's wolf is plain stubborn as a mule and can't see what's right in front of him? This book is fairly short and ends on a hopeful note. Yes, there's some action scenes involving both Emme and Bren. But there's also something added at the end that will make fans of this series happy.
