Blurb
Book 1 of the Telepathic Clans Saga.The transition between teenager to university to graduation is difficult and confusing for everyone. As an orphan and a prodigy who entered college at sixteen, harboring secrets she dares not reveal, Brenna Morgan’s journey is more complicated than most. Then one evening she stumbles across a young man who promises to answer all her questions if she’ll trust him.
The history of the Clans, called the Sidhe by the Irish, stretches back to antiquity. The Goddess blesses Her people with 25 Telepathic Gifts. In addition to Telepathy, the Gifts include command over Air and Fire, Telekinesis and Teleportation. In over 2,500 years, She has never bestowed more than 15 Gifts on a single person.
Brenna’s life isn’t the same after she discovers her unusual and mysterious heritage. In addition to being a telepath, Brenna learns she has the Succubus Gift.
That’s just the beginning of her problems. Someone is stalking her. Then there’s the tall, dangerous woman who shadows her and hints a Goddess has linked them. And what is she going to do with a handsome, charismatic, womanizing man she knows she should avoid?
Some days a girl just wants to pull the covers over her head and stay in bed -- with a willing young man of course.
Urban Fantasy with a dash of romance. The Succubus Gift is a completely different take on the succubus myth. Beautiful women and hot men in a world with a hidden telepathic subculture.
My Review: I absolutely loved this book! It was so different than so
many of the stories out at the moment. I love paranormal, and I'm always
looking for something new and fresh in the paranormal genre. We first meet Brenna, orphaned as a child,
and now an adult, when she is following someone whom she can’t get a read
on. You see Brenna is different. She can read people. But that’s not all. She finds out that she has more and more “talents”
as the story goes on. Talents are
basically magical gifts. There are 25
known magical gifts, and Brenna is the first person to ever have more than
15.
So back to what I was saying, Brenna follows the young man she can’t
get a read on, and rescues him from the people seeking to hurt him. Through this encounter she discovers the
family she never knew she had, as well as finds out more about her talents,
including the fact that she is a Succubus.
Through all of this, though Brenna has moments of insecurity over her
body (she’s not a size 2 – yay! A real woman), she stays strong and his kick
ass.
I love her new found family.
They are such a tight-knit, loyal group that would do anything for each
other. They are fierce and protect their
own. Through her family, Brenna meets
Collin, another talent, but a major womanizer.
Can Brenna learn to trust Collin, or better yet tame him? Find out and read Succubus gift.
Succubus gift is well written.
The characters, including the minor ones are well developed. The book is really something special. So if you’re looking for something different
and exciting.

Bio
I write
books combining Adult Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, and Science Fiction. I
believe in fiction as an escape, with devastatingly beautiful women and
incredibly sexy men.
In my
books, you will find characters with psychic abilities, such as telekinesis and
telepathy, and a completely different view of a succubus than you've ever
encountered before.
I made
silver and turquoise jewelry for almost a decade, ended up in nursing school,
then took a master's in business. Along the way I worked in construction, as a
newspaper editor, and somehow found a career working with computers.
I love
the outdoors, especially the Rocky Mountains. I've skied since high school,
with one broken leg and one torn ACL to show for it. I've hiked and camped all
my life. I love to travel, though I haven't done enough of it. I've seen a lot
of Russia and Mexico, not enough of England. Amsterdam is amazing, and the
Romanian Alps are breathtaking. Lake Tahoe is a favorite, and someday I'd like
to see Banff.
I have a
very significant other, two cats and two Basset Hounds. I'm currently living in
Baltimore, nine blocks from the harbor, but still own a home in New Mexico that
I see too infrequently.
