Dead of Night by Emily Goodwin

Callie is a powerful witch, the only one in her estranged family. One day her sister begs her to come to her niece’s birthday party, a niece she’s never met. And because she misses her sister dearly she decides to do some recon to see if she can do it, emotionally speaking. As soon as she spots her brother though, her feet take her to the nearest bar where she meet Lucas. An age-old vampire.

Lucas is curious about Callie because her power rivals his own, and she keeps surprising him at every turn. They’re insanely attracted to each other and it doesn’t take too long for them to fall into bed together.

Meanwhile a big bad is killing witches, looking for “the half-breed”. But a half breed of what? Is it Callie? Why does the demon want this person dead?

This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I did really enjoy it. A fairly predictable storyline for me as it’s faintly reminiscent of another series I’ve read. Not quite as much smut as I expected either - after the first couple of sex scenes you don’t get anything other than a mention after the fact for the rest of the book.

An enjoyable read, felt like a quick one too. I’m intrigued to find out the answers to all of the unanswered questions.
