Title: Death Wish<\/a> (Reaper Reborn<\/a> #1)
Author: Harper A. Brooks<\/a>
Genre: Paranormal, Urban Fantasy
My rating: 3 of 5<\/a> stars<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jade Blackwell is a reaper with an attitude and a problem with the job description. She knows what she is supposed to do, but has so much empathy for her reap-ees that she finds it hard to take their lives and escort them to the afterlife. Upper management isn’t too happy with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Death Wish is Charlene Harris meets Dannika Dark. I kept thinking of Dannika Dark’s Raven Black from Cross Breeds series in a Charlene Harris-type world. It works because this marriage creates two worlds in one where some humans luck out and know the horrible truth while most of the back story happens in a supernatural world that is begging for policing by a strong soul. Jade is just a hapless reaper, but she’s the only applicant at the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cast of characters is excellent. I love Kay. She’s my favorite. Cole, Sean, and Wyatt are okay, but you know men always get in the way of good storytelling =P.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Death Wish took me a couple of chapters to get into, but I didn’t want to put it down when the pace picked up. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good Urban Fantasy or are fans of the Paranormal genre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary advance copy of this book<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Harper A. Brooks:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n


Harper A. Brooks lives in a small town on the New Jersey shore. Even though classic authors have always filled her bookshelves, she finds her writing muse drawn to the dark, magical, and romantic. But when she isn’t creating entire worlds with sexy shifters or legendary love stories, you can find her either with a good cup of coffee in hand or at home snuggling with her furry, four-legged son, Sammy. She writes historical and paranormal romance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
