BLURB:

A hitman and a fae walk into a café…

Callum always gets the job done—whether he likes it or not—but this job isn’t like any other. The target’s too young, too pretty, and too appealing for comfort, and the clients are offering more threats than cash. And either the target poisoned his hot chocolate or he’s going crazy, because now magic stores and wizard-looking dudes are appearing out of nowhere. It’s really not Callum’s day.

Linden’s on the run, and the human realm’s a good place to hide from evil sorcerers who think Linden’s the answer to a prophecy. But his enemy has found a way to send a very human and very dangerous assassin after him—a man who could kill Linden with one hand. Linden should be terrified, but his knees go weak for all the wrong reasons.

When Linden’s family is taken hostage, spending the night with Callum ought to be the last thing on his mind, but Linden can’t resist the chance to fulfill his deepest fantasies before sacrificing his own life. Callum knows he should walk away—it’s not his fight. But the beautiful fae is under his skin and now protecting Linden and his family feels more important than his own survival. A human learning to feel. A fae learning to trust. Can two worlds merge into one true love?

Brought to Light is part of the Magic Emporium Series. Each book stands alone, but each one features an appearance by Marden’s Magic Emporium, a shop that can appear anywhere, but only once and only when someone’s in dire need. This book contains explicit scenes, a magic flashlight, a prophecy that doesn’t quite work out the way anyone expects, and a guaranteed HEA. 

REVIEW:

If there was ever a story out there with a character that you love to hate….lol. It’s such a good little story and it just adds to the magic that is this series, but trust me when you read this, you are going to want to choke Callum a lot. 

My favorite, of course, in this is Linden. He’s just the sweetest soul you’ll ever meet. He’s just trying to live his life. Stuck in a world he really doesn’t know, away from his friends and family, and from the way it seems, everyone is trying to kill him. I feel for him so bad. Then he has to deal with Callum, who is the ultimate butt. I understand he has a job to do and is supposed to do it. And is threatened to do what he has to do. It’s a complicated situation for both of them.

But still. Linden didn’t deserve to deal with what he had to. And even with Callum saying he was now going to protect him, he still acted like such a butt to him. It wasn’t Linden’s fault. But I do love that Callum has some morals. He knew right off the bat something wasn’t right. He knew that as sweet as Linden was, there was no way he could be the bad guys he normally dealt with. It wasn’t in Linden’s nature. He doubted Linden would hurt a fly, much less anything else. 

I love that Linden was getting under his skin as well. Linden was into Callum, despite his attitude, from day one. And I love that Callum is finally starting to get a clue that there’s more to life then what he’s been doing. And that maybe, just maybe, there could be something different out there for him. Something that involved a beautiful pale skinned Fae with a love for life and that leaks sunshine wherever he goes.
