The Druid Made Me Do It (Love Spell Paranormal Romance) [Mass Market Paperback]

Natale Stenzel (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 2008 | Series: Love Spell Paranormal Romance

Sometimes it's good to be guilty . . .

IT'S ALL FUN & GAMES

Dark, powerful, sexy Kane. He has many names, but in truth he is Robin Goodfellow, the one-time favored son of Oberon, King of Faery. For centuries he's worked his magic, seducing and pleasuring women as befits his puca nature. But Kane made one big mistake--punishing his brother for a crime he did not commit.

UNTIL SOMEBODY LOSES A GUY

Oh yeah, he also left Dr. Janelle Corrington after the most amazing night of her life. Their lovemaking was brief, intense...and a one-night stand. While she'd established what she thought was a soul connection that could occur only once in any lifetime, he was simply having sex. Why else would he have disappeared without a word? That's why the Druid circle's punishment for Kane's other crime is so delicious: for him to be Janelle's ward, to make amends to all he harmed, to take responsibility for his actions. Finally, Kane would have to take things seriously. And only true love would be rewarded.

The Druid Made Me Do It is the exciting sequel to Pandora's Box by Natale Stenzel!

Review

"THE DRUID MADE ME DO IT has a well-written if intricate storyline. This second book is a bit more serious and weighty than the more amusing PANDORA'S BOX, but they are both highly original and entertaining. They stand alone well enough, but reading them both would more than double the pleasure."

More About the Author

Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, Natale Stenzel endured your average childhood with two brothers to annoy and parents to baffle. She attended the University of Missouri-Columbia, earning bachelor's degrees in English literature and magazine journalism. At this logical point in time, she decided that being a reporter or technical writer did not appeal to her in the least. But she tried.

She moved to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, did some business and technical-type writing, married her adorable engineering geek, then quit the tech writing job to churn out babies. At home full time and uncomfortable in June Cleaver mode, she tried her hand at book-length fiction.

She spent several years shooting in the dark, writing her heart out only to face rejection after rejection. Then, after a move to lovely central Virginia, she sold her first book in July 2002 at a Romance Writers of America conference in Denver, Colorado (Forget Prince Charming, Harlequin Flipside, November 2003). In total, she published four romantic comedies with Harlequin Flipside.

Her fifth book, PANDORA'S BOX (to be released in February 2008) is the first in a series of funny paranormal romances to be published by Dorchester for its Love Spell line. Sequels are scheduled for release in August 2008 and February 2009.

5.0 out of 5 stars wacky amusing romp, August 3, 2008

This review is from: The Druid Made Me Do It (Love Spell Paranormal Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

Eight years ago Dr. Janelle Corrington met Kane. They had a heated one night stand and she suddenly believed in love at first sight as she thought she finally met her soulmate until he suddenly vanished in the morning.

However, Kane recently committed a bad error in judgment; for that misdeed Faerie King Oberon punishes his once favorite son who he knows as Robin Goodfellow, magical seducer of women. He names Janelle as his guardian while she is also granted special mental healing skills to compensate for her time. Kane's punishment besides having to bow to a woman is to atone for his sins with all his victims. To his shock, Kane, who has always been a 4F kind of guy falls in love with Janelle; but he sadly knows they have no future together.

The sequel to PANDORA'S BOX is as wacky as that tale was as Robin makes a return engagement, which means Janelle is in for plenty of "Pandemina". The amusing story line is fun to follow as the lead couple has plenty of tsuris especially with their apparent no future together. Fans of romantic fantasy will appreciate THE DRUID MADE ME DO IT as Robin Goodfellow learns a lesson about the real magic of love.

This review is from: The Druid Made Me Do It (Love Spell Paranormal Romance) (Kindle Edition)

This series is not your typical vampire/werewolf paranormal romance series. This is something completely different (at least to me) and I enjoyed it for it's freshness, fun characters, and snappy writing.

This book picks up right where "Pandora's Box" (book 1 in the series) leaves off. The dialogue between Janelle and Kane is hilarious and the tension between the two is palpable. The story moves along at a quick pace and by the time you are finished you are ready to find out what happens with the next pair of characters.

While you definitely can read this without having read the first book, I personally think they are better read in order. If there is any chance you might want to go back and read Mina and Riordan's story, then better to do it before reading this book, because part of what made "Pandora's Box" so much fun for me was a "surprise" in the story which won't be a surprise any longer if you read this book first.

If you've already read "Pandora's Box" and enjoyed it, you won't be disappointed with this book.

This review is from: The Druid Made Me Do It (Love Spell Paranormal Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

I picked this book up on a whim and was very pleasantly surprised. Good story, lots of action, nice amount of steam, good character development, good "world" development, good paranormal activity. I didn't read the first one but that didn't matter - in reading the book I couldn't tell that I was "missing" anything. I'm looking forward to other books in the series that deal with the other characters that we meet in the book since the story of the 2 main characters in this book gets finalized in a way that I'm satisfied with.
