4 Stars/Hot: "Spells Cast in Shadow is a well-written book with captivating characters. This book includes the use of dark magic to manipulate lives, murder, intrigue and an amazing love story within a love story. The hero and heroine face many obstacles in discovering their love for one another. There are several plot lines developed within the story, some of which could have been expanded to add even more depth to this book. I hope Ms. McKeever will pick up the threads to tell the stories of Montana’s friend, Jason’s and that of Seth’s brother Endre to make this a series. The possibilities make my imagination soar! Seth and Montana struggle mightily to resist the lure of each other. Their resistance raises the heat level at every encounter until they surrender to the needs of their bodies, even if not acknowledging the desires of their hearts. Seeking to please themselves and each other physically, they please this reader with the passion they ignite. This book is one I’ll read again and again." —Ginger, Just Erotic Romance Reviews
4 Hearts: "Gracie McKeever has written a marvelous modern-day fairy tale, complete with a classic good vs. evil struggle of epic proportions. Because of her clever use of foreshadowing, the relationship between a human and a centaur is immediately believable. The sexual tension between Seth and Montana is so palpable that steam fairly rises from the computer screen. Her excellent prose brings both her characters and her settings to life in the reader’s imagination. While billed as erotic in nature, the erotic elements occur naturally in the flow of the story and are not extreme or overly explicit. This reviewer enjoyed this tale and looks forward to more from Ms. McKeever. Highly recommended!" —Leah, LoveRomancesandMore.com

Try it!!,

This review is from: Spells Cast in Shadows (Paperback)
With this baby, I really did enjoy the story...and the plot line...and the hero and heroine. And let's not forget all the other wonderful 'peoples'. The sex is great. But I just found something missing...I don't know what. (Scratchin' me noggin in confusion!! Wink!!) But I wouldn't want you to NOT buy this book just because I said that. Try it!! It is certainly different, wonderful concept (I love centaurs) and a beaut leading couple and sub characters. It ISN'T bad at all.

This review is from: Spells Cast in Shadows (Paperback)
More than two decades ago, the pony-man saved her from drowning to death. Although a child, Montana Freeborn intuitively knew the importance of keeping his existence a secret. Now the pony-man has returned, although he isn't exactly a pony-man anymore, with only two legs now.
Half-human and half-centaur, Seth Phoenix has always been fascinated by mortals - a fact that has caused him trouble several times before, and has now resulted in banishment from his realm to the live amongst the humans, in human form. When Montana's horse accidentally tramples him, she tends his injuries and shelters him in her own home. Little does Seth know that both his future and the fate of his mother lie with Montana Freeborn... Spells Cast In Shadows is the first book by Gracie C. McKeever I had the good fortune to read, and it will not be the last! With its powerful characters and an intense plot, it is easy to see why this book was the October Top Seller for Siren Publishing. Montana Freeborn is a beautiful heroine, inside and out. Her giving nature is evident in the way she treats others, the summer program she hosts for underprivileged children, and the way she views the world in general. Unfortunately, it is the innocent trust she places in those around her that makes her easy prey for the villain of the piece. Conversely, it is this same trust that allows her romance with Seth to progress at such a rapid pace. Seth Phoenix is a compelling hero, fierce and territorial as one would expect a centaur to be - especially one who is a member of the royal family. Of course, his noble nature, while admirable, also serves as a roadblock to his romance with Montana as he struggles to deny his feelings in order to protect her. I can wholeheartedly recommend Spells Cast In Shadows to any readers who love a good erotic fantasy with a beautiful romance and a suspenseful plot promising several twists! Connected Stories: Beneath the Surface: The Matchmaker, Book 1 Terms of Surrender: The Matchmaker 2 Manifest Destiny [The Matchmaker 3] (Siren Publishing) (This book is not part of The Matchmaker series, but contains crossover characters from 'Manifest Destiny'. While 'Manifest Destiny' can be easily comprehended and enjoyed without reading 'Spells Cast in Shadows', the story in 'Manifest Destiny' will be greatly enhanced by reading 'Spells Cast in Shadows' first.)

This review is from: Spells Cast in Shadows (Paperback)
Gracie C. McKeever's paranormal romance, Spells Cast in Shadows captures the love found between a human, Montana Freeborn, and a Centaur exhile from the world Sapphira, Seth Phoenix. After being cast into the Human World, Seth discoveres that the Black Elf placed an interference spell between him and his love, Montana. Throughout the book, McKeever does a wonderful job expressing the strength and intensity of the love and emotions between Seth and Montana. The way thier love is exemplified captivates the reader and makes you realize that there are such things as 'soul mates' and 'destiny'.
