Witches of Bourbon Street (Jade Calhoun Series Book 2) [Kindle Edition]

Deanna Chase (Author)

Book Description

Jade Calhoun was never fond of her empath abilities. Now she's discovered she has another gift she'd rather not unwrap--magic. But when her mentor, Bea, becomes gravely ill and insists Jade's the only one who can help, she's forced to embrace her witchy side.

It's too bad she spent a decade shunning the magical community and never learned to harness her powers. Because time's run out. A trapped spirit has revealed a clue to Jade's long-lost mother. The resident angel has gone rogue and disappeared with Jade's boyfriend, Kane. And if that wasn't enough, her ex appears to be possessed.

To save any of them, Jade will need to find a way to control her inner white witch--without succumbing to black magic. Otherwise, she'll lose everything...including her soul.

Deanna Chase really pleased me with her first book on this series so much so that when I heard of this second book and that there was a chance to read it out there I went on the hunt to find it. When I did I was so pleased to find that I was not going to be disappointed. Though it has it's spots of romance the scenes are always tastefully done and leave one waiting for the next, but the book does not just revolve around that. Something that to many supernatural romance books have a tendency to do they often just loose sight of the concept that they first start with and leave you wondering what the point of it all was. This is why I rave about this author she has yet to do this to me and makes me keep turning the pages. I stay up at night when I start her novels just to finish them. For that I have to thank her.

We pick up in this book a time later after the first book of Jade , she's still going strong with Kane and she's happy, Bea has started trying to train her in the white magic after finding out that Jade is a very strong white witch. It would be a lot easier if Jade would just give in and learn instead of being so adamant of hating magic and wanting nothing to do with it. She has a good reason for her hatred but it's something she's faced with getting over especially if she wants to save her family, friends and life once again as Jade has a run in with Meri a demon that's hell bent on revenge and doesn't care who she uses or who gets in her way.

Once again Deanna Chase has out done herself and I can not wait for the next book in this series and just how it will play out.

3.0 out of 5 stars Crash Course in Witchcraft October 17, 2012

By Bitsy Bling Books VINE™ VOICE

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

Witches of Bourbon Street is a fast-paced read, heavy on plot, but slacking in depth. There is a lot going on in the second installment of the Jade Calhoun series. The pages are packed full of rip-roaring paranormal catastrophe, which will whip you through New Orleans at record speed. Considering the location of the story, I would have preferred if more attention were given to setting and characterization. There are some complex struggles taking place and at times, it felt too glazed over. I think this had to do more with the pacing than anything else for me--the reader is literally taken to Hell and back in 48 hours. Well, we don't actually get to go, but the characters are sucked in and out...everyone from witches to angels, to the average guy. Despite missing a beat on dimensional depth, Deanna Chase still delivers a fun, quick read crammed with magical happenings. For those who prefer plot-driven YA paranormal, you'll likely enjoy this tour of New Orleans.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than the first! May 16, 2012

By KC Carter

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

Until recently, I'd never found a paranormal book or series that could keep my attention and interest. The Jade Calhoun books have done just that and more! I've stayed up way too late for too many nights in a row devouring the first and second books in this series and I can't wait for more! This book has the spicy romance of the first, the great cast of characters, and even more suspense. Please hurry with the third!
