Betrayal. It creates rivals.

With the traitor discovered, Jinx Whitethorn takes Jacob Trent back to the home she grew up in. Bringing her shifter boyfriend to a house full of witches is asking for trouble, but Jinx is beyond caring what they think. She needs answers. Answers only they might provide. And they’re willing to endure the hostility to get them.
Surrounded by witch knowledge and magic, Jinx learns more about the curse her father placed on the Bane Pack. But that’s not all. She’s learning to harbor secrets of her own. She can’t keep dodging the Bane Pack, and if she wants to end this, she’ll have to do it alone.
Jacob would never approve of what Jinx is going to do. He can never know. Not until it’s too late to stop her.

The Rival of Species is the third book of Howl for the Damned, a series based in the world of D. Fischer’s Divinus Kingdom. Divinus Kingdom is interconnecting novels that branch one series to the next.

Captivating and magical

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 12, 2020

In this final book of the series, Jinx uncovers who the traitor is and needs to figure out what to do to correct the problems caused by her mistaken trust and save the pack she is discovering has become more than family. There are still questions to be answered, a past she doesn't understand, and a future that is uncertain. And how she will accomplish all of this without Jacob finding out is a feat of magic of its own.

What a sensational final book in this series! Jinx captured my heart from the first book, and her story had me on the edge of my seat, waiting to see what she would have to endure next. The way the author intertwined some Native American heritage within the wolf shifter story was not only special but reverential, and it made me want to learn more. It was nothing short of spectacular.

Treachery, loyalty, honor and integrity

Jinx and Sara are heading back to the home that never really felt like home in this fast paced trilogy climax, but this time they have their protectors, Jacob and Cinder, close by their sides. Book 2 explored the shifter side of the issues, this book delves deeper into the witches' society. And the more they learn, the more doesn't quite add up. Both Jinx and Sara face difficult decisions as they learn more about themselves, their powers, the Bane pack, the the curse that draws them all together. The ending was not what I expected - but very satisfying.

This is the third book in the Howl for the Damned Trilogy and these books definitely need to be read in order as they slowly unravel a story that builds form book to book.

This was a great finish to an awesome series! You can't control who you fall in love with and negative bias only harms and doesn't heal.

Such a great end to this trilogy, it’s great seeing the witches, shifters and skinwalkers all getting along and making it a better place. This story feels real and it’s amazingly written. Another amazing job D Fischer

REVIEWED BY LINDA TONIS
MEMBER OF THE PARANORMAL ROMANCE GUILD REVIEW TEAM
Jinx is still trying to accept the fact that her Aunt Kaya betrayed her and the pack and stole her father’s book. She feels helpless, confused, and betrayed. Jacob suggests that they return to the Lotus Coven and see her mother who might have answers that they need. Shifters and witches are known enemies and Jinx and Sara bringing with them shifters could mean trouble.

Jacob and Cinder are not fans of witches, but they refuse to allow the women they love to go it alone. Jacob is pleasantly surprised by the greeting the High Priestess bestows on them, she is accepting of Jacob and Cinder, but lovingly embraces Sara and Jinx. Jinx’s mom is little help and Sara’s mom is not around. The High Priestess is well aware of the fact that Jinx is a skinwalker, but like Jinx, is still not sure of what her real gifts are. When Jinx and Jacob finally mate the High Priestess is not surprised and is happy that Jinx finally has someone who will always protect her.

Jinx discovers that Sara and she are more than best friends, a connection they never realized they had and one I won’t reveal. While at the coven Jinx and Sara begin to form a plan to finally destroy Wice Bane and the shifters in his pack who are entrenched in evil. She also hopes that she can find her aunt whom she still believes is a victim and save her.

So much happens in this last book of the series, all questions are answered and there are many surprises. Jinx finally learns what she is capable of, taking the form of many different animals and more. She is well aware of how to reunite the shifters of the Bane pack with their wolves. When she is captured. she is given a choice: free the wolves or everyone she loves will die. As with the previous two books there is suspense, romance, secrets, betrayals, and questions, but this time everything is revealed.

I loved this series and strongly recommend beginning with book one or it will be hard to follow what is going on. It is a series filled with amazing characters and a witch with no magic trying to find herself and what she is and finally finding love and acceptance after years of feeling alone.

Jinx's true self shines through

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 16, 2020

This is the third book in the Howl for the Damned series and it is one encompassing read. It is not a standalone and picks up where the second book left off. It continues Jinx’s journey and learning who she truly is. Jinx finds out that she is a skinwalker and can transform herself into any animal she chooses. Jacob’s pack has accepted Jinx and the two want to carry out the mate bond. However, since the betrayal, Jinx is spending more time alone berating herself. There is still the issue of the Bane Pack, which Jinx and Jacob are trying to gather as much information as possible to deal with the escalation of violence and the curse. Will Jinx finally be able to get to the truth about the curse? Overall, this is one dynamic storyline filled with intrigue, drama, secrets and romance that is not to be missed. I volunteered to read a copy of this book.

Amazing series!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 16, 2020

In this book we discover that when skinwalking Jinx can walk in any animal’s skin she chooses. Since the betrayal of a member of her new found family, her only link to her father naturally Jinx has been withdrawn into herself, going off alone on the Riva Pack land to roam in different animal skins. Slowly learning to shift more quickly and kind of discovering her new self.

After their previous misunderstanding and a few awkward moments Jinx and Jacob both want to take their relationship to the next level and carry out the mate bond. Jacob is reluctant as he doesn’t want Jinx to become his mate and then regret it. Jacob seems to think once the danger with the Bane Pack is over Jinx may feel differently about staying with him forever. Jacob knows Jinx is the one for him and that he wants to be with her forever, he is just wary because Jinx is not a wolf shifter and once a wolf mates it is forever and there is no turning back.

Jacob and the Riva Pack have all accepted and accustomed to the presence of Jinx and witch Sara within their home even though there is a general distrust and dislike between witches and shifters. So, it is quite a surprise when a visit to the Lotus Coven is planned, though there is a highly amusing scene within the book where Jacob tells Cinder he is going to be visiting the Lotus Coven with him, Jinx and Sara. Jinx needs some answers from her mother about her father and the Whitethorn family. There are some fantastic scenes where the big bad wolves are reduced to scared little boys whilst at the coven. At first there is a suspicion of each other but when Marian sees how much Jacob and Cinder love and care for Jinx and Sara, Marian sort of takes them under her wing. As Jinx had to put up with some initial distrust from the Riva Pack, both Jacob and Cinderson are ignored, and treat quite poorly at the coven and some of its members.

Once again, I had lots of questions, theories and thoughts of my own during the book, such as could Jinx somehow speak/contact her father Adriel for any help with the situation she finds herself in the middle of? Is the cat that is roaming the Lotus Coven really a cat or some sort of “device” or “being” that is there to report about what is going on in the Coven to someone else?
I have really grown to love these characters and really want to read more about them so I am hoping there is going to be a spin off series with them in. With all the different supernatural beings the possibilities are endless. I truly love the style of D. Fischer’s writing and story- telling, she makes it so easy to read and get lost in her books. Her characters are realistic and are a great mix of instantly likable, lovable as well as those you grow to love and of course the ones you adore disliking too! As well as the main characters of Jinx, Sara, Jacob & Cinder we meet more witches. I immediately loved Marian the High Priestess, yet at the same time felt drawn to the more cantankerous character of Greta. Greta reminded me a little of Glenda the Riva Pack cook. I enjoyed the introduction of Ravyn, the pack yet to receive a name, and of course revisiting with the Cloven Pack. I loved how the different supernatural beings all came together in the end to fight a common threat.

My immediate thoughts upon finishing this book were that I absolutely
Loved the book from beginning to end. Sad that it's the last book in the Howl For The Damned Series but hoping for more from the supernatural beings in this series perhaps in a spin off or three!! A fantastic "shifter series" that has "shifters" & more......much more.

To sum up once again I felt immediately hooked and was pulled right back into the story full of mystery & intrigue. I was determined to attempt to read it slowly and savour the book but still read it in just two “reading sessions”. The whole series makes for addictive reading, seriously you do not want to put this book down for anything!! I could go on and on about this book, this series, and look forward to reading other reviews and opinions on it and maybe even talking “spoilers”. It has been hard to talk about this book whilst at the same time refrain from including any spoilers. This book and series reminded me of my first love of the "shifter" genre and the enjoyment I got from Rachel Vincent's Shifter Series and Kelley Armstrong's Women Of The Otherworld Series. I have seen this series also compared to Patricia Briggs books (I have only read one so far) so I intend to read some of her books too! If you love these books and want recommendations they also remind me of Amanda Carlson's Jessica McClain books and Karina Espinosa's brilliant Mackenzie Grey Series too.
