An abandoned Egyptian goddess follows her visions to Ireland, and finds more than she ever bargained for...

Bat Sitru used to be a goddess. Well, technically she still is. But with no followers, no temples, and only the overly mischievous cat-goddess Bastet as a friend, it's difficult to lay claim to the title.

When her visions—once faded—return to her, they point to a land in the north, one of green slopes, mist, and rainbows. She is shown a hope for comfort and home, something that has long been missing from her existence.

Once there, she begins to wonder if her visions have led her wrong. She's cold, damp, and her new landlords, the O’Loinsigh brothers, are not particularly welcoming. On top of that, she is confronted by a dead leprechaun on the rear stoop, a dagger that sucks the life of immortals, and territorial gods.

As past secrets collides with the present, will Bat be able to carve a place for herself in this new land? Or will this goddess be forgotten once more?

Please note: A previous, and shorter, version of this story was released in the anthology Shamrocked. This is also a slow-burn RH.

 REVIEW
This series sure starts with a bang as we meet Bat an Egyptian Goddess who has essentially been forgotten over time. She decides to go on vacation after she receives some vague  visions but she is in for quite a few surprises when she arrives. Her landlords are three hot brothers with secrets that cannot decide if they want to allow her to stay or not. A murder puts a spin on things and they get closer as the investigation goes on. Full of intrigue, fantasy, and fun as the story pulls you taking you on a ride until the very last page. I totally loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.

A storm is brewing, and this goddess does not like the damp… 

Bat Sitru, an Egyptian goddess, is content in her new life in Sligo, Ireland. She tends the bar, participates in all the sing-songs she cares to, and is making new friends. The only thing she could wish to change is her relationship with the O’Loinsigh brothers—they’ve grown distant, and she’s afraid to upset the careful balance the four of them have found.

Before she can figure out what to do about that distance, an invitation arrives from the head of the O’Loinsigh family, leading to the revelation of long-held secrets and her visions come to life once more. What she will need to face this time is nothing so simple as a mad woman out for revenge—old legends are stirring as an ancient evil seeks to return.

Along with Dub, Mell, Shar, the reluctant Finn, and a host of other outcasts, Bat will confront a growing conspiracy of fae, gods, Fomoiri, and an evil long locked away. All she wants is to enjoy her strawberries and tea, and maybe a kiss or two, but sometimes a goddess has to do…

Well, a goddess has to do what a goddess has to do. 

 REVIEW
Every bit as good as book one this one picks up the story pretty much where it left off. Bat wishes the guys would stop pulling away but family drama intervenes making them act in ways they usually would not. When it bleeds into their daily lives they have to no choice but to tackle the mystery around them but it will be so much harder then they thought it would. Fantastic evolution of this group drawing them closer together yet still full of lots of twists to keep you guessing. Bat is really coming into her own now. I totally loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.

Bat Sitru and her merry band of fae are officially on the run... 

Or are they on the hunt? It's hard to tell. Separated from Dub and Shar, Bat can only concentrate on getting through the next steps of their piece-meal plan to defeat Balor. They have all the tools to defeat the would-be god, now they just have to pull it all together.

With new and unexpected allies, as well as a horde of sluagh on their heels, Bat and her boys race to find Tir Hudi and the cauldron before their enemies know they're there.

In the end, it will be up to her, that forgotten goddess, to restore the balance and prevent the world from descending into chaos...

Note: Yes, for those who have not read the first two books yet, this is a "why choose" type romance.

REVIEW
 A fantastically thrilling conclusion to this phenomenal supernatural RH trilogy!The group has been separated after the last book and things are looking rough at the beginning. Thanks to a few surprises and twists they manage to come back together just in time. It may be conclusion but we still have lots of stuff to learn that will blow your mind when it is all said and done. A thrilling adventure that you will be sad to finish. Total must read for fans of the genre. I totally loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.



About Cecilia:
Cecilia Randell was born in Austin, Texas and grew up in a home with her very own Cheerful Bulldozer.  After some brief adventures in various places such as California and Florida, she returned to her hometown and took up a career in drafting.  A lifetime lover of words and stories, the transition to writing was two-fold: a comment from a relative and a short line from another author, saying to write what you want to read.

And thus the new adventure was born.

Now she can be found most days curled up in a comfy chair and creating new tales to share with others.
