REVIEW: The Artist’s Firebrand – The Blood Coven World #7 – T. M. Smith

Amazon Link: amazon

When
Azura, an Amazon and artist, storms back into Van’s life, she turns the berserker Firebrand’s world upside down.

Surprise
Van is going to be a daddy.

Unfortunately
Amazon and berserker law has something to say about who raises children.

But
Azura and Van are about to break tradition in this tale of second-chance romance, danger, and family bonds forged unexpectedly and against all odds.

This was a short story, but I loved it. Van is a Firebrand and a berserker and had no idea when there was a knock on the door his entire world would change.

Azura is an Amazon who had a sexual encounter with Van and now stands before him pregnant. The rule is that when a berserker and an Amazon have a child the boy would go with the father and the girl would go with the mother. There were no cases of anything different, it was the way of the breeds.

Van is shocked but knows that he wants to be in his child’s life so when Azura informs him that she has no intention of separating from her child, boy or girl they decide to live together. Of course, their decision will not go unnoticed and will result in a fight between the Berserkers and the Amazons.

I don’t want to reveal anything else, but I will say that this was a beautiful story and one that should not be missed. Van and Azura’s decision would result in surprises, kidnapping and changes. Van and Azura have a chance at a happy life, but a lot stands in their way.
