And So The Breaking Begins: Mindbreaker Duet, Book 1 (An Age of War and Prophecy 3)

EVERWOOD FALLS… a small supernatural community tucked up in the Colorado Rockies where witches, werewolves and vampires can live without fear of discovery, and those with curses they can’t control are sent to keep the existence of magic from being revealed to Mundanes.
Once one of thousands of angels who fought against the Underworld at the command of the Archangels, Lucien Girard had his wings broken as punishment for defying angelic law. His crime? Trying to change the fate of the human woman he’d fallen in love with. Centuries later, he bears the curse the Archangels handed down: To fall in love again and again, each time with a new woman who shares the face of the soulmate he failed to save thousands of years before. When Dr. Isabel Romero moves to Everwood Falls, Lucien vows to stay as far away from her as possible, not knowing any other way to prevent her death like all the others who have come before her. But someone from Isabel’s past is stalking her and Lucien can’t simply leave her to her fate. He knows this time will be no different. And yet he refuses to let her go.
Dr. Isabel Romero lives with guilt for the people she’s harmed. The night she died, her life was saved by Costa, a vampire who changed her into one of the undead. But becoming a vampire meant she had to leave her parents behind, only visiting once per year according to vampire law so no one would notice that she isn’t aging. Gifted with a rare healing magic, she saves lives that are beyond her abilities to heal as a doctor. Moving to Everwood Falls is supposed to be a fresh start, but her magic has a dark side and someone from her past is hunting her. The last thing she wants is to be responsible for someone else getting hurt, and that means she can’t allow anyone to get close to her. But she’s going to need Lucien Girard’s help if they’re going to catch the person harming patients in Everwood Falls before someone is seriously hurt.
With a herd of enchanted elk, carnivorous spruce trees, and sentient pumpkins that stalk the local landscaping, Everwood Falls is a quirky mountain town where scales and fur mean found family.
Everwood Falls has sweet paranormal romances with cozy mysteries and guaranteed HEAs. The series can be enjoyed in order or read as standalones, without needing to read the other books.

I’ve read all of Kat Kinney’s books, and I honestly can’t say which of her three paranormal series I love best. I pre-ordered “Fallen”, book two in the Everwood Falls series, and I couldn’t wait to read Lucien and Isabel’s story after my curiosity about them had been ignited while reading book one “Light My Pyre”. And I wasn’t disappointed! I absolutely adore the way the author mixes the dark and the cosy. The characters in her books are stylish and beautiful. They live their lives with gusto –...

The first book in this series was good, but I thought this one was even better. I loved the story, the characters, the setting… All of it. One of my favorite aspects was Everwood Falls itself. I’m from Colorado and have lived there my whole life. Everwood Falls is the quintessential mountain town, with the requisite candy shop and homey restaurants in its picturesque downtown, the spruce trees, and the mounds of winter snow. The setting feels like home to me, and when there’s found family added...

Lucien has been in love with Isabel forever. Literally. He fell for her in Pompeii hundreds of years ago. And that was when he became a fallen angel. He was made to walk the earth and see different versions of Isabel die horrifically. But in Everwood Falls, there is a new version of Isabel. This one is a vampire. She would have died from a car accident 20 years prior if not for her sire. That was when she was reborn as a vampire. Living under the radar with her special healing gifts. Those...

I rush to pre-order Ms Kinney’s books when I see them available and this is why! Following in true cozy tradition, there’s a town of lovely, quirky characters that become friends as I read each chapter. Lucien and Isabel’s story is crafted with fate, redemption, and a pure longing that I couldn’t help but root for. The way she crafts family and community leave my heart feeling warm. Add in the pet sidekicks like Sunshine and it has all the ingredients for an unforgettable story. I enjoyed the...
