The Enchanter’s Flame: The Ellwood Chronicles I
By Michele Notaro
Narrated by Kenneth Obi
Strange things are happening all around Brinnswick. Things that remind me of a piece of my past I’d rather forget. Girls are being killed, drained of blood, and left with strange markings on their bodies. When I finally connect the cases together, a specialist is called in—though, what he’s a specialist of is beyond me.
When the chief assigns him as my new partner for the case, I can’t help but groan on the inside. Why of all people would I be assigned to Ailin Ellwood? The man is a disaster waiting to happen and a jerk to boot. A sexy jerk, but a jerk nonetheless.
What will Sebastian think when he discovers Ailin’s specialty? Will he make a run for it or will he stick around and discover a world of magic hidden beneath the city’s surface?
***The Enchanter’s Flame is the first book in the Ellwood Chronicles. It’s a paranormal romance that contains explicit material and is intended for mature adults 18 and over.***

Just fantastic! I loved it!!
This story has the perfect balance of intrigue, magic, and mystery with great characters and a good bit of lust and adventure thrown in. I loved both Ailin and Sebastian and their chemistry flies off the page. They have a great love/lust/hate thing going on and the antics within this connection are hilarious!
Ailin is such a little spitfire and such a great character. I loved his sass and snark, humor and crypticness when it comes to what he can tell Sebastian. Sebastian, on the other hand, is a great detective, witty and just plain loveable! He’s thrown into an unusual partnership with Ailin to solve some mysterious murders. In doing so Sebastian is introduced to Ailin’s world and subsequently thrown into the path of a demon hell-bent on destruction and power.
Michelle has created an awesome world that I just want to drive into. I loved every aspect of this book and look forward to the other in this series.
The book ends on a BANG that leaves you begging for more. Wonderful work by Michelle and add in Kenneth’s narration and is just fantastic!! Kenneth elevated this book to the next level and with his compelling narration and different dialects and tones for each character is just adds to the mystery and mayhem!! I loved it!!!!

The Witch’s Seal: The Ellwood Chronicles Prequel
By Michele Notaro
Ailin~
The demon gate needs to be sealed, at least from higher level demons. I may be the most powerful witch in the world right now, but I know I can’t do it alone. No one wants to help and risk their lives for the greater good, not that I can blame them, really. It kills me to ask my boyfriend, Emrys, but I suck it up because his magic is nearly as powerful as my own. He doesn’t want to help at first, but let’s just say I can be very persuasive.
Emrys~
Maybe he should’ve listened to me, maybe we never should’ve gone to the gate. Terrible things unfold, and Ailin and I are torn apart, our love ripped to shreds. My life is forever changed, and there’s nothing I can do about it.
In The Witch’s Seal, you’ll discover some secrets from Ailin, Emrys, and even Alec. Find out what really happened between Ailin and Emrys before the events in The Enchanter’s Flame took place, but it’s recommended that you read Book 1 first.
***The Witch’s Seal is the prequel in The Ellwood Chronicles series. It contains explicit material and is intended for mature adults 18 and over.***

A quick paced background story that kind of broke my heart!
I love the world Michelle’s created and going back to Ailin’s relationship with Emrys was a devastating adventure. As I already loved Ailin it was interesting to read what he was like before he was ‘betrayed’. Ailin and Emrys’ relationship seemed to work perfectly and I grew to love Emrys and was devastated by what happened to him and what broke Ailin and Emrys apart. I loved the add-in of Julius as another dynamic character and a much-needed connection to aid in the healing from the aftermath. I look forward to where Michelle will take us next and how the events in this novel, as well as book one, one will come to a head. I can’t wait!!!

The Enchanter’s Soul: The Ellwood Chronicles II
By Michele Notaro
Many fall as the last enchanter rises…
The first line of the ancient prophecy keeps playing over and over in my head, but I’m afraid to remember the rest. I don’t want to think about what’s coming for us—what’s coming for him. I’ve been keeping Brinnswick safe for years; I’ve been keeping my coven safe my whole life; and now I was responsible for keeping Sebastian safe, too. It shouldn’t have been a problem, he was my vitmea viramore, after all, and I was used to having the weight of the world on my shoulders.***
What Seb doesn’t know is that everyone in the magical community is after him—even if they don’t realize it yet. They’ve been looking for him for centuries; not only for him, but for his soul. But they never counted on him having me. I will protect him with my every breath and take down anyone that gets in our way. His soul belongs with me, not in the arms of evil.
***The Enchanter’s Soul is the second book in The Ellwood Chronicles and is a continuation of Sebastian and Ailin’s story. It contains explicit material and is intended for mature adults 18 years of age and older.***

The adventure continues and I loved it!!
This story is just as awesome as the first book and continues on with Ailin and Sebastian and them coming to terms with Seb’s enchanter powers and their fated connection. It is a thrilling journey, full of new intrigue, mystery, and magic. We see all the favorite characters and get a better insight into their magical world and some weird things that have been happening since their battle with the demon. We are introduced (along with Seb) to some interesting creatures and Seb’s reactions are classic!
The story leads to a new battle where all is almost lost. I was on the edge of my seat! I loved the development of Seb and Ailin’s connection and the struggles they faced, while magic related, seemed relatable to a ‘normal’ relationship. I loved the reveal of the bond creatures and the world Michele has created has grown exponentially.
I can’t wait to see what happens next as again, Michele left us with a taste of what’s to come!! Loving this world and Ailin and Seb are some of my all-time favorite characters!! Another 5 star read for me!!!
