Deborah Blake - Wickedly Powerful

The third book in the Baba Yaga series, published February 2, 2016.
Genre: paranormal romance
Cover: good



Known as the wicked witch of Russian fairy tales, Baba Yaga is not one woman, but rather a title carried by a chosen few. They keep the balance of nature and guard the borders or our world, but don’t make the mistake of crossing one of them…

The only thing more fiery than Bella Young's red hair is her temper. She knows that a Baba Yaga's power without strict control can leave the people she cares about burned, so to protect her heart - and everyone around her - the only company she keeps is her dragon-turned-Norwegian-Forest-cat, Koshka.
But when Bella is tasked with discovering who's setting magical fires on Wyoming's Black Hills, she finds herself working closely with former Hotshots firefighter Sam Corbett-and falling hard for his quiet strength and charm.
Sam may bear the scars of his past, but Bella can see beyond them and would do anything to help him heal. Only before she can rescue her Prince Charming, she'll have to overcome the mysterious foe setting the forest fires-a truly wicked witch who wields as much power and even more anger than Bella…


The third in this great trilogy, and I loved it. Although I really wanted to smack Sam a few times. He is not deserving of Bella at all. Bella discovers who is behind it, and she finds the missing Riders, but it takes all the Baba's together and their lovers to save them in turn …

Great story, great characters, especially of the teenaged run away Bella takes on as her apprentice. I look forward to reading more by this author.

Original, fun, magical and with a nice portion of action and some love scenes as well. And of course a trip to the Queen of Faery …

10 stars.
