I would like to welcome Paul DeBlassie III, author of Goddess of the Wild Thing. I would also like to thank Enchanted Book Promotions for allowing me to be a tour host for them.

Goddess of the Wild Thing is a dramatic tale of one woman's spiritual journey where magical happenings, unexpectant turns of fate, an unseen forces influence her ability to love and be loved. Eva Sanchez, a middle-aged woman, and scholar of esoteric studies encounter a seductive but frightening man who introduces her to a supernatural world in which the wicked powers of a surrogate mother's twisted affection threaten love and life. In the mystic realms of Azilan del Sur, Eve and three friends struggle with whether bad love is better than no love and discover that love is a wild thing.

MY REVIEW:

**** stars

I absolutely loved this story. I like that the author takes a normal thing and make it supernatural. When I saw the cover I knew I had to read it. I'm so glad I did. The book was enthralling. I could not put it down. The characters were believable and Eve faces the challenge that we all face. We all want to be loved. I know people who have decided to stay with there significant other even though they should probably leave. They believe it's better than being alone. Isn't that was Eve and her friends struggled with. I love the way Mr. DeBlassid made this into a supernatural tale. I would love to read more by this author! Great job.

EXCERPT

     Eve sharpened her focus. She saw the sharp nail of a witch's right finger tracing Graciela's image on a foggy mirror in a grungy bathroom, touching the center of the mirror with a hatred so intense, the glass burned red hot. The mirror in Graciela's kitchen cracked. Shards jettisoned at the older healer then were magically warded off and drifted in place about her head and neck.
    Graciela's energy, tired as she was, had fended off the pointed shards. She hadn't been impaled. But the strain had ushered her from one world to the next. Death came not by the hand of another but by a weakened mind an body defending itself.
     Eve, shaken, allowed her soft touch to stay on Graciela's forehead, confirming the horror of what she'd seen. Shamanic wisdom, often discussed between the two kindred souls, spoke to Eve as he stroked her friends head, remembering that death provided passage for one whose life had been well spent and whose time had come.
     Eve wept.
     After a few moments, she closed her friend's green eyes and whispered tenderly, "Always my friend, always love, always together in life and in death." She stood and wiped the tears from her eyes. a gray-brown, green-eyed, great horned owl hooted from the largest cottonwood branch outside the back window.
     Eve heard Shirley finishing her call to the EMT's and police, and then walking to the front of the store to wait for their arrival. 
     One large shard lay at the end of the table, sharp tip pointed outward, it reflected Eve's image, a glowing red ember, menacingly centered at the brow point.
