What a badass action packed ride this was!
Dayanara is a forceful witch destined to become the next Acna, the most powerful witch in command of the entire clan. Her mother, the current Acna, arranges a marriage to a rival vampire king, Kaizer, to bring peace between their lands. Daya is expected to fulfill her role and mother’s orders, but everything is not as at seems… and Daya begins her search for the truth amongst what the vampires truly want in regards to the arrangement.
This was a fast paced and gripping read with all of the best pieces in a romantasy. Witches, vampires, shifters, unique magic systems and twists and turns that’ll leave you reeling. I cannot wait for the next book because wow this had me hooked from start to finish. Mikayla has a way of writing that’s almost conversational and so fluidly written.
Diverse characters, slow burn, why choose, lgbtq rep, forced proximity, … one of the most badass & sassy FMC’s I’ve read so far this year.
Oh and did I mention that Daya is a 170+ year old witch? So those of you who want a baddie FMC over 25 years old… this is the one 👀
Blood & Brujas is sure to check quite a few boxes for romantasy lovers…. Buckle up for an adventure, because this is one that’ll stick with you long after the final page.
