Boundary Crossed by Melissa F. Olson
4.0
Book one of the "An Old World Novel" series by Melissa F. Olson narrated by Kate Rudd.
Lex is an ex army sergeant honourably discharged and working at supermarket trying to get over losing her twin sister less then a year ago and PTSD from been only surviving member of her unit.
One night a couple come into the shop looking for nappy but when Lex looks at the baby she realises it her niece and try's to stop her abduction.
While unsuccessfully trying to protect Charlie Lex is stabbed and dies but wakes up in hospital with mysterious Quinn in her room.
This is when she finds out that she's a extremely strong witch which is tied to death magic.
I really enjoyed this book it did remind me of Patricia Briggs Mercy and Sookie Stackhouse but without sex. Love that Lex is a kick ass badass ex army learning her new witch skills and not scare to shoot someone in head. Some scenes are violent and messy but very cool.
My only complaint is no adult relationship content but this book did have a lot to explain and action just hope something develops between Lex and another character.
I also hate with a passion cliffhanger which this differently leaves you hanging but as I really want to find out more about Lex I'll keep reading/listening. Fabulous narrator especially with Quinn voice.
