Evelyn Vaughn has created a superb Grail Keeper romantic suspense

SOMMETHING WICKED is another great read from Evelyn Vaughn (Von Jocks). It's the second book from Vaughn in the fascinating Grail Keepers series put out by Bombshell. The story opens when Katie Trillo comes home to find that her sister, Diana, has just been murdered and the killer is still there. Katie fights him and almost loses her own life. In an odd twist, she asks him his name and then uses it against him. She invokes the Goddess Hekate to curse him to everlasting torment. But unknown to Katie, the killer lied to her, and she has cursed not only the wrong man, but also herself as well. [...] The suspense will keep you on the edge of your seat as Ben and Katie join forces and travel to Greece to rescue the true grail and keep it from the evil Comitatus members. Katie is hit with conflicts on all sides. She must deal with a Victor growing more menacing by the hour. She must outwit the Comitatus men who seek to destroy the grail. And she must search her soul to understand her growing romantic relationship with Ben. The book has a satisfying end, but includes a note of suspense that really makes it difficult for me to wait patiently for the next book from Vaughn. Arline Todd

excellent Grail romantic fantasy

Katie Trillo comes home to the house she shares with her sister Diana the witch only to find her beloved sibling murdered. Se realizes the killer is about to hit her with a hammer, but she deflects the blow with her hand. She learns her assailant's name is Benny Fisher so she invokes Hecate and curses him before he flees. The police arrest Benny, who has an alibi, but is still placed on a line-up with his twin brother Victor. Katie selects Victor whose fingerprints are all over her kitchen as her sister's killer. She realizes she cursed the wrong sibling. As Benny finds himself in several car accidents, Victor is freed as his lawyer makes Diana, Katie and Benny look like crackpots. Still she knows who murdered her sister and why, the Hecate Chalice. With Benny at her side, she travels to Greece where Victor has previously gone in his efforts to join the evil Comitatus secret society that searches for Goddess chalices ultimately looking for the Grail. SOMETHING WICKED, the latest Grail romantic fantasy, is an enjoyable tale starring two likable protagonists falling in love with one feeling guilty for cursing the wrong man, her beloved instead of his sibling. The cast makes the tale as fans will take immense delight with the relationship between the lead couple and hiss at the diabolical Comitatus members who cleverly make Katie and Benny look like crackpots and give Victor an opportunity to join. Fans will appreciate the adventures of Katie and Benny as they do battle with his brother supported by wealth and influence. Harriet Klausner

Evelyn Vaughn delivers another great book!

Evelyn Vaughn returns with her next installment of the intriguing Grail Keepers series. Kate Trillo has rebelled against her family's history of practicing witchcraft (the goddess worshipping type) ever since a near disastrous incident when she was a child. However, when she walks into the home she shares with her sister, Diana, to find Diana dead and the killer still there, Kate invokes the goddess Hekate to curse the killer to everlasting torment. Unfortunately, Kate curses Ben Fisher, the name given to her by the killer, when in fact the killer is Victor Fisher, Ben's twin brother. Victor and Ben's father was a member of Comitatus until he was murdered for trying to leave the organization. Victor wants to return to what he considers his rightful place within the organization and is thus searching for Hekate's Grail. Victor steals Diana's Grail, but it is not the Grail he needs. Kate doesn't want to find the Grail but reluctantly begins the search for it after Victor is released from the murder charges due to insufficient evidence. Kate's quest for the Grail as well as her soul searching kept me intrigued throughout the book. Although I was disappointed not to learn more about the Comitatus, I am still looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
