Whatever your paranormal pleasure, dive into these five original stories from award winning and new Australian authors in this magical anthology. 

Featuring sweet or spicy romance, action, revenge, secrets and curses, this paranormal anthology will fill all your Valentine's Day desires.

Witch, Vampire, Demi-God, Fae and Shifter: who will get their happy ever after this Valentine's Day?

LOVE CURSED by Leisl Leighton
A love across time, cursed to stay apart …
Coven librarian, Juliana Stevens, jokes about being cursed at love. When an old diary that speaks of an ancient Love Curse is found, she realises it isn't a joke. To break the hex she must uncover a secret spell and travel to Rome to be in the exact spot with her unknown soul mate by midnight on Valentine's Day, or her soul will be doomed forever. No pressure – but it's going to be Happy Never After if she can't.

BAD BATCH by Marnie St Clair
Avery Lloyd does not like being a witch - it's all rules and hard work. She also hates dogs. As in, really hates dogs. So when her boss Alec insists she attend the Valentine's Day charity event at the lost dogs' shelter, Avery casts an unlawful spell to get out of it. But something's not quite right about this batch of magic, and before she knows it, Avery has ruined Alec's life. She has until Valentine's Day to fix it, or the damage will be permanent.

CATNIP by Samantha Marshall
For reclusive dragon Oaklyn Airecross, spending Valentine's Day with a stack of book boyfriends and chocolate mousse sounds like heaven - until an uninvited guest picks a fight with a bean bag, and she's thrust bodily into a mess of runaway cats, vampire intrigue and frypans. In order to reclaim the Valentine's Day of her dreams, Oaklyn must set aside her preconceived notions on true love, the perfect man, and exactly what that bulge might be when it twitches inside of his pants.

FILIGREE AND FATE by Helen Lucy Howe
Famous fae-artist, Zhulija, is asked to create decorations for a wedding, but things don't go according to plan. Infamous unseelie, Dario Eribifax, after recognizing his 'true mate,' appoints himself her personal assistant in an effort to convince her of their fated connection. What could possibly go wrong?

A BROOMSTICK BREW by Georgia Tingley
When Wysper uses a 'love potion' on Valentine's Day to make the man of her dreams fall in love, things take a turn for the worse. She finds herself falling for everyone she looks at. A hilarious witchcraft backfire!

A Perfectly Paranormal Valentine is a collection filled with paranormal romances. The one I read was for Ms. St. Clair, who wrote Bad Batch.

Can Avery figure out the bad batch to save Alec’s business?

Avery Lloyd

Avery Lloyd is the point of view character that we follow through this novella. She is also the female love interest as well. Avery seems like a pretty capable young woman who has a good head on her shoulders. She loves her job and is trying to make her coven better in what they can do. Avery tries to do the right thing throughout the novella, but the magic she is using seems to always do something different. She is very focused on her work and trying to be a witch while also trying to do things that she wants to do. It’s always difficult for her, as we can see. Avery is a good person, though, as she was trying to fix her mistakes. I like her because she seems like a great character. Yes, she is a witch, but that doesn’t mean she knows everything or does whatever she wants. Avery has to work for what she wants, and when she realizes that she made two mistakes, she tries to fix them.

Alec Hewittson

Alec Hewittson is Avery’s boss and is trying not to fall for his attractions for her. It is tough for him not to do, but he manages. Alec started up his company and wanted to take it as far as possible without selling out, but something made him decide to do something else. He does what he wants to do and doesn’t like it when anyone thinks he isn’t doing the right thing. Alec isn’t magical like Avery, but he still cares for her and her wellbeing. I like him as well because he seems like he generally cares for Avery’s wellbeing and wants what is best for her. Alec seems like a nice guy. Luckily, Avery found him when she did.

4 Stars

A Perfectly Paranormal Valentine is a collection filled with five different paranormal romances that are considered sweet as well. I only read Bad Batch by Marie St. Clair, and it was excellent. Bad Batch is getting four stars. I am recommending A Perfectly Paranormal Valentine to everyone that likes paranormal romances. Give Bad Batch and give the other books a try. Then let me know what you think. I am very curious about this world that Ms. St. Clair set up for her characters, especially the magic system. From reading Ms. St. Clair’s book, I am confident that the others will be just as good as hers in this collection.

Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of A Perfectly Paranormal Valentine.

Until the next time,

Happy Reading!
