Playing With Monsters by Amelia Hutchins

Synopsis

You think that your coven keeps you save.  But My coven has remained hidden in the shadows for centuries.
We’ve avoided the ‘real world’ altogether; hiding from monsters and other creatures we share this planet with. We found protection in the Colville National Forest, nestled in a town protected by magical barriers.
Our powers are locked by an ancient curse, one meant to protect us from being found.
Until now.
The past has a way of repeating itself. A new game is beginning. No one is safe.
He’s coming for me.
He’s hunting.
The monster we’ve run from for centuries has found us.
How far will this deadly game go?
How far will I be able to take it, or will he destroy me and everything I care about?
Will the one thing I can’t live without, be the key to destroying and undoing the past?
Or will the past destroy me before I can save the people I love from what I’ve done.

Review

Playing with Monsters comes with a warning and if you’ve read any other Amelia Hutchins books you probably understand.  These books are dark and the character especially, in this case, Lucien, is not all that likable, at least not at first.  

As the story gets told and the characters evolve, you still may not like them, but perhaps you understand them a bit more.  The story is fantastic by the way, full of mystery that had me wanting to know what was going to happen next every step of the way.  

There is a lot of lore in this book, and as an avid paranormal romance reader, I loved it.  This is also high on the smut scale. Be advised about both before you pick this one up. If you’re okay with those two elements then I highly suggest you pick it up.
