WITCH FURY, ELEMENTAL WITCHES, BOOK 4 finished the saga (WITCH HEART, WITCH FIRE, and WITCH BLOOD) with Anya Bast at her best. The romance between Theo and Sarafina crackles and sizzles into a blazing fire of passion. The action is first-rate and the lead characters from the previous novels tie up nicely in this novel. A fast-paced, steaming hot paranormal that has me waiting to see what Anya Bast will do next.
I was disappointed in this story. I just couldn't get into it. I don't like Sarafina - she comes across as a TSTL female who you just want to smack. And Theo is usually my kind of hero - gorgeous, bossy, alpha. So I can't figure why I'm not liking this. Maybe it's just that there is no real chemistry between Sarafina and Theo. There was more chemistry between Sarafina and Stefan, the bad guy.
Between kidnaps and rescues Sarafina and Theo find the time to trust each other and fall in love. A must read just like the other 3 Elementa witch stories by Anya Bast.
