I like my monsters like my coffee-strong, hot, and not trying to kill me. I'm done with hunting down supernatural criminals. Fighting for my life everyday gets old. So, career change. Social worker for supernaturals is a way to use my skills in a no risk environment. Right? Wrong. It turns out the last witch in my role was slaughtered by a lycanthrope-and the prime suspect is my client who happens to be pure, forbidden deliciousness. Totally irrelevant. I get paid to support the vulnerable, not lust after them. Or assume they're guilty unless proven innocent. But the cops are outgunned. The wizards are morally bankrupt. And the lycans are concealing information. There's someone powerful, clever, and armed with inside knowledge who's getting rich running drugs. Someone lurking behind a network of faeries and lycanthropes. Someone corrupt enough to kill to keep their secrets. I'm a witch. I'm not going down without a fight.… (mehr)

Fun? Yes, a book about witches, wizards (there's a difference) and lycanthropes in a dystopian edition of Australia.
Aurora starts a job in Melbourne as a social worker for the supernatural. She wants to avoid dead people but has to replace a murdered social worker.
This Australia is a world where supernaturals have to be registered, to avoid danger for humans. Naturally, supernaturals don't like that. I wouldn't either.
The magic in this book is different with spells which have to be spoken out loud, but not for Aurora.
Of course there is love, not necessarily with a nice human guy who is boring.
It was nice, but not something you are going to read again. I have the second book in the series also by Librarything Early Reviewers. A review will follow.

Disclaimer: I got this book in the Librarything Early Reviewers. ( )

I enjoyed reading this book though it starts out slow so it was hard to get into at first but i eventually got into it. It also has alot of things happening at the same time so it was hard to follow ( )

Enjoyed reading Foul if Fair by Elisse Hay. It Started out slow but picked up. I liked the characters. Rory, the main character, is smart, resourceful and strong. But for me, I thought there was just to much going on at one time. I probably wouldn't read the next book. Im not into magical mysteries. ( )

If you enjoy books by Patricia Briggs, Ilona Andrews or Nalini Singh, this may be up your alley. It has a strong female lead, good supporting cast, and an interesting premise. 2-cent summary: After a brutal work incident results in the death of someone close, kitchen witch Rory takes a new, less dangerous job as a Caretaker. (Basically, a social worker for the supernatural community.) Welcomed with tea and cake by fluttery co-workers and her self-proclaimed feminist boss, Rory is dumped almost immediately into a stew of office politics, pixie-dust and human trafficking, and murder. Good fun! The start of a new series, and I've already pre-ordered the second installment. ( )

This was an excellent start to the series. Rory wants to change her job to something safer or so she thinks. She is now a caretaker to supernaturals. She knows something is not right and she has to find out the mystery and the murderer who killed the witch whose job she has taken over. I really like Beo, the alpha of the lycan pack. He is handsome and has a way with words. There are some things you don’t get the answer to but most of the problems get solved. This book goes from a slow start to an action packed ending. I received a free book and the views and opinions are my own. ( )
