Review: 5 stars for Hex on the Beach by Jeaniene Frost, Kelley Armstrong & Melissa Marr


Girls Night Out has never been so much fun–but what are they going to do with all these bodies?

New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Authors Kelley Armstrong, Jeaniene Frost, and Melissa Marr deliver a sexy summer read with this novel-length anthology containing three all-new stories from their Cursed Luck, Night Huntress, and Faery Bargains worlds. Kennedy, Cat, and Gen are just trying to enjoy their respective getaways, but when immortals, vampires, and witches come out to play, things are bound to go awry. Let the supernatural hijinks begin!

A GRAVE GIRLS’ GETAWAY by Jeaniene Frost

Vampire Cat Crawfield Russell is looking forward to a little down time with her best friend, Denise. But when witches crash the party, a fun getaway turns into a paranormal showdown.

GODDESS OF SUMMER LOVE by Kelley Armstrong

The goddess of love sets her sights on the Bennett sisters for a little Memorial Day matchmaking. The plan is to resurrect a local unsolved mystery for the sisters–and their love interests–to solve. But, of course, nothing goes according to plan.

DAQUIRIS AND DAGGERS by Melissa Marr

A fun spa weekend away with friends in a city free of monsters, what could be better? Gen’s necromancy had been on the fritz, so a recharge sounds perfect–until she arrives in San Diego to discover that either the spa is too steps beyond weird or there’s magic afoot.

What I thought about Hex on the Beach

This is a review of A Grave Girls' Getaway by Jeaniene Frost in this anthology containing three stories from Jeaniene Frost, Kelley Armstrong and Melissa Marr.

It's been a while since I've read a Cat & Bones story, so I was eager to get my eyes on this one. Without giving away too much, (and readers should be aware there are spoilers from previous released books in this series in this short story) it seems like Cat and Bones have settled into their own version of domestic bliss. When Bones arranges for a girls-weekend getaway for Cat and Denise, the ladies start out agreeing that it's a great idea -- until it's not! I'd forgotten how much I like Denise's sense of humor, and Cat's laser-focus on mixing it up with other paranormals. When she smells blood while walking the beach with Denise, well-- she's just got to check it out and see what's going on.

What follows is Cat all-the-way! I was reminded how much I love this character because she gets herself into a huge mess of epic proportions when mixing it up with this group of supernaturals. It ends up taking more than Denise and her new demon friend can handle, even with their considerable talents.

I'm smiling writing this review remembering how much I loved this story. Of course there's some Bones and Spade involvement too, so fans of this vampire duo/family -- you won't be sorry grabbing a copy of this. I did feel teased a bit some with Bones new abilities, and I really hope that means Jeaniene Frost is brewing up a new Cat & Bones story for us. Finger-crossed as they say!
