Cursed by Night by Jada Storm and Emma Night
Did you ever watch that 90's tv show Gargoyles when you were younger? Well this series is the urban fantasy, reverse harem 90's Gargoyle story that I never knew I needed till now. There are four books in this series featuring the protagonist Ace Bisset a homicide detective and her four gargoyle guardians Jacques, Hassan, Gilbert and Thomas.
Ace releases the gargoyles from a thousand year imprisonment in stone unknowingly after she inherits her great aunt's house. She's been working on a case that involves multiple dead bodies that have been bled to death and their bones in their arms ripped out and eaten. Ace is the detective they call when the case doesn't make any sense and has strong paranormal themes like exsanguination or puncture wounds on necks. This case however leaves her baffled until she goes to check out her new home and awakens four stone guardians in the process. Of course like anyone who has never believed in the supernatural and is thrust head first into a world with magic and monsters she tries to deny it at first.
The gargoyles, who were once men and wrongly accused of murdering a witch before being cursed to live in stone half the day help her a long the way as she discovers not only is she a witch but the culprit behind her murders is most likely a group of baby vampires. Ace must track down the hive and kill the sire before they get a chance to make more or else the city will be doomed.
I really loved this book I had forgotten all about the 90's TV show until I saw a review of this book and I knew I had to try it out. I thought this book was well written and the steamy scenes were far better then I imagined. The plot of this book was well thought out and the underlying themes leave you curious and wanting more.
