I wanted to know who planted the evil hexes, and I wanted Cicero and Tom to find Isaac! Damn, I was on the edge of my seat during the last half of the story. But I was utterly devoted to this book from beginning to end. I don't love mysteries, and that's not a secret. The MCs had me swooning: Cicero the cat shifter, all attitude, sass, and flirtation, and Tom, a man with a kind heart and secret past who is Cicero's witch, even if he doesn't know it. The narrative paints a fascinating picture of late 19th century New York, brimming with mystery and magic, witches and their familiars, tenements and tunnel gangs, coppers and hexes. So many of my friends pushed me to read the Whyborne & Griffin series, but I just couldn't commit to eight books plus, I'm usually not a fan of series that focus on the same couple.īut now I get all the fangirling, because Hexbreaker was AMAZING. Yet as the heat between them builds, Tom's need for the other man threatens to overcome every rational argument against becoming involved.But when their investigation uncovers a conspiracy that threatens all of New York, Tom must make the hardest decision of his life: to live a lie and gain his heart's desire, or to confess the truth and sacrifice it all. Though they're completely unsuited to one another, Cicero has no choice but to work alongside Tom.all the while fighting against the passion growing within.Tom knows that taking Cicero as his familiar would only lead to discovery and disaster. When the trail of his investigation crosses Tom's, the very bohemian Cicero instinctively recognizes the uncultured Irish patrolman as his witch.
But Tom's secret is threatened when a horrible murder on his beat seems to have been caused by the same ancient magic that killed his gang.Cat shifter Cicero is determined to investigate the disappearance of one friend and the death of another, even though no one else believes the cases are connected. If anyone finds out he once ran with the notorious O'Connell tunnel gang, he'll spend the rest of his life doing hard time behind bars. Will a dark history doom their future together?New York copper Tom Halloran is a man with a past.
