The Trouble With Trying to Bag a Blood Witch (Murder Sprees and Mute Decrees Book 5) by Jennifer Cody

We are back into the Foxily universe with The Trouble With Trying to Bag a Blood Witch. It's time for Darcy Hellspinner to meet his match!


From the blurb:

Elijah:

Imagine coming home from an extended stay in a foreign country to find a letter from a house sitter you didn’t hire warning you to get a protection order against your ex and informing you that you’re a terrible plant dad.

I mean, I am a terrible plant dad, and I probably should get a protection order against Stalker Steve, but that letter isn’t the weirdest thing to happen to me today. I think the teleporting alien baby who’s decided to make me their perch probably takes the prize for Weirdest Thing in Elijah Penn’s Life.

Fortunately, the baby’s parents hired a bounty hunter to bring me and my new buddy back. Unfortunately, Darcy Hellspinner might be the sexiest man I’ve ever met in real life, and if it isn’t clear from the fact I call my ex Stalker Steve, I have terrible taste in men. I have the sneaking suspicion that Darcy’s going to be my next big mistake, but that’s ok—I’m probably going to be his too.

The Trouble With Trying to Bag a Blood Witch is a 87k paranormal romance with a little bit of sci-fi mixed in, two MCs who think this is just an extended hook up, and a baby alien with impeccable timing. The Foxily family is growing again. It’s Darcy’s turn to bring in a mate, but he’s lodging an official complaint because this isn’t what he signed up for.


Molly Otto's review:

If you're like me, you have been devouring this series from the beginning. You couldn't help but wonder who would have the power to snag Darcy. Enter Elijah (the guy Romily was apartment sitting for, technically), when he returns from his trip abroad, he gets entered unceremoniously into the Foxily world. Elijah is one of those people who just goes with the flow and accepts things as they are, and you can't help but admire him for this way of thinking. Mix him in with the rest of the Foxily's, and he just fits in like he was born to be part of this world. Bellamy and Darcy finally hash out their feelings for them to be able to move forward and be the bestie for life they were always meant to be. We get cameos from the side quests to see how they tie in that made this a great addition to the universe. As always, eagerly awaiting the next adventure in this wild universe.
