But after a dying vampire gifts Trinity a mystical amulet, she is drawn into the fray as the legendary Guardian of Bastet, a warrior born when the need arises.
Though Trinity initially rejects the role, she warms to the idea when Gordon agrees to train her - and their passion for each other grows as he teaches her to embrace her animal instincts.
As she begins to accept her destiny and believe in her growing powers, Trinity realizes the danger is even closer to home than she ever imagined - and she and Gordon are going to have to face the demon in a fight to the death....

Purrfectly fantastic new paranormal series!
By Marlene @ Reading Reality
Jacqueline M. Battisti's new urban fantasy/paranormal debut, The Guardian of Bastet, had me from the very first word in the blurb. Her main character is a cat-shifter. Not a jaguar or a puma, oh no. At the full-moon, Trinity Morrigan-Caine shifts into a house-cat. The book might as well have jumped up and said "Here reader, reader, reader..."
The story made me purr with delight.
Trinity Morrigan-Caine is a half-breed. Her mother is a powerful witch of the Morrigan line. (Yes, that Morrigan. Morgaine. You know the one. She had a little something to do with a fellow named Arthur. Way, way back.) But Trinity isn't a powerful witch like her mom. Because Olivia Morrigan went and fell in love with a werepuma, and that just isn't done. So Olivia Morrigan got disowned and disavowed, and went to live with her husband, Ben Caine, in the Genesee Valley of upstate New York.
Which turned out to be kind of like Sunnydale in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Complete with demons and Hellmouth. Olivia Morrigan found herself the head witch of the Genesee Valley Society of Others (GVSO) because witches are just so much better than everyone else.
The only problem is that Olivia and Ben's daughter, Trinity, isn't quite what Olivia had in mind. Trinity isn't much of a witch, and she doesn't shift into anything fierce. Dad's an alpha werepuma. When it's Trinity's time of the month, Trinity turns into good old Felis catus, otherwise known as an ordinary house cat. She even (ugh!) hunts mice. Very well according to her cousin and housemate.
Tracy's other power? Well, since she turns into an animal, she can also understand them. Which makes her a fantastic vet. Her patients just adore her. And she does work miracles with the animals.
The other problem with being a were-kitty is that Trinity has all the morals of, well, a cat. She likes men. Frequently and often. And isn't horribly particular. Which comes to bite her, and pretty much everyone around her, in the butt when Trinity brings a demon home on the worst booty call ever.
But at least Trinity didn't summon the demon. She just didn't pay attention when he started mesmerizing her. There's a hotter place in hell for the ones who summoned him. Figuring that out and growing up and into her powers enough to take that bad boy out, is what makes this story sing.
This is Trinity's story. She starts out as a damn good veterinarian, but a dud in everything else. Only one person believes in her, and unfortunately for Trinity, it isn't one or both of her parents. (Dad did better than mom, but still...) The only one to believe in Trinity was the GVSO's one and only resident vampire, Vincent. His last act is to gift Trinity with an ancient amulet, a powerful talisman that he has been keeping for centuries, waiting for the one person capable of meeting its potential.
That person is Trinity, the forbidden child of a witch and a shifter. Only she can be the true Guardian of Bastet. But only if she can accept herself and her own powers, powers that everyone has told her she does not have. She's always believed she's just a dud.
But only a true Guardian can send the demon back to the nether-realm he came from. And to do that, Trinity will have to accept that she is powerful and capable, and worthy of being the true avatar of Bastet.
Bastet was a warrior-goddess, the woman with the head of a lion. Her Guardian must also embrace the warrior within.
Trinity will need to be a warrior, and a shifter, and a witch. And powerful in all ways. Because that warrior within her will need to fight against a traitor who is way too close.
Escape Rating A-: The mother/daughter dynamics (and grandmother/mother/daughter dynamics) remind me a bit of Brave, and that's a good reminder. A lot of what drives this story is the mother/daughter issue. Not just that Olivia makes no secret of her disappointment in Trinity, but also Gwendolyn Morrigan's rejection of her daughter Olivia for marrying a shifter. And most of all, Trinity's cousin Lily, and her feelings of rejection by her witch mother for also being an under-powered half-breed.
Trinity comes off as a bit self-absorbed at the beginning of the story (her mental dialog about turning into a cat once a month and playing with her cat-familiar as a cat is hilarious), but she definitely has reasons for where she starts out. And she certainly redeems herself.

Probably my favorite new paranormal series!
By Quirky Gurl
This book was so much fun to read. I'm a paranormal fan, and I'll admit that sometimes books tend to run together in my mind. But I don't have to worry about that with this new series.
The main character Trinity is a below average shape-shifter. Her dad morphs into big cat, while she spends her monthly transformation chasing mice along side her house cat. Her aloof and somewhat cold mother comes from a long line of powerful witches, yet Trinity can cast a decent spell to save her life. All that changes when a demon starts killing off other supernatural beings in her community and Trinity is called to action.
I loved every bit of this novel. From the quirky, fallible characters to the "oops" date Trinity has with a strange man, it's one compelling read. The Guardian of Bastet is chock-full of mythology, a decent dose of mystery and suspense and sets up future books very nicely. I keep thinking about this book, so I mean it when I say that I really hope the next one comes sooner rather than later!
**I received this book from NetGalley for review purposes.**

5 Wolfishly Delicious PAWS!
By Maghon Thomas
This is an excellent new book! It's fun, mysterious, full of fun supernatural beings, as well as a totally crazy plot twist that I was totally NOT expecting. How damn if it's not amazing! Plus, must I keep telling you about the HAWT werewolf, before you pick it up and read it yourself :)
Trinity is my total heroine. She's a vet- hello she has my career and love of animals- except that she's a kitty shifter- and I'm NOT! *sigh* LOL I think her description of her turning into a house cat monthly is hilarious. I mean, she calls herself a mad mouser LOL I still giggle when I watch each of my cats groom themselves. HAHA You don't wanna know what they look at me like while I do this. So, between work, and being a house kitty sometimes, she's also got a serious issue... Her supernatural friends are being killed off one by one, and though she would rather stay at home and hide, she somehow gets wrangled into the exact middle. I LOVE her character. She started out so normal without the whole crazy awesome kick ass chick. She literally grew into that when it was needed. Plus, I relate to her so much with her career being in that same career. However, I don't seem to have her crazy love life :)
I loved all of the side characters. Her parents, which made me grind my teeth, to her crazy grandma, to the HAWT werewolf, to the scary demon, to her sweet cousin, and all the other supernaturals. I cannot believe I'm about to say this... But my favorite-after said werewolf- would be the Vamper.... *GASP* I just said that out loud. I am liking a vamper. LOL I am seriously hoping that even though this was written like a stand alone, I am BEGGING and PRAYING that the author will take it upon my behalf and GIVE ME MORE!!! Like I will take anything! I loved this book!
The plot twist with the bad guys, seriously, I am still open mouthed. I don't know what to say. I totally didn't see that one coming. And then, the mythology tie in with the demons and the legend surrounding everything. I am seriously intrigued with how this came about. I really really liked the writing style. I need to say this one more time. Please gimme more of this book in some way. :) 5 WONDERFULLY SURPRISING AWESOME PAWS!!
