Theft of Shadows

 5 OUT OF 5 RIBBONS

I salute Naomi Bellis on her amazingly creative mastery in the blending of the paranormal and historical genres. . . . a fantastic and original storyline, probably the most original and well-written plot I have read this year. Ms. Bellis has created a magnificent, powerful and visceral world in her novels, and THEFT OF SHADOWS is a brilliant addition to this series. I truly cannot wait to read more from this talented author.

“Erotic and beautifully written … a fantastic book from beginning to end.”

Bellis’ heroes are wonderful adventurers - like a Musketeer and the Scarlet Pimpernel all rolled into one. Her heroines are always strong, independent women, willing to risk everything to save the day.

A complex yet intriguing tale, THEFT OF SHADOWS will keep readers on the edge of their seats. . . I highly recommend this captivating novel.

Bellis envelops readers in the chilling atmosphere of her latest spy thriller.  She skillfully sucks you into the tangled plot, captivating you with exciting, sensual, vibrant characters and their fight against evil.

–   Kathe Robin, Romantic Times BOOKreviews, 4 and ½ stars.

 

Draw Down the Darkness

 

Dark, sumptuous, powerful, emotional adventure romances with a touch of the paranormal are Bellis’ trademark.  She sweeps you into a world as romantic and sensual as it is dangerous and mysterious and allows your fantasies free rein. Her strong voice and powerful plot put her on the top of this month’s paranormal historical readers list.

- Kathe Robin, Romantic Times BOOKreviews.  TOP PICK, April 2007

 

Bellis's second novel (after Step into Darkness) is a Georgian romantic adventure that blends historical and magical elements to make a satisfying potion with a strong bite . . .  This lively adventure features vibrant leads and a tight plot, with well-drawn secondary characters and, in Waring, a bad guy readers will love to hate.

- Publishers Weekly

 

Bellis' second paranormal-steeped historical is a particularly beguiling blend of subtly nuanced characters, elegant writing, and an intriguing plot expertly laced with danger, desire, and dark magic.
