Readers are told at the beginning that human Torsten Rindle is tired of his job working with the supernatural and is just about ready to leave it behind when he meets witch Melissande Jones, who needs his help. So begins their opposites-attract love story, which is sure to entertain readers of paranormal romance.

I'd been annoyed with myself for taking so long to read this book, and then once I started, took a while for me to find the time to sit and read - but how appropriate that I finish it just an hour or so before I get ready to go out to watch the lunar eclipse for the super blood wolf moon. Now it almost seems intentional, since in the book, they're having to wait for the blood moon to perform the spell, and there's an eclipse that night.

Wonderful book, loved the characters, loved the story and all the character background. As always, the romance is great, and so sexy. The characters are quirky and funny, and also so noble as they do their best to try to do the right thing, even when it means struggling with their wants and needs and a battle between the heart and mind. I always enjoy the Paris setting, and the descriptions of magic - such beautiful imagery. And it's always nice to see characters from other stories - makes me want to go back and read their books again, but there are still so many books I've not read yet.

I'm sad that this is Michele Hauf's last Nocturne with Harlequin, because this is Harlequin's last Nocturne. I know she's going to be writing some different things for a while, but I do hope she returns to this world of Beautiful Creatures that she's created. It's really one of my favorite worlds to visit in books. I've enjoyed these characters so much.

I received a copy of this book via NetGalley.

This was well written, characters were excellent absolutely loved this book.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the advance read.

Torsten Rindle longs for a normal life away from the field of supernatural protection where he's made his living. While working his last job, he's approached by a beguiling witch named Melissande Jones who is in need of his protection because she's been a target of every supernatural being because of an item in her possession. If it falls in the wrong hands, it could be deadly. Torsten reluctantly agrees to help Melissande and sparks fly. This is a fun read in Harlequin's Nocturne series. I enjoyed this one and definitely fitting of my reads for the month of October.

Absolutely love Michele Hauf's paranormal romances and this one doesn't fail. I like how the main characters are so perfect for each other. Solid writing and dialogue kept "This STrange Witchery" moving along quite nicely. GOOD!

This is the last book in the Harlequin Nocturne series. I enjoyed this book as I really like books with witches and romance. Very well written and I enjoyed all of the characters and the different ways of handling monsters
