Saving Eve: A Companion Novel to The Witching Pen Series Kindle Edition

by Dianna Hardy (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

See all formats and editions
Author's Note: Saving Eve is a companion novel to The Witching Pen Series, and should be read after The Last Dragon. It is not directly related to The Witching Pen Series arc - it is a bonus read for those who want to know what happened to Lucifer after The Last Dragon.

Amid long, wild grass, a snake slithers, hidden.
Hidden until a man opens his eyes...

Awaking with amnesia in St Mary's Hospital, after a near-fatal freak accident, he is known only as Luc. With the help of Evie Gold, the kind, young woman who found him, he starts a new life - a second chance, a clean slate.

A bond burgeons between them.

But disturbing dreams of dark deeds become waking recountings. A blackness is uncoiling - seductive, familiar and dangerously provocative.

An ancient craving stirs; an old addiction rises.

Nothing is as it seems, and as reality crumbles, Luc finds himself asking, not just who he is, but...

Who is Evie?

From the author of the international bestselling Witching Pen series, Dianna Hardy takes a seed from The Last Dragon, and brings you an existential story of two beings in search of completion.

Length: Short novel at just over 40,000 words.
Genre: Surreal Fiction; Creation Myth
Written in British English.

Review

★★★★★ "Dianna Hardy's fresh and unique craft appears effortless. Her words never fail to move the reader, engaging them fully and opening up a vivid world. Truly, her striking literary style is as beautiful as it is original." - Bex 'n' Books
★★★★★ "...perfect. There is no other word to use for what I felt for this book. I loved Lucifer, and I knew I would enjoy this book even though Dianna Hardy had stated that it changed from the way she had originally planned it, but after reading the book I, personally, couldn't have asked for a better story. It was meant to be this way. This was how the story was supposed to go, and it was perfect." - author, Elizabeth Morgan.
★★★★★ "Hang on to your hats though, because this is not a typical romance novel! There are several twists and turns that surprised me completely - I was in shock at some of the revelations towards the end of the story. This book took me on an emotional roller coaster ride!" - Book Reviews by Lynn

Dianna Hardy

Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.
Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Dianna Hardy is an author of cross-genre fantasy fiction, most notable for her explicit-yet-soulful, dark-yet-light style, and the raw, intense Eye of the Storm werewolf series. But her heart-warming Once Times Thrice series proves she can weave her way through contemporary romantic fiction as well as fantasy.

She loves to bring you stories that are action-packed, fast-paced and not short of heat, with the focus on character development, relationship dynamics, and the plot. She writes full-length novels and short fiction.

Since 2012, a number of her books have reached the top 30 of the Fantasy, Romance, and Horror charts on Kindle and Apple Books.

In her private life, Dianna loves anything paranormal (she doesn't really consider it "para"), organic food, coffee, walking barefoot, the smell of the woods after rain, and summer days.

She lives in South Hampshire, U.K., with her partner and their daughter, where she writes full-time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dianna never stops amazing me with her writing.
Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2015
I received a free copy of the book from the author for my honest opinion.

Dianna never stops amazing me with her writing. With each story of hers that I have read she knows just the right words to say to open my eyes and mind or at least make me think about the things that we have been taught. If your mind is already open she gives you more to think about and opens your mind even more. I love reading Dianna’s books because I have learned something from each and every one that I have read. You’ve heard the saying “My cup runneth over”? Well my cup will never be full or run over. I will always have room for more. My cup doesn’t have a bottom in it.

I love how in Saving Eve that Dianna saw the good and the bad in both Eve aka Evie and Lucifer aka Lucky or Luc for short. We all have a good side and a bad side. With some of us we only show our good side but once in a while something will set us off and our bad side will sneak out until we come to our sense’s and gain control of our bad side again. Then there are some of us who lets our bad side show at all times but once in a while we will let the good side of us peep out.

I also loved how she took biblical characters and told their stories and lives; the way she saw it and gave us a more in depth look into their lives and the people they were and who they became. Eve was a quiet and shy person who stayed to herself. Eve was a lonely woman who thought she was going to spend the rest of her life all alone. Then she met Luc who changed all of that and changed the way she looked at life. Luc had been looking for Eve for a very long time. He searched all four corners of the Earth from one end to the other.

Any writer who can cause you to like someone that you were taught growing up to hate is one amazing author and person in my book. You know it’s not just the words that you are reading that show you the good in Lucifer it is what is in the author’s heart too. It just shows me that Dianna can find good in almost anybody.

There is something about Eve and Lucifer being together that means something to me but I can’t quiet put my finger on it just yet. Not knowing what it is that I feel like I am missing something is frustrating me to the point where I want pull my hair out. UGG! I know that Saving Eve is going to be on my mind for a while until I figure out what it is that I am missing. It has something to do with both Eve and Luc like everyone else as well; having good and evil in them. I don’t know what it is but it is like when their together not only are they balanced but so is the world in its own way.

If you have not read Saving Eve yet then I recommend that you do right now. That is if you have read The Witching Pen Series and The Last Dragon a companion novel to The Witching Pen Series first. Otherwise you will have a difficult time understanding what is going on in Saving Eve. While you are at it why not check out her series Eye of the Storm too. Thanks Dianna for writing such amazing novels and giving me the opportunity to read them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dianna Hardy Does It Again!
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2015
This is the fifth and final book, and also a spin off of the Witching Pen Series. I loved it!

Luc (or Lucifer) is a completely interesting character. He intrigued me in The Last Dragon, as he is not evil, but as a Fallen Angel, darkness surrounds him. He feeds on the pain and suffering of humans, but he has always loved Eve. This is his story of what happened to him after the dragon awoke and changed the world forever.

Evie is a wonderful character. I am glad to get to know her better. She is the head of the research and analysis team in Earth Sciences at Oxford University. When she finds a stranger, hurt and suffering with amnesia, she feels responsible for him and takes him into her home.

When I heard the author was writing this story, I became very excited. I love The Witching Pen series and Lucifer's story is most definitely the icing on the cake! I was completely hooked from beginning to end. The story starts ten years after the dragon's awakening and the Earth has seen major climate change due to the constant earthquakes that have rumbled ever since. I love how the story follows both Luc and Evie as they try to figure things out and is told from both of their perspectives. Hang on to your hats though, because this is not a typical romance novel! There are several twists and turns that surprised me completely - I was in shock at some of the revelations towards the end of the story. This book took me on an emotional roller coaster ride! It made me laugh and it made me cry. I love both of these characters and, though they are only fictional, they seem to be as real as you and me. I feel sad that this series has come to an end, but I have loved every minute that I have spent with all of the characters of the series. The author has tied all of the events the characters had to face in the series into an amazing journey. I will miss them all, but I can always visit them within the pages of the books on my Kindle.

Dianna Hardy is a fantastic author! I am a HUGE fan of hers! I love her writing style, which is fast paced and fluid, and the flow of the story is wonderful. Her characters are flawed, but this makes them extremely lifelike and likable in my eyes.

As this book contains scenes of explicit sex, I do not recommend this book for readers younger than 17. However, I HIGHLY recommend this book (PLEASE read the Witching Pen novella's and The Last Dragon first though!) if you love erotic paranormal romances full of sexy demons, angels and witches! Oh, and dragons! - Lynn Worton

I honestly wasn't sure about this. In some ways it was quite clever and certainly quite deep but it left me feeling lacking something which I found most unusual as I love this author.

Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2015
Dianna Hardy is a writing genius! I came into reading this with high expectation since I had read The Witching Pen series and was already intrigued by Lucifer. She greatly surpassed those expectations!

I just could not put it down and had to read in one sitting. I had to see where the story was going. It definitely took a turn I never saw coming or would have suspected. After finishing and closing the book, all I could say was WOW that was INCREDIBLE!

This is the story of Luc and Evie, of how they meet, the pull between them and their inner demons fighting against them.

I recommend reading The Witching Pen Series first so that you can fully appreciate Saving Eve. You will not be disappointed!

Another 5 stars!

Only one word for this excellent book. Wow!
Absolutely stunning read, which I won't spoil, just to say it drags you through with a fascinating twist near the end, which was totally unexpected.
Has to be on my read it twice list! Does help if you know at least the outline of the earlier books in the sequence.
