Subtle Magic (Gwar'Arth of Karhu Ridge Book 1) Kindle Edition

Originally published as part of the "Wickedly Exotic Spring Erotic Wonderland" Anthology, Subtle Magic by Josette Reuel is an erotic ménage short story about a woman who finds she was always just as she was supposed to be.

Growing up different had made life difficult for Harley Hawen, a Rhai’ud without magic; she had buried herself in her cooking and baking. Her only friend, her cousin and roommate, Jenna, was a true Rhai’ud with the looks and magic.

Resigned to a life alone and magicless, Harley worked at her parents diner and spent free nights with Jenna. Then six months ago a group of men on motorcycles rolled into town and Harley and Jenna’s dreams had become tormented.

Magic has a subtle way of making things happen.

Chase and Diesel were Gwar’Arth — bear shifters. The Den they had grown up in was becoming too tight for all of the younger males that were looking for mates, so they had brought their new Den members to a new home on Karhu Ridge.

Chase and Diesel were two-thirds of a Triad mating. They had found each other as young boys, but had never found their third. So, they rode into town that first day knowing that they had a third for their Triad out there somewhere, but they hadn’t realized that she would walk right out in front of them when they were least expecting it.

For six months the woman tormented them and did everything to keep away from them, but they had had enough. She would realize that they were all meant to be together, if it was the last thing both Gwar’Arth men did.

About the Author

Josette Reuel spent many years in the corporate world writing stuffy computer software manuals, until one day a shape-shifting dragon kidnapped her and dragged her off to be his destined mate... as the words flowed on to the page, she realized that it was time to fulfill her lifelong dream of becoming a published author.

An avid reader from her earliest memories, Josette enjoys many genres; however her current passion is anything Romance. Her love of Fantasy and the Paranormal tends to come out in all of her writing with strong alpha heroes, each with a little something extra.

Finding the Dragon -- the first book in the Dásreach Council Novels -- was her debut novel. The future promises to be full of more great releases.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot, steamy, paranormal, quick read
Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2017
Who turned up the heat? Wow! This read is steamy, yet, gives a story line, which is rare in a lot of romance stories nowadays. Jenna comes with baggage, which after you learn her story, you completely understand. However, she's being watched by not one but two smoking hot men. Diesel and Chase, who just so happen to hate each other. The battle for love begins.

This story had me with from page one and kept me to the end. I love the way it was written in different points of views and nicely done at that.

I have read the Wolves for the Holiday 1.1 & 1.2, by this author. I'm just waiting on 1.3. I cannot wait to read more books by this author!

4.0 out of 5 stars Can she find magic and love?
Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2017

A great short story of a young woman finally coming into her own. Unhappy with herself, how she looks, and what she felt were her shortcomings within her family of magical beings. Why didn't she have magical powers? Along come two wolf shifters, settling down not to far from her town, to begin a new pack as the population had grown too big in the pack they had been in. They have known for since they were young that they were bonded mates, but were still looking and hoping to finally find their 3rd fated mate. This story tells of how they found each other and how she discovers she has always had power. It's up to not only the guys, but her family, to convince her that she does indeed have magic and that she is a beautiful women that is deserving of these two wonderful and loving shifters. Hope this is enough to get you to pick up this marvelous story, as I do not like to give spoilers. I recommend this delightful story to all who love paranormal romance and get a kick out of a caterpillar getting it's wings and learning to fly (in this case, believing in themselves and love).

4.0 out of 5 stars BBW Sexy Fun
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2016
This is a short sexy paranormal romance.
Haley is a BBW who has always been disappointed because she has none of the family's magic. Her talent is in what she bakes for the diner and whenever she is stressed. In the last few months she has not been able to sleep without sexy dreams of two guys who are new to town.
Chase and Diesel are bear shifters who have been together for years, but have always known they had a mate that would complete their triad. Now they just have to claim her without terrifying her.
I would have preferred a bit more story to go with the sex. The characters are good and have so much more to offer.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Lovers Triad
Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2016
Sometimes you find your magic and sometimes your magic has to find you. Harley came from a magical family but never thought that she had any magical tendencies of her own. One day she gets nearly run over by Chase and Diesal and her life will never be the same again. Who are these men and why can't she stop thinking about them? Chase and Diesal are bear shifters trying to find their triad mate. Can they convince her of how much they need her and will her magic bring them together? This is another hit by author Josette Reuel that you'll not want to miss out on. It's primed to be the first of a series perhaps continuing with the story of Harley's cousin Jenna.

4.0 out of 5 stars love, magic and sex
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2015
Josette Reuel never fails to deliver! This book is a bit of a different venue for her, but it was well written and the characters extremely well developed. Hot and steamy sex scenes make this a page turner! This story had all of my essential requirements; love, magic and sex! Can't get better than that! Thanks Josette Reuel! Anxiously awaiting the second book!
