Book Shelf: Magical Compass (Supernatural Prison Story #2) by Jaymin Eve

Tyson Compass, as one of the famed Compass quads, is not a wizard used to living with regrets. Except for one: Grace Carter.

Grace is a healer witch he rejected many years ago. After completely disappearing from his life, she has returned, and turned his world upside down. The attraction between them flares strongly, but she has not forgotten or forgiven his callous rebuff when they were teens.

Tyson does everything he can to prove he will never hurt her again, and just when he thinks there might be a chance for them, she has to leave again. She makes him promise not to follow her - a promise he honors for as long as he can. But after almost two months with no word, he’s done waiting. He’s going to find his girl.

With a little help from his brothers, he tracks her down, only to find Grace betrayed by her family ... tortured ... hurt. His rage knows no bounds. He will do everything he can to bring her family to justice, to find out why they turned on her.

By unlocking these secrets, though, he will discover that Grace is so much more than just a healer witch. She holds a secret that could save the world of Faerie. Or destroy it.

Review:

Jaymin Eve is back with another engrossing instalment in her Supernatural Prison Story series with Magical Compass. Magical Compass is a romantic, action and adventure driven tale full of humour, danger and exciting bonds of family.

Tyson Compass isn’t a wizard used to living with regrets. As one of the infamous Compass Quads, Tyson has spent most of his life making tough decisions and there’s nothing he wishes he could do different….except where Grace Carter is concerned. As a teenager, Tyson rejected the healer witch and now years later, she has come back into his life and turned his world upside down. The attraction and desire Tyson feels for Grace is nothing he has experienced before and everything inside him tells him to claim her. But Grace was hurt by Tyson once before, so when she asks him for space, he reluctantly agrees. Time apart is hard and when Grace’s absence stretches, Tyson goes in search of his witch. Grace spent years trying to let go of the feelings she had for Tyson, but one moment in his presence was enough to drag up those feelings once again. Space seemed like the best plan but having been taking hostage by her own family, Grace yearns for Tyson to find her. With the help of his brothers, Tyson is excited to be closing in on Grace but the fury he experiences when he finds her, hurt and tortured, at the hands of people who should love her, knows no bounds. He vows to protect her but as he begins to unlock the truth about what Grace really is, Tyson and his witch will soon learn Grace holds the power to save the world of Faerie. Or destroy it……

Magical Compass is the latest novel in the Supernatural Prison world deftly created by Jaymin Eve and this time brings to life the romance between Compass brother Tyson and the witch Grace who has been the object of his interest for a number of novels. Personally I found Magical Compass to be another solid read. Eve once more packs a lot of adventure and excitement into the story while weaving Tyson and Grace’s romance together. Much of Magical Compass is spent seeing Tyson try to find Grace and then to help her find her missing mother while also trying to unravel the mystery of who—and what—she really is.

As always I loved seeing the previous characters all return with the growing pack as focal as ever. Jessa and Braxton and Mischa and Maximus once again return alongside their adorable babies who are so darn sweet. On the whole, I’ve really come to enjoy the closeness of these characters. I wasn’t won over in the beginning but as time as progressed I’ve come to enjoy seeing them stand alongside each other more and more with each novel.

Given that Tyson and Grace’s relationship has been a bit push and pull for a number of novels, I was pleased to see they were very much “all in” in Magical Compass. Jaymin Eve makes it clear very early on that Tyson has decided that Grace is the one for him, while Grace has always known Tyson was meant for her. I liked it. It meant there was no back and forth between them and we could instead focus on more pressing storyline arcs without all that unnecessary angst.

I was surprised by the inclusion of the four Faerie princesses to the series although I’d be lying if I didn’t admit it opens up a lot of storyline possibilities. I’m most excited for Louis’s story next, but I’m already pairing he and Jacob off. I really want to see Louis with Lizzie and Jacob with Justice---and their names go together so surely they’re meant to be!

Fun and enjoyable, Magical Compass is a well told and enjoyable supernatural read. I can’t wait to see what Jaymin Eve does next with this series and will be looking to get my hands on the next novel featuring Louis as soon as it becomes available!
