Blurb for Savannah Sacrifice:
Answers that she must find… A truth that he can’t escape…And ghosts up to no good…
Being a demi-god has its privileges. For the young nymph, Starling Jackson, it means the gift of seduction and more than that—near immortality. Yet, when her life is filled with spirits, immortality may not be all it’s cracked up to be.
With the help of her bodyguard, Jasper Gray, and secret books left to her by her late-mother’s friend, she may have found the answer to all of her problems. First, they must find a way to locate the books in their enemy’s hotbed all while staying safe and most importantly—without falling in love.
In the battles between the head and the heart and enemies and friends, tough decisions must be faced—and sacrifices made.
Excerpt:
It was a strange feeling to know that she was probably going to die and to not really care. The last year of Starling Jackson’s life had been filled with ghosts, lies, her mother’s murder, and the death of an enemy—a death fraught with dangerous threats. Finally, the time had come to make her stand against her world and the ghosts and enemies who inhabited it, even if that stand cost her the only thing she had left to give: her life.
She walked through the Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport and to the baggage claim area where a cluster of people moved in a precarious dance of personalities, the boldest of which pushed to the front of the group while the rest escaped to the far recesses of the room. Starling stood in the middle, pushed back by those struggling for a place at the front and nudged forward to stand as a barrier from the melee by those who hated the entire situation.
Don’t let them push you. You are stronger than this … take control, the familiar voice of the ghost Asclepius echoed in her mind.
“Oh, I’ll take control.” Reaching into her bag, Starling took out her pills and swallowed down a tablet. That made six. Or was it seven pills today? Regardless, it was a new record. There was no doubt the medicine was losing its effect in keeping the spirits at bay. If she didn’t find the Libros Umbrarum books soon, there wouldn’t be any break from the endless whispers and threats of the ghosts that invaded her reality.
I’ll be back … You will have to listen to me soon enough … Asclepius quieted.
“Not if I have my way.”

I received a copy of "Savannah Sacrifices" by Danica Winters to read and provide an honest review. I enjoyed reading this tale that gave the rare HEA that is currently lacking in so many supernatural romances these days!
The tale of Starling the Nymph who along with a long line of nymphs have been cursed with killing anyone they dare fall in love with.
Starling gets an extra handful of problems when she finds out that she's not only a nymph but a medium as well. The constant struggle of dealing with the voices in her head of ghosts making demands can only be tuned out with the use if a pharmaceutical that another breed of Demi-gods need to cure their own personal curse.
Starling strikes out on her own after a tragic loss to try and deal with her problems . Luckily for her Jasper, her shadow/ bodyguard has trailed her from Las Vegas and steps in to try and help her remove the curse as well as silence the voices all the while trying to protect Starling & himself from the curse her love could cause. Jasper also has to put his investigation into the Vultures on hold & put his duties to the Sisterhood on the backburner to insure that Starling does not meet the same grim fate as her mother.
The book is a quick read. It has fun characters, imaginative plot lines, and a little bit of action, romance, puzzles to solve.... It's an enjoyable read for fans of multiple genres.
