5 Blue Ribbons from Romance Junkies!

"Viola Grace’s ARCHIVE is simply a delightful story that held my attention all the way through to the end. I absolutely loved the gremlin and how Ms. Grace presents him as such a whimsical character that even though she states that he’s ugly - he still comes off as lovable. Jinx is one strong young woman. She makes decisions and stands by them even in the face of adversity and I had to admire her for that. One of my favorite reasons for loving this story is the kick butt fun scene where she goes after what she wants - and gets it, with some help from the other members of the HALF-BLOOD CLUB.

The HALF-BLOOD CLUB is a wonderful series in which each story flows beautifully into the next and the characters play off one another with humorous results and wickedly funny scenes. Viola Grace is a talented writer with a lot of potential as well as a vivid imagination. "

Five Angels for Archive from FAR!

Archive

"Archive is book four of the Half Blood Club by Viola Grace. I have read quite a few books by Viola Grace and have never been disappointed. Archive is no exception, this book is part of a series I have not read before. It can be read by itself but I am heading out to get the others as soon as possible. Melissande may be a half-blood and a beta, unable to use spells, but she is no wimp. The winner of the play day and Melissandes’ choice is scrumptious, and definitely more than meets the eye. This was a fast run, spell writing, girl’s night, ogling naked men, confrontations and happily every after all in a quick gasp. This series appears to be a delight and Archive is a star. Thank you Ms. Grace for this fun frolic."

Melissande is the only living Archive in both the human and the paranormal worlds. An Archive is a person who is able to write any spell but is unable to use the spells created. Her grandmother has given Melissande the use of her home in the woods for safety and when Melissande arrives she learns that the werewolves in the surrounding area are intent on claiming her for their clans. They want the power controlling the Archive will bring. She is offered as the prize in a tournament for the strongest werewolves.

Sirnel is determined to be the winner of Melissande’s hand and fights with all he has to win. There is a threat to their happiness though. Melissande’s grandfather is the Alpha to a clan of wolves and in his evilness he is determined to control the granddaughter he loathes to claim. Melissande will be forced to call upon the force of her gift to change the very essence of her being in order to escape the claim upon her.

Archive is an engaging story that I could not put down. Melissande is a strong woman with a rare intelligence and sass that greatly appealed to me. Viola Grace does a wonderful job building the love between Melissande and Sirnel, creating a couple that really charmed me. The action in Archive is fast paced and exciting and adds depth to the great characters. This is definitely a story you won’t want to miss!

Reviewed by Joyfully Reviewed!!!

"Archive was a wonderful final chapter to the Half Blood series. I loved how Jinx is able to use her gift to thwart the dominating alpha and make things right for not only her but her mother. Additionally the author does know how to write a hot love scene which adds to my liking her works. While Archive is in a series it can be read as a stand alone book and you can read the series out of order but it won’t be as much fun."

Four Enchantments from Enchanted Reviews!

"This is one series you won't want to miss!  Fantasy, humor, and romance all
thrown together.  As I had not read the previous three novellas, I was a
little confused in the beginning, but quickly caught up.  I am sure my
experience would have been enriched if I had read the stories in order, but
I was surprised at how quickly I fell in love with all the members of
the *Half-Blood
Club*.  Jinx is a great character - loving and generous with those she
likes, but a terror to those on her bad side.  Her gremlin is the perfect
pet for a half-blood werewolf, and added a lot of the humor in this tale."
