Five-star review of Spellmaker by Charlie N. Holmberg

 The first book in this duology (Spellbreaker) was good, and this one is even better. More action and tension, more magic, more character development and just the right amount of romance. When Elsie is jailed for being an unregistered spellbreaker, Bacchus Kelsey’s solution is to claim she’s his fiancée. They still have Lily Merton to deal with, Elsie’s still trying to find her biological family, and Bacchus can’t forgive the Duke for have a siphoning spell put on him to drain his energy and restore the Duke’s.

The story is finished, but I’d love to read more about the engaging characters, including a couple of new ones.
