Description
Kamryn Vale is a Dahnan witch who wants nothing more than to complete her studies in the World Between and return to her normal life. But when a sister-witch is murdered and another kidnapped, Kamryn discovers a dark magic so terrifying it threatens the safety of both her worlds. Driven by the need to help in the investigation, Kamryn must deal with the complications of working with the mysterious Watchtower Knights.
After two hundred years in exile, the Knights have been invited back to protect the Witches at the Collegium. They can't afford any mistakes, and Alex knows his attraction for the fire witch has trouble written all over it. With one eye on the investigation and the other on Kamryn, Alex must balance his obligation to duty with the needs of his heart.

WOW! I love when I discover a new author who totally and completely blows me out of the water! And Delwyn Jenkins did just that, in her very first book!
Called by Fire has all the makings of the beginning of a series but reads well as a stand alone. I admit it's just wishful thinking as for the series.
Kamryn Vale is a Dahnan witch finishing up her training in the In Between. She's a powerful fire witch who tries to stay out if trouble. Only life is never that simple. Her brother dared to steal a prominent Sentinel's girlfriend, then gave him a bloody nose, ego is involved. He has decided to make Kam' s life miserable.. While Jam is trying to avoid him she enters a small room, that is already occupied (by a sexy man in his bath). Just what she needs more man troubles. Only this man is way more than he seems.
Alex has served The Watchtower for over two hundred years, the last knight to be called was 193 years previously. For political reasons the Watchtower has been banned from the witches compound. Only they are loyal and have continued to serve. But there is trouble that they can't resolve. One witch is dead and another is missing. It's the knights of The Watchtower's duty to find out what happened. NOT to flirt with the witches. Only there is something special about Kam and Alex wants more.
Alex and Kam combine forces to discover who killed the witch and hopefully save the missing one. As they go their team grows to include Kam's Quatre, three more powerful witches, and Alex's Cohort, a total of six knights. All sorts of intriguing connections are made and we can only hope for more.
The deeper the team delves the more secrets they uncover. To the knight's dismay information has been lost and witches have been fed half truths and innuendo for almost two hundred years. Instead of being trained they are raised into a political mess where cover up and greed rules.
The worst thing is the powers that be refuse to believe in true evil. Malleous, their true enemy has slithered into the minds of the Primus over the years and fed their egos, their greed and their lust for power, totally eroding all that was good.
Powerful, intense and completely combustible!
Ms. Jenkins wraps up this battle but leaves enough threads dangling that an excellent series could spin from this. I seriously hope this is the case (I may have mentioned this before).
Well done!!!
