Fate has destined four strangers to stop an evil woman in gaining the power to rule the world. Lord Riel Evann-Sin, legendary in his sword play both in and out of bed; Tamara Narbril is a Daughter of the Night or otherwise known as one of the feared Hell Hags; Kaibyn Zefeyr is a demon who helps ease the loneliness women feel and he is darn good at it and finally Caineu Cree has spent centuries longing for his woman. Now these four have to go against the Queen of all queens, one who is feared and reviled by all who stand in her way. It will take every inch of power these four possess-human and otherwise_ to stop the Queen of the Daughters of the night and save humanity from her wrath. Along the way, love finds Evann-Sin and Tamara. Will they survive the upcoming battle to enjoy love’s first kiss? Or will the Queen destroy them in her path to greatness? Read Longing’s Levant of the Wind World series to see what happens.

Longing’s Levant is the latest from Ms. Boyett-Campo and is a thrilling ride filled with mystery, exciting characters and a setting that is truly magical. Ms. Boyett-Campo is a wonderful author that will surely delight and tempt the reader into new heights of their imagination. Riel Evann-Sin is a dangerous man who is bent on getting Tamara in bed yet he also displays tenderness towards her. Tamara is a wonderful mix of femininity as well as strength as she deals with Evann-Sin’s desire for her as well as her fight against an evil she cannot stop without help. Ms. Boyett-Campo delivers wonderful character driven story that has the reader guessing what will come next. The only drawback with this was that Longing’s Levant had a few too many main characters to understand and care about. It got a little confusing to keep track who was the hero and heroine sometimes.

Ms. Boyette-Campo is a delightful author that will tell a wonderful tale to the reader, draw them in and transport them to a place only in the imagination. The interplay between characters was interesting yet alive with feeling. Her secondary characters helped a little bit with keeping the plot going but the four main characters (Tamara, Evann-Sin, Caineu & Kaibyn) are the main meat of the storyline here. The mystery that surrounds the queen’s desire will captivate the reader as well. It will literally keep the reader on the edge of their seats!!  By creating this wonderful book, Ms. Boyette-Campo has delivered a wonderful story that will literally keep the reader guessing what happens next. Longing’s Levant truly a gem in disguise and will transport the reader to the edge of their imagination.
