Yolanda Sfetsos has built an interesting tale of what can happen when two people don’t trust each other. Oh what a terrible web we weave....Alyce and Ross were engaged/dating/lovers for five years. I’d think somewhere in that time they might have trusted one another with the fact that one of them, Alyce, was a witch and the other, Ross, was a demon hunter who was supposed to protect her. Nope, didn’t happen. Not until after he came after her with a knife. Not until the restraining order for three years. Not until Alyce is almost dead from having her soul sucked out of her a little at a time by the whirling dervish demon she went to in a quest for fame and fortune.

This is almost funny if it weren’t such an exaggerated version of what can happen when relationships lack trust. Luckily Ross finally gets enough courage, after putting her in chains, to tell her who he is and that he’s always known her little secret about being a witch. Finally they can try to resolve the issues between them with some communication and get rid of the demon.

Ms. Sfetsos could be one of those relationship counselors who preach trust, openness and talking to one another. Instead she’s given us a great fictionalized view of what could happen when couples don’t bother to use those tools.
