First in a funny, sexy new paranormal romance series from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Alyssa Day.

He's a warrior, hardened by years of protecting his town from vampire attack.
She's a garden witch who sees the world in shades of sunshine and delight.
Opposites don't only attract, they go supernova in this sizzling tale of magic and mayhem.

“Alejandro, meet Bob,” Rose said, and he quickly looked around the room, only to confirm that nobody was there.
“Bob? Who is Bob?”
“Bob is my cat,” she said, that quicksilver grin again crossing her face and then vanishing. “The basilisks got him just after I rescued Ninja.”
“The basilisk attacked your cat after you rescued a ninja?” he repeated slowly, realizing he’d been right. There was no way a woman this beautiful could have a personality to match her looks.
She was nuts.


Warning: This book contains magic, basilisks, warriors, a crazy family, Granny, sibling rivalry, trolls, carnivorous leprechauns, bad boys, paranormal romance, humor, laughter, fantasy, potions, romance, kisses, and a happily ever after. Read at your own risk!

I HAD to keep reading this story to the end, breaking only for -- or sometimes reading DURING or interrupting -- sleep and food. It had some new-to-me magical beings, a to-sigh-for romance, and we can't forget GRANNY! Actually, she reminds me of me mother, who loves to talk non-stop ... without any filters! I can laugh at Rose's Granny, instead of shrinking in embarrassment with my mom. The Cardinal witches are a lively bunch and offer lots of laughs with their "original" personalities, and the story builds with more challenges and hotter attraction between Rose and Alejandro. Love it! Congratulations, Alyssa Day -- I'll be reading more from you!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good

Alejandro is a rookie agent for the Psy-Ops division of the FBI, meaning he investigates paranormal related events. The first call he and his partner get, is to help get rid of a basilisk infestation in a witch’s garden.
Rose is one of the Cardinal witches, a gifted potion maker and quite determined to fix the issue with the basilisks herself.
Alejandro isn’t what she was expecting, and it’s not long before they start falling for each other.

This is a novella set in the author’s Atlantean world, which means you can expect a few cameos from that series. Alejandro also appears in the Tiger’s Eye mystery series as a guest every so often, and this book tells the tale that is frequently referenced in those books.
It’s a quick and enjoyable read, with a crazy family of witches and a few laugh out loud moments.
Recommended for PNR fans who want a quick read and fans of the author’s Atlantis series.

What can I say about Alyssa Day that hasn't already been said? This is one of those books that just make you feel good even as you go through the angst of the plot. The strong characters, the quirky personalities that are polar opposites, the non-stop chatter of a granny and of course the fated love romance. All that rolled up in the feel goods and humor. What more could you ask for? I loved it.

3.0 out of 5 stars I was able to finish it just fine. But I won't read another Alyssa Day book ...

Alejandro's Sorceress by Alyssa Day is a typical case of trying to hard. Rose is a garden witch in a slapstick family of garden witches. Alejandro is a badass psy-cop who has come with his partner to rid the family of basilisks that are taking over the garden. Unfortunately his partner ends up a stone statue, and mayhem ensues as romance and slapstick comedy intertwine. Well...mostly slapstick comedy.

I think Alyssa Day must have written this after reading some of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series. Janet Evanovich can pull this type of slapstick comedy off. It seems Alyssa Day is trying to hard to imitate her. There is even the elderly grandmother who runs around hitting on guys she shouldn't. At least Stephanie Plum's grandmother mostly hit on guys her own age.

It's a cute story. I was able to finish it just fine. But I won't read another Alyssa Day book based off this one, I just wasn't all that impressed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lighthearted with really funny visuals
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2018

After having enjoyed the Warriors of Poseidon series, I was delighted to discover that connected books had been written since I somehow missed them. The Cardinal Witches series starts off with a story about how Alejandro and Rose meet up, and then delves into the many interesting occurrences which take place afterward. What transpires is frequently humorous, as situations are filled with comical incidents and laugh inducing comments. Alyssa Day makes ALEJANDRO’S SORCERESS entertainingly enjoyable all the way through.

Working in the Paranormal Operations division of the FBI has Alejandro Vasquez being sent out to deal with all types of supernatural creatures that are causing chaos. His latest assignment sends him to Ohio in order to stop basilisks from troubling a family of garden witches. But what he finds upon his arrival at the home of Rose Cardinal is anything but an ordinary task.

Numerous moments in ALEJANDRO’S SORCERESS are lighthearted, and the really funny visuals I pictured while reading definitely made me grin. From the high-spirited grandmother to bantering with friends to Alejandro teasing Rose and her coming back with clever retorts, I thought scenes were imaginative with amusing reactions and lots of sharp wit being expressed. There was even an appearance by several favorite characters from previous releases, and their addition had me smiling. But this story easily stands alone and is a fabulous beginning to a fascinating series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very good read
Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2018

I thought Alejandro's sorceress was a very good book because it had a lot of humor and I could identify with Roses Dysfunctional Family. I liked the Chemistry Between Rose and Alejandro. It had just the right amount of romance in it but I don't know if I would buy falling in love with someone in one day. That was the only thing that I did not like about it. The relationship, in my opinion, should have been a little longer, like at least 6 months, to lend even fictional credibility to it. But overall I gave this author a 5-star rating because overall the book was a very good read. Any book that I cannot put down and have to read to the end, is a very good book.

Alejandro and Rose.

This is a short, funny story that ties into the Warriors of Poseidon series and just makes this world grow even further for me in so many good ways.

I seriously enjoyed the witty content, the baby Basilick's invading the Cardinal witches yard was a funny spin, the first meeting of Rose and Alejandro was steamy and that heat just kept rising throughout the book.
Having Justice, Ven and Alaric pop in is always a pleasure.

I can't wait for more from the Cardinal Witches they seem like a quirky and wonderful family.
