Witch of the Wolves by Kaylee Archer

Tracy’s Rating: 2/2.5 of 5 stars

Series: Witch of the Wolves #1

Release Date: September 30, 2025

Cordelia Levine is a young witch living in Victorian London and working for her aunt managing an apothecary for the supernatural. But her life takes an unexpected turn when she is kidnapped by the brooding werewolf, Bishop Danvers at her estranged father’s command and is thrown into the turbulent world of the Albion wolf pack. Cordelia becomes a pawn in a power struggle, her unique bloodline making her both a target and an asset.

I had really high hopes for this book and the idea of a witch with dual supernatural heritage was an easy sell for me, but unfortunately, the execution just didn’t work for me. The book is written the first person, which is always annoying to me, Cordelia’s magic was minimal, and the romance was never developed and utilized insta-love rather than building a relationship. The book definitely had potential, but an overly predicable plot, no adherence to the strictures of the Victorian era, a juvenile feel to the book despite a bit of spice, and unnecessary drama with a cliffhanger ending, just left me feeling disappointed. I am sure there will be readers who will enjoy this book, but for me it was a miss.
