Even though spider-kin Liliana sees the past, the future and into men's souls, she can still be surprised. After all, no one wakes up wondering if they'll be accused of murder by a werewolf.

Wolf-kin Peter Teague of Fort Bragg's Criminal Investigation Division analyzes the venom in six dead soldiers. The victims were killed by a spider-kin, and Liliana is the only spider-kin in Fayetteville.

Pete's handsome boss, the dangerous fae Colonel Bennet, watches Liliana with burning ember eyes, but refuses to call his investigator off.

It's up to Liliana to keep Pete from executing her and convince the skeptical scientist she's not the murderer, all while keeping her new friend from getting eaten by the real killers. And if that's not enough, she might even have to socialize!

How will she survive the paranormal mystery that puts her as the prime suspect?

Precise Oaths is the first book in the Liliana and the Fae of Fayetteville series, urban fantasy Fae romance for adults containing a strong female lead, intense action, a diverse cast of charming characters, offbeat humor, Fae and shifters like you’ve never seen them before, and a touch of slow burn spider romance.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"A romp of a book." -Angela Knight

"Precise Oaths is tremendous fun. It's hard to write a thought-provoking book that's also fun to read, but Paige pulled it off in spades." -Angela Knight, NYT Best Selling paranormal romance author

"Liliana is spider-kin--a neurodivergent loner who tells fortunes and longs for connection with others. I was rooting for her right from the start." -Patrice Sarath, fantasy and romance author

"Some unlikely alliances and Liliana's abilities give us a rollicking adventure and set the stage for more stories to come." -Nancy Jane Moore, author of The Weave

"In Precise Oaths, the reader is introduced to a captivating world where the future can be altered with all its uncertainties and possibilities. The protagonist, Liliana, is a seer spider-kin gifted with the rare ability to glimpse into the future. Her life, marked by a peaceful existence of offering guidance to clients, takes an unexpected turn when detectives knock on her door, seeking answers about a mysterious case involving spider venom and six deceased soldiers. Among these detectives are Pete and his superior, who, like Liliana, belong to a group of paranormal beings with anthropomorphic abilities.
This novel is set in a richly imagined world populated by both endearing and intriguing characters, a testament to Paige E. Ewings's skill in creating a welcoming universe. Liliana is crafted as a relatable character, not an invincible hero, but an empowered woman grappling with everyday challenges. Her journey through social interactions, emotional empathy, and moral dilemmas rooted in her past traumas paints a portrait of a character whose motivations become clear and compelling as the narrative progresses. The book excels in its world-building, which, despite initially seeming daunting due to the intricacies of the kin system, unfolds organically through character interactions. This approach to exposition allows the reader to immerse themselves in the novel's universe without being overwhelmed by dense explanatory text. The blend of thrilling action, including Liliana's strategic maneuvers and close encounters, and informative dialogues maintains a brisk pace and adds depth to the narrative. The novel's immersive storytelling captivates the reader, though at times, distinguishing between Liliana's visions and reality can be subtly intricate, especially during more extended visions.
The unique concept of the story is likely to appeal to fans of supernatural romance, offering a fresh take on the genre. Precise Oaths is recommended for those seeking a book with a novel twist on fae narratives, blending the mystical with the relatable in a compelling and enjoyable manner." - Literary Titan

Paige writes about superheroes and sentient cities, were-spiders and gun-loving fairies, werewolves and fighter pilots. For a living, she gives speeches and writes about big data analysis and data engineering architectures, a subject which also doubles as a sleep aid for many. For fun, she shoots arrows, and throws axes at people and things. Years ago, she lived, briefly, in Kotebue, Alaska, but now lives in the middle of nowhere, Texas, and will show you far too many pictures of her garden if you let her. She once invented a way to grow food on Mars that NASA liked, and has a cute trophy to show for it. Her dogs and horses are unimpressed.

I actually read the second book first and liked it so much I had to read this book too. Great main character, action and suspense. I look forward to more in this series and seeing how Lilly grows. You get to know some of the other characters in the second book and can’t wait to see what is in store for them.

I'm so glad I decided to buy this book, on recommendation of a friend.
Three dimensional characters are surprisingly difficult to write. Essentially, you have to create a back story for why the characters are who they are, and why they do what they do.
The characters are real enough that I feel like I know them.
Like, even though I won't ever see their true faces, I might meet them somewhere.
Very well done.

Liliana is a spider-kin woman who can use her multiple eyes to see into the past and future. She's also on the autistic spectrum, which gave her a very unique voice.

When a local army detective accuses her of murder, Liliana is forced to step out of her quiet home and reclusive lifestyle to prove her innocence & to try to stop her new (and only) friend from being murdered. Liliana's unique sights and spider abilities combined with her different perspective of social interactions made this a very original read.

Lily is a fascinating character, the concept of spider kin is ingenious. The supporting characters are also interesting and there is room for more character development. I did not know which way the story would go. Lily's almost human responses are grand. I definitely look forward tot he next book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightfully Neurodivergent
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2023

In a time not too far in the future, after the Energy Wars, the Others, Fae & Animal-kin are returning to our world.

Liliana is spider-kin, a seer whose 8 eyes allow her to look at the present, the future, the past and into motivations of those around her. This wealth of information is also a sensory overload as she works through all possible outcomes of every action and interaction, on top of that she must dance around all the little social cues that humans, fae and the various animal-kin take for granted.

Precise Oaths is not just an urban fantasy rom com, the author has a keen grasp of awkwardness her character feels as she navigates through the world of relationships and fear of being misunderstood. I’m looking forward to Liliana’s next adventure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Action-packed, character-driven story for fans of any genre
Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2023

Athough I favor the sci-fi side of sci-fi/fantasy, I have read and enjoyed fantasy book series (for example, The Dresden Files and The Iron Druid Chronicles). Therefore, I am always pleased to find fantasy authors who can put a fresh spin (pun intended) on familiar fantasy elements.

Precise Oaths is the well-written and well-paced first entry in what is sure to be an excellent fantasy book series. Even if you are not typically drawn to this genre, you will appreciate the well-developed and intriguing characters, especially the amazing protagonist Liliana, and you will experience an engaging and entertaining story wrapped up in gradually revealed, and never overwhelming, paranormal world-building.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Unique Take on What it Means to be Other
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2023
I had some apprehension about reading this book and waffled back and forth a few times. Spiders are generally loathsome creatures that you don't want (or at least i don't want) in your home. The author took a risk in my opinion making the leading lady, Liliana a spider kin. We are all probably familiar with the typical others in books - vamps, were animals, witches and Fae but a spider is something new. We are also probably all familiar with Spider-man and she is nothing like spider man but no less heroic.

Her abilities, though spider like, were nothing like the guy in the web suit slings webs. She used her enhanced vision of the multiple eyes to help not only her self but to help soldier's families and others to know the future but more importantly to know the safety of their loved ones. When she was being pursued early on and she thought to disappear but couldn't because her clients depended on her, we saw the first glimpse that she was more than a spider and she became less the creepy creature and more a person with special abilities.

I also was a little surprised by the Fae general in the story as most people portray Fae as beautiful and perfect but he was scared on the outside. On the inside he was like her concerned for his people. I wondered briefly which man would be the leading man for her but came to understand this book was about building a relationship with a crew she could trust in future books.

All in all it was a very unique book that ventured into what I consider new territory of Others. I look forward to seeing how the story develops for Liliana and the Fae.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
