Book 1 of the Telepathic Clans Saga.

Someone is stalking her. Then there’s the tall, dangerous woman who shadows her and hints a Goddess has linked them. And what is she going to do with a handsome, charismatic, womanizing man she knows she should avoid?

Brenna’s life isn’t the same after she discovers her unusual and mysterious
heritage. In addition to being a telepath, Brenna learns she has the Succubus Gift.

Some days a girl just wants to pull the covers over her head and stay in bed --
with a willing young man of course.

The history of the Clans, called the Sidhe by the Irish, stretches back to antiquity. The Goddess blesses Her people with 25 Telepathic Gifts. In addition to Telepathy, the Gifts include command over Air and Fire, Telekinesis and Teleportation. In over 2,500 years, She has never bestowed more than 15 Gifts on a single person.

The series is now complete.

The Succubus GiftBook 1 of The Telepathic Clans Saga
Brenna Morgan always thought she was an orphan. Her parents had died in a plane crash when she was a child, and after shuffling through the foster care system, determined to become successful on her own. She knows she is different, but has no idea exactly how different she really is until she saves a friendly young man, who ends up being a cousin, from some seriously bad individuals. Brenna soon realizes that, in addition to being a very strong telepath, she is also a succubus, and all that would entail. She also finds that she is the long lost granddaughter of a powerful, ridiculously rich telepath family. If that's not enough to suddenly deal with, someone is out to kill succubae and are coming after Brenna. Add in a smoking hot security director Collin, and a sassy, brave Protector and friend Rebecca, and the story blows up into a scorching, nail biting, heart-pounding adventure.
The novel itself is expertly written and an utter joy to read. The characters are all delightful. There were times while I was reading this that I laughed out loud, and other times when I held my breath in anticipation of what might occur. I was very thrilled to find out there will be additional books in this series. I will certainly be reading those as well.
Night Owl Reviews, Top pick 4.5/5 stars

From the Author

In the Telepathic Clans, one of the Gifts, along with Teleportation, Empathy, Charisma and Pyrokinesis, is the Succubus Gift, a genetically-conferred ability to attract and seduce men. The succubi drain a man's life energy, but not enough to cause permanent harm, and with no damage to their souls. On the contrary, that energy is conveyed to the Goddess as an offering, and in return they receive her blessing.

Sexual wantonness in the service of a benevolent Goddess, and an action-filled journey about a young woman's self-discovery. Her sexuality is only one of the things she finds.

This book is a mind curling read. It pulls you in from the beginning and keeps you intrigued till the end. Can't wait to read the next book in the series. All the characters are well developed with their individual quirks. A well rounded book from start to finish. Bravo to Kingsolver for another outstanding book.

I can't get enough of Kingsolver's gift for world-building! All the books I have read so far (Chameleon series) have it all... Great characters, suspense, humor, all the requisites for a great book, but I continue to be blown away by the completely thorough, and incredibly unique worlds these novels are built around. Absolutely amazing. I give this book, and the Chameleon Series my highest recommendation.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good start to a new series

I did not have any real expectations of this book and I was surprised as it was a pleasant read. Brenna has telepathic abilities and was brought up in the foster care system as her real parents were killed in a plane crash when she was little. She knew she had a gift but did not know how to control it until she met someone who introduced her to the Clan. This group of people are her family and her grandfather Seamus runs the family business employing gifted people like herself and manages an international company and teaching those people like herself to control and master their gifts. Brenna is unique as most people have an assortment of powers but she has all 25 of them and also is a succubus. So as well as meeting new family members when she thought she was alone, falling for Collin who is also a Telepath and a sexy bad boy who likes the ladies, she also meets Rebecca who becomes like a sister to her. Someone is now hunting Succubi and killing them and her friends are in the firing line so Brenna offers up herself as bait to trap the people responsible. Lots of action and interesting powers are explored and Brenna was initially a shy nervous insecure girl who matures into a sexy confident woman who is virtually unstoppable. I will be interested to read the next book.

5.0 out of 5 stars More interesting and a lot better written than I expected

I almost passed up this one since I didn't really like the other books I've read with succubus in them. I'm glad that I didn't pass up this one. It's not just a story about a succubus. It's also about telepaths and other abilities linked with telepathy. It's more of a science fiction story than a fantasy and is a blend of both​.
This is a story of a young woman that is a telepath that lost her parents when she was a kid and after years of being alone with no family she stumbles across some other telepaths that lead her back to the family and clan that she's from. Then finds out that she isn't just a telepath but also a succubus, along with many other things that normals are never aware of that makes up a lot of the world all around them.
I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Paranormal Read
Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2012

This book was a great surprise for me. I wasn't sure about it, given the "succubus" content - I wasn't looking for a dark sexual book. Luckily, this author's take on the succubus legend is very fresh and original, and for me - much more approachable. The entire concept of the "telepathic clans" tapped into my love of the paranormal and my attraction to history.

The Succubus Gift offers readers a fun look at a group of people, hidden in plain sight, who have "gifts" that can be used in a variety of ways. The story covers a young woman who didn't know that she had any gifts - who only knew that she was different than other people in some way. It follows her through her realization of these gifts and her entrance into a family that she didn't realize she had.

The author has done a great job building a parallel world, complete with historical references and a vernacular that is easy and fun to learn. The writing is clear and unobtrusive, very clean. The plot is compelling. For me, this was a page-turner. I pounded through it in the course of about a week.

Rape trigger warning

OK so the story includes some alternate history and background for the Gifts and Talents which is kind of confusing with how many there are but the book has a list of them to use as reference.

Brenna happens upon a stranger. He's being followed by men that sets of her spidey senses. Just kidding but she can tell they mean harm. So being the Mary Jane she's written as she helps the good looking stranger named Jared. The only thing she asks for helping him is to ask WTF are you and what am I? This random encounter is fortuitous because she finds something she'd long since given up hope of finding spending most of her life growing up in foster care system, her family. She resents her family at first thinking they want to control her life. A near kidnapping changes her mind. We find our heroine, Brenna is gifted with all of the known Telepathic Gifts. She gives in to her grandfather and goes back home to get training because she so gifted she could accidentally hurt people or destroy things.
