Publisher's summary

All Kelly Winters wanted was a quiet, simple life in the small coastal town of Haven, and for a time, she got that, until dead bodies began piling up, and she discovered she was a witch. Now, it’s all magic and mayhem.

Fortunately, Kelly isn't alone, and she's on the fast track to mastering these spells.

So when a YouTube convention set to take place in Haven is ruined when one of the main speakers is mysteriously found murdered, and police have her brother pinned as the primary suspect, she has no other choice than to investigate.

But dark forces are at work, the clocks ticking, and not everyone is telling the truth. Now, Kelly must expose the killer and unravel the secrets before the darkness takes hold.

This time the battle is personal, and she won't back down.

Still have some questions

This book starts a few weeks after book one and you probably need to read that one first so I'm going to assume that you have read it.

I wasn't a fan of how the book ended, I thought there were other equally convincing ways to prove who committed the murder and Kelly created unnecessary problems herself going forward.

That said, the book was fun, it's a good combination of cozy mystery and romance and I'm looking forward to seeing how things develop romantically for Kelly.

I liked getting to know a bit more about some of the towns residents.

The narration was well done again, good character voices and delivery.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

a fun listen.

this book is very entertaining and enjoyable. the narration was great and well done. the writing was good. I had no idea who did it until the very end. I like the possibilities of love interests for her. I can't decide who I would like her to be with. but I do love the idea of her going back to the academy. I would recommend this book to friends. I think my daughter would also love it. so she will listen to it also.

A Social Death

I enjoy this series. It is a little cute, a little fun and the characters are great. I also enjoy the narrator. Kelly Winters is learning more about her magic and helping along the way. Great book! *This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.*

Doing what is right

This book was as equally as good as book 1 with the mystery still shrouding her mother. Doing what's right goes against the rules but some rules are meant to be broken, right? Nothing says family like getting your brother cleared of murder charges. The killer, while not surprising makes you wonder how could you have done this; I mean it's only going to separate you from the one you love. At this point in the story I really want to know more about Kelly's mother. Even more suspicion is pointed towards Ivy, wonder where that will lead... Kelly's brother and friend River may have to rethink the festival since they couldn't sponsor one of their own. Love this narrators work with the characters. I look forward to the new book.

Good, relaxing cozy mystery...

My second meeting with Kelly Winters has been even better than the first one. The second book in the series takes us back to the not so average town of Haven, where magic is an investigatory tool and witches work against an ancient curse...

This time the case Kelly gets involved in is personal; it's her brother who is the primary suspect so she has to find out really quickly who did it. The plot develops fast, there are a few possible and probable suspects besides Jamie, and the solution is logical, though maybe not so unexpected:) There is also some interesting development in the secondary plotline, that is Kelly's involvement in the world of magic; a mysterious man appears and there are some yet unexplained events taking place... I suppose we just have to wait and see what's going to happen next when it comes to Kelly's fight against the dark forces...

There are two particular things that I think make the book slightly better than the first in the series (I gave the first one a 4-star rating:)). The plot is more concise and doesn't waver so much from the murder case; all the additional information or events are strongly connected to the subplot of the curse Kelly is supposed to overcome and nicely fill in the story started in book one. I also like the fact that Kelly, while coming to terms with being a witch and trying to master her witchy skills, remains a rather rational human being, believing more in the power of facts and logic than the mystic mumbo-jumbo (though she uses her witchcraft quite willingly in her investigations:)) and as such cooperates with the police and doesn't shy away from the consequences of her actions...

The interpretation by Ms Naudus is very good; the pace is quite fast but the narration itself is clear and the characters easily distinguishable. There's also quite a bit of good acting, which nicely conveys the characters' emotions.

Generally, it's a very nicely interpreted,well-written, relaxing cozy mystery. I can honestly recommend it to every fan of the genre.

Very enjoyable read

This was a very enjoyable cozy mystery. It had a really good combination of mystery, romance, suspense, magic and humor. The narrator did a great job of bringing the characters to life.

Excellent series with fun and quirky characters

I am really enjoying this series! This is the second book in the series, but it can be read as a stand-alone. Emma Watts did an excellent job bringing the reader up to speed at the very beginning of the book. This story was just as great as the first, complete with all the murder, mystery, magic, mayhem, and of course, the lovable and quirky characters. I loved it and, in fact, finished it in one sitting! And to make it even better, it’s narrated by Natalie Naudus! Counting the first book in the series, this is the 3rd book I’ve listened to that was narrated by Naudus. I am now a huge fan! She does an amazing job narrating and keeping all the characters consistent with unique voices without sounding forced or strange. She brings the book to life. Natalie Naudus has been added to my list of favorite narrators, and I will definitely be on the lookout for more of her work.
Overall, great addition to the series! I look forward to listening to the next in the series. I received a review copy at my request and voluntarily reviewed.

A Social Death

Kelly’s poor brother falls victim to the curse and is accused of murdering another YouTuber. Kelly must clear this up and fast. Along the way Kelly discovers her moms old house and makes arrangements to start the process to buy it or inherit it. The reality company did not realize she had passed away. Kelly makes a rash decision to get her brother out of jail. But the Consequences may be bad for the witches. Only the future will tell. Great job on the narration.
