Blurb/Summary:
Who knew a silly game of Twister would turn into
this?
After a spirited game of Twister with her fellow apartment mates, wherein the
absence of the cardboard "spinny thing” forces them to use an old
planchette from a Ouija board as a replacement, Roberta Tisdale’s left hand
can, among other fun stuff, set things on fire—namely, her hair.
And right after meeting her, Nina’s hair, too.
Imagine how that conversation goes...
Just when Robbie was adjusting to her new life after turning her back on her
wealthy family and their evil machinations, this happens, but she throws her
whole body into this crazy magic she's happened upon, learning how to cast
spells without taking out an entire country, and getting acquainted with her
new ride, a talking broom named, HervĂ© (yep. Like the guy on Fantasy Island). All this in the hopes she can become a part of a community who’ll
welcome her—a place where she can belong...
Greer Winthrop, a former male witch who’s lost his powers and placed a
self-imposed isolation from his coven on himself, has an ugly past and an even
uglier secret he’s carried with him for five years. Five painful years. When he
gets wind of the scent of his dead grandmother’s magic, now lodged in Robbie’s
hand, he’s all about teaching her how to use it while he waits to hear from his
coven for advice.
Except, he never hears from his coven and he can’t figure out how his
grandmother’s power is still floating around the universe when she’s supposed
to be dead… Her magic should have died with her. Now, he’s got a fledgling
witch on his hands with some mighty hefty power in her possession—power an
insidious monster of a witch once owned. With his powers gone, Greer can only
take Robbie so far without the help of his fellow witches.
But how can you do that when your coven members have literally disappeared and
you can’t find them—anywhere?
As Robbie and Greer embark on her witch journey, and they find themselves
fighting an undeniable attraction—an insidious evil lurks.
And that evil wants Robbie’s magic—no matter the cost!
Review:
Thoroughly enjoyed the non-stop action and the wonderful characters in The Accidental Witch. We get to meet Roberta (Robbie) Tisdale after she is turned into a witch. I don’t think that’s giving anything away considering the title. Robbie has had a rough go of it lately and a horrid family life. She is struggling but persevering in the face of adversity.
Greer Winthrop has had his own struggles and devastating grief to deal with. However, he drops everything to help Robbie transition to this new phase of her life while also helping to protect her.
In true Accidentals fashion, Robbie and Greer grow close as they help each other through this incident. Of course, the OOPs ladies are there every step of the way with their entire entourage. We also get to meet some new characters that hopefully will feature in the upcoming spinoff series, The Accidental Detectives.
The Accidental Witch is a fantastic addition to the
series and an uplifting story.
