Resumen del Editor

Cauldrons Call, by New York Times best-selling author Kristen Proby, is the highly anticipated second book in the Curse of the Blood Moon series.

Breena has known Giles all her life—and has loved him for nearly as long. Linked by the ties of family and coven, Breena has had a lifetime to discover everything there is to know about him. His intelligence and specialization in crystals and gems are truly things to admire, but it’s how he smiles at her that really makes her cauldron bubble. Too bad he’s completely oblivious.

Giles isn’t as oblivious as Breena thinks he is. A powerful witch, he’s spent most of his life hiding his true feelings from her, but he can’t ignore the fact that she’s hurting and plagued by the same nightmares that haunt him every night. So, getting her to move in with him so he can do just that seems like simple common sense. The hard part will be resisting the way Breena makes him feel.

But evil has invaded their world, and it has the power to kill every witch in Salem. Breena has no time to wallow in what might have been and Giles desire to protect her is stronger than the power contained in his crystals. Together they must lift the curse of the blood moon before time runs out. If they can’t, the people Breena loves the most are all in danger. It will take every skill she’s honed as a witch to protect what’s hers and the man who cast a spell on her heart.

Will they have time to kindle their love for each other, or will the clock run out at the hands of fate?

Magical, dangerous, and romantic.

Brenna is an amazing hearth witch. Her talents are endless. She is one of the sweetest people you could possibly know and he’s always looking out for the good of others. Brenna has had it for Giles for as long as she can remember. When her secret is outed, she finds it hard to believe that he has the same feelings.


Giles knows everything there is to know about minerals, gems and stones. Amazing at his craft. He’s also an amazing resource for the witch community. Giles two has had his emotions all tangled up in Brenna for as long as he can remember. Knowing that she feels the same way, allows him to act upon those feelings, although she thinks his reasons are on true.


With evil still in the air, Salem is not safe. Giles and Brenna begin to cultivate a relationship while working together along with the fellow members of their community to read this evil that has been plugging them. They thought it was gone, but yet it was just waiting for that moment to reveal itself once again. Kristen Proby has created an amazingly magical and romantic story. I love the blending of the different times and seeing magic at its finest. Love blooming in different ways and overcoming the obstacles they are faced with.

Cauldrons Call is a thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining magical romantic read. Or listen as I should properly say.

Excitement!

I like to read stories about witches, ghosts, hauntings around Halloween time. I was thrilled that this trilogy was all ready for me to devour! I couldn't listen fast enough and listened to all 3 books so I could see how it ends. Great story telling that had me holding on to the very end.

Cauldrons Call is all about Breena and Niles. Breena has loved Niles her whole life. Niles had no idea until it was brought to his attention by Breena's cousin. Niles realizes he has always felt something for her. These two, fall in love quickly as evil threatens to harm them. They find out how strong they truly are and that with their friends and family they can take anything on.

Great story loved it!

The narrators did a great job and I couldn't wait to get to book 3!

Loved it!

Another great addition to The Curse of the Blood Moon series! I absolutely loved Giles and Breena! I just love being in this world! This one played out like a movie in my mind! Although this one is a standalone I would recommend reading Hallows End first to completely understand the storyline! I was hooked from the moment I started this one and didn’t want to put it down! I also bought the audio so I could listen when I couldn’t read! I really enjoyed the audio as well! The narrators were great! Overall a great read that I definitely recommend!!

Absolutely magical

A magical love story wrapped up in mystery and suspense will cast a spell over you. Kristen Proby continues to dazzle readers as Breena and Giles race to solve the curse.

Evil is still lurking in this story of witches

Cauldron's Call is the second book in The Curse of the Blood Moon series that follows 3 cousins in Salem. It's full of magic, curses, witches and the evil that is following this family and them trying to defeat it. While I think these books could be read as standalones, they are better read in order.

Book 2 is about Breena and Giles and in the previous book, it was let out that Breena has had feelings for Giles for a long time. Theirs is a story of fated mates of friends to lovers that are getting a chance to let their feelings show and coming together through forced proximity. There is a bit of an age difference and that was the only reason Giles never acted on his attraction to Breena, but it appears that his family and hers knew that they were meant to be. After moving in with Giles to have strength in numbers and keeping Breena safe, these two give into their feelings and finally come together.

I have enjoyed the magical world that Kristen Proby has created from these witches. The evil has tested each of them and has kept them on their toes, using their spells and knowledge to keep that evil at bay. And while Breena, Giles and the others have defeated the evil at each corner, it still is out there. I can't wait to see where the story will go next with Zander and Lorelei's story.

If you like paranormal focusing on witches, friends to lovers, forced proximity with a touch of age gap, this story will be a fun one to add to your TBR. And if you have the chance to listen to the audio, Sebastian York is perfect as Giles. He is the kind but focused witch the you can't help but love and Sebastian performs that well. And Samantha Brentmoor is sweet as Breena. She's such a kind witch that is always questioning herself and Samantha's performance really gets that across.

Looking forward to the final book and how everything comes full circle and the evil is finally defeated.

Five spooky & swoony stars!!

Full of spooky delights and witchy treats Cauldrons Call was just what I was hoping to get in book two of The Curse of the Blood moon series by Kristen Proby.

I could tell in book one of this series Hallows End that Breena was the cousin with her heart fully invested in the man who was to be hers. There was no hesitancy she was just all in.

Giles on the other hand took some convincing but even I think he knew that Breena as always meant to be his. Whether it was by fate or design once he found out her feelings, he knew that he was all in.

This book picks up close to where book one left off and the cousins know that the evil isn't fully eradicated, but they do believe they have some time. Time to form a plan until the next Samhain but the evil that has been lurking around isn't going to wait, he is going to get what he believes he is owed.

Parts of this book were just a bit of filler, but I found I didn't mind it all. It was still very much a five star listen for me and that could have had something to do with Sebastian York and Samantha Brentmoor. They did a fantastic job with the narration of the first book so I had no doubts this narration would be just as good.

We only have a few months until the release of Salems Song the last book in the series and Kirsten Proby has hyped up Xander and Lorelei's past so much I am on pins and needles waiting for it.

Loved Breena and Giles’s story

I utterly enjoyed this audiobook. The narration was spot on for the characters.

This addition to The Curse of the Blood Moon series was just as entranced in this book as Hallows End. Breena and Giles finally get their story after both of them pining over the other and not thinking they had a chance with the other. I loved the evolution of their relationship from being friends with Breena having a crush on Giles being public all the way to the end at the wedding. Add in a little forced proximity since Breena’s house was where everything went down in Hallows End and they had the perfect opening for them to fall in love with each other.

Loved this sweet paranormal romance

Cauldrons Call is KP 2nd book in The Curse of the Blood Moon Series. I don’t read too many PNR but Kristen had this way of just sucking you in. The story is one of love, faith, hope and never giving up or letting fear take over you. Brenna and Giles’ story of one fated mated, friends to lovers, and unrequited love.
Brenna had loved Giles since she was 14, and he had secretly pined over her too. In this book we follow the roller coaster of them trying to ward off and kill the evil spirit that is trying to take over their lives. Together with Lucy, Jonás, Lorelei, and Xander they are trying to brake the spell on Hollows End before time runs out. Loved getting the updates from Lucy and Jonás. And, I can’t wait to read the next Adventure in Salem’s Song where we will get the truth behind Xander and Lorelei’s love story and see if they can all finally defeat the evil spirits. I was lucky enough to read this book but also listen to the audiobook. Sebastian York and Samantha Brentmoor were amazing in this story. Their character transitions, pace, and diction were on point. They kept me engaged. Definitely recommend the book and audiobook.

Cauldrons Call

Yes please more, more. I jumped into this series because of the author. I am sticking to it because the story has me by the throat.

I am invested in Breena and Giles. After being outed by her friends, her feelings for Giles were so obvious to everyone but him. She was feeling all the feels. But also trying to avoid Giles because she was embarrassed. But it opened Giles eyes that she was right in front of his face this whole time.

Then you add the spirit that is trying to harm them and the spell that needs breaking before it's too late and you have one heck of a page turner.

Giles convinces Breena to move in because the spirit isn’t being kind at all and has them all spooked but Breena was taken over once, so she isn’t looking forward to that happening again so she agrees.

The sparks fly and Giles is so patient but also lets her know that he wants her and is willing to do what it takes to prove it.

Fantastic book, I don’t want to give away what happens with the spirit but let's just say book 3 better come out soon because the next couple I neeeeeed to know if they get their HEA!!

The narration is fantastic. I mean SebYo and Samantha are a perfect pairing. I need more of this in my life.

Second In The Series

Kristen Proby is killing it with Cauldrons Call, her newest release in The Curse Of The Blood Moon series, with the story beginning right where Hallows End leaves off. This is Breena and Giles story and things have calmed down a bit for Breena, her two cousins Lucy and Lorelei and the rest of the Coven, but not for long.

A sense of foreboding quickly becomes evident and odd things begin to occur once again as Beltane begins to draw near. As Breena and Giles grow closer working together to help solve the curse that hangs over them all, the entity that had trapped Breena in her cottage at the end of Hallows End has returned to ramp up the evil and take what it feels is its due.

There is a very sweet romance between Breena and Giles, and Kristen Proby always brings the heat, but this story for me was more about the magic and the very palpable spookiness that have come to be a signature that Kristen brings to her paranormal books. I definitely wanted the house lit up for my late-night reading and avoided looking into any mirrors before turning off the lights! Cauldrons Call is another great book in this series, and I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Excellent narration from Sebastion York and Samantha Brentmoore, both are very enjoyable to listen to.
