After her father, the mayor of Bell, Maine, remarries and gets wrapped up in his new family, young witch Victoria just wants to enjoy a quiet, simple life with her best friend Red... But when her cat, Calypso, reveals magical secrets, Victoria's plunged into a paranormal world she never could have imagined. Her new stepmother, Ann, rubs Victoria the wrong way—but she can't put her finger on it until her father ends up in a coma after a murder attempt and Ann, and her daughter, Alice, raise Victoria's suspicions. An investigation into the case leads Victoria to cross paths with Jenson, a forensic scientist who intrigues her for more reasons than one. When Victoria's mother, missing for years, suddenly reappears and asks Victoria to help her fight the powers of darkness, Victoria is reluctant. But the danger threatens her lifestyle and loved ones, and she can't ignore it any longer. With the help of her mother, Red, and Calypso, Victoria is drawn into a battle that goes beyond the borders of her small town... and into another world. This book was previously released as Murder is Magic.

It’s Okay

I see why not many comment on the story. There is no back story, just telling a current story. The character is head strong and naive, it gives unruly child syndrome. She doesn’t want help from anyone including her mother who is trying to teach her how to successfully use her powers. She is supposed to be powerful but we don’t know her powers to know what she can and can’t handle . It’s just kind of weird the way it just runs on. It could have been a really good story with more history and details, not just assuming the reader knows what is being conveyed.
