Return of the Witch

Witches of Keating Hollow, Book 14

De: Deanna Chase

Narrado por: Joel Leslie

Three years ago, budding rock star Levi Kelley broke up with the love of his life. He knew a long-distance relationship would be hard, but he didn’t know it would break him. As a teen, he’d been thrown out and then exploited for his unusual witch abilities, so the one thing he couldn’t handle was the crushing feeling of abandonment. And that’s exactly how he felt after one too many missed connections, miscommunications, and disappointments. There wasn’t anything to do but go their separate ways. But now, after two years of touring the world, Levi is finally coming home to Keating Hollow...and his one love, Silas Ansell.

Air witch Silas Ansell has always wanted two things: a successful acting career and Levi Kelley. At one time, he’d had both. Then he lost Levi, and his acting career went sideways when his paranormal drama was canceled. Now he’s coming home, determined to get both back. But what will he do if he has to choose between the two again? Is love enough, or will he find a way to get everything he’s ever wanted?

This is a sweet m/m romance.

A Second Chance Love Story

Two familiar characters finally finding their ever after! Not as much action as previous novels but and enticing slow burn revealing. As always, a well written enticing listen! Enjoy!

Love Keating Hollow!

I love all the characters in the Keating Hollow series. Wish I could be part of that world. This story centers around Silas and Levi, who were together when they were younger, but with Silas' film career being his focus, they parted ways. In the past several years since they broke up, Levi has become an international rock star and set to co-star with Silas in a movie being filmed in Keating Hollow. Deanna Chase has created a very interesting town, with characters that grow near and dear to your heart. If you enjoy the pull and tug of working through relationships with things within and out of the characters' control, you will love the way Deanna makes you feel when reading this series. Return of the Witch is a great addition to this amazing series. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

Second Chances

I have always cheered for Levi when he became part of Keating Hollow. Levi & Silas had a “thing” for each other. Then Silas put his work before anything else including Levi. They go their separate ways & move on with their lives.
Levi has become a fantastic musician & is traveling all over the world. Silas has continued on his filming journey.
Then Levi returns to Keating Hollow to star in a movie with, yup, Silas.
Will they end up ruining the movie or settle their past & their future lives.

This is mainly 2 guys as the main characters, so Gabra isn’t narrating the storyline this time. I did have a difficult time getting used to Joel Leslie though. His narration made Levi & Silas sound more like whiny teenagers instead of adults.

I received an ARC of this audible story & this is my honest opinion.

Why the narrator???

I LOVE all of these series books but we didn’t need the narrator switch. This narrator made it difficult to listen to. I can’t even finish the book. It will just be one I have to miss. I’ll return it for my credit back sadly…

Levi and Silas

Yay, Levi and Silas for their story. This is the 14th book in the Witches of Keating Hollow series. Throughout the series we have seen Levi and Silas both grow as individuals, as a couple, then as exs. I am glad we got a book to see if they are able to reconnect, it's hard when you both have thriving public careers.

I love these two but….

I could not get past the narrator, he completely ruined the story for me. I couldn’t tell characters a part, and he sounded like a mix of the movie introduction guy and a fake posh accent. It’s such a shame because I’ve been so excited about this book. Truthfully I almost couldn’t finish it. The story was good but I spent the entire book checking how much time was left as I wanted it to be over.
If you can get past the narration, it is another wonderful love story. I have loved these two since their first introduction and I was not disappointed by their love story.

Great story and writing

I love this entire series. the characters and writing are great, fun and draws you in. but on this book the narrating was aweful. I'm sorry but I barely could stand it. but I wanted to hear the story so bad. the narration is everything and this one felt like he was trying to gag something stuck in his throat. not good. thank goodness the story was worth it!

Love Levi and Silas

I really enjoyed the story, but not the narration. Levi and Silas are a wonderful couple. It’s interesting to see how they work through their issues and how they have grown in their time apart.
I recommend the story and it may be a better read instead of a listen.

Loved the story

Loved the story, I was happy to hear the outcome. I did not love the narrator. I do not think this was a good choice.

BEAUTIFUL MM PNR

We finally get Levi & Silas’s love story that’s been brewing for 13 stories in this series!! Chase has always been inclusive of LGBTQ side characters, but this is the first time a male/male romance has been featured in the Keating Hollow series and it was done so well! In my opinion at least. She stayed true to both of their characters that we’ve caught glimpses of for the past 13 books, and focused on their own faults & hang-ups in their own struggle to rekindle the love they’ve had for each other that has only dimmed since their breakup years ago. I think it helped that she’s created a world who’s so inclusive and supportive of LGBTQ characters and avoiding any homophobic situations or people. It really helped focus on their story and rollercoasters of emotions.

There are scenes with PDA, but faded to black before alluding to spice which I applaud only because I think those scenes should be written by someone with firsthand experience in those scenes. I will say, however, that like other Chase PNR stories, there were definitely times where I got chills when the characters were professing or showing their love for one another. And that’s coming from a straight married woman. It was just so well done! For a change of pace, the last TWO chapters were spent introducing a branch in her stories. Bc One continuing Keating Hollow with Harlow’s story, and also August’s story that will be set in a new town with some ties to KH. I’m definitely intrigued in both!
