A Christmas Cozy Mystery

Cendrine West is looking forward to a cozy Christmas Eve dinner when a blizzard blows in, bringing with it a flurry of unexpected guests. But tipsy witches and mischievous magic spell a recipe for disaster, especially when a guest turns up dead.

Cen’s sleuthing exposes a Santa-size sack of trouble, and everyone’s a suspect, even her hunky sheriff boyfriend. Is it a deadly accident by a drunken witch...or something more sinister? Murder is on the menu, and only magic can uncover the truth in this witchy, wacky Yuletide thrill ride!

Westwick Witches cozy mystery Book 4

I enjoy this cozy mystery series so much! I would strongly encourage anyone to start with book one so that you will be familiar with the characters and not miss anything. This family of witches is a hoot!

Narration was great and brought the story to life!

This series is so entertaining and fun with unexpected twists and turns and delivered with lots of laughter! Aunt Pearl is still up to no good and trying to run the sheriff out of town. She invites several people to their family holiday celebration. Cendrine is not pleased but there is nothing she can do. This will not be a private family dinner like she had expected and trouble brews.

Excellent Author and amazing narrator! I’m always looking forward to any book done by this dynamic duo!

Christmas Witch List

This cute murder mystery will put you in the mood for Christmas and snow. I really enjoy the characters that Colleen Cross has created in this series. I am a bit disappointed with Cen and the fact that she keeps promising to do better with her witchcraft and never follows through. Because when she commits she does very well. Its Christmas eve and Cen and the family are preparing for the family Christmas Eve Dinner and games. Only this year Aunt Pearl has invited some mystery guests, and if you know the series you know that means trouble. I was a bit surprised that Aunt Pearl's star student could not bypass the plane and weather and zap herself home. Also the scene of the first mystery guest arriving is a bit awkward to me it seemed to repeat the same questions or thoughts just in different ways. I noticed this at another spot in the story too. Nice job on the narration.

Check Murder Off The List

As usual when the West family women get together mayhem seems to soon follow and this Christmas Eve is no exception with Aunt Pearl up to her usual shenanigans. Cendrine is looking forward to a romantic evening with her boyfriend, sheriff Tyler Gates, however he is delayed by a blizzard and when several unexpected guests begin to arrive her dreams of a perfect evening are quickly shattered. Things quickly go from crazy to chaotic and when one of the guests dies it is obvious there is a murderer in the mix. There is never any shortage of laughter and fun when listening to one of these stories. Petrea Burchard always does such an amazing job with the narration. By now we have come to know each character by voice and have never been disappointed. This book was given to me for free and I provided this unbiased review and I certainly have no qualms recommending it! I can’t wait to see what the Westwick witches will be up to next!

All I Want For Christmas . . .

I've been following this series on audiobook, quite deftly narrated by Petrea Burchard, and have watched Cen become ever so gradually more adept at spells and witchcraft. Like Samantha in "Bewitched," she rather considers it cheating to use magic for things she can do herself (no, wait, that was what Darren thought). However, each story so far could easily stand alone, so if this is your first introduction to Westwick, you will feel right at home. This Christmas pageant introduces you to some South Pacific lore--based on historic events!--as magic is overcome by old-fashioned greed and guile.

Never a dull moment with this crew

Shenanigans, a crazy family, a blizzard, surprise guests, and an unexpected death combine for a comedic mystery. As much as Aunt Pearl would drive me in sane, I enjoy the chaos she brings. The narrator did a good job with providing unique voices for each character and appropriate tone inflections for each scene. I received a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
