Publisher's summary

Dylan Apel is having one heck of a summer. She knows her hand-made clothing is special, but magical? Discovering that she's a witch is bad enough, but when Dylan realizes there are folks who'll kill to possess her witchy powers - that's enough to make a girl want to hide out in the back of her boutique. The only problem is, Queen Witch is in town, itchin' to make sure Dylan learns to cast spells, and this witch won't take no for an answer. Dylan must learn fast - someone just killed her best client with a poisoned gown meant for Dylan. Was it the tall, mysterious hottie in black, who's suddenly everywhere she goes? After all, the first thing Roman Bane says is he doesn't like witches. Is he here to save her, or kill her? Dylan is barely getting a handle on her new powers when she finds herself surrounded by witches bossing her this way and that, local police nosing about, and wary clients - death by clothing is not good for business. And the solstice is coming...a time when witch powers are at their peak. Can Dylan survive the chaos long enough to figure out her new life?

Unicorn Greens

$5 Members sale book to introduce you to the series. I love narrator Angela Dawe and have over 140 of her reads. Do not Miss Nora Roberts the McGregor series, Narrated by Ms Dawe. It is light hearted and just makes your heart smile. DO NOT miss HOVER by Anne A. Wilson, a top 5 favorite.
Listen to the sample of this book to be sure you can handle total southern dialogue throughout the entire book. author is definitely showing all that is southern, so if you don’t like biscuits and gravy, grits and Good Y’ll bless your heart Southern charm, then this book is not for you. It is a cozy mystery read and Ms Dawe‘s portrayal of our hero Roman is Yummy as with all her male character heroes she portrays. I personally loved our main heroine and sister Sara, l did not care for ditzy younger sister and the grandma’s dialogue. It got tedious for me. This book does not end in a cliffhanger but does give you a preview of the next book.
Were my comments of help?

Quirky, Funny, Predictable Story

This is the first book by this author I've sampled. I considered that this book could be enjoyable if you like teenage romance. This is not to say the characters are teenagers but they sure behave like they are, except for grandma and Milly. It seems like this author has a huge imagination, she just has a problem figuring out how to execute a plot that sounds like something adults would do.

I don't intend to shoot this story down. In some ways it's fun, in some ways it's cringe worthy and I stopped playing it at several points because I found the main character acting like a school girl when given a clear prompt of interest by the 'bodyguard.' No effort is given to ask him how he feels about her. Everything is etched in stone when words leave his lips that don't shine well on what turns out is her heritage that she was clueless about just half a day before.

Over all I think this has great potential as a series goes if women who own their own businesses can behave like rational beings in irrational situations. Dylan finds out there are a lot of rules being a witch and she seems to want to try to follow then, but circumstances bring her to break many. Some that could have her boiled in oil as a punishment even though there are ways to fix such transgressions.

It will be a while before I get back to this series. I likely will try one more in hopes the characters grow up and try not to be so vapid.

If you like contemporary fantasy and enjoy a story written to make you laugh. You may want to check it out.

Angela Dawe does a fine job portraying characters. Other than a hitch in the pronunciation of a few common words, I'd say is near flawless in how she executes her task of narrating this story.

Scared Witchless

This is book #1 of this, new to me, series written by Amy Boyles with accompanying audiobook narrated by Angela Boyles. I always enjoy narrations by Angela Dawe because she is so talented in her range of character voices which enhance their written character personalities.
This story sets the stage for the new series and helps you become acquainted with the main characters who will be present in the subsequent stories. I love the southern dialect and speech, with laugh out loud moments that make you smile. Easy to recommend to teens and up, anyone who enjoys a light hearted, paranormal mystery series. 😍
