Haunting!

This is a forbidden love story about Lucinda and Isaac who have a secret affair and is set in the 1600s during the Salem witch trials. From the prologue, this book sucks you in. It gives you just enough information to want to know how this story will end. The characters were spot on for the time period and the author definitely made a huge effort to have the dialect for the characters reminiscent of that era. The narrator was able to help bring these characters to life and I enjoyed the audio very much.

I really enjoy the journey of getting to know Lucinda and Isaac and could feel their internal struggles throughout the book. This book definitely had twists and turns that I was absolutely not expecting and the end definitely left me screaming and reaching for the next book.

Overall I thought this was a good read and look forward to continuing the series.

I couldn’t stop listening!

I enjoyed the imagery! It really put me into the story and I felt like I could picture everything!
