The Dirty Coven

Publisher's Summary

Hannah Hickok is at a crossroads in her life. She’s single, out of a job, and living in an apartment she absolutely hates in a suburb of Detroit. All that changes when she receives a registered letter and finds out she’s inherited a performance town.

Casper Creek is located in Kentucky, on top of a small mountain, and is fashioned after notorious towns from the old west. Workers dress up, man the saloon, and put on a variety of performances several times a day. A city girl, Hannah is out of her element. She’s determined to give it a shot, though.

Cooper Wyatt is head of security at Casper Creek and the last thing he wants to do is break in a new owner...especially one who has no idea about the paranormal world she’s about to be immersed in. You see, Casper Creek is home to a variety of individuals, including two covens of witches who enjoy doing battle.

Hannah is barely in town when a body drops and a mystery unfolds. The workers at Casper Creek have more on their minds than performances. Unfortunately for them, Hannah is about to find out their big secret. Even worse, she’s about to find out she comes from a long line of witches...and magic is in her genes.

Casper Creek is full of colorful people. They’re all going to have to come together if they want to fight pure evil. Will they manage it in time? It’s almost high noon and the magic fight is about to begin.

Does Not Disappoint!

Lily Harper Hart has created another great character and a town I can't wait to learn more about. I am looking forward to more books in the series and getting to watch how Hannah's powers grow and manifest as well as getting to see more of the paranormal world developed beyond witches and psychics and ghost whisperers.

I love Amanda Lee a.k.a. Lily Harper Hart, but...

...I don't think she wrote this. Some of her recent works have been a little subpar, but this one takes the cake. It's like she finally got a thesaurus but can't figure out how to use it. Time after time, she uses words or phrases that are similar to what she clearly means to say but are inappropriate for the context. Common metaphors are worded strangely making them meaningless. Example: "...turned ON her tail and ran". Huh? That really paints a weird picture. I think she meant that the character turned quickly and ran, but that's not how the expression goes and kind of makes it not make sense.

I think it should be noted that the plot, and many of its particulars, are pretty much identical as Witchin' USA.

I decided not to continue with her Moonstone Bay series because there was a little of these types of mistakes in the first book. I couldn't finish Bat Out of Spell for the same reason. Comparing her these recent stories to the Winchesters, the Mystic Caravan, and the Grimlock books, I'm truly wondering if she indeed did write this one or the other bad ones I've mentioned. It's hard for me to believe this book came from the same place as Only the Lonely.

One of the only good things I have to say about this recording is that at least it wasn't narrated by Angel Clark. Though if it had been, I could have saved my time and money because I wouldn't have even considered purchasing it.

TRITE

the concept wasn't awful but too much time spent on the "setup " for the story and the mystery itself was bland and stale in comparison to the half dozen other stories I've "read" this month. Save your credits for almost anything by Molly Harper, or the DFZ series by Aarons, this one isn't a keeper... sorry!

Lily Hart delivers another great cozy mystery!

Lily Harper Hart delivers another fun, witty, cozy mystery. Hannah, the protagonists is the funny, smart hardworking and compassionate heroin who inherits an old west performance town. With her personal and professional relationships in Michigan in tatters, she packs up for adventure in the state of Kentucky. Being a 21st century city girl she is unaware of the many working of the old west. Throw in the paranormal elements and Hannah is out her of depth in the working of the town.

The usual characters with a paranormal twist are included in the story: the mean girl, handsome hunk, the loveable dog, and a paranormal crisis. This is a great beginning to a new series!

WHAT A GREAT NEW COZY PARANORMAL SERIES

JUST AS ANY GOOD BOOK, THIS ONE LEFT ME HUNGRY FOR THE NEXT IN THE SERIES. HANNAH IS A LOVEABLE HEROINE/PROTAGONIST, WITH JUST THE RIGHT BALANCE OF SWEET AND SPUNKY. COOPER AND BOONE ARE PERFECTLY WRITTEN. I CANNOT WAIT FOR MORE AND TO SEE THEM AND THE OTHER CHARACTERS DEVELOP.

Great new series

I loved this new series. I Can’t wait for the next book in the series.

The start of a great new series!

Hannah Hickok is a spoiled city girl who has inherited an old west town on a mountain in Kentucky. Paranormals abound. Deaths. Romance. A wonderful dog named Jinx. What’s not to love?
