Spotlight: Second Chance Magic Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel

Second Chance Magic (Order of Magic #1) by Michelle M. PillowAbout the Book:

Secrets broke her heart… and have now come back from the grave to haunt her.

A new series from NYT & USAT Bestselling Author, Michelle M. Pillow!

Lorna Addams’ life is not turning out like she expected. After a very public embarrassment, she finds it difficult to trust her judgment when it comes to new friendships and dating. She might be willing to give love a second chance when she meets the attractive William Warrick, if only she could come to terms with what her husband did to her and leave it in the past.

How is a humiliated empty nest widow supposed to move on with her life? It’s not like she can develop a sixth sense, séance her ex back, force him to tell her why and give her closure. Or can she?

My Thoughts: Where Magic and Closure Collide!

I was captivated by this paranormal women’s fiction book. Lorna has been kicked in the lady balls by life. While she’s at her husband’s funeral, she gets a rather eye-opening truth bomb dropped on her. She’s left high-tailing it out of town to put roots down anywhere but a spot that knows her previous among the living no-good-son-of-a…. what? I can judge the man if I want.

Back to Lorna. Wanting some closure, she and her new group of friends séance him back. They get a little more than they bargained for. Oh… I almost forgot about William. He’s the love interest and a thousand times better than that no-good-son-of-a…

I absolutely love the Order of Magic series and really hope you binge-read them all! I’m also hoping Michelle does a spin-off of the series.

Spotlight: Sucks To Be Me: A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel

Sucks To Be Me: A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel by Kristen Painter

Next up in my Fab13 spotlight is Kristen Painter and the first novel in her First Fangs Club paranormal women’s fiction series, Sucks to Be Me. First off, I love Kristen, and her humor has left me laughing so hard that my side hurt. This book was no exception. Sucks to Be Me is a bit darker than her Nocturne Falls series and is amazing! Belladonna’s entrance into the world of the supernatural will leave you devouring the book and hurrying to grab the next in the series!

About the Book:

A Paranormal Women’s Fiction for anyone who feels like age is just a number and midlife still has magic!

When 49-year-old Belladonna Barrone’s mobbed up husband does her the favor of dying in a car accident, she thinks she’s finally free of the crime family she unwittingly married into. Then the boss tells her that she has to complete her husband’s last job before that freedom is truly hers.
No big deal, she figures. Until things go south in ways she never imagined. Suddenly she’s thrust into a whole new world that makes the mob look like kindergarten. Vampires and werewolves are real? How is that freaking possible?

Her dreams of a new life disappear faster than wine at book club as more problems arise from her husband’s dark dealings and the unbelievable complications caused by her supernatural entanglements. Only her strength and determination (and some wild new friends) will see her through this next chapter, but the odds are against her.

How much more can her life suck? She’s about to find out…

A new take on the vampire genre: Sucks to Be Me.My Thoughts:

It’s everything we could want in an amazing read – strong characters, a female lead who doesn’t let obstacles get in her way, middle-aged issues, along with vamp ones. Celebrate your milestone years by reading Sucks To Be Me: A Paranormal Women’s Fiction novel – with its page-turning excitement, it will make your midlife feel magical!

Spotlight: Suddenly Psychic A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel

As I’m sure you’ve noticed, I’ve been taking a moment to shine the spotlight on my fellow Fab13 members. They’re such an amazing group of women. Next up is Elizabeth Hunter. My first introduction to Elizabeth was her 2013 novel, The Scribe. Let me be the first to say…wow! Loved it! Now, jumping into her paranormal women’s fiction work, I’ll be kicking things off with Suddenly Psychic (spoiler alert–loved it too).

My Thoughts:

Elizabeth Hunter’s story is well-written, with well-developed characters. The attention to detail and relatable issues in Robin’s personal life were amazing! Another huge plus for me was the female friendships. They added a dimension and reality to the novel.

Mandy M. Roth

Suddenly Psychic: A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel by Elizabeth Hunter

A Paranormal Women’s Fiction with a bit of class and a lot of sass, for anyone who feels like age is just a number!

Every woman goes through changes in their forties. Just not… these changes.

Robin Brannon was a normal wife, mom, and antique-shop owner until a brush with death turned her day-to-day life upside down. Now she and her two best friends are seeing things that belong in a fantasy novel. Ghosts. Visions. Omens of doom. Nothing that belongs in the peaceful mountain town they call home.

Added to that, Robin’s marriage is on the rocks, her grandmother’s health is failing, her mother is driving away the customers at her shop, her teenage daughter refuses to get her driver’s license, and her left knee aches every darn morning.

Robin doesn’t have the time, energy, or knees to unearth the secrets buried at the bottom of Glimmer Lake, but fate doesn’t seem to care. Some secrets are just dying to be exposed.

Suddenly Psychic is stand-alone paranormal women’s fiction and the first book in the Glimmer Lake series by USA Today best seller, Elizabeth Hunter, author of the Elemental Mysteries.

Paranormal Women’s Fiction: Midlife Bounty Hunter by Shannon Mayer

Midlife isn’t the end! It’s the beginning! Paranormal Women’s Fiction Book Review: Midlife Bounty Hunter (The Forty Proof Series #1) by Shannon Mayer

Shannon Mayer is not only a wonderful person, she’s a kick-ass writer! She’s also another member of the PWF Fab13, helping to spotlight paranormal women’s fiction as a genre.

About the Book:

One day I’m married, living in Seattle, and magic isn’t real.

The next, I’m divorced and living in the guest room of my ex’s hotter- than-sin cousin’s place in Savannah . . . and talking to an animated skeleton named Robert.

I have to admit, Robert isn’t my worst date.

At forty-one, I didn’t think I’d be starting over. But I’ll be damned if my ex thinks I’m down and out because he pulled a fast one on me.

When a job comes my way that offers me a chance to use my childhood training in the shadow world, I take it—I need the money more than I care about my sanity.

It’s dangerous.
I have to embrace the magic and dark of my past.
And I need Advil to keep me going.

But those who’d hold me back better sit up and take notice, because a new woman is in town, and she’s not about to be counted out by anyone.

Even if she does groan when she rolls out of bed in the morning.

My Thoughts:

Midlife Bounty Hunter is an action-packed perfect blending of urban fantasy meets paranormal women’s fiction. Shannon Mayer is well-known for her amazing character development, and this book is proof (ha, see what I did there) of why that is. Breena leaps off the page as a 41-year-old, down-on-her luck no thanks to “Himself.” I loved following her journey of self-discovery, and have to admit I cackled more than once while reading this. Can’t wait to dive into the next book in the Forty Proof series!

Level Up Your Love Life with Magical Midlife Madness

Level Up Your Love Life with Magical Midlife Madness

It’s no secret K.F. Breene is a writing friend of mine. She’s also part of the Fab13 Paranormal Women’s Fiction (PWF). Most of you are probably familiar with K.F. Breene’s urban fantasy and paranormal romance books. From The Demon Days, Vampire Nights Series to Deliciously Dark Fairytales, Breene pens tales that captivate readers. I’m taking a second to plug her amazing Paranormal Women’s Fiction series, Leveling Up!

Magical Midlife Madness (Leveling UP #1) by K.F. Breene

A woman starting over. A new house with an unexpected twist. A cape wearing butler acting as the world’s worst life coach.

“Happily Ever After” wasn’t supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of twenty years packs up and heads for greener pastures and my son leaves for college, that’s exactly what my life becomes.

Do-over.

This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at forty I’m ready to carve my own path.

Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills. I’ll be taking care of a centuries old house that called to me when I was a kid. It’s just temporary, I tell myself. It’ll just be for a while.

That is, until I learn what the house really is, something I never could’ve imagined.

Thankfully forty isn’t too old to start an adventure, because that’s exactly what I do. A very dangerous adventure that will change my life forever. I have a chance to start again, and this time, I make the rules.

My Thoughts:

Magical Midlife Madness is the start of the Leveling Up series by K.F. Breene. It’s a slow-burn romance, full of unexpected twists and turns, and I found myself laughing out loud at the antics of the characters. The writing is witty and sharp, and it really captures what it’s like to be a woman starting over in her 40s. Highly recommended! Pick up your copy today!

Do you prefer to read wolf shifters in packs, or about a pack leader finding his mate, how about a bad boy rogue werewolf who falls hard for a human, or a lone wolf who has given up on love only to end up having Fate set him in front of his mate?

She's a paranormal romance author readers trust. Her perfect blending of the human world and the supernatural has brought hundreds of characters to life in the minds of readers all over the world.

She's well-known for the level of research she puts into each and every book she writes as well as her commitment to creating books that readers can escape reality in for hours at a time.

Top 20 Werewolf romance booksRockstar Werewolf Romance Books with Urban Fantasy KickRockstars, dark princes, werewolves, vampires, and fated mates… what is a girl to do?

We're kicking things off with Mandy M. Roth's Tempting Fate series. Originally published Jan 2006, Loup Group (the first book in the series) helped launch a small publishing house and was nominated for Best Paranormal Erotic Romance by Romantic Times Magazine.

Loup Garou (Tempting Fate #1) 

Loup Garou introduces us to Lindsay Willows. After spending years touring with various music artists and choreographing their shows, she's ready for a quieter life. One where she can make a difference without drawing too much attention to herself.

As the daughter of both a vampire and a Fae, the cards were already stacked against her. Finding out she’s the supposed mate of a dark fae prince doesn’t help matters. Especially when there are those who will stop at nothing to prevent her from mating with a prince, she’s never even met.

When Exavier Kedmen, the incredibly sexy frontman for a world-famous band, shows up wanting her to go back to working in a field she left three years ago, she can’t explain the strong feelings that surface for a man she barely knows.

Lindsay finds herself confronting demons from her past, coming to terms with the ones in the present, and finally looking forward to a future with the man she was created for. And she discovers evil doesn’t care who it hurts to obtain its goals, but even the evilest of things fear something, or in the case of Exavier, someone.

Bad Moon Rising (Tempting Fate #2)

The second book in the Tempting Fate series is Lindsay's best friend Gina's book. She was a fan favorite from book one and finds herself drawn to the incredibly handsome werewolf who just so happens to be the local wolf pack leader and a homicide detective.

Gina, a natural-born slayer with a little something special, has been looking for love in all the wrong places. She’s not holding out for Prince Charming, and for some strange reason, she can’t stop having feelings she shouldn’t for a man she considers just a friend. Sure, he’s hot, but he’s an alpha male shifter. Shifters and slayers don’t mix. It’s just the way of it. Plus, he’s been friend-zoned.

Detective Jay Gonzales is so in love with the spit-fire redheaded slayer he can’t see straight. She keeps him at arm’s length, and he can’t blame her. He’s got a history as a ladies' man, and he’s not what her slayer buddies would consider a catch. He doesn’t care.

She means something to him, and this alpha wolf shifter isn’t about to take no for an answer, especially since he’s sure she’s his mate. Breaking the news to his pack and keeping her safe from a rising dark threat are just two more obstacles he has to overcome to make Gina his forever.

Can they overcome the odds that are stacked against them? 

Urban Fantasy Werewolf Romance Books 

First published in 2007, book one of The Guardians series (titled The Guardians) drops us into a world of shifters, vampires, Fae, magic, gods and goddesses, pleasure nymphs, and a supernatural group of guardians, duty-bond to protect mankind.

The Guardians (The Guardians #1)

Butt-kicking Guardian, Madelyn Mason, is the only female in a sea of supernatural males. College student by day, she spends her nights fighting for mankind–the innocents, the ones who have no clue that the things of nightmares walk among the living.

Larger-than-life Hollywood hunk, Brady Devens, has won the hearts of millions of adoring fans. But, the only heart he wants to win is that of his mate, Madelyn. As pack alpha, his fated mate isn't showing an interest in him as anything more than a friend, and he’s beginning to think the Powers That Be goofed.

In this world of magic, mishap, demons, gods, and pleasure nymphs, anything is possible. Can they find a love that transcends time and space, or will the Powers That Be decide that maybe they weren’t destined for one another after all?

Crossing Hudson (The Guardians #2)

Book two in The Guardians series, Crossing Hudson, gives us Hudson's (from book one) story and introduces us to his mate. Beware, she's small but mighty.

Maryann “Ryan” Mackenzie was raised to be the perfect mate to a powerful alpha male, with the sole purpose of helping him resist his dark side. What better way to fight darkness than to make her emulate all that is goodness and light? That was before everything she loved was taken away from her.

Sweet Maryann is dead, and Ryan has emerged from her ashes, a slayer with one final task to complete. The last thing she needs is a hunky new Guardian getting in her way.

Alpha male shifter Hudson Carver is many things, but a glorified babysitter isn’t one of them. When he’s summoned to take on a new charge, he’s less than pleased. She may be a slayer, but there’s a reason he’s been assigned as her Guardian. She’s got a whole heap of evil on her trail, and he isn’t about to let one hair on her head be harmed—especially when he realizes who she is to him. His mate.

Cloudy with a Chance of Witchcraft (Grimm Cove #1) 

When it rains, it pours…and sometimes love finds you even when you can’t find yourself.

Fate has given me a second chance at the happiness I once knew in the odd Southern town of Grimm Cove. But only if I can come to terms with some rather eye-opening revelations. Supernaturals are a real thing. I’m a witch. My high school sweetheart, who happens to be the Chief of Police in Grimm Cove, is my fated mate and a wolf-shifter. Ghosts exist and can be very nosy and meddlesome.

Someone is murdering witches left and right. And last but not least, my ex-husband’s barely legal arm candy is taking fatal attraction to new levels of Hell.

I’m no shrinking violet, and with the help of my best friends, I’m going to live life on my terms–come Hell, high water, or magikal mishaps.

Hexing with a Chance of Tornadoes (Grimm Cove #2) 

A storm is brewing, and so is a budding romance.

Grimm Cove is teeming with supernaturals. And since I’ve known they exist for a hot minute, I’m still in a state of total shock. When I learn that I come from a long line of witches and demon slayers, the stakes (pun intended) get even higher and sharper.

These monsters aren’t make-believe. They’re out for blood.

I’m trying to decide if having the alpha of the local wolf-shifter pack nipping at my heels is an asset in this fight or if he’s one more person I need to watch my back around. I just wish he wasn’t so sexy and didn’t smell so good. He’d be a lot easier to resist.

I have enough going on in my life as it is. I really do not have time for all this fated mate crap everyone keeps telling me about. My head and heart are at war, and now isn’t the time for distractions, especially since it’s painfully clear that something evil wants me dead.

Immortal Ops

Immortal Ops Team Captain Lukian Vlakhusha is having issues with his newest target, Peren Matthews. His higher-ups want her eliminated. He simply wants her. The alpha side of him demands he claim her–that is, if she’ll have him. After all, he’s what she fears most–a wolf shifter. But there is more to Peren than even she’s aware of and the enemy is closer than anyone imagined.

Critical Intelligence

Roi Majors, wolf-shifter and second in command of the I-Ops, is having a hard time believing that Intel can only get half the information needed to bring down an underground ring of vampires with big-spending backers who are hell-bent on creating a race of supernaturals with multiple strands of DNA in them.

When he finds himself paired with the one woman in the world who seems immune to his self-proclaimed charms, he can’t wait to see her to safety and then bid her good riddance. He never counted on falling in love with her. And he sure in the hell never counted on her claiming to be an agent with a branch of the government no human should know about.

Act of Mercy

Paranormal Security and Intelligence Operative Duke Marlow has a new mission: find, interrogate and possibly eliminate the target—Mercy Deluca. He knows looks can be deceiving, but it’s hard to believe the beautifully quirky woman running around in a superhero t-shirt is a viable threat. The sexy little biomedical engineer quickly proves she is more than he bargained for and Intel has it all wrong—she’s not the enemy. Far from it. Intel also forgot to mention one vital piece of information—she’s Duke’s mate. This immortal alpha werewolf doesn’t take kindly to her being in danger.

When Mercy accepted a position within The Corporation she thought it was to help cure disease and to make a difference for mankind. She had no idea what her new career path truly entailed—monsters masquerading under the guise of scientific research. Unable to stomach the atrocities she’s uncovered, she reaches out through what she hopes is the proper channels, asking for help. Mercy gets more than she bargains for when a team of paranormal hotties shows up on her doorstep ready to take down The Corporation. One, in particular, seems to be able to get under skin, both aggravating her and exciting her in ways she can’t explain.

Act of Surrender

Dr. James Hagen thought he’d bid Paranormal Security and Intelligence Agency good riddance nearly ten years back. He’d been an operative with them for so long that carving out a new path in life had taken time, but he’d achieved it. He’d made it his mission in life to help the wayward find a path again, to help those who couldn’t help themselves. All that changed when he fell into enemy hands.

Now, unable to fully heal and plagued by nightmares and choppy visions of what is to come, James isn’t sure if he can keep going. That is, until he meets PSI’s newest person of interest—a quirky, sexy cyberpunk who totally turns his world upside down.

Laney Steele knows she’s onto something. It doesn’t matter that most have written her off as a conspiracy theorist and a hacktivist. She knows the government is hiding the existence of super soldiers who can shapeshift into animals. She’s so sure that she puts herself on the line to find out more, only what she uncovers isn’t exactly what she was hoping for, and it has a heck of a lot more to do with her than she ever thought possible.

When her newfound online gamer buddy turns out to be a super soldier, she throws caution to the wind just for a chance to be with him. Neither one of them realize the enemy has been lurking, waiting for the perfect moment to strike—again.

Act of Brotherhood

Captain Garth Ingersson is in charge of Paranormal Security and Intelligence Agency Special Ops Team Eight. It’s a position he didn’t originally want, but one he has grown to accept. The men who look to him to lead are like brothers to him. Especially since he and his twin brother had a falling out years ago.

Much has changed for this ancient Viking over the centuries, but one thing remains the same–never thinking he has a true mate. This six-and-half-foot-tall Scandinavian is about to have his world turned upside down.

Act of Freedom

Paranormal Security and Intelligence operative and wolf-shifter Dougal “Striker” McCracken is known for his wild ways, and devil-may-care attitude. He’s worked long and hard to build the persona. It disarms others and protects his emotions. The ones he keeps buried within. But try as he might, one woman sees through his antics. She’s not afraid to call him on his bull or set him in his place when the need arises (which it often does). He’s not sure how to act around the lass.

On the one hand, she makes his body burn with a desire, the likes of which he’s never experienced before. On the other, she’s irritable, stubborn, not a huge fan of his, and most of all, vulnerable.

He might have already missed his window to claim the feisty woman. Even if he hasn’t, it would be wrong to give in to the pull he has to her when all she needs is time to heal and process everything she’d gone through. But it’s impossible for him to stay away. Simply being in her orbit soothes his inner wolf.

Striker knows deep down she’s his mate and that patience has never been one of his virtues. When the enemy makes a move against her, this Scotsman lets his wolf and his emotions free.

Broken Communication

Genetically altered into a super-soldier who can shift into a wolf, Casey Black should have been the perfect asset—but that wasn’t to be. The scientists who conducted DNA splicing experiments on him put a little too much wolf in his cocktail. Considered a danger to society and a risk to the survival of the secret project, the government tried to eliminate him.

The former Immortal Operative has spent the majority of his life on the run and off the grid from the very government who’d helped him be ‘all he could be’. When the sassy, headstrong woman who makes his body burn with need vanishes, he realizes it’s not his head, but rather his heart that is broken. And he’ll do whatever is called for to mend it.

Wolf’s Surrender

Total surrender doesn’t come easy to a natural-born alpha. Wolf-shifter Special Operative Brad Durant has been held against his will by the enemy for nearly a year. He’s given up hope and is fast giving up his will to survive, that is until a hot-tempered, redhead succubus is placed in the cell next to his. She calls to his wolf on a primitive level, and he won’t let anyone or anything harm her. Giving his body to the little minx is easy, but guarding his heart is much harder.

Healing the Wolf

Paranormal Security and Intelligence Operative and Shadow Agent Gram Campbell is not having a great year. So far this alpha-male wolf-shifter has had his heart and his body broken. Now his friends have staged their version of an intervention, sending him off to spend time in a luxury retreat and spa that caters to the supernatural.

But this tranquil oasis is more than it appears to be. In it lurks a dark secret. One that threatens to destroy Gram and his destined mate. Is he beyond repair, or will his fated mate bring much-needed healing to the man and the wolf within? And can they survive a madman and his vision for the future?

After all, nothing quite refuels the magik like pleasure.

That was the plan, anyways.

Too bad life had something else in store for this magikal biker bad boy. When a stubborn redhead is set in his path, it’s all he can to do to keep from instantly claiming her—his mate. Evil has its sights set on his woman, and he’s not about to let her go without one hell of a fight.

Once Hunted, Twice Shy 

Wolf shifter Hugh Lupine simply wants to make it through the month and win the bet he has with his best friend. He’s not looking to date anyone or to solve a murder, but when a breathtaking beauty runs him over (literally) he’s left no choice but to take notice of the quirky, sassy newcomer.

She’d be perfect if it wasn’t for the fact she’s the granddaughter of the local supernatural hunter. Even if he can set aside his feelings about her family, Penelope is his complete opposite in all ways.

Penelope Messing wanted to get away from the harsh reminder that her boyfriend of two years dumped her. Several pints of ice cream and one plane ticket to Maine later, she’s ready to forget her troubles. At least for a bit.

When she arrives in the sleepy little fishing town of Everlasting, for a surprise visit with her grandfather, she soon learns that outrunning one problem can lead to a whole mess of others. She finds herself the prime suspect in a double homicide. She doesn’t even kill spiders, let alone people, but local law enforcement has their eyes on her.

The secrets of Everlasting come to light, and Penelope has to not only accept that things that go bump in the night are real, but apparently, she’s destined for a man who sprouts fur and has a bizarre obsession with fish sticks. Can they clear Penelope’s name and set aside their differences to find true love?

Blaze of Glory (Prospect Springs Shifters #1) 

Sheriff Jonathan MacSweeny is in charge of keeping the peace in Prospect Springs. Frontier living isn’t what it used to be. It’s hard to survive in the New Old West, and it’s even harder when your area doesn’t exactly embrace supernaturals–and you howl at the moon. That being said, he’s good at his job and has a reputation with the ladies.

When he learns his childhood sweetheart is to be married off to the town sleazebag, he goes in guns blazing to see to it she’s his. Problem is, Molly isn’t the same girl he remembers from ten years prior. Now she’s a gun-toting, foul-mouthed, vixen with a badge of her own.

Special Marshal Molly Cogan never planned to set foot back in Prospect Springs. When her friend gets the harebrained idea to steal her identity in an attempt to protect her from the bounty the outlaws have on her head, Molly finds herself standing right smack dab in the middle of chaos–or home in her case. It isn’t long before Jonathan is there, flashing that famous MacSweeny boy smile and tempting her in ways she wasn’t prepared for.

This heart-hardened Marshal has her work cut out for her if she plans to face her past fears and her past sweetheart.

Parker's Honor (Prospect Springs Shifters #2) 

Sometimes honor comes with a price. Sometimes it comes with love…

Doctor Parker MacSweeny treats the folks of Prospect Springs. He’s well respected, has a reputation as being a fine doctor, and tends to anyone who crosses his threshold—even if they aren’t in good standing with the law. He’s lived an adventurous life, bedding lots of ladies, never thinking of settling down with just one. He’s been content with his practice and going several towns over to take advantage of the brothels there. He doesn’t like mixing business and pleasure.

When a woman comes to town masquerading as someone from Parker’s past, everything changes. She’s not who she first claims to be—hell, she’s not even who she says she is next. The beautiful, strong, amazingly talented woman gets his thoughts all jumbled and his groin hard. She’s more than she appears to be and he damn well plans on uncovering all her secrets and then getting her to accept his claim. One proves easier than the other.

Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman: Paranormal Women’s Fiction

Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman: Paranormal Women’s Fiction

A captivating and enchanting tale of magic, love, sisterhood, and family.

Mandy M. Roth

The Birth of Paranormal Women’s Fiction

Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman, was first published in 1995, forever paving the way for the paranormal women’s fiction genre. It is about two sisters, Gillian and Sally Owens, who have been ostracized by the community in which they live for practicing witchcraft. The story details their lives as adults and their relationships with those around them. The women are relatable in a way that lets you become invested in their lives and the outcome.

For me, the small town the book is set in becomes a character all unto itself. Hoffman does a remarkable job painting a mental picture with words that you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to New England.

I can’t recommend this book enough. The story-telling in Practical Magic is compelling, the characters are well-developed, and the writing is just beautiful. It’s a must-read for anyone who enjoys paranormal women’s fiction. Gillian and Sally will forever live in your hearts and minds.

The book has been adapted into a film of the same name in 1998, starring Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman. This is a rare case where I think a movie is as good, if not slightly better than the book. That being said, the other books Practical Magic series are amazing and better than the movie.
