Melantha Caldwell, Spell-Turner #2
Hunting A Demon
When Melantha Caldwell suspects her friend and fellow spell-turner, Savion Lebrun, is following in his father's footsteps and becoming a black magic sorcerer, she decides to find out exactly what he's doing when he's not attending high school or magic lessons. What she discovers surprises her: he's spending time with another girl-- a ballet dancer named Hope, who has suddenly developed sleep walking and seizures.
Meanwhile, there's a strange sickness affecting spell-turners everywhere. First Gran is infected, then Savion, leaving Mel no choice but to trust the new spell-turner in town to help her figure out what's wrong with Hope. He calls himself Phoenix and he's much more than he seems, but he's willing to help Mel and teach her spell-turning while her tutor is honeymooning.
After Mel learns the truth about Phoenix and the real reason he's in town, she's not sure she can trust him. Then Mel realizes Hope has been possessed by a demon, she and Phoenix are the girl's only hope of getting it evicted, and if they don't work together, the demon will be free to carry out its own plan for the destruction of humankind— starting with the girl named Hope.

I voluntarily reviewed this book and I have not been compensated in any way.
Melantha Caldwell is a spell-turner and she is worried her friend Savion Lebrun (who is also one) is getting into black magic. However he is actually spending time with another girl called Hope who is also experiencing seizures and sleep walking. Then spell-turners seems to be getting sick. Mel has to trust the new guy in town Phoenix to work out what is going on but that is dented when she finds out what he really is. They need to work together to save Hope and stop the demons from becoming free.
This was a lovely story which was well told with lots of plot twists and turns as the story unfolded. I liked the dilemmas Mel went through deciding it she could trust her old friend, the new guy or neither. I could feel her frustration at times when she had no idea what was happening and no one would tell her what was going on.
