Once upon a time there was a witch - House of Falling Embers by Krystal Jane Ruin

"While everything starts out normal, this story takes a very dark, fantastical twist. Secrets are buried deep and nothing is quite as it seems. The twists are unexpected and make it impossible to guess what's really going on in almost all aspects until the end hits. The last scene does rush by a little fast, but it packs the tension and excitement needed while wrapping up all stray ends, and even adds nibbles of more surprises along the way. "- Tonja. Goodreads

Fate is a real witch... Savage Beauty by Casey L. Bond


"SAVAGE BEAUTY is enchantingly written and the dark element is so alluring that I wanted to devour it in one sitting. Luna gave me a Maleficent feel which I absolutely love since she's one of my favorite characters. SAVAGE BEAUTY as it all: betrayal, love, magic, fae, princesses, princes, and curses. This is the first book I've read from Casey L. Bond and it certainly won't be the last." - Bethany, Goodreads
