The only catch is that she’ll have to rely on Haydn to help her. The ancient curse that affects both of their families means it would be a bad idea to be close to him, yet she can’t rest until she has the facts. Diva’s friend, Tyrone Ferrell, needs her help to find a missing person. She’ll have to find the time to assist the sheriff from Lakeview to catch a very disturbed man even with her increasingly busy work schedule.

The Pentland Coven are holding a ball to find one of their young warlocks a wife. They’ve invited the most prestigious families with eligible young witches, including the Delaney Coven. Rumor has it that Liam has apparently already chosen his bride-to-be. Diva is quietly terrified that she’s the one he’s chosen when she hears the details of how he met the witch.

When Diva visits England to solve Chance Alderdale’s case, she has another agenda in mind. She intends to end the ancient curse that has been plaguing the Creighton and Delaney covens for centuries. At least she won’t be alone during this mission. Her grandmother, Aunt Janet and Jess will be with her. It isn’t going to be easy and dreaded voodoo magic will be involved, but they’re determined to break the spell and finally set her free from Haydn Creighton. Everyone Loves A Good Comeuppance: The Delaney Coven has been given the task of taking down Minerva Kensington and her cronies.

It seems Khloe was involved with a dangerous coven who have friends in high places. Their powerful connections might have protected them in the past, but they won’t save them from facing justice forever. With the curse still hanging over them, Diva and Haydn must find the last of Yvonne Creighton’s remains and destroy them. Even if they manage to accomplish this, they’ll still be bound together. Now that their power has been merged, they’ll never be free from each other completely. The worst part is that Haydn has been involved in Diva’s life for so long that she isn’t even sure if she wants to be free from the man who is supposed to be her enemy. cozy paranormal mysteries, cozy mystery, witches wizards warlocks, supernatural occult paranormal, female sleuth, spells magic, ghosts spirits phantoms poltergeist
