If you’re looking for a YA gothic horror witchy read then this one would be perfect for you!
It was so well written, I devoured this book so fast – it was almost impossible to put down!
The story follows Nev Blackwell, Alma Blackwell’s descendants a hundred years later.
She was preparing herself to take the Vow but found herself deep in a dark tmystery which might have something to do with her family….
I really enjoy my time reading about Nev’s investigation and her new found friend, Cal that help her uncover the truth about the Blackwell’s family.
The last few chapters are filled with twists after twists that made this story far from simple. I was surprised by each secrets that Nev and Cal uncovered throughout the story.
What a captivating book! A dash of sweet young romance with dark mystery is a perfect combination for a great book.
I’m definitely going to look out for more books by this author in the future!
