Charmed and Dangerous A Witch Romance Novel Appalachian Magic Series Book 1 eBook Debbie Herbert

A young witch with a troubled past, a mysterious young man with secrets of his own, and the forces of magic and immortal armies on the verge of war…

Welcome to the captivating world of Appalachian Magic! Charmed and Dangerous is a great New Adult paranormal romance that blends the hidden world of witchcraft and supernatural beings with a gorgeous southern, creating a page-turner of a story!

Having read (and loved) ‘Changeling,’ I was thrilled to return to the world of southern witches and hidden worlds. Callie Bradford is a tough and resilient heroine who faces more than her fair share of trauma with courage, wit, and admirable determination. Between a strained reunion with the mother and grandmother she believes cast her aside, the revelation that she’s a burgeoning ‘super-witch,’ and the quest to determine the truth about the father she thought was dead, she’s on a collision course with more than earthly danger.

Hidden Immortal James MacLauren proves a worthy hero, trusting and aiding Callie in spite of the power she could use to bind him. Though a mortal witch can only bring him heartache, Callie’s spirit, loyalty, and courage draw him like no other woman. No spoilers, but when James discovers Lucas Bradford’s (Callie’s father) deadliest secret, he puts more than his freedom on the line to protect and aid Callie.

Twists and turns aplenty in this story, as well as an immensely satisfying heroine’s journey, make for a great read!

I was also very pleased to read a female-centered coming of age story featuring Callie and the host of amazing and resilient women around her. Her mother and both grandmothers serve as wonderful mentors, and I adore her relationship with gal pal Skye. There are so many buddy/mentor books out there for boys and young men. It was a TREAT to have a series for girls/young women.

I also adore that Callie isn't a shy, shrinking virgin. She owns and embraces her desires. So refreshing!

Fans of paranormal romance and YA/NA should definitely check out this series!

Charmed and Dangerous A Witch Romance Novel Appalachian Magic Series Book 1 eBook Debbie Herbert Reviews

Callie is a lot of fun. She's a witch on her own, returning home for the first time in years. She's not too happy about it either - she feels abandoned and forgotten by those closest to her, but she's about to find out the real story. The real story is she's in danger and now she is going to need her family and their coven to help protect her.....from what, she isn't sure yet.

Shortly after returning home, she runs into James, who knocks her off her feet. But he's far more than what he appears at first, and he's terrified of Callie's magic. They make a very unlikely pair in their world, and trust is needed if they are ever going to make it last. This trust will be pushed from all directions; close family memebers with an ax to grind, as well as the enemy to try and make them weak.

This was a very exciting book and I really enjoyed learning about the world Debbie Herbert has built. It's familiar in many ways, but with some nice surprised to set its lore apart from the rest. With quite a suspenseful ending (but don't worry, no cliffhanger), I know that I will want to re-visit the Appalachian Magic world to see what else is in store for these great characters.
The Dark Seas series from Harlequin is one of my all-time favorites in the Nocturne line, and the talent of Debbie Herbert to create enthralling paranormal stories makes her Appalachian Magic series equally fascinating. A New Adult romance, the first book has a witch with a complicated background becoming involved with an immortal who is very wary of her kind. Throughout their complicated relationship, difficult choices must be made when futures are at stake. CHARMED AND DANGEROUS is magically enchanting.

When Callie Bradford was twelve, she and a friend decided to use a hidden Ouija board in her home for fun. But right after the event which had a scary ending, the witch was sent away for seven years and had little contact with anyone back in Alabama. Now Callie has been summoned to come home but not told why. During a morning walk, she encounters another hiker, James MacLauren, and is delighted to hear both will be attending the same college next semester. While she enjoys being around the young man, she knows any of her capabilities as a witch must be kept secret.

Callie does not realize James is an immortal with his own distinctive skills that few know about. When he accidently discovers she is a witch, he thinks being around one of her kind could be disastrous if she turns on him. After finally told the reason for being called back to the area is for her protection, Callie has a hard time thinking the danger is real. Yet upon learning her supposedly long dead father is a powerful warlock who practices dark magic, Callie starts to believe the peril may be genuine. When several disturbing incidents seem to be connected to her upcoming birthday with its special significance, the relationship she has with James is truly tested.

With lots of original details, CHARMED AND DANGEROUS is constantly entertaining. I really liked how Debbie Herbert included plenty of unique aspects in the story, such as the Dismals Canyon, an actual place in Alabama. How crystals and other practices used by witches are depicted all through the book is certainly intriguing, and it made scenes seem much more convincing to me. Facts about rituals and spells added even more credibility, making me think the events actually could have happened as portrayed.

There are many likable characters in the story, from the main couple to her good friends, and I enjoyed seeing how these college age individuals reacted to each other and any situations featuring the paranormal. I really loved how the author gave James and Callie normal problems teenagers must face along with many challenging consequences of having supernatural abilities. James is a great hero, as he often listens to his heart instead of what his mind recommends. Though Callie is often puzzled over what is taking place in her life, I liked how she tried to find solutions without bringing any true harm to others, even though she could. Any sexual interaction between Callie and James is understated yet perfectly fit their budding relationship. I am thrilled more characters in the Appalachian Magic series get their own book. CHARMED AND DANGEROUS is cleverly imaginative.
