Spellbound After Midnight

Ever Dark, Ever Deadly, Book 1

By: Jenna Collett

Narrated by: Ada Sinclair

Magic wasn't supposed to be this difficult . . .

The last spell Tessa Daniels cast turned a woman's hair green. The one before that? Well, she doesn't talk about that one.

Debt-ridden and labeled an outcast, Tessa doesn't think things can get worse until a young woman shows up at her magic shop desperate to attend the prince's ball. But when her latest attempt at magic leads to the woman's murder at the stroke of midnight, she finds herself in the sights of a handsome lead detective who thinks she's the main suspect.

Determined to prove him wrong and show the kingdom she's more than her clumsy spells, Tessa forces her way onto his case. And as their unlikely partnership shifts from a battle of wills into an attraction neither can resist, a killer lurks in the shadows, waiting to claim her as the next victim.

Enemies to lovers, slow-burn romance, and a puzzling mystery. Don't miss this romantic and thrilling twist on Cinderella!

I'd recommend

I loved the voice. It's so unique and engaging. The book itself is very nice. It's a fun twist on Cinderella. I had a hunch that I knew who the killer was but it was so up and down I couldn't be sure tell the very end. I'm not usually kept so on the edge. The misery was wonderfully done and probably my favorite part.

perfect "lighter" break from my usual

I was looking for something a bit "lighter" than my usual romantic suspense, but not as "clean" as most cozy mysteries. This hit the spot for me. I am just disappointed that the second book of the series is not available in audiobook. I was ready to buy it immediately after finishing the first book.

Spellbound til Midnight
