Promise of the Witch

Witches of Keating Hollow, Book 13

By: Deanna Chase

Narrated by: Gabra Zackman

After ditching her cheating boyfriend, Zya Rossi left Salem and all her meddling ancestors for a fresh start in Keating Hollow. While she managed to lose the boyfriend, unfortunately her ancestors followed her. While her dead aunts are trying to set her up with every eligible bachelor, Zya is just trying to make friends. She’s not interested in dating anyone. But when her best friend shows up on her doorstep with his three-year-old daughter in tow, suddenly she finds herself battling old feelings and trying not to fall in love with the one man she can’t afford to lose.

Brody Saxon spent the last five years in France, using his magic to cultivate award winning grapes for an up and coming winery. Having never been the commitment type, after spending his days in the vineyards, he’d been quite content to spend his nights playing the field. But his carefree lifestyle comes crashing down when he suddenly finds himself the sole guardian of daughter he hadn’t even known he’d had. Now he’s in Keating Hollow, on Zya’s doorstep, praying his best friend can help him make sense of his new life. And maybe finally face the fact that he’s been in love with her for years. The problem? They’re both runners. Finding a way to trust each other is proving to be more of a challenge than getting his three-year-old to sleep in her own bed.

Fabulous!

Promise of the Witch is book 13 of the Witches of Keating Hollow and can be read alone, but reading as a series gives the book a little extra as you come across characters from previous books. Brody comes to his best friend Zya for help when he finds himself sole guardian of the daughter he didn't know he had. I love how well Zya and Brody communicate and work together to make a family for Winnie and themselves. Deanna's books are always so realistic and this one is no exception. You'll laugh, cry, be filled with hope, fury, and love right along with Zya and Brody. Gabra Zackman was awesome with her narrative ❤️ You will love this book just as much as I do!

Zyra and Brody twisted road to true love

Zya and Brody Story.

As Always Gabra voice is spot on for me..

Loved this so much

I absolutely love this one. I LOVED READING Zya and Brody's story. I love the story and the way the characters and story grew. Love reading Deanna Chase's writing and the narrator did an excellent job of reading the story and it unfolded.

History, Rewritten

Zara loved Brody since they were kids. She never really let herself fall completely with anyone else. So when her fiancé cheated on her, she had no regrets cancelling the wedding and fleeing to Keating Hollow to start over.

Brody didn’t know what to do with a three year old. His daughter. He was still getting used to those words. He knew to whom he could turn though and headed to Keating Hollow seeking out his best friend for help.

I enjoyed learning Zara and Brody’s story. Filled with the typical ups and downs and doubt about how each truly feels about one another. The complications along the way truly show how much they love one another.

Best friends

Zya & Brody have been best friends forever. Each knew they had feelings for the other, but wouldn’t admit it to each other as the didn’t want to give up that best friend by dating.
Zya sees her long departed ancestors as ghosts & they want to see her get married.
Brody has just discovered that he is a father of a 5 yr old daughter. So where do you go when you don’t know what to do? You go to your best friend.
Brody shows up on Zya’s doorstep looking for help. Brody’s mother thinks he should come home to Salem. Things start heating up not only with Zya & Brody, but also with Brody & his mother.
Who will win the battle that they each have to fight??
Deanna Chase & Gabra Zachman have another hit with The Promise of The Witch.
You won’t want to miss this story!

Zya and Brody

Promise of the Witch is the 13th book in the Witches of Keating Hollow. All the stories are great and this is no exception. The characters Zya and Brody are not long standing characters in the series, but each has found their way to the quaint town. Now will they settle down or keep running? Can't wait for the next in the series.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of the Promise of the Witch provided by the author.

Loved this!!

This book was one that grabs you from the very start! It has everything we have come to love from Keating Hollow.. romance, love and intrigue. I really love this series and each book is amazing!! This latest is no exception! Highly recommend!

Promise delivered

Promise of the Witch was a sweet story about friends that found each other after years. Zya and Brody were perfectly sweet for each other. And Winny was wonderful. I loved seeing the relatives that were doing meddling from the spirit world and how that went. The story went along harmoniously until everything crashed together at the end. I loved listening to every bit of the story. Gabra Zachman performed spot on with keeping my engaged in the story. I loved her voice for Winny. The promise was definitely delivered.

Another must read

This was another great addition to the Keating Hollow series, which is my favorite series that Deanna Chase writes. I really enjoyed Zya and Brody’s story. Watching them go from friends to lovers while dealing with ghosts and crazy mothers was very entertaining. I highly recommend.

So, so good!

Keating Hollow is such a magical town. I wish it were a real place because I want to live there. And not just because of the magic, the people that live there are truly amazing. The best friends you can imagine. Brody and Zya have been best friends since childhood. But Zya is surprised when Brody shows up on her doorstep with his 3 yr old daughter in tow. And then Brody's parents start a custody battle for the little girl in an attempt to control him. Deanna Chase is masterful in creating complex characters and developing meaningful relationships. A truly enjoyable tale. Always looking forward to more happenings in Keating Hollow.
