I received this free eARC novel from Red Coat Publishing in exchange for my honest review.

Karin and her sisters Jayce and Lenore have lived int he town of Doyle their whole life. When their mother died in childbirth with the three of them, their aunt Ellen took them in and raised them, while also teaching them about the magic in their family.

Bad news is about to hit the town of Doyle for the Bonheim sisters. Their aunt's cancer came back and it is in her bones, spreading throughout their whole body. And to make matters worse, Karin and Jayce found a dead body in Jayce's coffee shop. Now the police are suspecting Jayce, even though the culprit is out free somewhere.

Jayce gets a lawyer from out of town - Nick - to help her get free and clear from the charges. Karein doesn't expect to be as attracted to him as she finds herself to be, though. Now, Karin has to figure out who is framing her sister, how to save her aunt from this disease that is killing her, and how to end the family curse that will kill her and her sisters if they have children.

Things in Doyle just got a lot harder for the Bonheim triplets...

I haven't read a witchcraft novel for a long time, and I realized how much I missed it! I really enjoyed the story of these three sisters and boy do they have a lot of drama to go through in this book.

And it's nice that there is normal family troubles along with the supernatural issues that are happening. Plus Karin is also falling in love, so that is a normal, everyday thing that happens and keeps the book separated between different types of issues so it's not as smothering for one piece over the other.

I was also pleasantly surprised that I didn't figure out the real culprit! I can usually figure it out way before it is revealed and then I'm like, oh, that was obvious, but this one stumped me until the last minute! But I also didn't really have a good suspect in mind because it was a very tricky situation!

I may have to keep my eye out for the next books in this series - I especially want to read Lenore's story since she is an introvert and a bookworm who works in a bookstore :)

I'm very glad that I got this as a free eARC and I will be keeping my eyes out for the next in the series!
