About this ebook

Welcome to Keating Hollow, the enchanted town full of love, family, and magic.

This set includes books 1 and 2 of the Keating Hollow series, Soul of the Witch and Heart of the Witch.

Soul of the Witch:At age eighteen, after a potion tragically backfired, Abby Townsend left Keating Hollow and her magic behind to find redemption. Ten years later, after being summoned by her family, she’s back. As soon as she drives into town, she’s already plotting her inevitable exit, but she can’t quite escape the pull of the tightly knit magical community or the soulful gaze of the one man she’s never forgotten. And when an eight-year old witch not only leads her back to her magic, but also steals her heart, Abby’s about to learn what it means to embrace the soul of a witch.

"Soul of the Witch feels like it maybe got touched by just a little bit of Witch Central’s DNA." ~ Debora Geary, bestselling author of A Modern Witch


Heart of the Witch:

There are only three things that were ever important to Noel Townsend—love, family, and magic. Two out of three aren’t bad. She’s blessed with a large close-knit family and her magic has never been stronger. But love? That ended three years ago when her husband walked out on her and her daughter and never looked back.

These days Noel only has room in her pieced-together heart for her six-year old daughter. But when Drew Baker shows up on the doorstep of her inn with news of her husband, fate has other plans. And so does Drew. If he can get past her defenses, Drew is going to do everything in his power to heal the heart of a witch.

Ratings and reviews

Soul of the Witch is the story of witches, family, friendship, magic, guilt, tragedy, lost love, forgiveness and so much more. The Townsend family has four girls: Faith, Noel, Yvette and Abby who were raised by their father, Lincoln. Soul of the Witch focuses on Abby. The point-of-view alternates between Abby and Clay. I like that we get to see things from each character’s perspective. Soul of the Witch is well written and has a steady pace. The story contains great characters with my favorites being Daisy and Olive. Val is the villain of the story and she adds drama (one of those characters that you love to dislike). It allows readers to see what Clay will do to protect his daughter (we get to see his core beliefs). Abby is a complex character. She has been living in New Orleans where she earns a living creating soaps and lotions infused with a touch of magic as well as selling her art. Abby has a boyfriend who has become focused on himself (his career and how Abby can help him succeed). She needs to understand what exactly happened ten years ago which means talking to Charlotte’s mother. Keating Hollow is a small town where everyone knows your business. The descriptions of the delectable delights available at A Spoon Full of Magic will have your mouth watering and wishing you could transport yourself into the story. For those of you that enjoy alcoholic beverages, there are some creative brews available at Townsend’s Keating Hollow Brewery. There is a scene near the end that will just melt your heart (one of those “ahhhh” moments). It is a heartwarming, magical story that will delight fans of Denna Chase. In Heart of the Witch, We get to catch up with Abby, Clay, Yvette as well as Lin Townsend. We see how everyone is moving forward with their lives and how Lincoln is handling is treatments. Lin gives Daisy a puppy which adds to the family chaos (and cute factor). They are a close-knit family who love each other and are there for each other (supportive in good times and bad). I found the golf carts and the races hilarious. I would not mind having one myself decked out in my favorite colors (red and blue). The story is told from Noel and Drew’s POV. I like getting to see things from both of their point of views (men and women see things very differently). Deanna combined magic, mystery, family, and romance into one enchanting story in Heart of the Witch.

Soul of a Witch Wow what a great story line...I love how Keating Hollow is a town of witches who each have their own abilities controlled by the elements. Abby came back to Keating Hollow because her Dad is sick after having been away for 10 years...only to have to confront some ghosts of her past...an old flame helps her in many ways... Love the characters in this book can not wait for the second book Heart of a Witch My second visit to Keating Hollow and I am still in love with the fictional town. I loved this book. Heart of the Witch finds us learning more about Noel Townsend...whose life was turned upside down when her husband left her and her daughter...and no he is back Thank goodness for the close-knit family that Noel belongs to. And of course the deputy The golf cart races sounds like so much fun...if only I had sisters closer to my age like the Townsend girls...we may have tried the races ourselves... Deanna Chase brings to life every character she writes about...and I am anxious for the next Keating Hollow book so that we get answers about the new guy
