About this eBook

Welcome to Everlasting, Maine, where there's no such thing as normal.

Anna Crawford is well aware her town is filled with supernaturals, but she isn't exactly willing to embrace her paranormal gifts. Her aunt says she's a witch-in-denial. All Anna wants is to live a quiet "normal" life and run her business, Witch's Brew Coffee Shop and Bakery. But everything is about to be turned upside down the moment Jackson Argent walks into her life.

Jackson isn't sure why he agreed to come back to his boyhood home of Everlasting. It's like a spell was cast and he couldn't say no. Covering the Cranberry Festival isn't exactly the hard-hitting news this reporter is used to. But when a local death is ruled an accident, and the police aren't interested in investigating, he takes it upon himself to get to the bottom of the mystery. To do that, he'll need to enlist the help of the beautiful coffee shop owner.

It soon becomes apparent things are not what they seem and more than coffee is brewing in Everlasting.

Ratings and reviews

This book is lots of fun to read. There are a number of mysteries that are skillfully woven together with a romance and magic by Michelle M. Pillow. The clues come out slowly but the romance between coffee shop owning Anna and journalist Jackson develops fast.(Pun intended! You will get it when you read the book). A lovely magical read. Enjoy I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review

This is the third story in the "Happily Everlasting World" series. It is a stand alone read set in the small town of Everlasting, Maine. Everything is not always as it seems in this town. This story is a little be different from the previous stories I have read from this author. I enjoyed every bit of this one. I love the characters! This is Anna and Jackson's story. It is a nicely developed paranormal read with mystery, romance, craziness, drama and good twists.

4 Star review of Fooled Around and Spelled (The Happily Everlasting Series #3) by Michelle M Pillow Audio Review: Michelle M Pillow is a new author to me as is the narrator B.J. Harrison and I have no idea why that is. It’s a cozy mystery set in Everlasting, Maine (love the name) and one that I found enjoyable. There are twists, turns and surprises in Fooled Around and Spelled as Anna Crawford buries her head in the sand as she tries to deny her paranormal abilities and focus on running Witch's Brew Coffee Shop and Bakery (again I just love the name). All that changes when Jackson Argent, a reporter returns home to Everlasting to report on the local festival. When a a body turns up, he isn’t satisfied with the findings and decides to investigate and asks Anna to help him. What follows is a story filled with romance, mystery, humour, secrets and danger, with enough clues to satisfy my inner detective spirit. The narrator BJ Harrison was also new to me but I thoroughly enjoyed the voices that were used and they brought the story to life for me and enhanced my enjoyment of the story.
