"Casting Spells" - Review

7/21/2014

This weekend I spent sometime with some old friends in the town of Sugar Maple, Vermont!  This is the second time I have read Casting Spells by Barbara Bretton and this time I made it a point to review it.  This light read is packed full of wonders and amazing characters!

Crazy, quirky, and delightfully fluffy!
3 star writing / 4 star story

Series: Yes, book 1 of "Sugar Maple"
Characters: Luke and Chloe
Setting: Sugar Maple, Vermont
Sexual Themes: barely a blip on the radar

Recommendation:  If you need a light read, love to knit, and have a special spot in your heart for the paranormal Sugar Maple is a town you should visit.  This is not a difficult read, the romance is straight forward and the story is relatively predictable, but with all that the town is full of wit and splendor you simply cannot miss!
Sugar Maple is a small town in Vermont with nothing out of the ordinary about it. Except there hasn't been a recorded death in hundreds of years, no births and zero crimes.  They didn't even have a police force... until now.  When a young politician's girlfriend dies within their boarders, Sugar Maple is catapulted into a whirlwind of events that could lead to their salvation, or their downfall.

Chloe Hobbs is a young witch with no powers, a town of frustrated friends and an unending basket of possible knit projects.  As the mayor of the small town it's Chloe's job to prove her worth and protect the tiny town's secret from their new resident cop, Luke. 

The story is enchanting without being heavy and too full of drama, the writing leaves Chloe's situation light-hearted and laughable.  While Chloe and Luke's romance is present, this is not a romance novel, the love story is simply a story telling device and if you're looking for a deep romance, filled with passion and heartache, look elsewhere.
