I received this book for free. I am voluntarily leaving this review and all opinions expressed herein are mine.
This is the second book in the Westwick Witches series. It is a standalone story with no cliffhanger ending. There are some references to events and characters from the first book but the author graciously provides a recap. However, to really get a feel for this madcap family – start with the first book.
Here, Cen has a job interview and a date with the Sheriff – but Aunt Pearl has other plans for Cen [and her mother] as she kidnaps them in a “borrowed” RV, claims to have won the lottery and takes everyone to Las Vegas. But that’s not all, Aunt Pearl’s friend – with mob attachments – has died under suspicious circumstances but no one is investigating, Cen is now mysteriously attracted to the friend’s grandson and the deceased’s friend’s husband has disappeared. And Cen is in the middle of it all trying to get back home and keep her family out of the crossfire.
This series is such a hoot! Aunt Pearl just can’t help herself with all her misdirections, misleading statements and spells are wreaking havoc – she is my favorite character in this series. Then – the funeral scene where Cen has to take Aunt Pearl’s place as a pallbearer was shockingly funny. It’s just one crazy thing after another with Aunt Pearl – and lots of fun. So grab yourself your favorite beverage and sit back to enjoy the ride.
The narrator is great, as always. She does different character voices and clearly is having just as much narrating this book as you will have listening to it.
