This series is so fun. I enjoy cozy mysteries - and especially ones with a paranormal flair. Beechwood Harbor Magic Mystery series meets that, with a side of humor to top it off.

I had taken a break from this series for quite a while, but I easily fell back into Beechwood Harbor, including the characters and the ongoing story lines. And since it's narrated by one of my favorite snarky narrators - Amanda Ronconi - I felt like I was back with some good friends and laughed a lot. I enjoy seeing the way all the character's lives are developing.

The mystery was interesting and kept me guessing - while I saw pieces ahead of the reveal, I did not catch the full picture until they solved it too. I also really enjoyed the continuation of Holly and Adam's relationship. And things are coming along with her business too - I can't wait to see her shop open, though I'm definitely nervous to see how it will play out. Things are a little bit intense at the Harbor too - and that was not settled in this book.

It ends in, not a cliff per-say, but definitely with a bit of anticipation for what may be coming on several fronts - especially the romance and Holly's business.

Things are busy at the manor and for Holly. She is getting ready to open her new potion shop and has Harmony, whom we met from the Touch of Magic series, helping her. She and her boyfriend Adam whose relationship still boggles me are making plans.

The manor is full, with a Supernatural Protection Agent living among them when they learn a princess will board with them. This brings another guest who proves to be trouble. Posy, the ghostly owner of the manor is losing it and Holly and the others become caught up when the Princess goes missing. Nick and others joined in as the gang headed to a magical farm.

It was an intense installment, but Garrett weaved in some humor and normalcy as she delivered an interesting mystery and frustrated me before Holly made some decisions which pleased me.

I am quite curious to see what the next audiobook brings. While they resolved the Princess mystery, things are up in the air with the manor and threads concerning Holly’s Potions store.

Amanda Ronconi narrates this series and does such an excellent job capturing the characters and tones of the tales. I can’t imagine not listening to the series. This review was originally posted at Caffeinated Reviewer
