Hannah Miller moved to Sanctuary to start over with a new life and a new business venture with best friend, Kirrah Walker. What she doesn’t anticipate is being a target for Waken Assassin by the hottest guy she’s ever met. Sage is a witch who is sent to kill Hannah and he normally has no trouble doing his job but this one has him trembling in his boots. He has avoided Salem since the 1692 Witch trials and he is not eager to go back there. When he meets Hannah, however, he finds something far more desirable than fulfilling his mission- falling in love with a human. For these two lovers, two worlds will collide as conflict in Ru-Noc will spill over into the human world.

Ms. Shay is masterful storyteller and she keeps the tension alive in her second Winslow Witches book, WITCH’S HEART. This story is full of intriguing characters, humor, magic and more that will keep the reader entertained for hours. I loved the dynamics between Hannah and Sage. Ms. Shay keeps the sexual tension on simmer for most of the story and it explodes between these two when you least expect it. I love Ms. Shay’s world building and how she keeps the world of Ru-Noc interesting with each book in this series.

WITCH’S HEART tells the story of Hannah Miller, a woman bent on rebuilding her life the way she wants it and is enjoying her new business, Sugar & Spice Bakery with best friend Kirrah Walker. What she doesn’t anticipate is hottie witch Sage to come, claiming he is there to exterminate her. When these two people cross paths, sparks fly, passion goes into boiling and then explodes in a shower that rains over the reader. WITCH’S HEART delivers some really nasty evil doers that made me shudder, add in conflict that threatens not just Ru-Noc but the human world as well, stir and you get Ms. Shay’s wonderful WITCH’S HEART.

WITCH’S HEART has some humor, magical elements, passion and more that will keep the reader flipping the pages till the very end. If you are looking for a engrossing story, then pick up Ms. Shay’s Winslow Witches series. I highly recommend reading the first book in the series as it introduces the world of Ru-Noc and the many characters that populate there. Run; don’t walk, to grab this book as well as WITCH'S BREW (book 1) for your reading pleasure.

THIS IS NOT AN ENDORSEMENT OF THIS BOOK. THIS IS AN OBJECTIVE UNBIASED REVIEW.

Wizards, magic and witches come alive in Sanctuary and Saylym Winslow is determined to forget she ever has magic in her blood. It brings nothing but trouble to her thinking. That is until sexy Talon, a Waken Prince and assassin comes to her door to kill Saylym. Now the race is on as she tries to stay alive and try to keep her wits about her as she battles Talon……witches style!

WITCH’S BREW is the beginning of a wonderful series by author Tabitha Shay and one that is not your typical paranormal story. A wonderful blend of characters and a fast paced storyline keep the readers entertained from start to finish. Ms. Shay delves deep into the paranormal world and delivers a sparkling new twist on the genre with WITCH’S BREW. You have delightfully multidimensional characters that can make you laugh, sigh or scream at and the twists in the story have you scrambling to the next page, aching to see what happens next. This reviewer was enchanted to see a new twist on witches, magic and the paranormal genre in general. The writing was tight; fast paced and keeps the readers attention till the very last page.

In WITCH’S BREW, you meet Saylym Winslow, a enchanting woman who denies she is a witch, can’t stand magic and ends up finding out that yes, she is indeed a witch! Lightness and a delight, she is a wonderful character that can make you laugh out loud one minute and on the edge of your seat the next. Well, until sexy Talon, Waken Prince, comes to her door ready to kill her just for being a witch. What is a girl to do except give him a run for his money and make sure she stays alive in the process. Talon is a delightful alpha male character that has wonderful depth and finds that he cannot kill the fiery witch in front of him. He is enamored and soon finds himself at odds with the Waken Guild. This reviewer loved the sparks that Saylym and Talon delivered throughout the book. Ms. Shay definitely captures their true essence and spirit within WITCH’S BREW. Add in some really evil nemesis’s that chase after Saylym and Talon, a battle of the sexes-witches style and some great secondary characters that had this reviewer wondering if there will be spin offs for them, you get a delightful start to a series in WITCH’S BREW.

Ms. Shay definitely grabs your attention with her twist on the paranormal and this reviewer can only ask….when is the next coming? Get ready for a wonderful Halloween Treat as WITCH’S BREW blows you away with captivating characters, edge of the seat plot and a start of a series that has you clamoring for more!
