Secrets

Darcy Merriweather is concealing so many secrets, from so many people, that it’s no wonder she has a constant headache these days. And she has a lot on her mind. Her wedding is coming up very soon. A mysterious stranger gives her a very mysterious gift. The Elder Renewal is coming up, and there’s a battle going on to try to keep it from happening, which could destroy Darcy’s entire world. And, of course, someone gets murdered! Darcy, as the sole Craft Investigator, has an incredible amount to worry about, and the many details she has to take care of are baffling, almost overwhelming. But Darcy has matured a lot in the two years since she and her sister Harper came to the Enchanted Village; the things she has learned and the friends she has made have given her the solid base of skills and wisdom she needs at this most crucial time of her life. Heather Blake has crafted another book full of magic, suspense, mystery, and love, and every page has been well worth the wait.

This is the final book in the wonderfully enchanting Wishcraft Mysteries, and as sad as it is that there won’t be another sparkling “Darcy Day” coming, this s a satisfying ending to the story. The people of the Enchanted Village seem so real that it feels as if they have now shared with the rest of us all of the story they feel the need to share. At least for now. I can’t help but hope someday they’ll decide to share a bit more! In the meantime, I know I, for one, will be re-reading the entire series a few more times.

A fitting end to this series

I am so sad to see this series end. I will say that the author did a great job of tying everything up. I even found myself getting choked up on a few spots. This is the first time that I have actually did a good job of actually suspecting the right person of course it was one of three that I thought it might be. All of my favorite characters including Pepe and Mrs. P were present and a few I do not care for, but were necessary for the story. This series has been a source of enjoyment.

The best of the best....

While I am saddened that this is the end of this series, I am grateful to Heather Blake for the gift of this book, and this series. I have enjoyed sharing the lives of the people of the Enchanted Village over the years. They have become like family, and Heather created them in a way that I could totally believe the premise that witches are living along side mortals in this charming place. There were so many situations that have come up in prior books, and Heather managed to bring everything to a satisfying resolution in this one book. This book is truly the best of the best. I was so happy with how things unfolded for Harper, Glenda, Vince, the Elder, Nick, Darcy and...oh, I guess everyone else in the village. So, while I'm sorry that this series has ended, I am glad to have this book - and the others in the series - to listen to over and over. And I should also mention that the voice artist, Coleen Marlo, did an amazing job narrating this series.

Must read

Loved this book. It takes place in the town of the Enchanted Village. Darcy and Nick are getting ready for their wedding. Where the bridal was to happen a fire breaks out and one of the owners is found dead. Nick the police chief and Darcy try to find out who killed Leyna. They keep running into road blocks and with the help of their friends they are resolved to find the killer. It takes to many twist and turns. It keep me on pins and needles to the very end. I really wanted more. You will really enjoy reading this book and any of her other books.
