Synopsis
Awakening Magic - The Witches of Blackwell Book 1 : A Midlife Urban Fantasy Mystery
By Tanya M Smith
Narrated by Gill Mills
Witches, ancient magic, and a dark curse from the past. Blackwell is running out of time.
When recently divorced Megan Harland receives a mysterious key and is summoned to the coastal town of Blackwell, she expects awkward family business, not a magical inheritance.
At forty-one, Megan feels as though she’s drifting into midlife with nothing much to offer. However, Rowan Hall has other ideas. Her bickering familiars are determined to help with her new role as High Witch, and old friendships must be rekindled if she’s to trust her new powers and herself again.
No sooner has she arrived than strange events begin to unfold, long-buried memories stir, and Megan is drawn into a hidden world of witchcraft, ancient magic, and a coven she never knew existed.
But something dark is rising in Blackwell.
As Megan’s powers awaken, she finds herself caught between secret forces, dangerous enemies who are determined to stop her, and an ancient curse that has blighted the town for generations.
If she can’t uncover the truth and claim the magic that was always hers, the darkness threatening Blackwell won’t just destroy the town; it will destroy her one chance at a new life.
And if the coven’s power falls into the wrong hands, the world will be changed forever.
Awakening Magic, Book 1 of the Witches of Blackwell, is perfect for fans of fast-paced urban fantasy and paranormal mystery. Read it now if you love the hidden world of witchcraft, ancient magic versus dangerous modern conspiracies, found family, dark secrets, a hint of slow-burn romance, a sprinkle of humour, and a powerful midlife main character discovering who she was always meant to be.
