Raven’s Hollow Spring Magic
Tena Stetler
Magic Fantasy Romance
Spring is in full bloom in Raven’s Hollow, a small town in the Colorado Rockies with a population of unique townspeople. Blaze, a dragon shifter, and Wynter, a witch, are neck-deep in wedding preparations, when Wynter’s mother, Jade, goes missing after opening her new antique store, and attending the Simon estate sale where she procured an ancient jelly bean machine. Frantic with worry, Blaze and Wynter track her last movements via the store’s ancient, grainy, security footage. What it reveals is nothing short of shocking. As deputy sheriff, it’s Blaze’s responsibility to find his soon-to-be mother-in-law. But at what cost?
Uncaged Review: This book takes off soon after the Meringue Snowflake Magic, with Wynter in full wedding planning mode, and Syndi getting closer to Cory – who works for Blaze at the pizza place. When Wynter’s mother Jade, finds an old jellybean machine at an estate sale, everyone finds out very quickly that the jellybean machine isn’t just a jellybean machine as it whisks Jade away in a vortex. With hopes of retrieving her, Blaze sets the machine in motion and disappears also. Wynter is stressing out, now both Jade and Blaze are gone, and the wedding is in 2 weeks. Meanwhile, Syndi finally finds out the magical secret to Cory, but will she be able to handle it?
You could reasonably read this as a standalone, but reading the Meringue Snowflake Magic book will get you in the loop how it all began in this supernatural town before starting this one. This is another shorter read, easily read in one day and the characters are all back along a few new ones in this follow-up. The pace is quick and there isn’t much waste in this story. Humor, romance and more pizza – all served up nicely, and let’s not forget the wonderful Cocoa. Reviewed by Cyrene
