The Bell Witches was a cute, whimsical witchy story heavy with the heat of a Savannah summer. It flirts with an edge of darkness but strays only briefly from the path.
Newly orphaned Emily James is plucked from her life in grey, rainy Wales and rescued by a Grandmother she didn't know existed. But, is anything what it seems in sunny Savannah?
The setting of this novel was beautifully evocative, you could smell the hot tarmac and feel the Spanish Moss brushing against your shoulders. The style of the prose helped to bring the scenery to life and the images of nature coming alive within the walls of Bell House were wonderfully wrought.
The love story here was super cute, Wyn was a great MMC and despite their story coming together quite quickly, you could suspend disbelief and imagine the two of them falling in love.
The plot was just fine for me. Some of the twists were fairly obvious to me, some not so much. The pacing was pretty solid all the way through though the ending felt a little rushed.
Overall, this was an entertaining read though it isn't going to leave a long impression.
