I'm so honored to be a stop on the
blog tour for
PUTTING ON THE WITCH
Book 3 in the Retired Witches Mysteries
by
Joyce and Jim Lavene
In the latest mystery from the bestselling authors of Looking for Mr. Good Witch, the retired witches of Wilmington, North Carolina, are ready to kick up their heels...
With their coven’s spell book still missing, Molly and Elsie—along with their ghostly friend Olivia, her daughter Dorothy, and her boyfriend Brian—are all on edge, especially now that Dorothy’s infamously wicked father is back in the picture. So when they receive an invitation to an exclusive Witches Ball, the ladies jump at the chance to dress up and have some fun.
The castle locale is spectacular and the party is hopping, but the festivities come to a swift end when a member of the Grand Council of Witches is murdered. With the whole place on lock down, the coven is determined to find the cunning killer, even with an angry council and a real Spanish Inquisitor breathing down their necks...

MY REVIEW
If you want me to watch a fantasy series on TV or at the
movies, the Retired Witches Mystery series by authors Joyce and Jim Lavene
needs to be picked up for that option!
If you are expecting to read your typical para-cozy when you
read PUTTING ON THE WITCH, you are truly in for a major surprise. I suggest you
plan plenty of time to read this story, because once you pick it up, you’re not
going to want to put it down.
PUTTING ON THE WITCH, book three in the amazing Retired
Witches Mysteries, is so much more than a cozy/para-cozy mystery. Contained between
the covers of this book is an epic, magical adventure that carried me away in a
mystical cloud of reading. I marvel that the written word could transport me in
such a way. Each sight, each sound, each smell described, were as real to me as
those in my everyday life. Not until the last word did I realize I had been
sitting in my living room the entire time, and my magical journey had been a
stunningly written fantasy.
Joyce and Jim Lavene will always wear the crowns of Queen
and King of the para-cozies (Their regular cozies are just at sensational and
memorable, and in no way regular at all). There have never been, and never will
be again two authors who have changed my concept of reading the way the authors
Lavene have, and I offer them my sincerest Thank You for that.
Enjoy the journey sweet
King and Queen.
Beautiful Lisa!
