Lily Locke has never believed in witches and wizards, ghosts and magic, shifters and vampires--especially cute blonde vamps with blood-intolerance issues. A rising star at a hotshot marketing agency in Minneapolis, Minnesota, all Lily knows is that she's a PowerPoint guru, an Excel ninja, and a coffee-maker extraordinaire. Not to mention she's next in line for a huge promotion. All that changes when Lily's assistant delivers a strange quiz to her, one titled A Magical Assessment for Normal Folks. With it comes the promise of a land she's never known existed. A land where Lily not only discovers her biological family for the first time, but a place where she can make a difference, change lives, and step into the role she's destined to fulfill. But first, Lily must admit she's a witch. Then, she has to acknowledge that the tall, dark, and mysterious man who offers his help is strictly focused on business ... at least, for now. When a body turns up dead and the next target is Lily, she must trust her powers and accept the help of her newfound friends. Otherwise, she'll never survive the trials of the magical island tucked far, far away in the frigid waters of Lake Superior.… (more)

Fell flat of stephanie plum. Someone described it as Harry Potter meets Plum... nothing really happened in the first book, but set up the second book. Interested enough to maybe read the next, but a mindless read. Plum makes me laugh out loud... this, not so much. Got it free on Kindle, so can't complain ( )

At least it was free? (sort of, through KU) There was an attempt to give her a large bustle of female relatives, too bad they were all almost identical, and as deep as a puddle. Big lack of believability all around in this story. ( )

Hex on the Beach was my Facebook book club selection for June. It was my first time reading author Gina LaManna.

This was an absolutely entertaining book to read! When things take a dive for Lily, a couple of unknown eccentric aunts come to the rescue. They take Lily off to a hidden magical island, but is it a magical paradise or will it be the end of Lily? With island residents like the mysterious, handsome Ranger X, cousins as entertaining as their mothers, a cantankerous mixology teacher and a kooky grandmother Lily has a lot of support. Support she will need after the murder of first customer and jealous contenders for her job making island life difficult.

The characters in this book are awesome! The plot was enchanting. I laughed out loud. I worriedly bit my nails. I couldn't put the book down until I finished it. I can't wait to read more from this series. This book gets a definite recommendation! ( )

Hex on the Beach
(Magic & Mixology #1)
by Gina LaManna

This was a fun book. A young gal looses her job when her presentation seems to come alive on the screen. Too bad it was a lion! She gets a visit by two strange women who say they are her aunts and want to take her home which is a magical island for witches. After a great display of witchery, she agrees.

Once there, life gets really weird! A secretive and handsome Ranger starts protecting her. Someone is trying to kill her. She meets her crazy and caring family and so much more!

This was just the book I needed at the time. Something light and fun with a mystery and a touch of romance. Humor sprinkled throughout. ( )

Not a Pagan witchy book, I guess we're in now but humorous in a cozy mystery fashion ( )
