Editorial Reviews

Review

"...an unusual deviation from traditional romantic suspense. Linda Andrews has devised an original plot that encompasses humor and some unusual paranormal elements. The plot moves along with just enough action and mishaps to keep the reader guessing." -- Fallen Angel Reviews "...a story so vivid, so detailed that the reader can almost see the leaves; smell the ripe harvest and feel the electricity sizzle between Lonnie and Nick. This is romance sprinkled with just the right amount of magic for two souls who feel a mutual attraction toward the other. With a sharp dialogue and amusing characters this page-turner is truly gratifying that hooked this reader from the first page." -- Lighthouse Literary Reviews FOUR HEARTS "This is a great story, full of love and laughter during a Halloween never to be forgotten." -- The Romance Studio --This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Some Enchanted Autumn, January 21, 2012

This review is from: Some Enchanted Autumn (Paperback)

Avalon Lynch (Lonnie) - a witch from the town of Pumpkin (where everyone loves Halloween) and Sheriff Nicholas Dugan (Nick/The Dugan) from the twin town Holly (where Christmas is really big) have to investigate together a prankster that causes quite a stir in the two towns that were once one town named Blessing. Since the separation of the two towns the people from Holly and Pumpkin stayed also completely separated because of a curse and incidents a long time ago.

Since Lonnie and Nick are falling in love with each other on their way to find the prankster - they also try to reunite the two towns and throw light on the circumstances that once separated the towns in the first place.

Some Enchanted Autumn is indeed an 'enchanted' and magical Halloween story. Halloween is my favorite holiday, so I had a lot of fun with Lonnie and Nick in 'Halloweentown' Pumpkin, where magic is real and skeletons don't always stay in their graves as they should...

The book is well written - with lots of humor. I really liked Lonnie and Nick from the start. Some Enchanted Autumn is a sweet romantic suspense story that reminded me of Romeo and Juliet - but with humor and a far less tragic ending. - A Keeper!

If you are a fan of Halloween, magic and a romantic mysteries I can highly recommend this book to you.

Avalon "Lonnie" Lynch wants nothing more than to leave her heritage behind. She doesn't want to be a witch, but sometimes fate will have its way no matter what. When she comes home to Pumpkin to celebrate Halloween, a prankster is on the loose. Someone wants to ruin the holiday and it can only be a person from their rival town of Holly.

Nicholas "The Dugan" Dugan is sent from his home town of Holly over to Pumpkin to investigate all the mysterious incidents occurring. When a skeleton literally falls on top of him, things really get interesting. Of course, it has absolutely nothing to do with the gorgeous Lonnie to whom he is bound by a magic spell until the mystery is resolved. Or does it? Will their families' histories, which caused the rivalry between the towns, get in the way of their true love found?

Some Enchanted Autumn by Linda Andrews is an all around cute, funny, feel-good kind of story. The characters are quirky and the storyline engaging. This reviewer especially loved the terminology used as expletives in the story. Who can resist someone whose favorite expression when they are frustrated is "Cracked Cauldrons!" or "Sugar Cookies?" Readers will chuckle several times over the antics of the townspeople.

Lonnie and Nick are perfect for each other, as much as they dislike each other in the beginning. How they overcome their doubts about one another is sure to delight readers. The supporting cast is bubbling with fun. The fear of Pumpkin's residents of "The Dugan," their version of the boogeyman is amusing, as is the grudging respect they give him in the end. However, two characters in particular, who happen to be skeletons, will steal the show every time they make an appearance. One comes to look forward to their scenes, just waiting to see what kind of mischief they'll get in to next.

Some Enchanted Autumn is, to put it simply... enchanting! This reviewer now intends to get a copy of The Christmas Village, so as to spend more time in this delightful world.
