Book Description

WHAT BOOK REVIEWERS ARE SAYING
“This book is delicious!”

“This book takes Twilight and others like it to the next level!”

“The dialogue and emotions are real and raw, there are some expletives and sexual fantasy scenes but I felt they worked with the characters and gave them more of an edge to their creation. Oftentimes the author used comedic wit to the scenes giving it an even more humanistic appeal to the characters.”

“I have a feeling that Hayden is going to end up with a lot of fans, and if you're the type of person who tends to fall for the bad boys with hearts of gold, you should probably brace yourself for a new literary crush before picking up Something Witchy This Way Comes!”

“From teen to adult, I can't imagine anyone not absolutely adoring this book.”

SOMETHING WITCHY THIS WAY COMES
Brainiac Tessa McClean’s newly discovered magical powers give her an escape from her self-absorbed parents. But the thrill of being a witch fades when she learns of a rival coven and begins to suspect her own coven’s motives. Evidence tells Tessa to trust one side, but instinct drives her toward the other.

When the school’s scrumptious delinquent, Hayden Anders, offers Tessa self-defense lessons in exchange for tutoring, his timing couldn’t be better. Although hanging out with him is a necessary evil in Tessa’s fight to stay alive, resisting a bad-boy she secretly yearns for might be more than she can manage.

Together, Tessa and Hayden work to unravel the mysteries behind the two covens to discover why they’ll stop at nothing to lure Tessa to their side. She must form an alliance with one of the covens before it’s too late. But the wrong decision could cost Tessa the lives of all who she holds dear — including Hayden.

MORE RAVE REVIEWS
“What I loved about this book was that it dove straight into my emotions. When she and Hayden had a steamy scene, I felt it too. When she was getting into trouble, I was biting my nails. When she discovered truths, I gasped and even cried. It was a great emotional roller coaster...”

“The author creates a ton of tension and suspense even though as the reader, we know what each character is thinking and feeling. It takes a very creative person to accomplish something like that.”

“Action packed, and fast paced… Overall, a great read with intriguing characters.”

“Something Witchy This Way Comes is full of paranormal twists and turns, self-discoveries, courage, loyalty, trust and surprises. I thoroughly enjoyed each and every aspect of this book. Veronica Blade has an incredible talent for story telling and bringing characters to life vividly, to really allow the reader to invest themselves within both Tessa and Hayden, as well as the secondary characters.”

“This is a must read for all lovers of Paranormal books! Veronica Blade you have out done yourself!”

“Veronica Blade has an easy style that swiftly carries the reader from start to finish and lovers of romance will greatly appreciate the will-they-won't-they tension between her two main characters.”

“With her breezy irreverence, remarkable self-assurance, and beguiling innocence, Tessa’s voice is the one I enjoyed the most. Personally, I would have liked the entire tale to have been told from her perspective exclusively. However, Hayden’s voice grew on me after a bit, and I soon relished seeing situations through his eyes, as well.”

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprising very good! November 14, 2011
Format:Paperback
First Impressions: Every once in a while, I like to take on a book that seems to be a bit of an underdog. Usually it's something that catches my attention, but flies under most people's radar. Something Witchy This Way Comes had a neat cover and once I read the synopsis, it seemed like it would be something I would enjoy.

My Review: I ended up really enjoying this book. It was a nice and easy read and it seemed to just fly on by. The writer has a way of moving the plot along at a laid-back speed that I thought made this book stand out. I also liked the alternating first- person POV's between the main characters, Hayden and Tessa. I'm not a huge fan of first-person perspectives, so that is saying something since I actually enjoyed them in this title.

While I did like the character Tessa, Hayden was my favorite! He changes so much throughout the course of the story and it was fun to see him grow as a character. He starts out as the ultimate bad-boy, but once you dig a little deeper, you find out that he might not be so bad after all. His character was really fun. Oh, and super hot!

The romance between these two characters was super entertaining and fun to read about. I liked being able to tell what each character was thinking and how they felt towards one another. Usually, we only get to see one person's perspective, especially when it comes to romance. The author creates a ton of tension and suspense even though as the reader, we know what each character is thinking and feeling. It takes a very creative person to accomplish something like that.

I will say that I do have a couple small disappointments. When I had read the book synopsis, I thought that the main plot line would be about the paranormal aspect of witches and covens and such, with a romantic sub-plot. It ended up, in my opinion, the other way around. I think the romance most definitely took precedence over the paranormal and that was semi-disappointing. Usually if the actual book is nothing like the book's synopsis I wouldn't give this good of a review or recommend it. In this case, I did really enjoy the romantic plot of the book even though it wasn't what I was suspected. Just be warned that if you aren't into a lot of romance, you might not care too much for this book, but I hope you will give it a try.

Final Thoughts: Altogether, I think that author did a pretty good job with this book. I think it will appeal to an older teen and while I wasn't prepared for that much romance, I did really like the book. I think that the author could have added in some more action and made the book a little darker, but if you like nice and easy reads, this one would be a good choice!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Enjoyable Ride! September 6, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
I thoroughly enjoyed Something Witchy and totally recommend it if you're looking for a great read. This story wasn't dystopian or too dark, but wasn't too fluffy either. Perfect!

This author has subtle humor and I liked that there were witches and magic but the focus was on the romance between Hayden and Tessa. More perfections. The romance is almost always my favorite part!

I loved Hayden and I didn't care that he was way too young for me. He was HOT. Who doesn't love a bad-boy now and then? Especially one who, once he gets to know Tessa, realizes that other girls pale next to her. He's never met someone like her, grows as a character, and realizes she's worth working for.

Tessa has a less than desirable home life but she's very protective of her little sister, Bree. Tessa worries over who will take care of Bree when she moves out one day. So, when Tessa learns she has natural magical powers that she only needs to nurture, she thinks it'll be easier to take care of Bree. Wrong. Now, not only does she have to worry about being a casualty in the war between the witch covens, she has to keep Bree safe too. Yikes!

But Hayden is there to help.... With his big, strong muscles... but I digress.

I loved living their moments together and watching these two opposites fall in love. The kisses were steamy and all-in-all, I found it a very enjoyable ride.

More About the Author

Veronica Blade lives in Southern California with her husband and children. By day she runs the family business, but each night she slips away to spin her tales. She writes stories about young adults to relive her own childhood and to live vicariously through her characters. Except her heroes and heroines lead far more interesting lives -- and they are always way hotter.

That's the official bio. The unofficial bio is that I, Veronica Blade, am an addict. I love all things vampires and witches and werewolves -- the stranger, the better! My favorite shows are The Vampire Diaries and True Blood. And, okay, I admit it, I'm still a huge Buffy fan.

Currently, I have two full length novels available (my most recent release, My Wolf's Bane, and Something Witchy This Way Comes) and three novellas, plus three very short stories -- the Single Girls Micro Trilogy. Everything I write is sweet romance, but I just might throw in some witches, vamps or werewolves -- sometimes all of the above (but always light on the paranormal, heavy on the romance).

Summer of 2013, my next full length novel will be available -- Wolves at the Door, which is the sequel to My Wolf's Bane (second installment of the Shapes of Autumn series). This is YA and all about werewolves and other shifters. And, of course, lots of sweet romance.

I answer all my emails personally. If you'd like to contact me, you find me at veronica@veronicablade.com or FaceBook -- where I spend way too much time. I look forward to hearing from you!!

Happy reading!
Veronica Blade
