Flea Market Magic

Southern Relics Cozy Mysteries Series 1

By: Bella Falls

Narrated by: Johanna Parker

A little sweet tea and a whole lot of spells won't always put out the fire...

Welcome to Jewell, North Carolina, a small strip of land on the Crystal Coast with no stop signs or traffic lights, but it's got a whole lot of magic. Ruby Mae Jewell helps run the family business of selling antiques and refurbished goods. But with old objects, you never know when one of them possesses more than just dust and cobwebs.

When Rue hits up a flea market, she gets more than she bargained for. Finding a potentially dangerous magical object, she has to get it off the market and out of mortal hands. But when more research reveals its threatening nature to the magical community as well, she's put to the test of what to do...especially when they find someone murdered on their land who was looking for it.

Ruby Mae struggles to balance doing the right thing and saving her family at all costs. But when things turn from bad to worse, it may get harder for her to know which choices to make.

Will her fiery personality and powers be able to solve the mystery before anyone else gets hurt or will Ruby Mae's efforts to solve the murder go up in smoke?

I THINK I HAVE FOUND A NEW AUTHOR!

This magical object story, chock full of ancestral ghosts is right down my alley! I loved it and really look forward to reading/listening to everything Bella Falls has published if they are anything like this. OMG the covers, how beautiful are they? The colour, font and CATS. Yes I'd put a bib on that hound dog, eat everything Granny the ghost cooked, scratch the cousin behind the ear and go to every flea market with Jewell. RECOMMENDED CLEAN FUN MAGICAL GHOSTLY STORIES!

Great Story

Very entertaining, with lots of interesting characters. I love the narrator, she gave just right amount of slang to the heroine.

Narrator

Good story and characters. The narrator’s husky odd cadence was distracting. Overall enjoyable cozy tale.

Cosy all the way.

Love this book!
Easy and light, enjoyable and witty.
Narrator is great.
Story line has average moments.
But it is a cost mystery, coffee, bed and fire going...
Perfect!

Cant for the next one, come on audible.

Cute

This is what I call a "cutesy" type of supernatural story. Not too serious, lots of daily living type of conversations, some action, not a lot, but good strong core values including family values. Good narrator, like the accident, works for these characters.

Another good one

I have been working my way through Bella Falls books and they have ALL been gems. I am on to the next now!

Amazing book

Love the accent the mystery of the book and the writing I real hope the romantic sticks and they don’t fall apart they are amazing partners together

The accent got on my nerves

I was intrigued when I saw that this was based in NC, as that’s where I live. The story was pretty decent actually and I enjoyed the story but the accents the narrator used were unnecessary and annoying. It was almost bad enough that I wasn’t going to listen past the first chapter but then I got hooked. This is not a North Carolina accent at all, more of a Deep South, Louisiana accent. I would have rather it been read with no accent by far.

Not into it

Just couldn’t get into it. Reasonable story elements, but nothing caught and held my attention.

Witches

reminded me a lot of the sookie sackhouse stories. definitely some differences between the two. interesting and a bit comical at times read or listen for yourself and I hope you enjoy it.
