The Witches of Salix Pointe

De: Noelle Vella

Narrado por: Hazel Addison, Hollace Williams

Nestled between Little St. Simons Island and Jekyll Island, Salix Pointe is not a place that many people know of. As a part of the Golden Isles of Georgia, it’s never mentioned because of all the weeping willows that grow there. The surrounding town’s folk call it the Island of Death.

Elisa Hunte never let the old suspicions bother her. Yeah, there had been some strange things that had happened in the town like floating objects and people disappearing in the night, but that happened everywhere, didn’t it? Even though every night, she dreamed of the same faceless man who did things to her body that were carnal sins, she knew most of the talk about Salix Pointe was just old folklore. Elisa also knew that she was different. She seemed to sense things before they happened. That was just good ole instinct, right?

Tasmin Pettiford was a city girl through and through. She hated the country, particularly Salix Pointe. If it wasn’t for the fact that her favorite aunt had recently passed away and willed her bookstore to her, Tasmin would have never returned to the island that disturbed her on so many levels. There were stories of townspeople practicing magic regularly, others seeming to vanish without a trace, and the bookstore seemed to be the epicenter of all things weird and unusual. Tasmin couldn’t offload the property fast enough. The sooner it was sold, the sooner she'd be back in New York, away from the mosquitoes, the bookstore, and the eeriness of a town that caused many a nightmare during her childhood. Or could it really be that simple?

Not to mention, Elisa couldn’t explain why her body reacted the way it did to the town’s brooding vet, Dafari Battle. And when his even sexier brother Octavian Jerrod stepped into town, dragging otherworldly trouble along, Salix Pointe would never be the same. Elisa and Tasmin may not want to put too much stock into the folklore of Salix Pointe, but there is a reason that the universe has brought the two women together.

The incubus in the story says, “Be careful what you wish for.”

The characters were very relatable - educated city girl with southern roots, small town girl who stayed to run a business, dark sexy guy with secrets, dangerous family mystery, grandma’s weird remedies and everyone knowing everyone else’s business - except you.

I loved the narrators and different personalities, and the story arc was a lot more than witches, with the promise of so much more to be learned.

I am about to read the 2nd book as there was a bit of a cliffhanger. I’m told it will be on Audible soon but I can’t wait so probably will just read it first.

I really hope it becomes a long series because with the different supernatural groups, families and historical intertwining, it’s got enormous potential!

I am a big fan of fantasy, sci-fi, mythology and historical fiction. Noelle Vella have weaved a uniquely American tale with all those elements in spades, with tumultuous romance and steamy dreams-turned-reality.

Loving It!

Amazing listen loved the characters, a very fresh taken on paranormal romance. Extremely funny and a must listen.

Great read

It draw me in the whole time. Can’t wait for another part of this good read.

Amazing and magical

I really enjoyed this book. I hope there will be a sequel because I feel like there is more story to be told.

I loved the book

The story line was good and the narrators were great. This is a great read.

Captivating

I highly recommend getting the Audible for this book. The male narrator's voice is perfection. When he does his British accent he reminds me of Lucifer from Netflix's Lucifer. Loved the story too. I listened to it within two days but you could do it in one because its that good.

Excellent Narration

How awesome would it be if all the books I've listened to had narration at such a high caliber? The story was unique. First book out of last 50 or so books I've listened to where I can honestly say I liked the main character. She didn't start off smart, then end up being a sex slave to an alpha male who likes to spank grown women. She wasn't self depricating about her age or weight. There's no 15 minute inner monologs with her wondering if he likes her or not . Refreshing. Wanna say something better than refreshing, but don't have the words. This is a strong start to what hopefully becomes a long, epic series.

Enjoyable experience

Both the author and narrators are new to me and both did a great job in the area of storytelling.

I enjoyed the storyline along with the cast of characters and their unique personalities. I'm always intrigued with the world of witches, angels, and demons facing off with good and evil. The author kept my attention. I look forward to reading the next book.

Love this new series

I enjoyed the beginning of what seems an epic adventure. It is a great story with rich history and fun moments as well. The main characters are very different but more like sisters and the brothers that adore them make this book even more action packed. Looking forward to the next book.

Wow!! Awesome from beginning to end!!

First off…the narration was awesome!!! This book was so well written, and just flowed from beginning to end. The story line was amazing! I can’t wait to start the next book in the series.
