For when the sun shines on her cheeks, she glows.
Two witches, two secrets, and a curse that could tear a family apart.
Olivia and Ellie have lived their lives knowing a dark entity is stalking their family, determined to kill them all. After the death of Olivia’s son, she abandons her magic and her family, leaving Ellie in a nightmare of heartbreak, her marriage crumbling and her sister gone. Determined to save their mother Arianna from a spell that left her comatose, the two sisters must come together to unravel the riddle of the curse that has haunted their family for generations.
But as they delve into the past, the truth they uncover is more twisted and treacherous than they ever could have imagined. Will they be able to break the curse, or will it consume them all?
My Review:
This wasn’t about witchcraft. It was about fear. Fear of reconciliation between a family and extended family. Fear of the past and how it interconnects the future. It was about a family fueled by hurt so much that they needed the last thing they’d think of to rid themselves of the pain cursed upon their family by fear. It also about healing; healing between two sisters so connected to each other it goes back into their past lives. A mother and wife needing to understand her own pain to be able to heal for her marriage and to connect with her family again.
