Editorial Reviews

"It may be the beautiful cover that convinces you to pick up this book, but it’s the wonderful writing and the page-turning plot that will keep you reading! MAGIC REMEMBERED is an urban fantasy about a 41-year-old witch, Calliope Jones, who needs to find her inner priestess and learn to harness her magic for the sake of her home island, her family, and her friends."

"There is much richness here for readers, and this is the type of book that will meet readers where they're at and give them what they're looking for, whether it's magic, romance, or a galvanizing story of a woman staking claim to her power."

"Set on Salt Spring Island in the Pacific Northwest, Magic Remembered’s lush descriptions reminded me of the fabulous world-building of Deborah Harkness. The family dynamics—so realistic but with magic, too—were reminiscent of Alice Hoffman’s Practical Magic."

"Magic Remembered is an urban fantasy with a side of slow burn, seasoned romance… it’s refreshing to read a book where the main characters aren’t fresh-faced early twenty-somethings. It’s also a joy to have an MC with real life—and really relatable—life experiences. Even in an urban fantasy. Calliope Jones—our main protagonist in a first-person, single-POV narrative—is facing down menopause, nearly-full-grown sons, a somewhat-recent divorce, and a blossoming desire to not only embrace her sexuality but also to discover the magic her ex-husband forced her to hide for most of her life. Yet despite all that, she’s wonderfully down-to-earth and, while her desire aims toward a certain druid with some intriguing issues of his own, she remains a strong, solid, and independent woman. There’s no “damsel in distress” or “let love be the answer to all your problems” tropes here. Ms. Jones is her own person and, for better or worse, she will fix her own problems."
