It’s two days until Halloween in Haven Hollow and Astrid is feeling the holiday blues.
After being kicked out of her coven, the young witch is missing the holiday festivities she’s grown up with, and she’s also upset about a boy. Not to mention she’s perplexed over the subject of what she should gift to Wanda for the most important night of the witching calendar (known as ‘Samhain’).
When Astrid’s ne’er-do-well brother, Maverick, reaches out, Astrid is over the moon to hear from him. Because Maverick is disallowed entrance into Haven Hollow (Wanda banished him after a witchly duel), Astrid agrees to meet him in the neighboring town of Riverport, where they plan to celebrate the season by harvesting apples for the Autumn Fae.
Reunited with her prickly brother, Astrid admits she has no idea what to gift Wanda for Samhain and Maverick suggests his newest concoction, Regression Oil—a potion which brings to light someone’s past lives.
Astrid, excited by the promise of the potion, eagerly agrees to assist Maverick in the creation of the Regression Oil, all the while wondering what lifetimes will reveal themselves before Wanda’s eyes.
During a meeting of the Black Cat Cocktail Club, Astrid spikes Wanda’s drink with the Regression Oil, waits until the clock strikes midnight and activates the potion with a spell.
And that’s when everything goes to hell in a Prada handbag…
All Hallow's Eve: A Paranormal Women's Fiction Novella: (Remarkable Remedies) by J.R. RainMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
All Hallow’s Eve is book 10 in the Haven Hallow series by HP Mallory. This quick novella is told from the POV of Astrid. We get to see Astrid close-up and learn more about her. Halloween is coming up soon and Astrid is lonely. She was kicked out of the same coven as Wanda, so Samhain festivities aren’t the same. When her banished brother Maverick calls her up, she’s happy to hear from him. They meet outside of Haven Hollow and Astrid discusses possible Samhain gifts for Wanda with Maverick. He suggests his newest potion to allow Wanda to view her past lives. Astrid prepares the concoction and spikes Wanda’s drink, then all hell breaks loose.
All Hallow’s Eve is a wonderful book in the Haven Hollow series by H.P. Mallory and J.R. Rain. I love visiting Haven Hallow and really enjoyed this adventure. This writing duo brings interesting stories, intriguing characters, and thought-provoking mysteries to life. The character development provides history and growth, and the world-building creates a fantastic world to watch the characters do their thing.
