Welcome to Spellbound, where paranormal is the new normal. Life is good for Emma Hart. She’s married to the love of her life, raising an amazing daughter, surrounded by close friends, and working at a job that makes a difference. When some of her more cantankerous friends start exhibiting signs of sweetness and light against their normal natures, it seems that Emma’s influence has finally taken hold—except their behavior seems off in a way that Emma can’t quite identify. In the meantime, Spellbound receives a visit from Ember Rose, Starry Hollow’s intrepid reporter who’s in town with her daughter and raccoon familiar seeking information from an unlikely source about her ancestor, the One True Witch. Emma offers to help in any way she can, despite the growing tide of unease in connection with certain residents’ excessive virtue. Will Emma get to the bottom of the change before the whole town becomes a zombie horde of Stepford paranormals or will her voice of reason be drowned out by a tsunami of sweetness?

Ms Chase Does It Again.

The new book continues the trend of every one being even better than the awesome book they follow in the series! Since I discovered other authors in this genre thanks to Ms Chase, I truly appreciate how difficult it must be writing a series like this where characters and relationships deepen wonderfully over time and the mysteries always are effective. If you're a new reader, start this series at the beginning of its predecessor and then devour every other book by Ms Chase. If a returning reader, cast aside any doubts that Ms Chase has surpassed herself yet again and buy thebook!

Great series

This is another great series by Annabel Chase and this book was wonderful. Unfortunately I am unable to get my hands on all of the books in the series as they are not available in paperback format. I do not own a Kindle.

Can't wait for the next 1

These are always so much fun Sometimes you just need to read the doesn't require too much brain power and instead you can just sit back and enjoy

This particular story is a crossover event with Amber and her cousin from starry hollow another serious by the same author in the same world. Always entertaining and well worth reading. Check it out

Awesome Author, Awesome Storyline!

This author could write an ingredient list and I would want to read it! I love the Spellbound series, and am never disappointed. I would recommend the series, along with all of her other books to anyone who has even the slightest interest in paranormal romantic books. I am in no way an author, and I truly do admire ALL authors! I have one very minor "nit to pick", as the saying goes. I am, as my family complains, the grammar police, and as is typical of me, found grammatical and spelling issues that detracted a bit from my readiung experience. I apologize, and do not mean to suggest the book is anything but WONDERFUL!

Halo Effect

Halo Effect is Book 8 in the Spellbound Ever After Series. I LOVE this series. All the characters are fantastic and I love how there are so many different paranormal. Emma gets a visit from Ember and her raccoon familiar Raoul from Starry Hallow. This book was such a great crossover with characters from my two favorite series. I couldn't put this book down and there are some really wonderful laugh out loud moments. Cannot wait for more from this epic series!

Great Addition to the Series

Such a great addition to the series. Between caring for Diana, dealing with her friend and vanny, looking into the case against her client, and her classes, Emma has a lot on her plate so it would only be natural to ignore the oddness of some Spellbound residents. Luckily for those residents, Emma is a sorceress with an inquisitive nature and this time she has some help from Starry Hollow's reporter, Ember Rose.

Another great book

This book continues with Emma's busy life - new mom, lawyer, magic classes and saving the residents of the town. This time some residents are acting nicer than normal and Emma needs to get to the bottom of it before they go off the deep end. A crossover with Ember and Florian from Starry Hollow just adds to the fun. Can't wait to see what happens in the next book.

Emma, Baby, Court, Spells

I don’t want to give away anything because it’s a lot more fun to figure out the mystery without hints. Annabel Chase is of my favorite authors. I like the way Emma’s character has developed throughout the series. And we get a visit from Ember Rose (cross series moments) as well.

Another good read

I just finished Halo Effect and loved it. I always look forward to reading Ms. Chase's books. She has a wit about her in her writing that I like. I get caught up in her characters that I will catch myself laughing or crying or whatever emotion is called for at that moment in the book. Please keep it up!!

Interesting

Was fun to see some different personalities on some of our regular characters. The Tangi was an interesting critter. The small cross over turned out well (I haven't read but one Starry Hollow and this blended smoothly) though I do need to do so. Fun recommended read.

Flower trouble

What does a flower festival and an endangered species that farts rainbows have in common. Why Emma Hart for starters. Time to figure out why the Harpies and others are acting strange. Can Emma figure out how they are spelled and who is behind it and why. Great story.

Like farting rainbows

Will anything ever go smoothly in Spellbound? A flower power festival is held, fragrant and pretty. It is time to make a will, now that Daniel and Emma have a baby. Emma starts to notice personality changes in ask me if the women in town. Read and enjoy!

A story that never gets old

I love this series and always look forward to the new book when it comes out. Emma always seems to find herself involved in multiple mysteries and helping others. She also defends the townspeople in need and I find those side stories just as entertaining.

Delightful Crossover

Ember Rose and Florian visit Emma for a delightful crossover story. Emma struggles to defend an ogre while attempting to understand and eliminate a spell that has created major and disturbing personality reversals in several town characters.

My favorite series by Annabel Chase

This series has everything that makes a great cozy paranormal book; creative characters, well-thought-out mystery, and just enough humor. This book even has underlying life lesson. Spellbound is my go-to magical town I would visit if that was possible.

Still enjoyable

This series seems to be weakening and the plots are mediocre but the characters are still enjoyable.

Great story!

This is a really good book by a very talented writer. The storyline kept me on my toes. I can't wait for the next book by this author. She is a very good and original storyteller! You won't be disappointed at all.

Fun read

Great crossover book. Fun visiting the characters from both series. Good storyline. Enough mystery and magic and ends with questions to make me look forward to the next installments. Enjoy.

Another hit!

Love this author! While I don't really like the woman over the school, I think the new teacher is gonna be a good character! Loved seeing Ember and crew too! Great job, next...?

Mystery and Action

I like how the characters interact and support each other. The main character is evolving and growing. She always has a mystery to solve.i look forward to the next adventure.

I loved this book & I loved not having any dead bodies

I enjoy it when a book isn't about a dead body, I know those are fun to read to try & figure out what turn the author is going to take next. It's refreshing & I loved the ending.
