New England Witch Chronicles #3
Wicked Betrayal
The clock is ticking. Alex’s time is running out.
Spring has hit Hazel Cove and with it, the pressure of Alex’s impending fate as Liam’s sacrifice is weighing upon her every thought. There’s so much to do and so little time. How do you stop an ancient pure blooded witch?
But Liam isn’t Alex’s only problem. She must focus on what she can fix in the little time she has left. She must confront the past and the horrible betrayal Ethan suffered at the hands of a once trusted ally. Alex will do anything necessary to save Ethan. Even brave a trip to the supernatural capital of the world - New Orleans.
Voodoo, Hoodoo, witches and spirits are nothing compared to the evil Alex will face in the backwoods of the Louisiana bayou. Will Alex’s desperation to save her family and friends pull her closer to the darkness?
Who can Alex trust? Will James’ connections as a witch hunter help or hurt her? Can she fix her relationship with Peter? Or will the deep seeds of betrayal shatter Alex’s life?
Wicked Betrayal is the third book in the New England Witch Chronicles series. The final novel in the series, All Hallows Eve, will be released in 2013. For more information, please visit: www.chelseabellingeri.com

Okay. I've never been wrong about who is "meant to be together" (I was right about Edward, Peeta, Daniel & many, many more). But I feel that with this series, I might be wrong. I am 100% Team James. The whole witch with the witch hunter is appealing to me & I love it. I really hope I'm not wrong and they do end up together. Because if not my perfect record will be ruined & I'll probably die of sadness.

I could not put this series down!!! I was literally at the gym when I finished the second one and I sat there on the treadmill buying the 3rd so I could start it while I finished my workout.
By the end of each book you can't help but to have to read the next to find out what is going to happen. I am impatiently awaiting the 4th installment. It took me 2 weeks to weeks to read all 3.
You love the main character's. Alex is Strong and even though she has so much to deal with she still keeps going and fighting doing what she has to to protect her family and friends. Peter, her best friend turned boyfriend, is just the right mix of stability,protectiveness, and is sweet and caring. In a way he grounds her. While James is a bit more dangerous, very protective, and is constantly butting heads with Peter to win Alex's affections. Liam is someone who you want to hate but still for some reason can't. He always helps Alex out but in the end with his own ultimate agenda in place. Both Peter and James team up together in this book to help Alex and it is quite interesting to see how it goes between them. You think one minute they are becoming friends and then the next they are back to being enemies. It keeps you guessing.
With each new character introduced into each book you fall more in love with them. Each charater is brought in perfectly and at the right times and just makes everything more complete and entertaining. As the Alex grows and evolutions the plots and rest of the characters do the same.

I read the first two books in this series and waited for the third one to come out. It was not a disappointment. It was just as intriging as the first two.
The story picks up where the second one left off. It gose more into Alex's family and why Liam wants to kill her. The books is a fast read and it will keep your interest just like the other two did. It took me only a couple of days to read this book.
The next one should be out in Spring of 2013. I can't wait until the final installment of this series is available to read.

Couldn't put it down!
This is the third, in a series of four books. I didn't review the first one, because I didn't know how. I didn't review the second because I was in too much of a hurry to start the third. My reviews would have all been similar anyway. I'm really enjoying this series! I wanted a good, witchy book, and I found it here! No dull moments in these books. They kept me wanting to know what was going to happen next, which made them hard to put down. To me, that's the sign of a good book. I did learn though, that this author likes a serious cliffhanger. I recommend reading the series, just know that it's a commitment to four books, not just one. But that's a bonus, finding a good series is a great thing. I'm really enjoying these, they're fun. I'm moving on to the fourth one right now.

I have been waiting for this book, and it was so worth the wait! All of these books in this series are just Amazing, they all flow from one to the next..This is just such an exiciting story, such a page turner. It keeps you on the edge of your seat, holding your breath. I love the characters are just fantastic, all of them.This has got to be one of the best YA series out there. I can't tell you how much I want to read the last one All Hallows Eve! So please hurry and write it Chelsea Bellingeri!
October 21, 2014
Well she did it again! This was SO good..I Loved it..Bellingeri picks up right where she left off, So much happens in this book... A lot of questions are answered. It is so well writen. Bellingeri is my new favorite Author. I am so looking forward to the last book in this series. Then for much more from Bellingeri. I am a true follower..LOL This is my all time fav YA book.
November 28, 2012
She has done it again! Chelsea Bellingeri has just made me a very happy camper! I have been waiting for this book after reading the 1st two in the series, and this was just amazing! She answered so many questions and so much is happening in this story,the characters are wonderful and the banter is perfect.. You think you have it all figured out... but you don't! Its really a captivating book. I cannot wait for book 4! Please hurry!

After completing the first two titles of this series, I was eager to get to the next entry. And just as I found in the second title, this third story roars through to its conclusion only to leave the big picture still unseen. Now, I'm hesitant to start the final episode because I'll have difficulty finding another well written, suspenseful and solid collection to follow. I confess that Ms. Bellingeri has spoiled me. If, like me, you enjoy a totally believable story with some strange paranormal undertones, then treat yourself to this modern and yet very old witchy tale.

This was just AMAZING! Loved, Loved, Loved it..I had been waiting for this 3rd book.. I loved the other 2 in this series! This is by far my favorite YA/PARANORMAL Series EVER..I just Love Alex, Peter & James.Bellingeri just keeps weaving such a great story it keeps you on the edge of your seat. Cannot wait for book 4 All Hallows Eve!

This was SO worth the wait! Such a fantastic story. This has got to be the best YA/Paranormal book ever. So much happens in this one. These characters are just so well written, the whole story is so unique. I can not wait for the last book. I am such a fan of Chelsea Bellingeri.

this book was a little shorter than the previous two but she packed it full. great read and you can't help but keep rooting for the Ross family to come out ahead. Liam has his good side and you can't wait to see what happens in the next book. enjoy

I'm still amazed that this series started out great and keeps getting better. I'm not sure that a lot of authors can pull this off, but Bellingeri sure does. I can't wait to see how things wrap up.

I have enjoyed Alex's twitchy escapades since I read the first novel this series. The author does a wonderful job off bringing this series to life.

This book is the best in the four book series. While books 1 & 2 seemed written for young adults I.e. teenagers, book 3 takes a more sinister & sophisticated approach. Book 4 better then books 1 & 2, but not quite as unpredictable as book 3.
April 22, 2013
Ahhh thank goodness I only have to wait a week for number 4!!!
