Pleasantwick Falling
The exciting sequel to Pleasantwick...
Two months ago, Melinda wouldn’t have believed witches were real.
Two days ago, she was preparing to start her senior year.
Two minutes ago, her entire life changed.
After the battle with the dark witches, Melinda barely escaped with her life. Now she’s back in Pleasantwick, her true identity has been revealed, and she feels like a lost girl without a home.
Luke isn’t doing much better. Recent events have left him numb, and the empath is afraid to let himself truly feel again. He may break Melinda’s heart if he can’t win the fight in his head.
While emotions run high as Luke and Melinda deal with their inner demons, they have to remember there is something much bigger at stake. The war may be over, but the magical balance has yet to be restored and if it doesn’t happen soon, this could be the end of Pleasantwick as they know it.
With the people of Pleasantwick looking to Melinda, she must make a choice ... accept her destiny and the responsibility that comes with it, or return to her normal life, putting the danger behind her at the cost of saying goodbye to Luke forever.
But will she get to make a choice … or will the dark witches make it for her in one final battle?

Pleasantwick Falling is the end of Melinda and Luke's story of love, fighting and magic.
In the magic city, Melinda discovers the truth about herself and Luke's family becomes an important part of her life.
She is now conscious of new and frightening responsibilities, but she embraces the challenge with a brave heart and a focused mind.
Melinda starts to adapt to her new reality and position among the people in the city as threatening events pile up.
The most disturbing is the way her relationship with Luke seems broken.
Melinda fights against her enemies, an evil brother and the instability in her love life.
Pleasantwick Falling sees the awakening of Melinda's powers and amazing she is.
The story ends with lots of hope and happiness.
Just what the doctor prescribed me.
Beautiful.

I ended this book the same way I started it. . . with a smile. I love Luke and Melinda and their supporting cast. Adam and Luke were the perfect brothers. The story and intrigue keep you speeding thru the pages but the fun and twist make you slow down and enjoy each word. The author has created a beautiful world with many stories to tell and it is a joy to be apart of all of it, the good and the bad. With powers and love all of it can some how work out fine.
Great story, well written this is going to be an author I continue to follow.

As Melinda and Luke's story continues, it seems there is more to Melinda's story than meets the eye. This is a fantastic story about an incredible place and whether or not it will survive. Melinda may be the key. I would love to read more stories from Pleasantwick (hint, hint).

I Love these books enough to purchase hard copies!
These are fantastic reads. Spellbinding, an unusual story with great character development. Both books are amazing reads. Make Sure To Set Aside Time To Read Them Consecutively. You won't want to put them down!

A page turner from the get go! I loved every word, every twist and turn. Would love it if somewhere down the road
M.L. Stoughton would write a third story of Melinda, Luke and Pleasantwick.
