Lucky for them, when a person finds a piece, they are bestowed with strange abilities.

Pepper, Axle, and Grandma Betty have now chased the heart fire to Silver Springs, where they meet Dylan, Roman, and the rest of the nutty Apel family. The real enjoyment of this book is not the mystery, which is very obvious with no surprises; the entertainment is in the interactions between the two groups which focuses on Betty's and Hazel's tense history. Also, while Betty is generally exceedingly annoying, in this miniseries she displays a more appealing vulnerable aspect. I am eager for the final battle back in Magnolia Cove (and hopefully Mr. Jingles will be returned to female! 😉).

Another hilarious romp, this time with Dylan, Roman, Sera, Reid, Gramma Hazel, Gramma Milly, and Nan. The fights that went on between Hazel and Betty were fantastically done. I felt we didn't get to see too much of Roman here, and since it's been a while since I read the Bless Your Witch series, I couldn't really remember his personality. But with the sheer number of other characters who took centre stage, it was still a very fun and quick ride!

Loved it! It’s just the most awesome total crossover series I ever read! If you love Amy’s work, seeing all her series characters interact and being on a epic adventure together, it just amazing!
Well written! It’s funny and emotional, it’s full of suspense and some secrets are revealed... You’re going to enjoy this third book!

Book 3
Wedding venue crisis! Usurped by what? By Whom? Why? Lets the magic begin. Good third book in the series. Enjoying Amy Boyles Characters, flow and style of writing. It's great to read something that so entertaining and well done.
Trust me, have ever lied to you on purpose?

The Sirens
I didn't like this book as much as I liked the other two books. The story was interesting, but it seemed to be missing something.
I am glad that Sera and Brock got married, and that the Sirens left, but something still was not quite right.
I will recommend this book it is part of the series.

The sirens
In this book Pepper Betty and Axel have located the next piece of the heart. They meet Dylan and her gang from Amy Boyles Bless your witch series. I loved how Dylan didn't trust the sirens and how her grandmother solved the problem of the sirens and the vampires at the same time. This was an Amazing read.

I love getting to meet up up with characters that I haven’t seen in a while...like Dylan and Roman. I live this series just being all the favorite characters from all these amazing series together working together as one big magical family

Amy Boyles is Amazing
Amy’s stories are well thought out. A true mistress of her craft! I love reading the stories, and fell like I’m actually inside the circle of witches with them every step of the way!

Fantastical fun.
Yet another entertaining and enjoyable read. In this penultimate book of the mini crossovers series, we met Dylan at al.
In this story, they faced off with sirens, along with the ubiquitous evil vampire, Blake.
I highly recommend.

This is a great book by Amy Boyles. This is a crossover and I kept getting the two couples confused but it was a great story.

Wow another great book by Amy Boyle’s. Love the Pepper & Axel stories.

I am loving the crossovers. Wish more authors did this. It adds to the stories in ways that they wouldn't be able to do.
Love that Pepper and Dylan might be pregnant together ❤❤.

Love the Bless Your Witch and Sweet Tea Witches. The story line is good , the editing bad, the writing was rushed.

Sirens steal power
I enjoyed the grandmother's and their fight. I love the humerous scenes. The vampire, Blake, is a good/bad villain. Who knew that magic could be so funny?

It was ok
I liked this book well enough but not as much as the others in the series because I haven't read Dylan's books.

Another great installment. There's only one piece of the heart left. Who's going to find it?

Good book
Lots of characters to keep straight. It's like having two books going at the same time. If you pay attention you will be rewarded in the end.

Throw in a vampire and all hell breaks loose. But these witches are good and do what they can to resolve the issues.

Giving a generous 2 stars because the sirens bit is interesting.
Could not stand the ceossover characters in this one. I was skimming to get the main plot and considered giving up altogether.
