Crypt Witch #12
Jinxing of the Witch
Find a killer. Keep control of her demon. And stop her boyfriend's revenge ambitions. If Tempest Crypt can’t fix this mess, Willow Tree Falls will change forever.
Tempest just wants to avoid the stress of her sister’s wedding, and enjoy seeing her biker boyfriend win the upcoming motorbike races.
But a vicious killer has other plans. Ian Blaine, a member of the Willow Tree Falls gang, is discovered dead in the woods.
What seems like a straightforward case of gang rivalry spirals as more suspects show up.
As Tempest hunts for clues, questions people, and keeps her boyfriend from seeking revenge, her demon causes trouble, putting everyone at risk – especially her sister, Aurora.
If she fails to solve these problems, Rhett could go to jail, and her sister's life will be in peril.
Throw in wedding high jinx (of the magical kind,) a family secret, and a cake-obsessed hellhound, and this is one fun paranormal mystery you won’t want to miss.

Great New Read
I totally loved this newest book of the Crypt Witch and series! The characters are some of my favorites, with all the things they get up to. This time there's the crazy antics of a bride-to-be combined with a motorcycle gang murder. Great plot twists and turns keep your attention from beginning to end. I can definitely recommend it to anyone who loves a good mystery.

Great series that's never boring
This series is one of my favorites in the paranormal mystery genre. The books are all different with different types of mysteries that have characters that change and grow. I like that the series is set around a witch that's not perfect and literally has a demon. I love that Aurora is finally finding her happily ever after. The book has several great life lessons to teach as well. Another Winner!

Tempest deserves better!
I am thoroughly enjoying these characters; I just wish that Tempest had more than Wiggles (amazing as he is!) for total "got-your-back" support. As important as seeking justice is to Tempest, it still almost gets overshadowed by bridezilla Aurora, loyalty-challenged Rhett, and fallout from her dad's return. Looks like things are going to get very complicated for this plucky heroine...and I can't wait!

Review
Just finished reading the whole series.The characters are great.The stories were awesome.I hope there will be more stories in this series.Would like to see if Rhett & Tempest work it out & if she can get rid of Frank.Sometimes when you bring him out in the story it takes away from the story.Still have to figure out what happened to Artie & what will happen with Zandra.

Loved it!
The stuff happening to Aurora was insanely crazy! It’s stressful enough planning a wedding, but wow, someone was really hitting her with jinx spells!
Tempest was just run ragged between weddings stuff, murder investigation and Rhett. It’ll be interesting to see how that turns out.

Good mystery with humor
I enjoy this series. It has good plotlines and humor. Tempest has a murder to solve. She has her sisters wedding, and help Aurora with the disasters which are occurring as the day gets closer. Wiggles is there to assist her and get treats.

Excellent
These cosy paranormal mysteries are such an interesting, entertaining and enjoyable read. It was nice to see a tougher, darker side to Aurora, and curious about the suddenly older half sister. Good storyline.

Jinking of the witch.
A good read, I did it. I guessed who it was. A thrilling book to read always something going on. Keeps you occupied through mincing the witch. I got it right .if I got it right such a shock. Book 13 only another 4 books to go.
