Interrupted Magic

Hillendale #4

by Karla Brandenburg

A stranger comes to Brynn Taylor looking to overcome a streak of bad luck, but when Brynn agrees to help, the hex transfers from the stranger to Brynn’s fiancé, Kyle Jakes. Kyle has been having his own run of bad luck after losing his job with the Hillendale Police Department. He’s postponed the wedding, taken a “filler” job out of town, and with this new development, Brynn sees how much their relationship has eroded. Her business is suffering, and once the town gossips get hold of the information she and Kyle—the town’s golden boy—have broken up, she’ll likely have to close her doors permanently. She vows to redirect the hex that transferred to Kyle back to its rightful owner. After an encounter with a man at a grocery store, her gift for alchemy has gone on the fritz. Has the spell that transferred to Kyle stripped her of her talents? Or is the man from the grocery store responsible for her interrupted magic?

How is she supposed to send the hex back to its rightful owner when her magic isn’t working?

Outstanding! I’m finally caught up with the Hillendale Book series so far and can’t say enough great things about this Author. I loved the town of Hillendale with all of it’s small town quirks and gossips and how Brynn adapted to her home she purchased from Aunt Nora, to fit in and continue her Aunt’s legacy or did she? Then Interrupted Magic? If you read the previous Hillendale Books, Interrupted Magic drew me to one conclusion. No, I can’t tell you, you really have to read these books to see how beautifully, the Author has continued with Brynn’s life and her adventures with all of the Bumps along the way. Here is the book Order again in the Hillendale Series. Book #1: Family Alchemy; Book #2: Unintended Consequences; Book #3: The Hidden Grimoire; Book #4: Interrupted Magic. Maybe I can get some housework done now, while I wait for Book #5 😉! Thank you so much Karla, for the intrigue and suspense that were in every page I turned and read!!!!!

Between Brynn’s magic and Kyle’s new construction job, or as he says his temporary job, this pair finds they have no together time. To make matters worse, when Brynn tries to help someone, her magic goes awry.

Hillendale, the town where Brynn lives, works, and loves feels less like a friendly place. Troubles keep coming her way and her magic becomes…interrupted. Can Brynn fix her life before its too late?

“Sometimes you just know” is a line from the story, but it applies to this series. I have so enjoyed Brynn’s journey through family, magic, and love.

A wonderful paranormal series with heartfelt emotion and the best kind of personal chemistry!

Interrupted Magic

Definitely my favorite. I really didn’t know Ian was a good guy until the end. I had felt annoyance with Kyle in all three books, though. Characters were well drawn.
