This is book one of the Enchantingly Yours series and sees Stella Spinney get together with her three best friends and fellow rich witches, Fiona, Raven and Poppy. They have known each other for some time and used to live together, until they burnt the apartment down. Now Stella wants their help to find out how Mabel Marwood stole the Spinney family mansion from her great grandmother and her family. She saw an advert for a new reality dating show, which has the handsome and old money rich guy Chadwick Crawford, as the man looking for his perfect woman and raising money for his animal sanctuary at the same time. The contestants for The Catch of a Lifetime will spend four weeks in the Marwood Manor in Worthington, where they all live. The very manor that was stolen from Stella’s family all those years ago under some very questionable means. This would be the only chance Stella would have of trying to find out the truth about what happened with her family home and also to find the jewellery missing from that time, that should have been passed down in the family, but all disappeared at the same time.

They all agree to help and have to audition for a spot on the show, which is looking for high class and intelligent women. The more of them that manage to get through to the show, the better chances of Stella finding out what really happened, as they won’t be able to use their magic to help them, as the manor has been warded against any other witches magic! Stella had heard tales from her grandmother about how the Spinney Mansion was lost, but her grandmother was only a child when her own mother died, so she didn’t know a lot about what had happened back then. Stella is a bit fed up of constantly trying to find get rich schemes, not wanting to have to ask her parents for money all the time, as she has no proper job, having relied on her magic for whatever she wants, all her life. Getting a real job is rather difficult for someone who hasn’t lived as a normal mundane person, with no work experience or work history to show a new employer. Now she will have a month of not using her magic.

She and her three friends will spend all their time in the manor, apart from three days back in their own homes, when Chadwick will take one of the women on a series of dates, before returning to the manor. Progress is somewhat slow and there are additional distractions to the dating game. Whether what they find will bring happiness to Stella or bring her heartache on finding out the true history of her family and the skeletons left behind, you will have to find out for yourself. There is a bit of fun and games with some of the other contestants, one being a bit full of herself, one who seems to be attracted to one of the female staff rather than the man they are all to date, and another who is playing dirty! Stella may soon regret asking her closest friends to join her on this reality dating show, as secrets begin to be revealed and danger seems to follow. An amusing read, with a group of witches trying not to use their magic whilst on a TV reality dating show.

I have been provided with a review copy of When Witches Come True from the author via Booksprout for an impartial review. This book was previously titled A Get Witch Quick Scheme the first book in the Bewitching the Rich Guy series and has since been changed to a new name and series. It is now titled When Witches Come True and it is the first book in the Enchantingly Yours Season 1. The main story has stayed the same with just a few changes to names and some of the places. This was just a fantastic way to start off a new series. I was immediately drawn into this world with this amazing storyline and it’s amazing characters. I just had so much fun reading this story and I just couldn’t help but fall in love with all of the characters. I was just so sad to turn the last page. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Our heroine is used to the good life, so when she sees the opportunity to get back the mansion she felt belonged in her family, she had to take the chance.

This is a cozy witch mystery with a touch of romance. The story is well written and easy to read and filled with many of the standard tropes of the genre. We get a large and diverse cast of characters with some very intriguing quirks. The plot may seem straightforward, but it is immediately complicated by the large cast and many other elements all of which add quite a bit of humor to the mix. Overall, the story is highly entertaining and I am definitely looking forward to more in the series.

Highly recommended

This book was so much fun. It’s sweet and silly with suspense and spell craft. The series centers around a group of four friends, with each book focusing on one of the friends as the leading lady of the story. We start with Stella who has the grand plan to infiltrate a reality TV dating show in order to learn how her ancestor was swindled out of the family manor. When bodies start turning up and the family secrets come unravelled will she survive to get to the bottom of the mystery? And will she be able to resist the handsome bachelor that’s caught her eye?

Four witch friends go on a dating show to figure out how the mansion was stolen from one of their families. This storyline follows Stella and we see it all through her side of the mystery. Loved the banter and sass as they try to figure things out. The characters and storyline were terrific. Can not wait to read the next in the series.

What happens when a witch who cannot use her powers? Hilarity and mayhem will be the order as four witches try to unearth a secret from the past without the use of their powers.

It’s a charming read that combines a little romance with mystery as we experience four different views in each storyline.
