Cat To The Chase
A caravan of trucks hauling building materials up a mountain road is nothing out of the ordinary, but in the Town of Green, it’s news. Gwen Paris has that feeling again that something is up . . . but what?
Gwen Paris is hanging out at Gunderson’s vintage coffee shop, more to see the fetching owner Kevin Pearson than for the caffeine, when all conversation turns to trucks climbing Perryville Foothills to the only address worth noting there: Brightston Mansion.
Just as Gwen is about to ask who? what? A name is uttered: Derek Payne.
Will her valiant Kevin and dear friends and family be able to save her? Or will Gwen succumb to a dimension she cannot escape?

I should have looked at the name of the author before I bought and began reading this book. Why? Because the one previous book by this author did not thrill me I had to force myself to finish it. I thought with a witch and a cat on the cover, it might be a good book.
Now it WAS well written! I will give the author that. But the characters? They weren't so well constructed. Gwen was scatterbrained and nieve and rather oblivious to what was in front of her face. Her Grandma is easily manipulated and shows little or no wisdom, the man Gwen believes she loves, Kevin, is a vampire who does nothing vampirish and is, in fact, a bit of a tool. Then there's the "bad guy" Derek who falls for Gwen! He is manipulative and very underhanded! At first, I thought he was an elf, then I thought he might be another vampire, and finally, the reader finds out he's a Warlock!
All the 4 main characters above are manipulated by Derek for Derek's end and pleasure. He stalks Gwen and makes her see and believe what HE wants her to believe. It's creepy and not in a fun, Halloween way either. Once Gwen finds up what Derek is up to instead of finding ways to combat Derek (she is, after all, supposed to be a witch) she yells at him, he laughs, she gets mad, and walks away!
And cats? There are two cats whose names I can't remember. One is Grandma's favorite and the other begins talking to Gwen...sort of. Derek hates cats and calls them "rodents".
The worse was the ending as the author just drops it. There is no resolution, no follow-up, nothing. The book just ENDS!
All in all, while the plot might be good under a different writer the ending of the book was bad enough that I will not read or buy another book by this author. :(

Not bad, but there are huge gaps in the story that are not really explained
