Witch's Brew by Tabitha Shay is an excellent read. I love how she puts historical facts from the Salem Witch Trials into the books and works the story around it.

This is a love story about a witch, Saylem, who doesn't know that she is a witch because a spell has been put on her. She comes to Sanctuary to find herself.

The male love intrest of the story, Talon, is a Waken. I would explain what a waken is but its better to have you read the story. Talon is a member of the royal family who is sent to assasinate Saylem because she is a "bungler of magic", but he ends up falling in love with her.

There are lots of twists and turns in this book that lead into the next few books in the series. There is lots of action and romance that leave you wanting more. I think that if you like witchs then this is the book for you!!!

I know I can't wait to read the next book in the series :)

Saylym Winslow has no doubt she is going crazy. She finds herself in the town of Sanctuary, it is like a whole different world, living next door to a woman who believes she is 20,000 years old and a witch to boot...

Tabitha Shay Book: “Witches Brew”


Once upon a time in the land of Witches, Wizards, and Wakens there was a Witch named Saylym Winslow. Now, ..Saylym thinks she is quite the average women with everyday problems right up until she moves to Sanctuary and learns different. You see, unknown to her, Saylym Winslow is a Witch, but she flat out refuses to accept it. Little does Saylym know how much of broom ride she is in for.

“Witches Brew” is an exciting read, full of twists and turns. I laughed, I cried, and then found myself cheering at points through this book. A must read for all Witch lovers like myself. Brilliant Job Tabitha!

Witch’s Brew is an enchanting read. I laughed and cried. There is powerful, back and forth conflict between the heroine, Saylym Winslow, a royal witch, who doesn’t believe in witches and thinks she’s an ordinary mortal, and the hero, Prince Talon a royal waken sent by the guild to steal Saylym’s soul. There are two villains, who are pure evil, and though they team up, they can’t even trust each other. And at the heart of the story is a surprising secret to Saylym’s identity that goes all the way back to the Salem witch trails. Witch’s Brew is a sweeping, magical adventure, I highly recommend.

Loved Loved Loved this book! When Saylym finds herself in a town called Sanctuary she doesn't realize what kind of town it is and what type of people live there. Witch's Brew is a delightful story of a witch who fumbles into many mishaps then falls in love with Talon a warlock who is charge of getting rid of Saylym. This is one book I could read several times over. It is also the first book in a series so check it out if you like witch's, warlocks and magical creatures!!

[Brenda Clark Thomas · Rating 4 out of 5]

I stopped reading the book after I got to the part about how the men and women magicals got separated. I did like the beginning of the book though.
