The Witches of Arroyo Chronicles
The Circle Broken
As the second book in "The Witches of Arroyo" series, the story begins on the night of Gabriella's disappearance.
Grace's visions, once held in check, are now manifesting in physical and dangerous ways. She travels back in time to the Seville home of her grandmother Levinia, a powerful witch whose brazen use of a forbidden spell invited death into that household. She journeys through a portal to witness the battle between our heroine from The First Circle, Gabriella, and the demonic Salazar, and catches a glimmer of hope that Gabriella has survived! Yet she also meets Malinalli—a cunning and resourceful sorceress who possesses the power to unleash hell on earth.
In The Circle Broken, we return to Arroyo to find Grace, her secretive brother Gabriel, and their headstrong sister Salome, searching for a way to retrieve Gabriella from limbo. Ancient magic, and help from unexpected allies, strengthen and sustain this formidable coven, but deceptions and secrets may destroy their unity. As suspicions grow and relationships splinter, they find they're faced with not one, but two a ruthless witch bent on revenge, and Grace herself, whose unwieldy powers are driving her to madness, endangering the lives of those around her.
