Prom night is supposed to be magical, it wasn’t the kind of magic Annamaria was ready for.
About Bondwitch: Eighteen-year-old Annamaria Lyons has never left her small hometown of
Harrison, Wyoming. She has lived with her aunt, Trinity, since her parents died
when she was two years old. Trinity has been a wonderful guardian with one
exception—she won’t allow Annamaria out of the house after sunset. That is,
until the night of senior prom. Annamaria’s long-lost sister arrives, bringing
with her a world full of hidden family secrets and the supernatural.
Forced to flee her childhood
home without a proper goodbye to her human life and first love, Annamaria
immerses herself in the magical world. New friends and a new suitor challenge
her original dreams for the future, and when she finds herself caught in the
middle of a centuries-old conflict, Annamaria must decide to rise above it or
give in to the darkness.
Our
Review: For any new
author, imagining a plot can be monumental. Putting it in a crisp,
understandable story arc is difficult. Keeping the length to a reasonable limit
is close to impossible. Author Ortega persevered in creating something that
shows a young woman’s journey to finding her true self, and her true heritage.
It is a story of family responsibility and devotion, how we triumph and how we
sometimes fail.
Based on a scale of 1-5, Bondwitch merits a 4.
