I really don't know what it is about these books but I feel compelled to read them. Don't get me wrong I am not YA at all but in my forties and my tastes vary a lot. This series is so entertaining, a light fun read with a touch of romance and no swearing, extreme violence or sex scenes. It takes me back to a time of innocence growing up where I was reading books purely on their ability to keep me turning the pages. Syd is a great character with three individual personalities and power in one body, the witch, the demon and the Sidhe princess. She defends her family from the evil that tries to take over their coven. Quaid is back at her side and now her mother has been arrested and is on trial for blood magic. Syd has to step up and take the reins whilst scrambling to form a defence to save her mother. Not known for her tact and planning, Syd must do it right this time as her mother's life is at stake. The evil Batsheva is back, gotta love that name and she is now head of the Witch Council determined to gain control and kill Miriam. Syd has to work together with her grandmother before its too late and enlist the help of the vampires and werewolves to prove her mother's innocence. Celeste is still a thorn in their side and Odette is in the background waiting to seek revenge against the Hayle Coven. What will it take to save the day and does Syd have it in her to prove to the Coven and everyone else that she is worthy of leading the coven.
