When elderly witch Enid Pettywood unwittingly summons a demon to Silver Hollow, it’s up to Issy Quinn and her cousins to send it back before the committee finds out. Summoning a demon is a serious offense and no one wants to see Enid suffer the punishment the committee is sure to hand down.But a simple plan of vanquishing the pesky demon before anyone notices goes awry when the demon makes the … makes the leap from wreaking havoc with the town’s electrical circuits to possessing a human. Even worse, it uses that human to commit murder. When another murder attempt is made, it quickly becomes clear that the demon is looking for a permanent human host… and the Quinn witches have only three days to stop it.
With the town Sheriff investigating the murder, Issy has to avoid casting suspicion on herself while trying to track down the demon and dodge Dex Nolan, the government agent sent to town to study paranormals. Too bad Issy can’t seem to forget the stolen kiss she and Dex shared because she has no intention of getting involved with a human.
When the demon’s evil intentions hit too close to home, Issy is forced to make a sacrifice that may haunt her for the rest of her days. Will she be able to stop the demon before it kills again?

I downloaded this one for free from one of those sites that emails you books. I belong to 3, so I do not recall which one.
Spell Disaster is 2nd of the series. I did not know this when I began reading. It was not really a problem because the author had her characters refer to the previous incident – sometimes too much. I almost do not have to read Book 1 now as I know the outcome. I find that a bit irritating. As far as #2, I found the characters minimally interesting and the author’s portrayal of familiars interesting.
This story is based on the typical small town where there are paranormals (witches and werewolf) living their secret lives amongst oblivious humans. I am mildly interested in Book 3 because I enjoy the familiars..
Leighann Dobbs is always entertaining, but her stories can be predictable (cozy east coast village with group of interesting people on a quest to solve a mystery, little bit of romance), and it would help if the books were run through an extra proofreading/copy editing session. I do appreciate the variety of her characters.
This is a cute book. it just wasn’t for me, so I can’t give a fair review. I have read many wonderful books by this author.
Really like Leith Ann Dobbs. Entertaining uncomplicated reading.
Ms. Dobbs is a great writer. Enjoyable books
Leighann Dobbs does it again with this terrific Silver Hollow series. Fun characters and curly plot.
I have become a fast fan of this series. The characters are clever and smart. The familiars are quick and precious. Delightful series. Have them all in my library
Love this author, she has a great way with words.
Absolutely love to read Leighann Dobbs, every book she writes keeps you entertained.
Loved the elderly witch – a little dark but entertaining.
Nice, quirky cosy mystery. 2nd in a series that is easy reading.
The book is enjoyable. There were several typos and common misspellings such as ‘quite’ for ‘quiet’.
Great book!
Okay book. Mystery was way too obvious, and painful to see the characters be so stupid as to not see the answer.
Maybe even too easy to read, but better than no book!
this had the potential to be funny and witty, but it just comes across as silly. seriously sage to banish a demon?
