I showed up on his doorstep. At midnight. Missing 45 years’ worth of time.I’m Cassie Gearhart, and the last thing I remember, I cast a spell in 1974. Then, I woke up on a rainy July night to find it was 2019. And the entire Willow Creek Coven—my coven—was gone.Well, there is one witch left in Willow Creek, Virginia: Nick Felson, the grandson of my high priestess, a brooding farm boy with magic in … priestess, a brooding farm boy with magic in his blood and a chip on his shoulder.
Every time we get too close, love—the most powerful of magicks—draws us together. The passion? It threatens to be our undoing.
There’s a whole host of other problems, though. For one, Nick wants nothing to do with magic—and therefore, with me, a witch lost in time.
For another, the sinister magic that took the coven? It’s not finished with us.
It’s barely getting started.
Don’t miss the first book in the Tangled Magic Series, perfect for fans of the witchy magic of Charmed and for anyone seeking paranormal romance with a small-town setting!

Tangled Roots is the first novel in the Tangled Magic series.
From reading the synopsis, I knew I had to read it.
The last thing Cassie Gearhart remembers is casting a spell in 1974 before waking up in the year 2019. Her coven is gone and the only witch Willow Creek is Nick Felson who wants nothing to do with magic.
I really enjoyed this and could not put the book down. I wish it was longer but it only makes me wants the next novel on my kindle sooner.
Tangles Roots is the first book in this paranormal romance series that features witches, time travel and alot of other awesome elements. The authors writing style is good and I couldn’t put this one down. The characters pulled me in with their wittyness and I liked them alot. I am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future!
Happy Reading!
4 stars!
Fun paranormal read. I really enjoyed this book, the characters were easy to fall in love with and the story was interesting. There are many different connections between the different characters and the author introduced the connections seamlessly, everything flowed so nicely. I don’t know how I would feel if I were Cassie, living in 1974, then after being put under a spell wake up 45 years later. It is nice that she finds Nick and their connection is cemented and their relationship starts to bloom. The reason why Cassie shows up the year she does after being “asleep” for so many years is a nice twist to the story. It seems she is there to help Nick solve the reason why his Grandma and mother have gone, and then with the way his brother Evan played a role in everything, I was completely lost in the story. I can’t wait to see what happens next with these characters and their adventure.
Cassie and Nick. I enjoyed each part of thier stories and how they intertwined with each other. Cassie has been asleep for some time her only connection is an unwilling boy Nick. Time travels a bitch right.

Tangled Roots (Witches of Willow Creek: Tangled Magic Series Book 1) by Denise D. Young
Tangled Roots is the first book in the Witches of Willow Creek: Tangled Magic series by Denise D.Young. I truly enjoyed reading this fast paced Paranormal romance that one you start you won’t want to put it down till you finish. This is a story about Cassie who is a witch that’s running from her family. She casted a spell in 1974 and wakes forty-five years later and its 2019 and the spell is the last thing she remembers. Nick’s the only other witch in this small town and when these two get around each other there is definitely some passion there. Can they find the Coven? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.
I absolutely loved reading this novel. From beginning to end I felt as though I was part of the story being told. Denise D. Young has a magical talent when it comes to writing fantasy novels. The emotion that is written can be felt. I recommend this novel to anyone who likes to read.
Denise did a fantastic job getting this story started. I have always been a fan of stories about people out of time. Add in magic, a coven, and a story with ENORMOUS potential for growth?! I’m hooked. I read it so quickly I wanted to re-read it and get started on the rest as soon as possible. Cassie is a witch out of time with a story of her own to tell. Nick is running away from his magic, but cannot help the pull of Cassie and their interwoven destiny. I am so glad to have found this author! The mystery surrounding everything that has happened since Cassie was transported through time and what could potentially happen now that they are on the right track is gonna keep me addicted to Denise’s writing for as many books as she has to offer! Don’t pass up the chance to read this story and follow this author. I know I’m glad that I did.

Tangled Roots: Witches of Willow Creek is the first book in the Tangled Magic series by Denise D. Young. This is a great paranormal romance with a small town setting, time travel, witches, magic, danger, adventure, drama, agendas, and much more.
I have come into this series a bit backwards, having started on book #2 first, but each story could be read as a standalone, with out feeling lost or like you are ‘missing’ anything. Having said that, I am glad that I went back to read this first book- as it really does set the series off to a great start.
Cassie Gearhart wakes up in 2019- what happened to the last 45 years? She is determined to find out what happened in the ‘missing’ time. Her coven is gone- and the only potential help she can find doesn’t want anything to do with witchcraft and magic. What will happen- especially with danger approaching? What ensues makes for a fantastic story about a witch lost in time.
Can’t wait to continue the series.
Thank you, Denise D. Young!
Love witchy fiction?? Then this is the book for you! I found this book fun to read. I very much enjoyed it! First in it’s series, and a perfect start to a wonderful series too! Tangled Roots is a well written paranormal read with it’s fair share of magic, mayhem, and suprising twists! Welcome to Willow Creek where magic is no hidden secret. Love small town settings. The storyline is delightful. The characters are great, likeable and very well developed. Such a quick captivating read! The story does end in an interesting spot, so of course I NEED to read the next story to find out what happens. Can’t wait either!!
Oh my gosh guys, this book is great. The writing is amazing and so seamless it was easy to fall into this book and feel like I was there with Cassie and Nick in the forest. Loved the descriptions of the women in the coven, and seeing how the knowledge and magic was passed down through the generations. I found myself trying to figure out what my elemental would be if I were a witch. I definitely need to read the next books in this series, because I have so many questions, and I need to see what happens! Fantasy, romance, and YA lovers, buy this book!
I enjoyed this paranormal fantasy story. This is the first book in this series and what a great start it is. This is a well written story that has characters that bring the story to life on each page. They are relatable and made the story engaging. This is a faster paced story about Cassie and a spell she casted forty-five years ago which by the way is the last thing she remembers. Nick is the only other witch in this small town Cassie finds herself in. The problem comes in that when they are together passion flares and it could be their undoing. Will they find the coven? What will fate have in store for them? There is alot going on in this shorter story but it keeps you turning pages and it certainly is entertaining. They have great chemistry and just made great characters. I highly recommend this book.
Cassie was a witch from the past who loved her magic. Nick was a witch in the present who was hurt and trying to run from his magic. But they were destined to be together. They had to face unknown danger to make them stronger. Interesting and exciting story

Book one in the Tangled Magic Series a story of dark magic, a spell that is a curse for the woman who cast it. Cassie Gearhart and Nick Felson’s story, of Cassie starting in 1974 and ending up in July of 2019 as she overcomes the spell she cast. I enjoyed reading and want to read the next book. This is a new Author to me. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Wow!
Tangled Roots is a quick and easy read which will leave you hooked and wanting more.
*stamps foot*
I need answers!
*blushes*
I apologise, but you all know I have zero patience.
Cassie and Nick’s story evoked all the feelings and memories from my teen years when my friends and I were obsessed with all things magical. We wanted to be our own version of the Charmed sisters *snorts*.
I still remember one of my friends sneaking in her Book of Shadows to my house and my mum having a fit, lol.
*shakes head*
Sorry (again!), I digress as usual.
Back to the matter at hand…
I’ve never read a time slip story before, and I was intrigued about how all the elements (see what I did there?) would intertwine.
You could feel the magic weaving itself as each new strand of the story unfolded.
Cassie and Nick have an instant connection which leaps right off the page. It’s that sense of ‘rightness’ they have when they’re together. Like being two halves of the same whole.
I know I’m being vague, but on some occasions, less is more, peeps. I don’t want to be struck down with size-seven-in-mouth-itis – i.e. giving too much away. Heaven forbid *smirks*.
I’d definitely recommend this read to fellow PNR-loving readers who are looking for something out with the norm (even for PNR!).
An enchanting start to a new series by a new-to-me-author!
Witches. Spells. Love. A magical modern day Sleeping Beauty story if Aurora was part of a witch’s coven.
I am loving this First book in the Tangled Magic Paranormal Romance Series by Denise D. Young, and I absolutely cannot wait for the rest of the series. The book opens in 1974 where Cassie Gearhart is found after being in hiding from her abusive family. Cassie performs a spell, and with a Goddess’ help allowed her to escape her family. It is now 45 years later and the coven has vanished and the only one left is Nick Felson who has sworn off magic.
Nick at only 23 years old is a broken man. The only witch the torrent left behind – ready to start anew and away from what he calls his home in the farm, Saunders Farm House built in the 1920’s, in Willow Creek, Virginia. Nick was ready to sell the property and move to Arizona until one night, Cassie came knocking on his door.
Denise Young writes a beautiful story that is fast paced and truly a magical love story between Cassie and Nick. Once I started this amazing read, there was no way to put it down. There is so much excitement! The attraction and connection of these two characters were undeniably electrifying and oh so supernatural. I loved the characters, and the world Young has built. The story is also wrapped up nicely for the next installment of this mystical read.
I received a free copy of the ebook from the author and my opinions are my own.
