When fate comes knocking, answer the door. Unless it knocks three times. Then just pretend you didn’t hear it.Life is full of trouble when you’re a psychic medium. I’m learning that the hard way. In my defense, though, I don’t seek it out. Trouble finds me. It’s practically waiting on my doorstep when I leave for work each day. When I accidentally let a dark entity into the house I share with my … entity into the house I share with my mentor, Ruby True, it’s up to me to banish this who-knows-what before the rest of Eastwind devolves into complete chaos.
It’s a taller order than I’m used to, and I’ll need help if I stand a chance. But the best man for the job is also the last man in town I would want to spend any amount of time with …
*This is a revised edition of a novel by the same name that was previously published as the Nora Bradbury series of the Witches of Salem world.
Note: This book is free of swearing, graphic violence, and sex. Okay, so Nora has a few naughty thoughts (you would, too, if you were secretly dating Tanner Culpepper), but she’s only human … or, witch? However, no acts take place or are described during the course of the story.

Nora, Tanner and Ruby go to Ezra’s Magical Outfitters to order a wand for Nora. He rock is staurolite to help keep her grounded and Ezra has never put one in a wand before and he’s looking forward to the challenge. It will be quite a while before it’s ready though. Nora is going to start taking lessons from Ruby as a Form Wind Witch and also a tutor for the basics. She’s already done things she shouldn’t have been able to do and it looks like she’s going to be a powerful witch, but she needs training. Before long, she’s at it again. She was sidetracked and didn’t pay attention to the three knocks before she opened the door at Ruby’s. A powerful wind, possibly a demon, whirls through the house and Ruby has to act quickly to get it out. Unfortunately it seems to have taken all the water and there were dead plants from Ruby’s to the Deadwoods. This keeps happening in different places and the water is drying up and killing plants. Not good in a magical town at all! Nora and Donavon, who doesn’t like her at all, have to try and expel this spirit and apparently it’s not going to be easy. This book is well written and has some great snark and laugh out loud moments. I loved it and am looking forward to reading more of this series!
This is now one of my favorite series as well as authors! I loved this book and was laughing at the relationship between Nora and her familiar! I really want to read more! I definitely recommend this book!
Eastwind Witches – I love these kinds of witches; nothing mean or nasty but tough when needed. My friend had these three books and we spent a day reading and laughing about the characters and the happenings. Funny, entertaining and well written, the stories are strong enough to keep the reader immersed in the pages, but with a simple storytelling style. The characters grow as the pages fly by and there’s no Stupid Formula, just plain entertainment. Surprise, no vulgar language or cussing. Plus, you’ll love Ted; sorry no spoilers. Little editing needed but not much.
Crossing Over Easy #1 – I love these kinds of witch stories. This is our first book by this author; my friend and I read her copies during one of our get-together weekends. We both had fun with them. Easily and quickly read, COE was funny and interesting. The characters are funny and entertaining; the story line was entertaining; and the dialog and actions weren’t of the stupid variety. Even without a friend’s comments, this book is good for relaxation or something simple but entertaining. Did I mention the book was entertaining. OK, I’m not funny, but Nova is a lot. 5*
Death Metal #2 – This book starts three months after Crossing Over Easy ended. We loved the dialog; it was almost as if we were doing the talking. Well written, funny and entertaining, the pages flew by as we laughed our way to the end. The characters are filling out more, including Eastwind, and their dialog is extremely entertaining. Nora is discovering more about herself and the perks and dangers of being a Fifth Wind witch. 5*
Third Knock The Charm #3 – This book begins two weeks after Death Metal ends. This time no one is killed, but many other things are instead. Funny, entertaining and this time filled with lots of sexual tension. My favorite character is the Library, which I wish all readers had access to one of their own. Ms. Nelson writes well, describes vividly and add humor in abundance. My friend and I just laughed ourselves silly about the message of sexual harassment is wrong, but physical assault is OK. Nope, we didn’t disagree on half of that message, but we come from a time of real sexual harassment where slapping hands or faces was a must; now it’s a crime to defend yourself. 5*
Queso de los Muertos #4 – Another well written, intriguing but quickly read Eastwind tale. Fast paced, entertaining and a touch of sexual tension, this is a good addition to the series. It’s nice the author doesn’t use vulgar language or explicit sex, but uses humor and well thought out storylines. The characters remain interesting and their dialog believable. There’s no stupid formula in this series. I could use a bowl of queso and handmade chips. I contacted the author to review her books since I enjoyed the first three. 5*
Psych Out #5 – Wow, we’ve a few twists to the plot! This book isn’t a cliffhanger, but it will fun to find out what’s happening with Nora in the next book. Well written, intriguing and with a few kinks added to mix, along with more development of the characters. The plot is really intense near the end of the story and there’s a few laughs along the way. Plus, the sexual tension is still running amok. 5*
Gone Witch #6 – Imagine the sexual tensions with three guys available, poor Nora. Another well written, fast paced plot filled with intrigue and suspense. Along with humor, there’s a build up for a bad future ahead for Eastwind. Changes are already taking place, especially with several characters. Once started, this story was hard to put down. 5*
Love Spells Trouble #7 – What a neat spell, but what terrible residuals. Another fun and magical book. There’s all kinds of characters from the past, along with trouble for the future. The storyline was pretty good and there’s plenty of sexual tension and then some. There’s plenty of intrigue and suspense to go with the tension and the humor. One of the characters leaves and I hated to see him go, but the ending still works just fine. 5*
I started the series with this book. It was after reading some intense books. Was happy to have something fun and lighthearted to read.
i will admit that I need a dictionary for all the different creatures in this world. I do not know what they are: nix and xana for example. but will continue on so I can learn.
Love Grim and his attitude. Need more of him.
Really really really love this series.
This is the 3rd in the series about Nora h her new life in Salem. Nora thinks inadvertently let a restless demon spirit loose in Salem and sets out to fix it. Trials are had, lines are crossed and Nora makes decisions about her future.
I received an ARC if this story and have v
This book was such fun; I could not put it down until it was finished. Nova is a really great character. The town of Salem is definitely strange and has quite a few interesting non-human’s residing there. This is the first book in this series that I have read. Will now go and read the two books prior to this one. Nora and Tanner are just starting their romantic adventures, cannot wait to see how this progresses in the future as Donavan looks on. Grim, Nora’s familiar is sarcastic and funny. Looking forward to reading the first two books and the books following this one.
