Sage Merriweather and his family are witches. But good
ones, not bad
ones. At least he was until bonded with a demon that
changed him. He
is bound to protect Marianne Grey, his sister-in-law
Julia's younger sister.
Marianne is a ghost with her physical body at Merriweather
Manor, in a
sleeping state. Invisible to everyone but Sage and her
sister, he is intent
on finding someone to remove the spell placed on her by
his brother
Drake, and return Marianne to her body.
Julia's husband Basil has located someone to try and who
might have
access to spells and other scientific knowledge to help
Marianne. Even
though Marianne professes love for another man, Sage is
drawn to her
unlike other women he has known. With a reputation of a
rake and
womanizer, avoiding these women while trying to focus on
Marianne in
her phantom state, is not easy. Meeting with Desmonda
Green brings its
own issues. In Sage's new state, Sage battles a demon
with fire spurting
from his hands to protect Marianne, who he is quickly
falling in love with.
Learning that only a kiss from her true love will return
her to her physical
body, Sage believes that man is Marianne's fiancé.
I completely enjoyed this tale of mystical power, witches
and mystery
from the Merriweather Witches series. A true
storyteller, Tricia Schneider kept me tied
to my seat in anticipation of what's to happen next. THE
WITCH'S KISS is a pleasure
to read, wondering the whole time how this character is
going to right
the wrongs to a happy ending. I have not had the pleasure
of reading any
of Tricia Scneider's works before, but would certainly
enjoy doing so again.
She is a woman with great imagination and the ability to
create
excitement.
Marianne Grey is a ghost. But, she's not dead. Cursed by a necromancer, Marianne searches for the elusive spell needed to merge her spirit with her physical body. She's not alone in her search. Her neighbor and best friend, Sage Merriweather, has vowed to help her break the curse. Sage suffers from his own demons. Literally. After surviving a horrific attack, a demon has bonded with him, mutating Sage's magic so he can only conjure fire. Until he can break the bond, he is a danger to everyone near him, including those he loves. From the glittering ballrooms of London to eerily dark graveyards, Marianne and Sage battle forces of evil destined to claim their souls for eternity. Though their newfound love for each other may be the toughest battle of all.
