My tease is from

Rehab Is For Witches

by Multiple Authors

There were so many good teasers in this book I couldn’t choose which one to use.

So I’m going to give you this from the very beginning.  I am having so much fun and having a lot of laugh out loud moments.

So here is my tease:

A hint about this book…

This book doesn’t stick to time as though it was Velcro. It moves in the same direction, but it flits back and forth, because this is a journey of six witches aiming to get through magical rehab. So it’ll follow all of them on their journeys…and then the journey they take together.

So, sometimes you’ll go back, and sometimes you’ll go forward. We guess that’s just the nature of magic. You’ll get the hang of it.

We’d also like to note that in the making of this book there were many jokes about names for spells, giggling, epic bouts of brainstorming, and that one brilliant joke about the Kracken…er…well, you’ll see. So we hope you enjoy this book, and we take no responsibility for the swearing, giggles, romance, or unadulterated drama you’ll find. Just don’t drink anything for a few pages. Nobody likes coffee snorted all over a clean table.

I was given this ARC to review for an upcoming tour. I don’t know what might have been changed since I read this. Hopefully they left this beginning in. It does a great job of preparing you for the fun inside.

Keep an eye out for my review on December 3rd.

Synopsis

Welcome to Little Raven: an unsullied, beautiful woodland hamlet in the heart of the Midwest. The sort of place where furry creatures romp about and spend their days bursting into song.

Actually, that’s a giant pack of lies.

Little Raven is a town…for witches.

And some of those witches might have bent the rules. A teensy bit. When six magical miscreants dabble with black magic, they end up together at Incantations, the town’s rehab center for witches gone awry. It’s a slap on the wrist for naughty witches. Pretty much a daycare center so they don’t wander off and start turning people into newts on a whim. Each witch must work through her addiction to black magic, and follow the tenets designed to lead them back to the path of the straight and narrow, as boring as that sounds. Even if following the tenets sucks worse than a group round of kum-bay-ya. Which sucks. Horribly.

We will admit we are powerless over magic—that our lives have become unmanageable.

We will make a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of the Goddess as we understand Her.

We will make a searching and fearless moral and magical inventory of ourselves.

We will admit to the Goddess, to ourselves, and to another being the exact nature of our magical wrongs.

We will make a list of all persons or beings we have harmed, and become willing to make amends to them all.

We will make direct amends to such beings whenever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

We are entirely ready to bow before the Goddess and have Her remove all our defect of character, even at the risk of being entirely stripped of our magic.

But this is just the start. There’s something rotten in Little Raven, something that seeks to take all the magic it can, and devour the inhabitants in the process. It will take the strength and power of all the witches to defeat the darkness seeping into their town, beat it back, and be rid of it forever…and maybe just make it through rehab while they’re saving the world.
