Spells is book 2 in the Bayou Magic trilogy that is set in New Orleans and revolves around 3 sisters with supernatural powers. Spells focuses on the Millie, an active witch and psychic and her forever love, Lucien.

Even though this is a strong 4 star read, I liked book 1 a little more and I’m not sure why. I adored Millie and Lucien together. Lucien is definitely swoon worthy and his love for Millie is heart melting and never ending. It was fun catching up with the sister’s and their Mom is beco ...more

3.5 , rounding up to 4

Is is not a standalone. You need to read book 1 to understand the backstory of this book.

Once again, the girls are together trying conquer the evil spirits. There's not much difference between the first story and this book. Creepy Horace, his nasty deeds and his ability to manipulate people and create havoc is still a major part of the story.

2.5-3 stars. I really enjoyed book 1 of this series. But this one just wasn’t a hit for me. I liked the characters but the book didn’t hold my attention and I felt overall dissatisfied at the end. I’m sure I’ll still read the final book but this was just meh for me.

I completely devoured this book and Millie and Lucien's story is just amazing.

The second Bayou Magic book focuses on many of the themes and includes the same people as the first book, but you get Lucien as part of the mix. He and Millie have known each other forever. Literally. And their souls continue to find each other but sadly death comes for one of them each time they're together. This time, they are joining forces with Millie's sister and others to try and defeat the evil spirits that are ...more

This was the perfect October read!! I have been anxiously awaiting Spells; the second book in Kristen Proby’s Bayou Magic Series, since the second I finished Shadows last year. It was well worth the wait! I absolutely loved this book. This book is the perfect combination of creepy and sweet romance. Millie and Lucians love story is one that will stick with me for a long time. A love that spans lifetimes. I love these characters and I’m dying Serendipity’s release next fall!!
