Emma Hart is a lawyer on her way to meet a client, but she gets lost and ends up in a deserted area where no one should be, although that night was the exception. There was a figure about to jump off a cliff, probably attempting suicide. Emma ran out of the car to help this person. It was with this decision that her life changed drastically. We discovered that she couldn't return to the forest or the road. There was a barrier that kept her close to the cliff and the lake below it. The person she saved was actually Daniel, a fallen angel who explained to the lawyer that he wouldn't jump, he was just at the entrance of his supernatural village called Spellbound.
Unable to leave the surroundings of Spellbound, the only thing left for her is to reach the village and try to discover why all this is happening to her. We already know the protagonist's family history, the location of this magical village, and the ability of "The Sight" which allows her to see supernatural beings. That's why Daniel thought Emma wasn't just a simple human if she was able to see him.
We find out that there's a curse that prohibits beings from leaving the village and it seems that Emma is trapped there forever. Everyone advises her that she will now have to make her life there. This is an adventure where she will learn about herself, discover that she's a witch, and that maybe her "human" abilities can be just as useful in this new place, especially since the village is in mourning for the murder of one of its inhabitants.
We get to know a lot of supernatural beings such a Vampires, Succubus, Fairies, Elfs, Dwarfs, and of course, bunch of pretty witches. There is also Sedgwick, a very uncommon familiar.
I loved that we could drink a Latte of Empowerment whenever you needed an extra shot, that the clothes were going to always suit you and no way I wouldn't mention the Fairies Cleaning System. There's some references to Harry Potter and just when a chapter is about a ring and a dwarf, we get to read a reference to Lord of The Rings. Such perfect timing!
This is the first of 10 books of the Spellbound Series, it doesn't take much to read it and you sympathize with the MC because just like you, she doesn't know anything about the place she's currently at. Since the beginning you can sense that the world is well built, the characters are charismatic and each one of them has its enigma that perhaps we can discover as the saga progresses.
Since this is a Cozy Mystery, you get lots of laughs and the scenarios that seem serious end up being very funny. It has its dose of everything, it makes you want to continue reading. Besides, I don't think I'm the only one intrigued by Demetrius.
