Book of Shadows

Four estranged sisters discover they’re witches. No training. No time to learn. And a cursed sorcerer hunting them.

When their estranged father dies, four very different sisters reunite in the moss-draped shadows of Fairforest, South Carolina. They expect awkward silences, unresolved resentment, and maybe a little wine. They don’t expect their eccentric Aunt Mathilde to drop the bomb that they’re witches—descendants of a powerful bloodline tied to an ancient and dangerous Book of Shadows.

Hannah, the calculating New Yorker.

Bess, the picture-perfect Southern wife.

Bridget, the reluctant healer.

Scarlett, the firestarter who doesn’t know she’s unbreakable.

They don’t want this life. But they don’t get a choice.

Lucindor Darkthorne, patriarch of a rival witch bloodline, will do anything to steal the Book of Shadows and reverse the curse eating his family alive. And his weapon of choice may be his son, Alaric—reckless, magnetic, and far too interested in Scarlett for anyone’s safety.

The sisters barely know how to be family, let alone witches. But the Book holds secrets only they can unlock—and enemies who know exactly what they’re worth.

Because the Book isn’t just a weapon.

It’s a key.

And what it opens could remake their world…

Or burn it to the ground.

Book of Shadows is the gripping first book in The Fairforest Witches Mysteries urban fantasy series. If you like complicated family dynamics, wry humor, Southern Gothic atmosphere, and witches discovering their deadly heritage, then you’ll love Victoria Belue’s spellbinding tale of sisterhood and sorcery.
