A Convenient Marriage by Maggie Tideswell (The Moragh Saga, Book 1)
A paranormal romance set in South Africa.
REVIEW:
Paranormal with a romantic story woven in to keep me engaged. The author is creative with her writing and I especially loved the ghost aspect that she weaves throughout. Characters are developed and I felt for the “ghost” of Moragh with her pain and heartache. Couple of subplots and interesting and engaging secondary characters. The ghost of Moragh is featured prominently and I was enthralled with the owls. There are characters dabbling in the witchcraft and serious witches trying to figure out and fix what went awry. Out of my normal genre (paranormal is not one of my favorite types to read) but I am glad I gave this book a chance. I ended up enjoying it and found it a fun read.
I received a copy of this book from the author, but was not required to write a review or influenced in terms of my review.
