About this book

A relaxing day at the beach shifts from sun-drenched bliss to a desperate rescue when Quinn and Rowan Gray-Davenport pull a family from a sinking boat. But when Rowan’s daughter, Lana, spots lethal death omens clinging to the survivors, the rescue mission shifts into a haunting race against time. With only the grandmother spared from this grim fate, Rowan and her tight-knit found-family of paranormal hunters must unravel a web of secrets before a persistent spirit claims the rest of the clan.

This latest installment in the Return to Magic series masterfully blends the thrill of a paranormal mystery with the warmth of an enduring found-family dynamic. As Rowan delves into the family’s old-money history and the mysterious disappearance of the twins’ mother, she discovers that some ghosts refuse to be forgotten. The investigation forces the group to confront a dangerous past that threatens to destroy the future of everyone involved.

For fans of the genre, this story offers the perfect mix of supernatural intrigue and the emotional stakes of forbidden-love tensions. With the beloved crossover characters from Lily Harper Hart’s wider universe uniting to solve this deadly puzzle, it is an unmissable, fast-paced read that will leave you breathless until the final page.

I love all of Ms. Hart's series but this one is special due to her merging the characters of four previous series into this one. I love that the four main characters are strong women with equally strong husband's. Then you have Sander and all the kids to make for hysterical chapters that all parents have dealt with. This book was special as it seems the next generation for Rowan's gift has been passed on. I love reading this book. )

The magical mystery solving women are back at it, again

Rated 4 Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Read Kindle Unlimited I love now how each series continues but the gang seems to find themselves crossing over more often than not. I just love the unapologetic humour each character brings. )

Good story

Once the crew has been saved, Rowan and Lana view the picture and the death omen is on the father, his twin girls , the grandfather but not the grandmother....

Another Great Addition to This Series.
