Eldrith Manor
Leigh Rivers
by Kristen Painter
Welcome to Nocturne Falls, the town that celebrates Halloween 365 days a year.
The tourists think it's all a show: the vampires, the werewolves, the witches, the occasional gargoyle flying through the sky. But the supernaturals populating the town know better.
Living in Nocturne Falls means being yourself. Fangs, fur, and all.
Pandora Williams is Nocturne Falls' most successful real estate agent. And least successful witch. Her magic never has the intended outcome, but she's learned to live with that. Mostly. Yes, it sucks, but what can she do? Then a hot new neighbor shows up and suddenly her magic works. Very cool, but very suspect. Especially since he's a total non-believer.
Cole Van Zant likes practicality and absolutes. Things he can see and touch. So not magic. But when his teenage daughter insists she's a witch - and they're now living in a town that celebrates Halloween every day - he needs help. Of the witchy variety. Thankfully, his sexy neighbor buys into all that hocus pocus.
Enlisting her help seems like a great idea until spending time together reveals a supernatural surprise about who Cole really is. A secret even he didn't know. Could Pandora and Cole really be meant for one another or is their attraction too much to believe?

This delightful series just keeps getting better and better! I really enjoyed the cameos made by Pandora Williams, Nocturne Falls' real estate agent extraordinaire, in previous books, so I was happy to see her get her own story this time around. The witch with the wonky powers is brought together with her potential soul mate, cute math teacher-turned-home renovator, Cole Van Zant, by an unlikely source—his rebellious teen daughter. Kaley thinks she's a witch and is desperate to connect with...

As will all my reviews there are no spoilers and no story recap. This book is written in the third person with no explicit language or sexual scenes with a HEA ending. While this story is book 4 of the Nocturne Falls series that Kristen Painter writes it can easily be read as a stand alone and/or in any order you wish to read it. This story does mention people and couples from the other books, but it in no way gives the impression that you missed something. The other couples stories are not...

4 gnomes out of 5 gnomes I adore this series, it’s just so much fun. The characters, mythology, and town itself make for some really compelling reading. Plus this series is definitely great to read in October around Halloween. I’ve always wanted to know more about Pandora and what her deal is. Her whole witch family is a blast to read about. It was great seeing more of them and Pandora. Cole is an interesting case, I really liked the mythology associated with him because it wasn’t where I...

Y'all. I think I've found my new favorite book in the series! I literally could not put this book down. I kept telling myself... just one more chapter... just one more chapter... until it was almost 1am and I had finished the book. I'm now running on about 3 hours of sleep but, we all know, sleep is overrated.. 😉 Cole and his daughter, Kaley, moved to Nocturne Falls after he inherited his great-uncle's house. His plan is to renovate it and then sell it. And this needs to happen fast. Kaley is...

Like all the books in this series, number 4 is set squarely in Nocturne Falls, where it really is Halloween every day. Who would think of such a thing and then provide the budget to make it absolutely Disney-esque? Kristen Painter and her great imagination. Like everyone else who reads this series, I want to go there. She paints a very real small town--actually more realistic and modern then those of many non-paranormal writers. What she does that I like best, is names all the stores and shops,...
