Bespelled (Standard Edition) (The Bewitched Series, 2)
Laura Thalassa
by Lana Harper
Daria Dasha Avramov is a necromancer who prefers the company of spirits to the complications of the living. As a rare devil eater tasked with patrolling the veil, she uses her formidable power to keep Thistle Grove safe from otherworldly threats. However, her greatest challenge isn't a demon; it is the lingering ghost of her past. Specifically, the woman she keeps pushing away—Ivy Thorn.
The town’s upcoming Cavalcade festival forces these two event planners into an unavoidable collaboration. For Dasha, the project is a desperate bid for a third chance at love. For Ivy, it is a high-stakes test of boundaries; she has had her heart broken by Dasha twice before, and she refuses to let it happen again. Their chemistry is as volatile as the magic they wield, simmering with the tension of unfinished business and deep-seated regret.
This urban fantasy gem is the perfect conclusion to the beloved Witches of Thistle Grove series. Blending atmospheric necromancy with a poignant second-chance romance, it delivers a deeply satisfying blend of magical spectacle and emotional intimacy. If you are looking for a paranormal escape filled with witchy community, high-stakes stakes, and a hard-won happy ending, this spellbinding finale is a must-read.

I absolutely love all the books in the Thistle Grove Witches series, and Rise and Divine is no different! Lana Harper has a way with words, settings, and characters that’s simply magical. I am so sad to say goodbye to this series, but I’m happy that I can re-read all five books every fall, forever. And hopefully Lana Harper has more witchy or paranormal books coming! She’s definitely an auto-buy author for me. ) One person found this helpful

I eagerly anticipated this book without knowing anything other than it surrounded an Avramov witch. I enjoyed the mystery and main character Dasha Avramov in this installment of the series. I connected with many themes in this one surrounding loss in many forms, which was beautifully written. I enjoyed that it tied in threads from the previous books and also tied both sides of Dasha's family together. One of the redemptive arcs in the book held a more personal significance for myself which I...
