WITCHES and FAIRIES and TACOS... Oh My

Practical Magic meets Bewitched

First Book in the new HOUSE WITCHES MYSTERY SERIES

Charli Quinn and her sister Brielle own House Witches Cleaning and promise to clean like magic. They may not be your everyday, run-of-the-mill witches, but they are… something.

When Charli finds the husband of one of their clients dead, the wind warns her to beware the man with eyes of green. As the sisters search for the ominous man, they find themselves in danger and rely on their real magic to outsmart the killer.

Along the way, Charli and Brielle have help from a group of fairies, and even a talking cow. And Charli falls head over broomstick for a tall, sexy deputy with dreamy blue eyes who saves her from being hijacked by a water sprite.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Texas without tacos.

They are:

•   Best friends
•   Work partners
•  Sisters
•   Witches… wicked good witches

Here' s the story behind the story. A few years back, we were moving from San Antonio to an area near the fictional setting of this book. are located. We were driving around this new area looking at different locations, different types of houses. All of a sudden, House Witches popped into my head. I had no idea what it meant, but it didn’t go away. I pulled my notebook and pen from the tote I nearly always have with me, and wrote it down.

As I wrote those two words, more ideas flowed. I added sisters, house cleaners. Then witches, with a couple of question marks following. Over the next few months, as we moved in to our new home and I finished the book I was working on, the House Witches stayed with me. I knew the next book I wrote would be about them.

The day I sat down in earnest to begin making House Witches story notes, their names came in my head. Brielle’s came first followed quickly by a few C names. I texted my own sister at that point and asked her which she liked better. And Charli was born.

Charli then told me the name of the deputy. I tried to give him a very Texas name. Finally she yelled at me, “Doug! His name’s Doug!” So Doug it was.

Charli and Brielle led me through the full story. I thank them. It was such fun to write. I’m looking forward to the next story they decide to share with me.
