Reviewer: Bex
V.J Chisholm's concept for her novella, Magick Weaved on a Samhain Eve, is sexy and pretty sassy. The build up to the action, as it were, is fairly well developed, this is a novella after all. The character Alexia is quickly established and we get a clear sense of her character.
The events move very quickly up the the pinnacle of the novella, and when we get there unfortunately the story is pretty much over. Considering the very sexy nature of this novella - the concept and the build up - what was somewhat frustrating was that V.J Chisholm didn't fully follow through.
The main plot leads us to expect one hot amazing night, yet 'The Night' was lacking. Please do not misunderstand, for a novella of this caliber it's not necessary to heavy and graphic love scenes, yet the characters didn't have enough depth to be able to support itself fully. Plus, considering the descriptive build up in the novella, I was let wanting more.
Magick Weaved on a Samhain Eve has great potential to be so much more; it would make a superb book where the characters could be fully explored and the reader left satisfied, especially because I really liked V.J Chisholm's descriptive narrative. Overall, I enjoyed it, but I did expect so much more.
Alexia is a lively, single, sassy and sexy coven witch, somehow she finds herself and her sex life ( or lack of it) the hot topic of her fellow coven sisters after one of her covens full moon meetings. Add the mix the discovery of an old spell. Alexia’s life starts to change very quickly from the moment that a spirit named Lance appears and comes into her life. Throw in the heat of the full moon and a hint of destiny, life will never be the same again for Alexia.
