When Alyssa inherits her late grandmother's house in the quiet town of Kotahi Bay, she hopes for a fresh start.

But as she settles into her new home, Alyssa quickly learns that her family legacy is more than just property—it's a powerful magic and a centuries-old ghost desperate to break free.

The townspeople expect her to step into the role of local witch, but haunting memories of a night filled with fire and loss make that impossible.

Torn between a restless spirit and mounting pressure from the town, Alyssa faces an impossible choice: embrace the power she's been given or flee back to the safety of her old life. To protect her new home and honor her grandmother's memory, Alyssa must confront her fears, unlock her hidden powers, and uncover a web of long-buried secrets.

A tale of healing, self-discovery, family, and the magic that binds us to the places and people we're meant to protect.

Another engaging world from IB. I love her ability to create suspense while also fostering a feeling of cozy comfort and relatability. I am looking forward to book 2.

Engaging world building

It is too short to be worth a credit. The main character is poorly developed and immature or maybe immature because she is poorly developed. This felt like it was written to a formula and in haste.

Meh
