Claw of Attraction
(2023)(The second book in the Crystal Beach Magic Mystery series)
A novel by Karen McSpade
Magic in this witch's family has a name: Trouble.
Sidney Grace is trying to adjust to her new life in Crystal Beach, Florida which comes with a whole new set of challenges. Mainly, what is she going to do to support herself now and how long can she stay illegally parked at the beach? The handsome Officer Reece is tough on criminals and even tougher on witches. But these aren’t even her biggest troubles…
For starters, her mom, the Tupperware Queen, is headed down for a surprise visit…to look at buying her own property in Crystal Beach. After all, who else is going to protect Sidney from her magic-wielding grandmother? Cue the funeral march on Sydney’s phone. Now she must contend with a pushy realtor, her crazy new boss, a botched mini-golf tournament, and her talking cat, while secretly unlocking her own magic.
As she opens her mind to her psychic powers to help the residents at Shifting Sands, Sidney discovers a second chance for love, but her heart is pulling her in two different directions, and one direction could very well be deadly.
Read Claw of Attraction, the second installment in the Crystal Beach Mystery Series, for a bewitchingly fun paranormal cozy mystery with charming characters that will keep you spellbound!
“Love, love, love this series! It’s the right kind of, quirky, perfectly cozy, but most of all fun. The humor along with the fantastic characters sell this and keep you wanting more. Can Sidney make it in time to save her grandmother and why is her mother Julie Mae planning on paying a visit all of a sudden?” ~janelit43 (Bookbub)
“This is such a fun read with more ghosts, more magic, and more murder. I am enjoying the series and seeing Sidney starting to come into her own.” ~J Young“The characters are great. The story line intriguing. But the Sidney’s living in her converted van with her 4 cats is my favorite part of the background. This story with her discovering her HS boyfriend had a tragedy right after suddenly leaving their home town then 10 years later they ‘bump’ into each other. Great spin on things.” ~Debra Rodriguez (Goodreads)
“Great fun at Crystal Beach. Golf tournament, talking cat and Tupperware! What's not to like!” ~Alastair Cattanach
“I truly enjoyed reading this story. It has great characters, a well thought out entertaining plot and a lot of humour - I chuckled throughout the book.” ~Lavender Jade (Goodreads)
“The story had me hooked from the beginning. The characters are also funny, engaging and quirky as we follow them through the story. If you liked book one you will definitely this continuation of the series. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys cozy mysteries with cliffhangers, magic, cats, lovable seniors and coming of age witches with a penchant for trouble.” ~beaglelove2009 (Bookbub)
“We are headed back to Crystal Beach in the second book in this new series by Karen McSpade and it just keeps getting better. Sidney Grace, while dealing with her grandmother, Ada-Mae, receives an unexpected visit from her mother. Sidney’s ex-boyfriend also shows up and while she’s dealing with these developments, the body count keeps rising. Claw of Attraction is a great book!” ~Deanna Depriest (Amazon)
“The story evolves as Sidney practices some newly discovered magical skills. Love comes calling, but some unexpected twists and turns make this a very exciting read!” ~HFS (Amazon)
