Everwish; The Primati Witches Book One: Primati Witches Book One by Amelia Oz

5.0

I loved this debut from Amelia Oz! Not only did it have hints of a fairytale retelling of Sleeping Beauty, but curses, prophecies, witches, demons, mermaids, elemental magic, and everything in between. It might sound like a lot, but it's all expertly weaved throughout a tight plot carried by an amazing female character in Stella, and her half-angel, half-demon love interest, Alaric. When Stella discovers there's more to the death of her parents than what she was told, she also finds out she's the latest descendant in a line of women who have all fallen in love and died by their 21st birthday. Intent on breaking the curse, she seeks help from a kind stranger, who turns out to be more than he seems, and her best friend who has been hiding the fact that she's a witch. Secrets are revealed, alliances are forged and broken, there's an action-packed ending, and enough twists to keep the pages turning. The main story wraps up nicely, but as it's just the first in a series, there's plenty of exciting threads left hanging for the next book--which I can't wait to read!
