Synopsis

A hostile town. A mountaintop mission. Will their magic save the day or spoil the pudding?

Imogen thought escaping the king’s wrath would give her everything she wanted. But her relationship with Prince Hank is tougher than an overcooked flan and the welcome they get on Badlands Island is far less than friendly. Accused of kidnapping, Imogen proposes they prove their worth by traveling through a deadly forest to retrieve a magical herb at the top of a mountain…

Forced to take her baking skills on the road, Imogen and her friends must navigate monsters, secrets, and a possible traitor. And the little matter of the impending typhoon is seriously compressing their timeline…

With the storm and creatures closing in, can Imogen complete the quest or will her next meal be her last?

Due East, Beasts & Campfire Feasts in the seventh book in the Spells & Caramels series of paranormal cozy mysteries. If you like amateur witch sleuths, unbreakable friendships, and fascinating magical creatures, then you’ll love Erin Johnson’s page-turning adventure.

Review

There is something about this series that has drawn me into its fantasy world.  From vampires to witches, to beasts, all have captured my attention and won’t let go!

This book is a little more serious than some of the previous books.  Or at least it seems that way to me.  But not serious in a bad way, perhaps the situation just seems more intense than past events.  However, that didn’t deter me from being caught up in the characters, the mystery, and even the romance between various characters.  I am always amazed at authors that can create these fantasy worlds and continue to expand upon them and create new situations that don’t repeat.

This book picks right up where #6 left off and we get a peek into the Badlands which maybe aren’t so bad after all considering what we have learned about Hank’s father and what he has done in the past.  Imogen and the gang have to prove they are not like all the others but without their magic.  This is not necessarily a good thing because they cannot protect themselves.  There are some tense moments for everyone but also many comical moments.  I laugh when Imogen references things from the human world and no one has any idea what she is talking about.  I like that all of the characters have their flaws and no one is perfect.  This allows the reader to relate to them, even if their world is magical.

We give this book 5 paws up.

    I have to say that a series is my favorite because we see the same characters grow and learn. If this is a good series, then I want to read it.
