Portia Mullins had always lived the life of a normal teenager,
up until her sixteenth birthday. She is then informed by her grandma that she
is actually a witch who is a descendant of a long line of witches and warlocks.
After overcoming her disbelief she finds that being a member of the coven comes
with one great perk in the form of the school's handsome bad boy, Vance Mangum.
Vance and Portia have an immediate connection as a budding romance begins, only
to be threatened by turbulent skies on the horizon as Vance's checkered past
rears its ugly head to haunt them. Portia is forced to use her untried powers
in defense of everything she loves in a desperate attempt to hold on to the one
thing that really matters in her life.
Review-
Absolutely loved this book!
For Portia her whole life is about to have a huge change. She turns 16 and along with her birthday comes some more changes she must learn about. Including why the guy she has been crushing on since he moved to town is finally paying her attention.
Vance Mangum, which I keep wanting to call him Magnum instead, has wanted to be with Portia from the beginning, but as a promise to her father had to stay away. That is until now, her sixteenth birthday is finally the day he can make his move. What he was prepared for with her, she wasn't quite as prepared, but she was completely open to see what they had there with each other.
"I couldn't decide if he kissed like a god or the devil, or maybe even a bit of both. It was sweet and sensual, soft at first and then deeper, tender and then rougher, heavenly and more than slightly carnal too. There was most definitely something between us, and I , for one, was eager to find out what it was."
Unfortunately, they can't have just a normal relationship. There are extreme forces working against them. Will they even get the chance for their relationship to go anywhere? Can they make it out of this crazy adventure unscathed? He could either be the best or worst thing to ever happen to her.
"Sometimes it's like my life is just beginning. It's a new awakening for me. Even when I knew you were the one for me, I had no idea it would be this strong." He ran his thumb over my lips. "It's not only the physical part of it either. It's everything. I don't know, it's like I was only halfway living before now."
The Trouble with Spells starts with the prologue in Vance's POV and then the rest of the book in Portia's POV. I absolutely love the flow of the book. Then of course I always seem to love Lacey's books! Things between the characters are unrealistic of course, but seriously with a life like theirs' it makes a ton of sense. I love the many aspects of their tale. I wanted at times to scream at the characters that seriously it's completely obvious what is going on, but unfortunately they didn't listen. Anyways, I completely love this book and completely recommend it!

About The Author-
.jpg)
Lacey Weatherford was born in Ft. Meade Maryland while her
father was serving in the military. She has been a life long resident of
Arizona, spending most of her time growing up in the small rural town of Clay
Springs.
It was while she was attending the small country school in Clay
Springs, that she read her first "big" book at the age of eight. It
was a Nancy Drew novel and Lacey was instantly hooked. She read every book that
she could find in the series and decided that she wanted to write stories too.
Lacey spent a lot of time at the library from that time
forward, even volunteering in her later teen years and early twenties. She
would don a crazy clown outfit for the Friends of the Library fundraisers in an
effort to help get the new town library built.
When she and her husband moved away from the area, Lacey took
the opportunity to take some creative writing classes at the local college to
help further along her interests. Several years later, they were blessed with
the opportunity to move back to Clay Springs with their family. The town had
finally succeeded in building their library and Lacey had the opportunity to be
President of the Friends of the Library for a very short time, before
relocating.
Lacey and her family still live in the White Mountains of
Arizona, where she continues to write young adult novels that have a
fantasy/fairytale or paranormal bent to them, as well as being sure to include
a great romantic storyline!
