The Good, the Bad, and the Witchy (A Wishcrafter Mystery, Book 3)
by Heather Blake
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A birthday party for an eighty-year old, this Darcy can do, except for the stripper, really? Is that appropriate? Nothing can go wrong with this, right. Wrong. This is the Enchanted Village and for some reason Darcy seems to be finding all the dead bodies in town, so when she goes outside looking for the cake, she stumbles over the body of the delivery guy. Only this time, the spirit of the dead stays witch Darcy and helps her figure out this mystery.
Things heat up between Darcy and Nick - of course there are issues, in the person of Glinda, who has her sights set on Nick herself, or at least his position as police chief.
Another installment in the life of Darcy and her adjustment to being a witch and the town of enchanted Village.

A Witch Before Dying (A Wishcrafters Mystery, Book 2)
by Heather
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Darcy is starting to adjust to her new life in Enchanted Village and the fact that she is a witch, or crafter as they are known in the village, in fact she is a wishcrafter, which means that she can grant wishes, if certain rules are followed.
Eloide is a Geocrafter and owns the gem store in the village which is beautiful, but she has hired Darcy and As You Wish to clean out her mothers house so that she can sell it, of course that upsets some people. Poor Patrice has been missing for almost two years, she just vanished, and of course people don't do that in normal life.
When Darcy visits the house, the neighbor Yvonne tags along and makes the wish to know what happened to Patrice - oops, the next step finds Patrice stuffed in a suitcase! That is more than anyone expected. Now Nick and the police are involved and of course Darcy can't help but investigate, which leads to her working to secure a PI license.
This series is really cute. You have Darcy, who is really gun-shy around guys, then there is single dad Nick, and they are attracted but everything in the Village and other people are always in their way and making things difficult, so it turns out they are taking things extremely slow. The characters are awesome and they are so much fun to follow and learn more about, as well as learning about the whole idea of the craft, or magic. Its all done just a little at a time which makes it feel like real life.

It Takes a Witch (Wishcrafter Mystery, Book 1)
by Heather Blake
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Just last month Darcy's world was falling apart, her father had dies, she was jobless and still reeling from her divorce and then there was Harper's activism that lead to shoplifting. She had no idea what she was going to do, or how to pull it all together when Aunt Velma arrived. Now Harper and Darcy have moved to Enchanted Village and learned they are witches - well wishcrafters, meaning they can grant wishes, if certain rules have bene followed.
Darcy is just trying to settle in and then there is a murder. Darcy is naïve enough to think the police can handle it, Harper wants to investigate and that sets off Darcy's mother instinct. Then again, Darcy is the only mom that Harper has known since their mother died having Harper. Harper just wants Darcy to lighten up and live life.
This is cute series, a village of witches yet it is marketed as a tourist spot, so no one knows if the witches are real or fakes. so many rules for Darcy to learn, and she just wants to fit in and relax.
Definitely a cute, fun book to read.
