Description
At first glance, Agnes seems pretty normal. She loves running her café/bookstore, ‘Steamers and Dreamers’, where she’s adored by all her staff. She doesn’t have much family, but her Uncle Robin is always there when she needs him. She’s even got a nice little flirtation going on with a cute customer named Stuart. When evening rolls around, Agnes likes to go out for a drink or two with her friends. Okay, maybe more than one or two. What are you, her conscience?
But Agnes isn’t that normal at all. In the first place, she’s a witch, and in the second, she’s thousands of years old…and C) well, you know her Uncle Robin? He’s a shape-shifting bat. Agnes has issues. She had them back in Greek antiquity when her best friend married a prince that Agnes never really trusted. She’s got them today too. Remember that cute guy, Stuart? Well, he asks her to help him investigate a murder that she…umm…committed. In duelling story lines, set in ancient times and modern, Agnes grapples with problems so epic they could blow a witch’s mind or at least blow things up with her eyes. But don’t think that means Agnes won’t have time to fall in love…twice.

This is a great book with a wonderful story and well developed characters. The story flowed very well and was very enjoyable. This book will keep you reading long into the night and you will not want to put this book down until you finish. This was such a great read and full of surprises. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader’s copy of this book. The free book held no determination on my personal review.
This is the first book that I have read by Kelly Brookbank and she has a very unique writing style that is very fun and different. Agnes is a very ancient witch that finds herself in a small town owning a shop Steamers and Dreamers part café part bookstore. She was a fun and interesting character and the book was full of several surprises. Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read this and write an unbiased review.
