Southern Wands

Summary

Life just won’t settle down for Pepper Dunn. The Head Witch Order has arrived with one mission—secure Pepper’s powers for themselves at any cost.
The entire Craple household is on deck to save Pepper. Grandma Betty has formed her own resistance, and even though they’re groaning about it, Amelia and Cordelia jump in to assist her.
In order for Pepper to fight the Order successfully, she must tap the very depths of her power. But Pepper also needs allies.
Pepper thinks she’s found one within the Order’s very ranks. But when her ally is murdered, Pepper herself looks guilty of the crime.
There’s no denying Pepper’s got a lot on her plate—learn her magic, prove she isn’t the killer and oh yes, finally give Axel an answer to his proposal.
The last should be the easiest one, but Rufus Mayes is in town to help and Pepper’s tangled feelings about Rufus often get in her way.
But there’s no time for confusion—if Pepper wants to be free of the Order, she must magically defeat the witch in charge.
Yet she must also uncover a killer. Can Pepper do it all? Face down the Order and solve a murder without getting herself killed in the process? Will she survive long enough to give Axel an answer? Can she finally put the lingering tension between her and Rufus to rest?
And most importantly, will Betty’s resistance cripple the Order’s ranks or cause more trouble for Pepper and the gang?
