Some Enchanted Autumn
By: Lillian Brummet
Some Enchanted Autumn by Linda Andrews is an excellent
gift idea for the Halloween season. Vampires, skeletons,
spiders, witches"¦ they are all here - but this is definitely
not a children’s book.
One town, founded by the same wagon train during the
pioneering days of the North American continent, holds a
secret that could destroy them all.
Divided by a bitter and ancient rift, it becomes two rival
towns - Pumpkin and Holly. These folks take their holidays
seriously, but none more so than Pumpkin’s residents do.
Lonnie, who is running both from herself and from facing
her pompous and boring boyfriend, returns to Pumpkin - her
hometown. There she meets Nicholas who is both more
wonderful than her wildest dreams and as frightening as
her childhood nightmares. Together they are assigned the
difficult task of discovering the “Prankster’s” identity and the
reason’s why that person is set on keeping the ancient rift
between the towns alive.
Nicholas and Lonnie harbor a steamy and slightly erotic
passion for one another, which they do their best to keep in
check. Their family ancestors, after all, were the main
players in the rift that continues to tear the towns apart.
I would classify Some Enchanted Autumn as a
fantasy-fiction, paranormal-romance novel with comedic
elements. Although it begins with a bit of confusion, the
story rises in pace until I felt unwilling to put the book aside.
This 238-page book is not the author’s first endeavor. In
fact, Linda has written two other books, The Christmas
Village and Ghost of a Chance.
