In this sparkling prequel we meet sisters Frances and Jet and Vincent, their brother.

From the beginning their mother Susanna knew they were unique: Franny with her skin as pale as milk and blood red hair, who could commune with birds; Jet as shy as she is beautiful, who knows what others are thinking, and Vincent so charismatic that he was built for trouble.

Susanna needed to set some rules of magic: no walking in the moonlight, no red shoes, no wearing black, no cats, no crows, no candles and certainly, absolutely, no books about magic…

But the Owens siblings are desperate to uncover who they really are. Each heads down a life-altering course, filled with secrets and truths, devastation and joy, and magic and love.

Despite the warning handed down through the family for centuries Know that for our family, love is a curse – they will all strive to break the rules and find true love.

Absolutely loved this prequel to Practical Magic (movie version). Especially with having the movie version of Jet and Franny in my mind as the characters evolved in the book as they grew up, changed and became who they are today. Many parts were sad which makes me appreciate the story line of Practical Magic when Jet and Franny are older and wiser.


That’s the only thing about books like these, especially when they are connected to favourite movies of mine; they leave me rather emotionally drained with the story line still going in my head which incapacitates me a bit so I can’t read another book just yet.
