Missing Charlie

A young folk singer made old before her time surrounded by a menagerie of familiar animal brethren seeks refuge in the wild backcountry hills of Montana away from the life that led to her being cursed until she saves a lost and injured hiker. Could he be the one to break the curse? Full of memorable characters, alternatively witty and heart-wrenching, this book kept me engaged through the final pages.

Well, that was a fun, delightful read! A fairy tale for adults brimming with magic!

Nona May Taylor was a talented folk singer who was young, talented and beautiful. But one day she is cursed by a witch for kissing a young man she cannot remember and not lives in a secluded cabin in the Montana woods with her family and manger who have also been cursed.

Only true love (what else) can break the curse.  Then one day she rescues Charlie, an injured hiker in the woods....

This was a fun book to escape the world with.  I enjoyed the story and meeting all the characters.  This is a perfect book for when you want to read something entertaining and light. Sit back, relax and enjoy.  This book reminded me of a couple of fairy tales as I was reading it but keep in mind it is geared for adults.  This book has a nice mix of music, family, love, magic, fantasy and danger.  

The book does jump around from the present to events in the past. These "jumps" in time are not always smooth but they do make sense, give some back story and contribute to the story.  

Whimsical, witchy, and worthwhile!

Thank you to Black Rose Writing and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.  All the thoughts and opinions are my own.

Yes! I now have another author to follow .  Missing Charlie was a great read.  Wonderful story filled with great characters, magic, humor, romance and hope.  Family can get through just about anything if they stick together.  Looking forward to reading more from this author.
