Note to self: Never warm a Cup-a-Soup using magic when it's just as easy to use a microwave.
Violet Jourdain is in trouble. She made a bad choice when preparing her lunch, and now she is in hot water with Baba Yaga herself. Her punishment? Two weeks of no magic and a forced vacation to rest, relax, and get her head on straight. That doesn't sound too bad, right? Except Violet is a workaholic Healing Witch, who has no idea how to take a break. Not that she can relax even if she tries. Why? Because she's staying in an apparently haunted cottage in the middle of the Louisiana bayou.
Add to that, her familiar, a proper British housecat, is suddenly acting like a rude, creepy lecher. She also has a supposed ghost leaving her menacing, but possibly, helpful messages. And her only neighbor is her sister's brother-in-law, who happens to talk to himself—or maybe dead people—but is still the most attractive man she's ever met. Yeah, things are definitely not relaxing.
Oh well, peace and quiet isn't all it's cracked up to be anyway.
