Review: A Witch in Love

A Witch in Love (Winter Trilogy #2) 
by Ruth Warburton
Published July 5th 2012

Summary from Goodreads:
Anna still finds it hard to believe that Seth loves her and has vowed to suppress her powers, no matter what.

But magic – like love – is uncontrollable. It spills out with terrible consequences, and soon, Anna is being hunted.

Thoughts:
Let me warned you that this review will be full of spoilers if you haven't read the first book. I already reviewed the first book and immediately after finishing it, I started reading this one. And guess what? I just love, love, love this book!

It has romance, danger, adventure and it's a lot more exciting than the first book. In the second book, Seth and Anna has already became an item much to the horror of Seth's grandfather;Bran who despised witches. But Anna is having problem controlling her powers and the harder she tried not using it, it will manifest unexpectedly. It is so funny when Emmaline referred to Anna's sudden outburst of power as leakages. And I'm still a fan of her wry best friend; Emmaline and also Abe who in my opinion is much more suitable to Anna compared to bad boy Seth.

Anna also discovered some truths relating to her missing mother and she finally get to meet her maternal grandmother who turned out to be a member of the Eadwiltan. Besides the whole mysterious group of humans known as Malleus Maleficarum terrorizing Anna for being a witch, I just love that there's more insights to her magical lineage. We have muggles in Harry Potter and in this series they are referred to as outwith. As in the first book, the magical battles are very explosive and there's a hint of a possible love triangle in the future that I'm really hoping for.

If you're a fan of witches then this is indeed a series to look out for!

Verdict: 5 stars.In my Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenge
