AUTHOR: Nikki Jefford
SERIES: Spellbound (Book #1)
SYNOPSIS: Two months after dying, seventeen-year-old witch Graylee Perez wakes up in her twin sister Charlene’s body.
Until Gray finds a way back inside her own body, she’s stuck being Charlene every twenty-hour hours. Her sister has left precise instructions on how Gray should dress and behave. Looking like a prep isn’t half as bad as hanging out with Charlene’s snotty friends and gropey boyfriend.
The “normals” of McKinley High might be quick to write her behavior off as post-traumatic stress, but warlock Raj McKenna is the only person who suspects Gray has returned from the dead.
Now Gray has to solve the mystery of her death and resurrection and disentangle herself from Charlene’s body before she disappears for good.

Being Charlene (Entangled, Spellbound #1)
IN
THIS SCENE: After Graylee Perez is
brought back to life she must pretend to be her twin sister Charlene while
she’s stuck sharing her body. To “help” her out, Charlene has started a
communications notebook instructing Gray on ‘How to be Charlene.’
“…for now I’m supposed to pretend to be Charlene?”
Mom brought a notebook over. “Yes, and your sister
left some notes to help you out.”
Gray stared at the notebook a moment before taking
it. She flipped it open.
NO
MORE PIZZA, YOU PIG!!! I GAINED 2 POUNDS BECAUSE OF YOU!
No
wearing your clothes in public. I will choose an outfit for you to wear to
school on the days you’re me.
Hair
must be worn down. No pig tails, pony tails, hair clips or goofy Princess Leia
style buns on the side of your head.
No
leaving the house without makeup. I have taped examples and tips in the
following pages on how to create a smoky eye.
Gray flipped back to several pages of magazine print
and step-by-step illustrated guides for creating a smoldering look. She flipped
back to the front page.
No
speaking to anyone at McKinley who isn’t on the approved list (see the
following pages). Don’t even think about trying to visit with your old friends
unless you want to get us committed to an insane asylum.
Absolutely
no—UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES—having sex with Blake.
Ewwww!
Gray looked up, her face still contorted. “Did you
read this?”
Mom was putting away the brown sugar. “No, Charlene
told me not to.”
“And you listened to her?”
Mom looked directly at Gray. “She said it was private.”
More
like psychotic.

SERIES: Spellbound (Book #2)
SYNOPSIS: If Graylee Perez thought sharing a body with her twin sister was bad, dealing with a duplicate of herself is two times worse. Gray the second doesn’t seem to get that Lee’s boyfriend, Raj McKenna, is off limits. Then there’s the problem of Adrian Montez. He expects one of the Grays to be his.
Nearly a year later, the council is onto them for past misdeeds; Lee, along with the rest of the coven, has lost control of her powers; and Gray is being stalked by what looks like the Grim Reaper.
If they work together, they may stand a chance of setting things right and making it out alive.

IN THIS SCENE: Adrian’s grandmother returns in book three,
accompanying him on his magic tour in Europe.
“This food no good.”
Adrian’s Nan glared down at the plate of
paella the waiter had set before her.
They were seated at an antique marble
table attached to legs made of curly cast-iron supports. It was only noon,
which made Adrian and his Nan the first lunch customers of the day. The Spaniards
wouldn’t be out for their mid-day meal till closer to two.
Adrian was already three bites into his
dish. “There’s nothing wrong with the food, Nan.”
“Food better in Paris.”
“Spanish food is fine. You just miss the
pastries.”
“What wrong with pastries?”
Adrian grinned. “Come on, you have to
admit it’s good to get out of the apartment.”
Nan scowled in answer.
His Nan had barely stepped foot outside
since arriving in Barcelona two weeks prior.
“Why we come to Spain?”
“I told you. I had an opportunity to
perform.”
“Perform!” Nan spat on the ground then
tossed up her arms. “You perform plenty in Paris. I know why we come to Spain.
The girl.”
Nan missed the look of warning on
Adrian’s face.
“You almost kill yourself for this girl
and still I no meet.”
“I did not almost kill myself for her.
It doesn’t matter, anyway. She hates me.” She probably hated him even more
after last night. It was of little consequence. Adrian had not expected to see
Graylee Perez again, at least not this soon. Her mother had forbidden it. He
smirked at the thought. No one forbade
Adrian Montez anything.
Nan huffed. “Love. Hate. Doesn’t matter.
You powerful warlock. Make girl love you.”
Adrian wasn’t above manipulation or the
use of magic to get what he wanted, but in this instance the mere thought of it
made him physically recoil. “I am Adrian Hedrick Montez. I will have a woman’s
sincere love or I won’t have it at all.”
Nan huffed again.
Adrian smiled slowly. “Besides, I
already have the love of a good woman.”
Nan came the closest to a giggle as
Adrian had ever heard. Her lips puckered into a brief smile and she actually
took a bite of her food. But as soon as she’d swallowed, she leaned forward and
asked, “When we return to Paris?”
It was like dealing with a four-year-old.
