Do you sense the bewitching magic in my touch? There is an inexplicable power that lies within physical contact, a captivating phenomenon that can be felt but never adequately explained. It is a force that can communicate emotions, awaken dormant passion, and forge a connection between two souls. It is in the gentle brush of a hand, the lingering embrace, the electrifying spark that ignites when two bodies come in contact. The power of touch is a language all on its own, one that goes beyond words and reaches the depths of our primal instincts. It is a subtle yet potent tool that can convey love, comfort, and desire with a mere graze of the skin. It can calm an anxious heart, provide solace in times of distress, and even heal wounds that no medicine can reach.
As the body count rises, Tara has to get past her fears, reconnect with her magic, and cast herself in a more central role to save the town—even if it means putting her new relationship at risk.
The Bewitching Hour is a full of '90s nostalgia, mysterious murders, and a star-crossed sapphic romance, blended perfectly together by New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Ashley Poston.

The Bewitching Hour (A Tara Prequel)
In this Buffy the Vampire Slayer prequel, fan-favorite and LGBTQIA+ icon Tara Maclay gets the main character treatment . . . whether she wants it or not.
Tara Maclay isn’t thrilled to be in a new town for her senior year of high school. She misses her mom, her garden, her magic—and the way her dad treated her before her mom passed. But if Tara can just keep her head down, then maybe she can make it through this year in Hellborne, Vermont without the town living up to its name.
Of course, her plan falls apart immediately, as dead students start turning up around her, and she’s suddenly voted Most Likely To Have Murdered Them by the rest of the senior class. Oh, and the fellow new girl Tara’s crushing on? Turns out to be a witch-hunter. . . . So maybe it’s not the worst thing that Tara’s magic is majorly malfunctioning.
