Last year when The Wild Rose Press called for submissions for novellas based on a fictional Vermont Inn, the noise of mad scribbling and typing could be heard around the globe.  Not all of The Wild Rose Press authors live in the United States.  The story would be built around a quaint Vermont Inn nestled in a tiny town with lots of eclectic characters.

The novellas were to be based on holidays spent at the Inn and I chose Halloween.  I write some fantasy as well as suspense and children’s books, but the idea of Penny Winters, a modern-day witch, came to mind and I was hooked.

Penny Winters flees to her birthplace in Vermont to consider the marriage proposal she left behind in Salem. Complicating her already difficult decision, she is smitten when she encounters handyman Liam on the porch of the quaint Deerbourne Inn.

A modern-day wiccan, Penny intends to contact her distant great-grandmother, who died on the cliffs when Willow Springs held witch trials. Penny needs advice, and the best time to connect to her ancestors is on Halloween. But she is not the only witch in Willow Springs, and they both have their eye on the same man. And who is the old woman who keeps appearing, telling her to go home?

Penny comes to the cliff to seek Grandma’s advice. But Halloween is an important holiday for a witch, and she is not alone on the cliffs that night. Penny will have to battle not only for Liam’s attention, but for her life.

Witches’ Cliff became a finalist in the International Digital Awards through the Oklahoma chapter of the Romance Writers’ of America.  It was fun collaborating with all the other authors.  The novellas were to be e-published only and can be purchased electronically on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Witches-Cliff-Deerbourne-Peggy-Chambers-ebook/dp/B07PNK8QMT/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=witches%27+cliff+peggy+chambers&qid=1589753515&sr=8-1 for only $1.99.  Or if you really need to feel the paper, The Wild Rose Press has printed them for only $10.99 and you can purchase them on their website at https://www.thewildrosepress.com/product/witches-cliff
