Welcome

If you check out my “About Me” tab above, you’ll see that once upon a time, three of my favorite shows were Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, and Quincy, MD. A strange combination to be sure, but I’m not exactly normal (don’t tell anyone).

When I decided to take on another mystery series, it was natural for me to call on these old favorites, and soon Darcy Merriweather was born. She’s the star of the Wishcrafter Mysteries (shh, don’t tell that to her dog Miss Demeanor, aka Missy). Darcy’s a witch who has the ability to grant wishes. Oh, there are all kinds of rules and regulations (which she quickly has issues with) to her new craft, but the one thing she never expected was to be involved in a murder investigation. Magic, mayhem, murder—all my favorites. Is it no wonder I’m having a blast writing the series? The first book, It Takes a Witch, debuted in January. Isn't the cover wonderful? The second book, A Witch Before Dying, will be out in August 2012.

Thanks for coming by—I hope you’ll poke around to check out all twenty-eight things you may not know about me, learn all about my alter ego, and also keep up with me regularly through my blog, my Facebook page, or on Twitter.

Happy reading!

KUDOS FOR IT TAKES A WITCH:

"A bewitching tale that will quickly cast a spell on you."

-Lori's Reading Corner

"It Takes a Witch is an absorbing, entertaining, 

fast-paced — not to mention hilarious – cozy. 

Blake wields a charming blend of laugh-out-loud moments, electrifying mystery 

components, enchanting paranormal elements, heart-thumping romance,

 vivacious characters, and an energetic plot."

-Diane Morasco, Blogcritics.org

"Wow! Ms. Blake has taken the paranormal mystery 
to a whole new fun yet intriguing level. 

Extremely likable characters (and familiars), an ‘enchanted’ setting, overlapping 

puzzle pieces, and an engaging plot are only a part of it.

To sum it all up, this story is intriguingly mysterious, whimsical, delightful, and cleverly crafty. Sounds like an odd combination but I’m telling you, 
Heather Blake makes it work and I want more!"
