Illusion (Heirs of Watson Island, Book 3)
by Martina Boone
Simon & Schuster, Simon Pulse
Oct 25, 2016
Caged by secrets all around her and haunted by mistakes that have estranged her from Eight Beaufort, Barrie Watson is desperate to break the curse that puts her family in danger—without breaking the beautiful magic that protects Watson’s Landing. To do that, she must heal the rifts that have split the families of the island apart for three hundred years, unravel the mystery of the Fire Carrier and the spirits he guards, and take control of forces so deadly and awe-inspiring they threaten to overwhelm her.
With the spirits that cursed Watson Island centuries ago awake and more dangerous than ever, she finds an unlikely ally in the haunting and enigmatic Obadiah, whose motivations and power she still can’t read—or trust. His help comes at a price, however, plunging Barrie into a deadly maze of magic and wonder, mystery and intrigue that leads through history to places she never imagined she could go.

HAVEN’T READ COMPULSION YET?
Compulsion (Heirs of Watson Island, Book 1)
by Martina Boone
Simon & Schuster, Simon Pulse
Oct 28, 2014
Three plantations. Two wishes. One ancient curse.
All her life, Barrie Watson has been a virtual prisoner in the house where she lives with her shut-in mother. When her mother dies, Barrie promises to put some mileage on her stiletto heels. But she finds a new kind of prison at her aunt’s South Carolina plantation instead—a prison guarded by an ancient spirit who long ago cursed one of the three founding families of Watson Island and gave the others magical gifts that became compulsions.
Stuck with the ghosts of a generations-old feud and hunted by forces she cannot see, Barrie must find a way to break free of the family legacy. With the help of sun-kissed Eight Beaufort, who knows what Barrie wants before she knows herself, the last Watson heir starts to unravel her family's twisted secrets. What she finds is dangerous: a love she never expected, a river that turns to fire at midnight, a gorgeous cousin who isn't what she seems, and very real enemies who want both Eight and Barrie dead.

"Beautifully written, with vivid characters, a generations-old feud, and romance that leaps off the page, this Southern ghost story left me lingering over every word, and yet wanting to race to the compelling finish." — Megan Shepherd, Author of THE MADMAN'S DAUGHTER

Grieving the death of her godfather and haunted by her cousin Cassie’s betrayal, Barrie returns from a trip to San Francisco to find
the Watson plantation besieged by reporters and ghost-hunters. Some are hoping
to see the ancient spirit who sets the river on fire each night, while others
are chasing rumors of a stolen shipment of Civil War gold that may be hidden at
Colesworth Place. Chaos descends as Cassie hires a team of archeologists to
excavate beneath the mansion ruins. But more is buried there than treasure.
A mysterious, magical man appears at Watson’s Landing, claiming the key to the Watson and Beaufort gifts and
the Colesworth curse also lies beneath the mansion. With a mix of threats and
promises, he engages Barrie and Cassie in a midnight visit, but the spell he
conjurs has potentially deadly consequences.
While Barrie and dreamy Eight Beaufort struggle to make sense of
the escalating danger and their growing feelings for each other, Barrie has to
figure out not only whom to trust, but which gift is more reliable—Eight’s or her own. With millions of dollars and the fate of the
founding families at stake, she must choose between what she feels deep in her
heart and what will keep her loved ones safe.
