Hocus My Pocus by Chandelle LaVaun & Megan Montero

 These two are a mess. Neither one know how to stay somewhere for very long. For Indi it runs in the family her mom could barely stay home when her youngest reached a certain age. Indi ended up raising her sister. She took on several jobs so she could get paid under the table. At times they were barely able to afford rent. One summer Indi begged her mother for a break. Her mom told her she would stay home for the summer & watch her sister. This was the summer Indi fell in love & she was so sure this was the guy she wanted to be with forever. However, fate was cruel to her. When she brought him home to meet her mother & sister no one was there. Turns out her mom had lied. She sent her sister to a summer camp in Colorado. Her sister is Torren. She startled easily & then takes forever to calm down. And since they were living in the human realm Torren going to a human camp was a terrible idea! Indi had to go to Colorado then track her sister down because she had runaway from camp. When she found her she was practically starving to death. From then on she decided to never leave her sister with her mom. After Torren got to be a certain age Indi takes her to Megelle Island to see if shifters could help with her shifting. And if not at least she would be safe because there were no humans there. And then Indi starts her adventures in the human realm. 


While she is gone she meets a guy in a travel group online. They start chatting & the next thing you know they become best friends. They keep trying to meet but fate is unkind. They both think the other person is human. Indi finally comes home after two years of not seeing her little sister. Just in time to see her sister in the parade.


Will Bow is returning home after being gone for longer than anticipated. Will takes pictures & writes books about traveling for humans & supernaturals. He writes under a pen name. Indi thinks his name is Liam. They both head home for Spooky season. Halloween celebrated over a longer period of time. You would think with a family like the Bows that Will would want to be home more. However, what he comes home to sure makes him want to flee again. He catches his family in the kitchen making him a profile on the supernatural dating app. He watches for awhile before he shuts them down. He also came home for his adopted brother, Bash's first ever birthday party. 


Torren's antics really make this book. Of course, you can't leave out the shenanigans of Jimbo & Sal!
