Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Perennial New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts's new Three Sisters Island trilogy is pure magic. An intriguing combination of The Witches of Eastwick and Sleeping With the Enemy, Dance Upon the Air introduces readers to the idyllic town of Three Sisters Island. Reputedly conjured by a trio of sisters seeking to escape the Salem witch-hunts, the island remains a place of quiet refuge for one and all, including pretty Nell Channing who arrives in town afraid of her own shadow, with few possessions and no past. But the warm, sunny days and cool, windswept nights, as well as the loving concern of new friends--especially hunky sheriff Zack Todd--soon lure skittish Nell into a much-welcome fresh life. Nell's new boss, the captivatingly lovely bookstore owner Mia Devlin (look for Mia's story, hopefully, in the not-too-distant future), wonders from what or whom Nell is running. Mia treats Nell as she would a sister, which isn't too far off the mark, helping Nell discover and explore her inner resources while Zack's romantic attentions bring a rosy glow to Nell's cheeks and to her future. But something wicked this way comes... Will Nell be ready to face and conquer her past? Even with the love and support of Mia, Zack, and Zack's fellow police officer, his peppery, down-to-earth sister Ripley, Nell has the fight of her life--the fight for her life--on her hands. Roberts continues to delight fans and create new believers with her talent and imagination. --Alison Trinkle, Amazon.com

Nell Channing arrives in Three Sisters Island after escaping from her abusive husband some months before. After being on the run, she feels finally that she's found somewhere she can settle down, and maybe even build a life. She hopes it is a place where her husband will never come looking for her.
She just wants place to call her own, and she finds it on the island. But, she never envisioned that she would meet and fall in love, or that she had abilities of the magical variety.
This is the first book by Nora Roberts that I have read, and is the first book of the Three Sisters Island trilogy. I loved this book. It had a fluid easy reading style, and an assortment of characters which I couldn't help but love.
I loved the way witchcraft and magic was woven into the tale, enough to make it a little bit different, yet not too much that it overshadowed everything else. So if you want a cosy romance with just a sprinkling of magic, look no further.
Happy reading;)
