    A Witch’s Journey by Tena Stetler

    Genre Paranormal Romance/Mystery

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13

    Pepper McKay comes from a long line of powerful witches. Unfortunately, magic brings her nothing but trouble. She learned the love of wildlife rescue and rehab from her Aunt Ashling. After graduating from college, Pepper works for Salem Wildlife Sanctuary and lives from paycheck to paycheck until she inherits the McKay property in Lobster Cove. With the family land and resources, she dares to dream of starting her own wildlife rescue and rehabilitation center.

    Lathen Quartz, a former Navy SEAL turned handyman maintains the enchanted McKay property for the McKay estate. But someone is trying to steal the McKay magic. Lathen offers to help Pepper achieve her life-long dream of building a wildlife center. During the long hours spent together on the project, their mutual attraction can’t be denied. But each harbors a deep, dark secret. Will they overcome their demons and give love a chance?

    When someone dies, we say they “kicked the bucket.” Therefore, a list of things that a person wants to accomplish, places to go, situations to experience, and so on have become known as a “Bucket List.”

    Age: mid thirties

    Gender: Female

    Birthplace: East Coast

    Profession: Wildlife rehabilitator

    Ethnicity: Irish

    Please provide a physical description of yourself.

    My long red hair, wavy down to my waist gets tangled so badly sometimes, I consider cutting it real short. I always reconsider, tame my tresses in a braid, and feel better.

    Creamy complexion is the curse of the Irish. I sunburn easily and my face freckles if I don’t use strong sunscreen.

    Large emerald green eyes usually sparking with mischief have always been my best feature. Full kissable lips according to Lathen competes with my eyes. He also says I have way too much energy for one person, which accounts for my willowy build, being tall helps. Contrary to popular belief, my energy does run out. LOL My mom always thought my deep dimples and tinkling laugh set me apart from most.

    Please tell us a little about yourself.

    I’m the only child of two college professors. Both powerful witches. I spent my summers with my Aunt Ashlin in Lobster Cove, Maine. She taught me all there was to know about wildlife rescue. I worked in Salem, Massachusetts for ten years with Gwen who ran the place, until the magic storm on the anniversary of the Salem Witch Trials. But that’s a tale for another time. When my Aunt passed on, she left me the McKay property in Lobster Cove. It was enchanted, you know. Lathen Quartz was the maintenance man for the property. He’s a former Navy SEAL. He helped me bring my dream of building a wildlife rescue and rehab to fruition.

    Who is the significant other in your life? Lathen Quartz. He’s my best friend, soul mate and partner in Lobster Cove Wildlife Rescue and Rehab Center. I have to say he is swoon worthy with is muscular build, tousled surfer blond hair, bright aquamarine blue eyes and deeply tanned skin. He also has a great sense of humor.

    If you haven’t made a bucket list before, perhaps now would be a good time. Who knows? It might inspire another book. While you’re at it, how about telling us about some of your other favorite things? Here are the questions.

    What is your birth order?

    Only child.

    Tell us about your favorite toy as a child.

    Didn’t play with many toys. I was always bringing home injuried creatures and nursing them back to health. Other than that, I come from a long line of powerful witches. I spent a lot of my time honing those skills. When you have a young child able to conjure witch fire, you require constant supervision.

    Describe your favorite food and how it’s prepared.

    Pizza. Extra sauce, extra cheese and beef all around on a crispy crust.

    Tell us about your best friend.

    Gwen, she’s the owner of Salem Sanctuary. In Salem, MASS of course. We spend many a night with ailing creatures nursing them back to health of the ten years I spent at the Sanctuary. We are still very close, like family.

    What are two places you would like to visit before you die, and why?

    Australia — It is the home of so many unusual creatures. Some of these animals can only be found in Australia. I’d love to visit Australia Zoo.

    Hawaii — I’d love to stay in a cottage on the beach. Witness the sunrise, surf the warm waters then watch the sun set. Study the sea creatures around the islands. You know I have a degree in marine biology.

    Where is a place you would never like to return, and why?

    I can’t really think of any place I’ve been, and there haven’t been a lot, that I wouldn’t return.

    Who is someone you would like to meet, and why?

    Jacques Cousteau — Discuss his underwater investigations, discoveries and adventures.

    Steve Irwin — I’d love to discuss wildlife conservation and his experiences. Along with that, I’d love to meet his family Terri, Bindi and Robert Irwin chat about wildlife conservation, rescue and rehab.

    Who is someone you would like to avoid, and why?

    Politicians. They undermine the very fabric of all that is good and fair about this country. Don’t get me wrong, American is still the best country in the world, but we’ve taken a few wrong turns in recent years.

    If you could time travel to any date, what would it be, and what would you do there?

    I’d like to travel back to when my ancestors Aidan Duncan McKay and his wife Dusty McKay lived around 1693. I’ve love to visit with them, learn how the time period shaped them and their magic. There are a lot of misinformation swirling around about them, I’d like to clear up. They original built the cabin on the McKay property in Lobster Cover and wove love and magic throughout the land, as well as, the cabin. Of course through the years the cabin has been remodeled and built onto, but the original structure remains.

    From Tena Stetler

    Why did you choose this character for the interview today?

    Pepper is passionate about Wildlife Rescue and Rehab. Kind of a reflection of myself in many ways. Only I don’t have her energy, only wish I did. LOL

    Also she doesn’t let anything stand in her way and she’s driven to make her dreams come true.

    Are any sequels planned for this book? As a matter of fact, A Witch’s Holiday Wedding, Hidden Gypsy Magic (it’s Gwen’s story) and Chocolate Raspberry Magice are already out. I think you’ll enjoy the entire series.

    What genre(s) would you like to write that you haven’t tried yet? Still working on a cozy mystery series.

    What would your readers be surprised to learn about you?

    I was a radio DeeJay for a few years. Tough industry.

    Is there anything you’d like to say to your readers?

    I write the stories for you, my readers, to entertain, make a bad day better, and whisk you away from your world into a fantasy if only for a few hours. So I’d like to extend a very heartfelt THANK YOU to my readers!! You Rock!
