The Midwife Book 2 Spellbound

Sometimes, distance is kept through obedience and precaution, but when destiny presents encounters... what happens? Nature has a way of connecting everything through words, a simple wave, a subtle nod, an ethereal thought, or an elusive touch. Add a small amount of prying curiosity and bits of delicate madness to destiny's wish and one can never tell what may come to pass. * 1960s Loma Parda: Superstitions and belief that ghosts, witches & magic exist was common and openly discussed among friends. They believed a myth which conveyed that the presence of a stork/la cigueña at the birth of a child brought either good or bad fortune and depended purely on the God-given choice of the stork. This created unrealistic views when Narcisia González was born in the presence of a stork. It sent superstitious minds soaring, and life-long neighbor and midwife, Doña Victoria's behavior from friendly to cruel towards their family. Doña Victoria's peculiar past, her actions, and innuendos about the family gave people of the community fodder for gossip. Her tittle-tattle did not go favorably for her. The opposite occurred. Everyone suspected she was a witch and blamed her for unexplained occurrences that took place way back when and since Narcisia's birth. The Midwife Book 2 Spellbound is the second of The Midwife Series by VG Gonzalez.
