HTML:<strong>"Propulsive and poignant, Black Candle Women concocts an intoxicating potion of warmth, wisdom, and wonder."</strong> <strong>—Ava DuVernay<br /> A warm and wry family drama with a magical twist about four generations of Black women, a family curse, and one very complicated year of heartache, miscommunication, and learning to let go.</strong><br /> Generations of Montrose women—Augusta, Victoria, Willow—have lived together in their quaint two-story bungalow in California for years. They keep to themselves, never venture far from home, and their collection of tinctures and spells is an unspoken bond between them.<br /> But when seventeen-year-old Nickie Montrose brings home a boy for the first time, their quiet lives are thrown into disarray. For the other women have been withholding a secret from Nickie that will end her relationship before it's even begun: the decades-old family curse that any person they fall in love with dies.<br /> Their surprise guest forces each woman to reckon with her own past choices and mistakes. And as new truths about the curse emerge, the family is set on a collision course dating back to a Voodoo shop in 1950s New Orleans's French Quarter—where a hidden story in a mysterious book may just hold the answers they seek in life and in love...<br /> <strong>"</strong><strong>Richly imagined and elegantly told, with plenty of satisfying secrets, heartaches, and twists.</strong><strong>"</strong><br /> <strong>—Sadeqa Johnson, international bestselling author of Yellow Wife and The House of Eve</strong>.
