Here's a probably new-to-you tale of a supernatural being from Latin American lore- La Cegua. She lures in cheating men with her beautiful body only to reveal that her face is the skull of a horse. E These Vengeful Wishes by @Vanessa Montalban, Author Two weeks from high school graduation, Cecilia "Ceci" Naverette, (not like the pizza place Cici's, but "Ceci, like cesspool") and her mother move from their cushy life in Miami to a creepy Victorian estate in the Floridian boonies. She quickly learns the town lore is that the house and the former residents were supposedly cursed by La Cegua. The male descendants of the town's founders, the Sevilla-Beckmann family all died before they turned 30. Just myth, right? But "sometimes myths come from buried truths." Ceci begins to hear someone's voice pulling her into the woods on the property hidden behind a stone wall. She discovers that she drew a sketch of the Sevilla grounds before even seeing it. And then there is the sleepwalking. What is waiting for her in the woods? Can her new friends help her get to the truth of the curse? Will a new discovery lead to granted wishes or at least some romance? And how does her mother fit into all this? These Vengeful Wishes by Vanessa Montalban is a suspenseful dark YA fantasy not to be missed. Thank you Hear Our Voices Tour and @Zando for the finished copy!
