Summary:
And you think beauty pageants are scary?
 
Persephone Alcmedi has been persuaded to compete for the position of High Priestess of the Cleveland, Ohio, coven — now that the former priestess, Vivian Diamond, has strangely gone missing. Unfortunately, there are a few small problems with the idea. Not only does Seph know rather more about Vivian's disappearance than the other witches realize, but the epic struggle she's just survived has left her with some highly unusual powers — ones that could be dangerous to reveal. Despite her reluctance, she agrees to participate, if only to prevent snooty Hunter Hopewell, an obnoxious but talented witch, from ending up in the winner's circle. Can Seph hide her secrets — including her connection to the master vampire-wizard Menessos — from the terrifyingly wise judges? Plus, there's her rock 'n' roll werewolf boyfriend, Johnny, and some angry fairies to deal with....
Once the competition begins, a finalist turns up dead. It looks as if one of the contestants is willing to do anything — including murder — to win. Suddenly Seph has even more on her plate than she thought: from solving a murder to working out what her new powers really are...and exactly why they're creating so much havoc in her love life.(Goodreads)

Review:
Hallowed Circle is the second installment in the Persephone Alcmedi series. This story picks up where book one left off——Seph's life falling into a routine after taking on the care of her Nana and her dead friend's daughter, Beverly. But routines do not last long when you are a witch tied to a vampire, and dating a hot werewolf! Seph has been nominated to participate in a contest to become the coven's new High Priestess, and takes on this new challenge to help out a friend, and beat out a less than worthy opponent, Hunter. While competing; there are murders, twists and turns, and an outcome no one would expect!

She also has some new issues to work out with her boyfriend and the vampire, Menessos——who you want to hate, but want to love at the same time! This was a great second book, and leaves you ready and wanting to venture into book 3....quickly! I am loving this new series and Ms. Robertson's take on the supernatural world. So I am off to read book 3, and find out what trials and tribulations Seph and her new friends face!
