Spellbound Book 1: Entangled - February 20th 2012Two months after dying, seventeen-year-old witch Graylee Perez wakes up in her twin sister Charlene’s body.Until Gray finds a way back inside her own body, she’s stuck being Charlene every twenty-hour hours. Her sister has left precise instructions on how Gray should dress and behave. Looking like a prep isn’t half as bad as hanging out with Charlene’s snotty friends and gropey boyfriend.The “normals” of McKinley High might be quick to write her behavior off as post-traumatic stress, but warlock Raj McKenna is the only person who suspects Gray has returned from the dead.
Spellbound Book 2: Duplicity - March 20th 2012
If Graylee Perez thought sharing a body with her twin sister was bad, dealing with a duplicate of herself is two times worse. Gray the second doesn’t seem to get that Lee’s boyfriend, Raj McKenna, is off limits. Then there’s the problem of Adrian Montez. He expects one of the Grays to be his.
Nearly a year later, the council is onto them for past misdeeds; Lee, along with the rest of the coven, has lost control of her powers; and Gray is being stalked by what looks like the Grim Reaper.
If they work together, they may stand a chance of setting things right and making it out alive.
Spellbound Book 3: Enchantment - April 2013
In the third and final installment of the Spellbound series, Graylee Perez (the duplicate), goes to Spain for a summer of escape. There she meets new friends and comes face to face with her old adversary, Adrian Montez.
When Gray tries to setup a spell that will banish Adrian from her life, she inadvertently falls under a love spell instead.
Charlene returns, having hijacked a new body, for one final battle between the twins.

Spellbound Soundtrack
ENTANGLED
(S1)
Magic
Dance by David Bowiefrom Labyrinth
This song has
haunted my brain throughout the series. Plus David Bowie reminds me of warlock
Adrian Montez minus the 80’s hair and tight pants…well, let’s keep the tight
pants.
Lightning by The Wanted
Raj McKenna
steals the show in Entangled. He is the ultimate bad boy with a good heart, and
fiercely loyal to Gray. I stumbled upon this YouTube video and have watched it
at least a dozen times all while thinking of Raj. Yeah, baby!
DUPLICITY (S2)
Within
Youand As The World Falls Downby David Bowiefrom
Labyrinth
Adrian’s
obsession with Gray reminds me of the Goblin King’s fixation on Sarah. At the
end of book one Adrian risks his own life to ensure she doesn’t disappear. In
book two his feelings intensify, but are harshly rejected. Sorry, Adrian, you
have no power over Gray.
Bad
Romance by
Lady Gaga
The confusion spell
Gray puts over Adrian requires her to speak gibberish the entire time. She
starts singing “Rah, rah, ah, ah, ah; Roma, roma, ma; Gaga, ooh, la, la,” then
accidently busts into the Bad Romance lyrics.
ENCHANTMENT (S3)
Barcelona by Giulia y Los Tellarini from
the Vicky Christina Barcelona soundtrack
Love is in the
air. Gray heads to Barcelona for the summer, meets the sexy Spaniard Carlo,
wards off the attentions ofthe polite British Will, runs into Adrian and unwittingly
falls head over heels for her arch nemesis. It’s all good fun!
Les
Triplettes de Belleville from the French
animation movie soundtrack
Charlenenabs herself
a new body in Paris, shows up in Spain, much to Gray’s annoyance, and requests
her help dealing with a stalker. I like to call this one The “Twins” of
Belleville.

Hi! I welcome comments and feedback! But because I suck at HTML code, I don't know how to add reply button to each comment (I tried googled it but I think this template doesn't allow such change), so I will be very lousy at keeping track of the comments but it doesn't mean that I don't appreciate your comments! ^_^
