THAT MAGIC TOUCH (Lake Shelbyville, Book 1)

Once their secrets are revealed, can love heal all?

Living in a small town, Mia Grey has a hard enough time keeping her own unique healing powers secret, never mind those of her thirteen-year-old sister, whose powerful telekinetic abilities grow stronger by the day. Mia’s discovered it’s not so easy keeping a moody teenage witch on the right path while working full-time in her convenience store/bait shop. And her pre-occupation with their gorgeous new neighbor certainly isn’t helping matters.

Jack Sutton spent seven years behind bars for a murder he didn’t commit. Longing for a family connection, he heads to Illinois in search of an aunt he’s never met. He rents an auto garage in the picturesque town of Shelbyville and just starts to settle in when late one night he’s stabbed in an apparent robbery. He wakes the following morning with a throbbing head and an aching gut. The good news is he’s alive. The bad news is he seems to have woken up in an episode of the Twilight Zone—with his beautiful neighbor in the starring role.

Excerpt:

“And what is it you think about out here all alone?”

The sexy timbre of his voice washed over her like a soothing rain. She shivered in response.

“Cold?” Misinterpreting her reaction, he closed the gap between them and wrapped his arms around her.

“A little.” The mid-sixties temps had nothing to do with her reaction to his nearness, but she had no intention of telling him that.

Mia had only ever been with one man, and he’d turned out to be a ginormous tool; an absolute error in judgment. Not only had he started cheating on her as soon as he got her into bed, but he’d also come damn close to discovering her and Kat’s secret. If Mia hadn’t immediately scrubbed his memory, she could only have imagined the headlines: Modern Day Witches Living in Middle America!

Plain and simple, her instincts sucked when it came to the opposite sex.

And right now, they screamed for her to run as fast as possible in the other direction. But her body dared her to snuggle into his warm embrace and enjoy the moment.

Which is exactly what she did.
