Hot Hex Boyfriend

Bloom (Must Love Cowboys) successfully mixes Southern charm with magic in her first foray into the paranormal. Delia Merriweather has been told all her life that she is a blue witch with power over love and matters of the heart. Under the blue moon on her 30th birthday, she will finally come into power—or she would if her family were able to access their magic. Unfortunately, the Merriweathers have been hexed into powerlessness, and, with no proof of the mystical, 29-year-old Delia has stopped believing in magic altogether. As her birthday approaches, she struggles to balance her family’s eccentricities with public opinion in small town Willow Root, Tex. Meanwhile, Max Halifax, her hot new next-door neighbor and a witch in his own right, has been sent to Willow Root from the hidden magical realm of Shadowlark to watch the Merriweather women and ensure the hex holds. If Delia manages to break the spell, magical mayhem will ensue and Max will no longer be able to tell if his growing feelings for her are true or the result of her blue witch powers. Bloom creates a whimsical and enchanting world in Willow Root and conjures some real chemistry between her leads. Fans of Practical Magic and Sabrina, the Teenage Witch will be hooked. (Sept.)
