When
a series of failed relationships and business ventures have Monica Jackson
doubting her self-worth, she turns to spell casting to attract positive energy
and the opportunities needed to achieve her goals. But can Monica’s belief in spells restore her
belief in herself?
Monica
creates a spell to find her soul mate, and one to ensure the success of her new
romantic event planning company, Enhance Your Romance. Monica is confident she has found her niche
until divorce lawyer Reed Walker opens a practice next door to her office. The anti-marriage slogan plastered on his
office window, and his down-on-love clients, quickly prove detrimental to
Monica’s business. When his arrival
appears to trigger a string of bad luck, Monica fears one of her spells sent
negative energy into the universe and it has returned to her threefold. Although Reed is beyond sexy, and she admires
his self-confidence, she’ll do whatever it takes to get the universe back on
her side, and Reed out of her life. No way is she losing another business.
Reed
finds himself attracted to Monica’s beauty and her optimism. His job and his
parents’ divorce have made him a pessimist, especially when it comes to love.
However, he soon finds that Monica’s pro-love attitude is rubbing off on him,
causing him to lose his edge. If Reed
doesn’t distance himself from Monica, he’ll likely destroy his reputation as a
pit bull divorce lawyer.
Can
Monica and Reed look past what they might be losing to realize the love they
have found?
Teaser Excerpt:
“A spell … ” Hope mused, then her face lit up.
“If there’s a spell to attract a man to a woman, there must be one to repel
women from a man. Right?”
“Spells
shouldn’t involve negative energy. Sending out negative energy can cause it to
return threefold. They aren’t intended to harm someone or make them do
something against their will.” Jordan had
drilled this into her head.
“I
wouldn’t be making Kyle do anything against his will. I’d be warning women to
stay away from him.”
Sounded
borderline.
“Please,”
Hope whined, picking a clump of batter from her long, wavy hair.
Monica
let out a defeated groan. “All right.” Hope would never actually cast the spell
anyway. When they were young, Hope refused to wear a Casper costume
for Halloween because she didn’t believe in ghosts. She was closed-minded when
it came to paranormal or New Age beliefs. And you had to truly believe in a
spell for it to work.
Monica
set down the bowl of salt and grabbed a pencil and pad of paper off her desk
and handed them to Hope. “Write this down. It’s called,” she tapped a hot pink
nail against her lip, “the dirtbag spell. Take one of Kyle’s socks, fill it
with dirt, and add a photo of him. It’s critical you aren’t in the photo.”
Monica paced, tightening the sash on her lavender silk robe. “Include something
of his like … ”
“His
new Rolex?”
Personally,
Monica would list the watch on eBay and pray for a bidding war. But Hope, no
matter how ticked off, was too timid to sell Kyle’s precious watch, and too
frugal to risk damaging it by mixing it with dirt.
“That’s
fine. Sew up the sock and bury it in your front yard. It’ll warn all women he’s
a dirtbag.”
Hope
poised the pencil against her lower lip, reviewing the spell. “Don’t I have to
say something when I bury it, like a chant?”
What
happened to being spell ignorant?
“Bury
it in the moonlight while saying … ” Monica scrambled for a few rhyming lines,
“moonlight, glowing bright, warn all women in your sight, the man who lives in
this house, is a dirtbag and a total louse.”
“Perfect.”
Hope sprang from the bed, looking inspired. “Kyle’s at work. I’m going over to
the house right now to bury that sock.” She turned and marched out, a woman on
a mission.
Monica
nibbled nervously on her fingernail. Hope wouldn’t seriously go through with
casting the spell, would she? A big part of spell casting was psychological,
focusing all your energy on making something happen. Monica had never seen Hope
look so determined, or vindictive. Hopefully, if she did cast the spell the
negative energy didn’t return threefold.
What
was the worst that could happen?

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Eliza Daly’s first attempt
at creative writing was in fourth grade. She and her friends were huge
Charlie’s Angels fans and she would sit in her bedroom at night writing scripts
for them to act out at recess the following day. She was Kelly Garrett. Fast
forward to the present, she’s still writing stories about beautiful women who
always get their men. The journey from fourth grade script writer to published
author wasn’t an easy one, but it was always an adventure and the final
destination was well worth it.
When Eliza isn’t traveling
for her job as an event planner, or tracing her ancestry roots through Ireland,
she’s at home in Milwaukee working on her next novel, bouncing ideas off her
husband Mark, and her cats Quigley and Frankie.

The cover reminded me a bit of a TV show Married to a witch, I think. Will there be magic in this book?

Is this a rom-com or does the book has paranormal elements?

I hope it's a rom-com with some humor in it. Those are my favorites.

Lena--Monica casts spell, but if they really have any power is left to the reader's imagination. I wouldn't say she possesses magical powers.
Anas-It's a rom com, definitely not a paranormal read.
Thanks for popping by everyone!
I was wondering about the magic myself :)
