Everyone loves a Grandma.
Unless, of course, she's infected with a deadly contagious spell.

She's a witch hunting a spell. He's
hunting witches and falling for her.
Carman has
worn out more towns and last names than impractical shoes protecting the secret
of her magic blood. But when a friend goes missing, and another is infected
with a deadly spell, Carman must choose. Expose her magic blood by curing the
spell—or stop the infection from spreading by killing the source…the
grandmother.
Magic bounty
hunter Dylan has scoured libraries of banned magic paraphernalia seeking a
method to distinguish genuine witches from impersonators. He suspects
unorthodox librarian Carman might hold this information tighter than the hair
he’s dying to unleash from her bun. With a past as hidden as his sleeve of
tattoos, Dylan discovers he’s been used to gain Carman’s trust and their
passion risks more than mixing mortals and magic.

Excerpt
…once
she’d started Carman couldn’t stop,
the book
beckoned. Pressing its spine against her palm, begging her to search within the
pages to find the answers she’d unconsciously sought her entire life. As she
lifted the book, her scalp tingled and her hair elevated like a halo.
“Whoa.”
Dylan shielded himself with his hands. “Put it back, slowly, because this is
reminding me too much of the incident with the chest. Having my apartment blown
up from magic isn’t covered in my rent.”
The
plastic evaporated in a puff of smoke in Carman’s hands and the book unsealed
with a sigh. She smiled, the welcoming warmth emanating from within its pages
against her palms. Why had Mother kept her from this? This is what she’d been
waiting for.
As
curiosity overtook his common sense, she detected Dylan’s cautious approach. He
stood close enough to peer over her shoulder into her book, but far enough away
to avoid touching her.
After the
shockwave the last time their skin met, he probably worried he’d ruin another
pair of pants. Carman closed her eyes, absorbing the power from the book. The
delicious feeling evoked a sensation like melting chocolate, sweet and
satisfying.
“I
remember hearing about her, Esmeralda Wrath. I wonder if this was her book?”
Dylan’s warm breath caressed her shoulder.
Carman
opened her eyes and examined the page. To stare right at a photo of the most
powerful witch of all time…her grandmother.
