Meet Kira Smythe, a lawyer who finds out that coming home is about the best thing to happen among other things. After leaving Sweet,. Texas, Kira never thought to be back, sick and trying to find what to do with her life now that she had the rug thrown out from under her. Add in an unexpected inheritance, a sexy new love and some weird things going on, Kira finds that some things are better left to the heart and work LIKE A CHARM.


LIKE A CHARM was the first this reviewer read from this author and I was enthralled from beginning to end. It was a magical tale that captivates you and you get a sense of who Kira is and how she comes to grow within the pages as the story moves at an easy yet fast pace.

Meet Kira Smythe, a driven lawyer who found herself back home in the small town that she was quick to leave years before. Now she finds herself reconnecting with family, friends and seeing the town in a new light, especially when she finds herself inheriting the town library. Strong, independent and yet vulnerable, Kira definitely comes across as multifaceted and captures the readers’ hearts with her wit and spunkiness. Add in some wonderful and unique secondary characters, a sexy alpha hero and a mystery to boot and you got the makings of one heck of a storyline that is told in a way that will leave you scrambling for more from this author.

LIKE A CHARM is a wonderful story that will leave you breathless for more on the residents of Sweet, Texas and this reviewer is definitely going to check out this author’s other titles. If you enjoy magical characters, a swift moving storyline that draws you in and doesn’t let go until the last page is read, then grab LIKE A CHARM and see what fun Sweet, Texas can really be!
