Tori Morgan has longed for a family to call her own. Her parents have been gone a long time and now her Great-aunt has recently died, leaving Tori determined to transform her inherited house into something more. Hiring contractor Nick Santangelo, Tori finds something much more in Nick and his family. With an enchanting summer by the Jersey Shore, can that magic called love find its way to two people who may be different on the surface but deep inside are perfect for each other?

A LITTLE LIGHT MAGIC is a wonderful blend of romance, magic and is perfect for an evening reading under the covers on your couch. Ms. Nash has a wonderful way of creating characters that seem flawed in the beginning but eventually the reader finds the “real” person inside them. With a masterful touch, this author delivers a story full of intriguing characters, a fast paced storyline and romance that builds up till it explodes across the pages.

Meet Tori Morgan, a woman alone in the world and when she inherits a house from her deceased great-aunt, she is determined to make her own new age shop, Destiny’s Gate. I loved the way Tori at first seems a little flakey and eccentric but when Nick walks onto the pages, you can feel the simmering attraction between the two even as they fight it with every breath. The characters are center stage in A LITTLE LIGHT MAGIC and Ms. Nash does a fine job in creating them all to appeal to her readers. With some wonderful secondary characters that keep the story flowing smoothly, Ms. Nash keeps the reader in suspense as Tori and Nick find themselves falling in love on the Jersey Shore.

A LITTLE LIGHT MAGIC is a light, fun novel that is character driven and keeps the reader highly entertained from start to finish. Ms. Nash a talented storyteller who manages to captivate the reader with characters that will capture your heart. I hope Ms. Nash goes back to the Jersey Shore in the future as I would love to know more on Nick’s family. They had me laughing over their antics. If you haven’t checked out A LITTLE LIGHT MAGIC, then run to grab it from your local library or bookstore. It is a wonderful gem that will keep you on your toes even as you laugh over the characters antics.

THIS IS NOT AN ENDORSEMENT OF THIS BOOK. THIS IS AN OBJECTIVE UNBIASED REVIEW.
