Holiday Cozy

I wear many hats. I'm a friend. A sort-of girlfriend. A ghostwriter, and...oh yeah, a witch. My editor always tells me to “write what you know.” Unfortunately, that’s what’s happening...literally. When the main character in my latest novel - a witch herself - takes a new job with the Magical Bureau of Investigators, she stumbles upon a threat so big, it could destroy everything she holds dear. Fiction, right? Nope. For reasons beyond my witchy sixth sense, everything I write is now happening to me in real life!

Juliet finds herself more and more drawn to Michael. It's more than a holiday affair, she knows that now. If a man can take time with her family and not blame her for it, she feels he's a keeper.

She isn't sure if she can let herself believe again, now.

Is there such a thing called fate? Does fate give you second chances in love? Juliet feels like she didn't really get a first chance. Her first marriage was a disaster.

She didn't think her heart could handle having her trust broken again.

Juliet and Michael seem to have found their way to each other. But love is never that easy. To love Juliet, Michael must tolerate her family, who treated him shamefully. To protect Juliet, Michael might need to break her trust and do something for which she might not forgive him.
