A Kind of Magic
Part-time witch, full-time glamorous high-flyer Esme Mcleod rubs
shoulders with celebrities for a living, has a sort-of-boyfriend ...and
just enough magic in her fingertips to solve life's little irritations;
why shouldn't she cast a little spell to catch the busy barman's
attention, or to summon a latte to aid her all-nighters? Called back to
her small Scottish home town and meddling family, stiletto-clad Esme is
way out of her comfort zone... But Esme must embrace her abilities as a
witch, or watch her family lose their beloved cafe. Except Esme has
never claimed to be a whizz at witchcraft, and her charms are starting
to go awry - she certainly never meant to cast a love spell on her
ex-boyfriend Jamie! It's time for urgent lessons in magic as well as
love - it seems there's only so much that muttering a few words over
cupcake batter will fix... From Goodreads.A cute read. Also a bit of suspense but not too much. I like witches, I like Scotland (though apart from being told it is set in Scotland, it doesn't feel very Scottish) and I liked this story. I will most likely pick up the second book in the series and hope the author shows us a bit of Edinburgh.
