Jane Madison loves her job as a research librarian, including the hot looking Jason Templeton who visits the library nearly everyday. But she knows a handsome man like Jason won’t notice a quiet person like herself. Then when she moves into the house on the library grounds, she discovers a secret room containing a rather unique library. After reading aloud a few words from one of the books, she awakenes a witch’s familiar and soon became immersed in a world of magic. She begins her course of study by casting basic spells such as one which causes men to fall in love with her. Soon chaos reigns as Jane finds herself fighting off the attention of several nice men, including Jason, and now she wonders if using her newly discovered talents is worth the headaches.
Mindy created a funny collection of characters which will keep you laughing and she gave Jane enough challenges to keep her going in a dozen directions at once. Unlike most chick-lit books, Jane is capable and relatively confident, which makes for a refreshing change of pace. The book doesn’t dwell a lot on the witchcraft, which makes this a good book for someone who hasn’t made up their mind about paranormal stories. I really enjoyed it and I think you might too.
