Product Description

After spending most of her life single-practically an occupational hazard for a witch-Bronwyn's finally found a sexy warlock to love. But it's going to take more than a few love spells to keep him from getting jealous about her latest gig-protecting a rock star named Zane from the creepy Goth guys in cloaks who keep showing up at his concerts and zapping his mojo. Bronwyn would like nothing better than to blow them up in an inferno of Love That Red smoke, but they're proving elusive. And in the meantime-what girl wouldn't want to hang with the hottest man in music?

5.0 out of 5 stars amusing fantasy, September 9, 2006

By	Harriet Klausner - See all my reviews (#1 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

After saving the life of the English Prime Minster, but almost at the cost of her beloved Sam (see CHARMED AND DANGEROUS), witch Bronwyn wants some quality time with her boyfriend even if Sweet, Texas is sweltering in the August heat. However, the Prime Minister has asked Bronwyn to protect a friend, rock and roll star Zane. Sam is unhappy but duty calls so she leaves him in the states to journey to Bournemouth, England on what she assumes will prove a tedious assignment.

However, Bronwyn may wield some powerful magic, but her forecasting skills prove inept. First the paparazzi are everywhere and catch her in unfortunate seemingly compromised positions. When she calls Sam to explain, he refuses to speak to her or call her back. These nasty photographers crawl from under every rock and are always underfoot even when Bronwyn battles against Goth-clad demons who either want to take Zane to the dark side or eliminate a pest of a witch who has thwaredt their plans.

This sequel follows the further escapades and misadventures (at least in love) of heroic witch Bronwyn, as she battles evil demons who want her dead. Bronwyn's first hand account is fun to follow as her asides add humor to the fantasy mix. Fans needing a haven to escape the mundane will want to read the exploits of the CHARMED AND READY super witch as she battles evil while pondering whether demons or paparazzi are the bigger threat to her well being.

2.0 out of 5 stars White witch :1 Credibility factor : 0, June 19, 2009

This review is from: Charmed & Ready (Paperback)

I have not read any of this author's books before, this one definitely would not make me want to rush out to buy the next in the series, I liked the premise of magic and weapons but neither the heroine or the so called love of her life were particularly inspiring,
she almost dies fighting a demon but the boyfriend is in a jealous snit so he never calls her, comes back after she is saved claims he was away and the battery in his cell was dead( I guess there were no landlines or payphones) and instead of dropkicking his miserable butt through the window, she proceeds to try and make him feel better via oral sex over the next few pages, excuse me while I puke.

4.0 out of 5 stars An enjoyable read, January 25, 2008

This review is from: Charmed & Ready (Bronwyn the Witch, Book 2) (Paperback)

An enjoyable and fanciful read. The creativeness of the story line and enwrapping of the magic world with the "mortal" world is almost believable. I've got all in this series and each is a unique story.
