Who knew love with a little magic could be so sweet? Christina Jones's book is another in her series about mad villages where magic is possible. In Love Potions, Sukie, an aroma therapist who was mentioned in the previous book, Seeing Stars, is the main heroine of the story. She comes across a naked man in her bad upon her return from an aromatherapy convention. Come morning, she finds out this hunk of a man belongs to Milla, her glamorous room mate, therefore making him unavailable to her.

When her best friend Chelsea accidentally gives her expensive oils to Fern and Tim, who are on their way to get married, Sukie has to prepare a new set of oils from real ingredients, which have surprising results on the villagers.

I liked how quickly the book flowed and how it wasn't all about Sukie. The good thing about Christina Jones's books are that they are nothing like any of the other books I've seen which deal with a village and its inhabitants. You don't have the bonkfests and all sorts of nasty intrigue going on. I'm not saying that the stories are bland or that there aren't some going ons, but its not every character. Christina Jones just has a way of writing that whisks me away into whatever village she's writing about.
