"I must confess," Allegra whispered as they danced, "You've been on my mind, too. I kept thinkng what it would be like to feel you...to hold you close to me."

Kate wanted to speak, to say something more, but there seemed to be no good reason to interrupt the fine and private conversation in which their bodies were now engaged. She sensed Allegra's arousal, growing acutely aware of her own, as the witch pressed her breast, then her stomach into Kate's, her body gyrating almost imperceptibly beneath the slipping and sliding fabric of her black dress. For a moment, the party, the voices, the people ceased to exist: only the music was left, the rhythm of the woman in her arms, and the secret promise of love to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Enchanted Evening, September 28, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Love Spell (Paperback)

"Love Spell" is an intoxicatingly romantic story set in a mystical, wooded winter landscape, deep and full of secrets. The home of the alluring, seductive and mysterious Allegra, it nurtures and restores her peace of mind. It is here, on Halloween, that she seeks rescue from her loneliness and isolation, and risks meeting the beautiful veterinarian, Kate Gallegher. It is through Kate, who lives in a small, nearby village, that we get a sense of the pleasures of bonding with nature and animals as she explores the woods, and skillfully and sensitively treats her patients. A lively plot, spare writing, and a sense of humor make this a smart, sexy, and compassionate book as the love story between Allegra and Kate unfurls. Williams, always a thoughtful writer, invites the reader to a tantalizing sexual fantasy, symphonic in its building of a delicious life-like tension. As Kate's and Allegra's worlds cross, and as Kate meets Allegra's friends, the reader is challenged to find each person's inner beauty and common humanity. Touching many themes, "Love Spell" is a vivid, thought-provoking book; an engrossing read for anyone in love...or wishing to be.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!, September 29, 2003

This review is from: Love Spell (Paperback)

I loved this book the minute I began reading it. I could not pit this book down. I am a lover of all lesbian novels but this one by far is my favorite. Its about time someone write a book about sci fi lesbian fiction. I never read books twice but for this one I WILL make an exception.
