Book Description

Elly Blair welcomes the chance to escape her ex-fiance and job from hell when Grandma Imelda, ready to retire to sunny Florida, calls for her to take over her little southern cafe.

Elly has no idea her grandmother has baked up magic for the unsuspecting townsfolk for thirty years–and now Grandma Imelda insists that Elly use her own hitherto unsuspected magical powers to carry on the family tradition.

But Elly’s new at this stuff. Her dishes don’t turn out as full of smidgens of enchantment and dashes of wishes come true as she’d hoped. When handsome customer Rory Covington takes a bite of the wrong burger, he ends up capturing the attention of every woman in town. Elly doesn’t know if her feelings for Rory are true or based on her magic gone awry.

Tom Owenton is an investigator the National Organization for Magic sent to look into the magical mishap. Unless Elly can reverse the spell, the cafe will be closed permanently. Tom is more than willing to help Elly out of this magical pickle, but she’s not sure she should accept his offer.

Elly only has forty-eight hours to find a way to reverse the spell, or she’ll lose the cafe and never discover if her feelings for Rory are real.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Little Magic Never Hurts...Right? June 10, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Unless the spell goes to a hunky guy it wasn't intended to. Then all bets are off. There are actually two hunky guys, a crazy ex, and a girlfriend anybody would want to be friends with. Elly had moved off to New York to be with her boyfriend. Her grandma called her home to take over the cafe so she could retire. An offer that she wasn't sure of but that was better than staying in New York with the boyfriend. What grandma left out until the last minute was the magic that she put into the food. The magic that Elly was now suppose to put in the food. With very little instruction, within 24 hours Elly finds herself in trouble.
This was a fun read. It is clean so you do not have to worry about teen reading. Let's face it, even when it is marketed for teens, the book is sometimes more than you want them to read. Not so In Rose Pressey's book. While alluding to normal feelings Mrs. Pressey leaves out the steamy scenes and manages a nice balance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Paula Deen + Bewitched = One great read!!! June 12, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Clumsy Elly Blair can't wait to leave New York City in the dust after catching her rat boyfriend in THEIR bed with someone else. She jumps at the chance to come home to Grandma Imelda's cafe so Granny can retire. As Grandma is walking out of the cafe that she has just turned over to Elly she lets Elly in on one last little thing, Grandma Imelda has magical powers that she bakes into her homemade goodies and Elly, as the only family member to have any magic ability, must continue the spells to keep the town happy and unsuspecting. One catch, don't lose the spell book or Granny's magic spices.
Too bad Granny didn't tell her to make sure that the spells make it to the person she crafted it for. New hottie in town, a rancher named Rory, accidentally takes a bite of the wrong burger. Now he has women chasing after him like he is the last man on earth including his high maintenance ex-girlfriend, Kim. Are Elly's feelings for him real or part of the spell gone wrong??

Enter Tom Owenton, investigator from the National Organization for Magic sent to close down the cafe and maybe even take the magic away from Elly. Tom is pretty easy on the eyes and seems to find Elly very attractive. Things get all twisty with both men, at least she has a wonderful best friend working at the cafe and getting her nose in all the problems that creep Elly's way. Sometimes having a gossip hound for a best friend really really helps!!

So who would you chose??? Will Elly keep the cafe???? Can Elly keep a hold of her powers??? Will she mess up again???

Rose Pressey is quickly becoming my new favorite writer (new to me at least)!! Her books are great (not to mention easy on the checkbook!) and have wonderful humor without losing the plot. All of her stories that I've read are wonderful romances with some paranormal thrown in. Wonderful recipe in my opinion!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Full of spice! June 4, 2011
By Wendy
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I couldn't put this book down. I stayed up into the wee hours to finish this book and was glad I did. Elly takes over her grandma's cafe and is expected to continue on the family business....but Elly isn't so sure she can do it and when there is a mistake with a customer's order, well all hell breaks loose. I loved the story and would recommend this light romance to all.
