Review:

This is the first book by Anya Bast I’ve read and I was pleasantly surprised. I assumed it was going to be mostly romance focused. But it

Bast’s characters and world building sucked me in and kept me interested. I couldn’t put the book down. I almost finished it in one sitting.

The main female character, Mira is trying to survive on her own after an ugly divorce from her cheating husband. She is working as a waitress trying to support herself, while trying to complete a college degree.

One night while she is at work she notices that the hot and mystery guy that she can’t take her mind off of is sitting at a table in her section. She goes to weight on him and as always he is quite and keeps his head down while reading and only ordering coffee. He has become a regular at the dinner and in her nightly fantasies.

Later that night at Mira apartment two men try to break down her door and Jack McAllistar, the hot guy from the dinner, comes to her aid. Mira passes out after she takes a blow to the head and then wakes up in a strange place…..Jack’s apartment.

Jack tells Mira about her heritage as a witch and of course she thinks he is crazy. But after he proves it to her, Jack becomes Mira’s teacher in magic and they begin to work together to figure out what her would be kidnappers want.

As Mira and Jack get closer their lust slowly becomes love in this great book by Anya Bast. I cannot wait to continue reading this series. has a great plot that I can see carry through to the end of the series.
