84) Blonde with a Wand by Vicki Lewis Thompson

The Blurb :

Sexy witch Anica Revere has one rule: never under any circumstances get involved with a man before telling him she's a witch. Still, what's one silly rule? Especially when the guy in question is as cute as Jasper Danes. But when Anica and Jasper have a spat, she breaks an ever bigger rule of witchcraft and turns him into a cat. Bad news for him. Worse for her...

My Review :

I don't believe I have ever read anything by this author before but I have had a few of her books on my wishlist/bookshelf for a while. This one was actually on my bookshelf gathering dust when I picked it up for a read-a-thon I took part in over the weekend. The cover looked fun and I was in the mood for something a little more girly and romantic. I definitely picked the right book when I reached for Blonde with a Wand!

This wasn't chick-lit paranormal but more paranormal romance. It was clear from the start that things were going to go wrong between Anica and Jasper but I didn't expect the level headed witch to turn him into a cat. Despite thinking that the author couldn't keep the cat thing going for the whole book, she did! Was it boring or repetitive? No! It was actually pretty fun and very cute. I enjoyed it!

The romance wasn't too over the top and there were a few hot scenes to keep things interesting. The plot did mainly revolve around the couple but there were some other nice characters included to stop me getting bored with their story. I especially liked the neighbour and sister. Also the witch aspect was pretty cool and there were hints of other paranormals around. I wonder if there will be more about this in future books?

Now I am looking forward to reading the second (and only?) book in the Babes on Brooms series which I believe is about Anica's sister. I already added it to my wishlist as well as the first in the series about the other two witches who helped Anica solve her problem. It seems they already have their own series. Looking forward to checking out more books by this author.
