OVER HEXED WILD & HEXY CASUAL HEX
To all the compassionate souls who spend their precious time and resources to save homeless pets, with special gratitude for the largest no-kill facility in the world, Best Friends Animal Society, where I spent a fulfilling week one memorable July.
Acknowledgments
As always, Im deeply indebted to the wonderful folks at Penguin for championing my cause, especially my editor, Claire Zion. Im grateful for the support of my agent, Robert Gottlieb, at Trident Media, and for the constant encouragement from my assistant/daughter, Audrey Sharpe and my brainstorming partners, Jennifer LaBrecque and Rhonda Nelson. Im also filled with wonder at the twists of fate that brought me in contact with Romance Writers of America and its founder, Rita Clay Estrada. Ritas vision transformed the romance landscape, and without RWA many of us, including me, might never have published a book. Thank you, Rita.
Chapter 1
The night Anica Revere turned Jasper Danes into a cat started out innocently enough.
Theyd dated for nearly three weeks, and tonight lust ping-ponged across the restaurant table. Anica had anticipated this moment since she first glimpsed this dark-haired Adonis with golden eyes. Although Monday wasnt a common date night, Jaspers favorite restaurant was open and he hadnt wanted to wait for the weekend to see her again. All the signs pointed to finally Doing It.
He studied Anica as if he wanted to lick her all over, which sounded great to her, except... she still hadnt mentioned a significant detail, one that could be a real buzz kill. She hadnt told him she was a witch.
With chemistry this strong she was so tempted not to tell him, but one mistake with a nonmagical man was enough. The image of Edward racing out of her bedroom a year ago still pained her.
He hadnt even bothered to grab his clothes. Sad to say, a Chicago police squad car had been cruising by the apartment building and poor Edward had been arrested using a Keep Lake Michigan Clean leaflet as a fig leaf substitute.
Shed heard all about it from her neighbor Julie, who kept a video camera running from her third-story window in hopes that shed get something worth airing on her brothers independent cable show, Not So Shy Chi-Town. That clip made it on the show, no problem. To avoid legal repercussions, Edwards features had been scrambled so no one except Julie and Anica knew who it was.
