My pink Volkswagen dies right after, and I have to walk to the closest town—Evershift Haven. I’m stunned to see how all-out these folks go for Halloween to appeal to the tourists. I’m even more surprised by just how hot the orc mechanic promising to fix my car within a week is, but I imagine he’s a pasty geek under all that makeup and muscled bodysuit. Right?About that. Evershift Haven isn’t some gimmicky tourist town. Turns out, magic is real, and when their resident witch gets distracted, the barrier between their world and ours sometimes drops long enough for a lonely attorney who hates her job to slip through and discover magic awaits. And Throk isn’t some pasty geek. All those green muscles and drool-worthy body belong to him, my orc mechanic.I’m stuck in a place I never imagined could exist and having the time of my life. When it’s time to go back to the real world? I don’t want to think about that right now…This is the first book in a series about a magical town that shifts itself to celebrate seasons, holidays, and whatever random thing takes its fancy. It’s lighthearted, humorous, and meant to make you feel as cozy as wearing a sweater while sipping pumpkin spice latte. The story is sweet, but there’s definitely a pinch of steam. less
