A Little Night Magic

Lynn Braden

Olivia has been living in Nodaway Falls, New York all of her life with her friends Peach, Millie and Stacy. Waitressing in Crazy Cousin Betty's Waffle House has put her in the center of community gossip and given her unrequited love for the cook, Tobias. Just as Olivia makes the decision to leave Nodaway and find a new life somewhere in Europe, Davina Granville stops in the restaurant and does something to Olivia with an old sweat sock that leaves her feeling tingly especially in her hands and arms. When Davina tells Olivia that she has unknown magic powers and that someone is out to steal them from her, Olivia thinks that Davina is crazy, but things start happening that Olivia can't easily explain, and she begins to wonder what the truth really is.

A Little Night Magic is a cute rom-com that includes the charm of a small town with the addition of fantasy through magic. The characters are fun and easy to like, but some of the secondary characters are not well developed, however this does not detract from the enjoyment of the book. The light, amusing tone through most of the book shifts dramatically by the end with some jarring events that don't seem to fit with the rest of the story. Overall, however, A Little Night Magic is a delightful story with more than a few emotional moments.

'Delightful and delicious. Every word I devoured had me craving more. Tobias and Olivia's journey was touching, magical, and utterly romantic. I cannot recommend this book enough. Lucy March is destined to be a superstar' Darynda Jones, author of the Charley Davidson series Olivia Kiskey has been working at the same waffle house since she was a teenager. She's been in love with the same man for the last four years (he's never made a move). Every Saturday night she meets up with the same friends over the same margaritas for the same old stories. But now everything is about to change, because magic is coming to Olivia's town. It's time to discover who she really is - time to let loose the talents she's held in check for so long . . . 'A sweet, funny tale of self-discovery, friendship, and trust . . . It's the down-to-earth humour and humanity of a fiercely loyal and likable clique of smalltowners who'll keep new fans waiting for March's next trick.' Publishers Weekly 'A page turning plot, held together with a cast of quirky and unusual characters who help to make this a most enjoyable read. Part urban fantasy, part paranormal romance, all mixed together with a soft scoop of southern hospitality' Serendipity Reviews
