ABOUT THE BOOK -

Elly Blair welcomes the chance to escape her ex-fiance and job from hell when Grandma Imelda, ready to retire to sunny Florida, calls for her to take over her little southern cafe.

Elly has no idea her grandmother has baked up magic for the unsuspecting townsfolk for thirty years-and now Grandma Imelda insists that Elly use her own hitherto unsuspected magical powers to carry on the family tradition.

But Elly's new at this stuff. Her dishes don't turn out as full of smidgens of enchantment and dashes of wishes come true as she'd hoped. When handsome customer Rory Covington takes a bite of the wrong burger, he ends up capturing the attention of every woman in town. Elly doesn't know if her feelings for Rory are true or based on her magic gone awry.

Tom Owenton is an investigator the National Organization for Magic sent to look into the magical mishap. Unless Elly can reverse the spell, the cafe will be closed permanently. Tom is more than willing to help Elly out of this magical pickle, but she's not sure she should accept his offer.

Elly only has forty-eight hours to find a way to reverse the spell, or she'll lose the cafe and never discover if her feelings for Rory are real.

MY REVIEW -

This was a very cute, fun book to read! This was not one of those dark, scary, serious witch books. This was a quick easy flowing read.
I loved the setting - a cafe', can't get much better than that! For some reason I loved stories set in cafe's. You have "small town America", the cafe', the kitchen where all the spells are cooked up, the park - everything is presented very nicely so you get a good picture in your head.
It has nice character development. I really liked Elly. I loved that she wasn't perfect, in fact... far from it! She didn't know what she was doing, she made mistakes, but she did try to correct them! She seemed cute, kind, sweet, and bumbling, LOL. I liked Rory (the love interest) and I even loved Tom (The magic investigator), the only one I didn't like was the Cafe' worker - Mary Jane. I don't really know why I didn't care for her, I just didn't.
In the book Elly compared herself and her situation to "Bewitched" and I have to say - Yeah, it does remind me of that! That's the flavor of this story.

This was a clean (no swearing, no sex) fun, quick read. A nice coffee on the porch kinda read!
