All-time literature low? Sadly, probably not, but page 2 and I'm already totally sick of this book. Oh, sorry - page 5. Made it all the way to page 14 before literally throwing the book in the garbage. And I almost never completely abandon a book. I at least make it halfway before leaving it for a few weeks to read something else, then coming back to it. This was just beyond terrible. Bronwyn is a witch, the one-witch secret service to the British Prime Minister, somehow living in the US. Written as a diary she accounts her life as she tries to balance her life with her job, trying to keep her mind on the work while also enjoying the explosions she's able to. It's readable and I wouldn't be put off reading the others in the series but not a keeper. foi gave me this book as she went to the book signing saturday and thought i would love this book. and i did! it tells the story of bronwyn, a high witch, whose job is to protect the british prime minister. she can read minds and make people (read warlocks) and objects explode. this book was fast-paced and full of action with just a bit of romance thrown in. there are things reminiscent of buffy such as all the weird named demons and the magic shop, element of charmed with all the bad warlocks out to steal a witch's power. what i found really interesting though is in candace havens' world, everyone knows about witches. they don't have to hide or keep themselves a secret. not to say that everyone likes them or isn't afraid of them. i like how the book is written in diary format and bronwyn just plain kicks ass. if you like a little witchy magic and are in the mood for light reading, definitely check this out. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

When Bronwyn turned twenty she took the oath to protect, and for the last five years she's kept that promise, working as a kind of one-witch secret service to the British Prime Minister. Her arsenal includes a combination of potions, spells, explosions, mind-reading tricks, and general butt-kicking skills. But Bronwyn has a soft side, too-especially when it comes to Dr. Sam, the favorite physician of her new hometown, Sweet, Texas. He's smart, funny, adorable, everything she could want in a man. Except he's also a warlock-a big no-no in Bronwyn's book of dating. Being a witch is definitely getting in the way of her sex life. If zapping evil jerks is easy, why is finding a boyfriend so hard?

I also got extremely irritated with the author re-writing history: Like a Charm takes place before Christmas and the characters’ relationship is resolved and their embracing their HEA well before then. But this book takes place 3 months later and there are scenes with Kira and Caleb where they’re still in the hand holding stage and haven’t yet “done the nasty”.
Anyway – not a great book. ( )
