The line between magic and sanity is very thin.
That’s part of why I, Garnet Lacey, quit cold turkey.
Never touch the stuff. No exceptions.
But magic is so addictive…and my inner Goddess Lilith is hard to resist. Besides, restraint isn’t easy when you manage Wisconsin’s premiere occult bookstore, and get customers like Sebastian Von Traum—piercing brown eyes, a sexy accent, and a killer body in denim and black leather. The only thing missing is an aura. Which means he’s dead…
And that means trouble. I guess I’m a sucker for it. The Vatican witch hunters are on to us. My long-lost vampire ex has crawled out of the woodwork looking for action. And Sebastian’s frustrated ex is stirring in her grave.
So what’s a girl to do if she’s hot for a dead man walking? Run like hell—and take full advantage of the nights…

Garnet Lacy, who is hiding from the witch-slaying Vatican agents known as the Order of Eustace, and who wants no more supernatural help from interfering Lilith, figures it's best to hide in plain sight, so she acquires a job managing an occult bookstore. Eschewing magic to stay undetected by the agents (and also because her cat familiar is allergic to it), Garnet has no desire to hook up with anybody the least bit magical, until Sebastian Von Traum walks in looking for mandrake root. Because Garnet can see auras, it is obvious that Sebastian is a vampire. But he is also a witch who achieved immortality along with the ability to not fry in sunlight. The Vatican wants his formula, his eternally adolescent vampire son may be in cahoots with them, and another vampire has taken up residence in Garnet's home along with Lilith. Hallaway's entertaining debut paranormal romance will appeal to readers of Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse series.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2006, American Library Association.)
