It
Must Be Magic

by Jennifer Skully
A magical world
with a cat talker heroine.
A
magical world
with a cat talker heroine, It Must
Be Magic is a
contemporary and humorous romance that will
appeal to romance lovers and especially to cat lovers. The heroine is a
cat talker and can see the world of animals through images. This spirit
of this romance recaptures the innocence and childlike wonder before
the world that as adults we often fail to see.
Lili Goodweather's twelve year old neighbor pleads with her to help
her terrified cat Fluffy. She doesn't really believe Lili can talk to
animals just like she doesn't believe in ghosts, vampires or Santa
Claus. When it comes to helping her cat, however, Erika will try
anything. Lili discovers that her neighbor's cat has witnessed a
murder. She can't very well scare a child, so Lili has to risk ridicule
and do the next best thing --- tell her father, Tanner Rutland. After
the death of his first wife, Tanner Rutland has to protect his
daughter. The best way to do that is to keep her heart from being
broken and to focus on the cold practical facts. "Success not effort is
the key" and "Everything is fine" are his refrains. He knows every
answer. He's logical and out of touch with his feelings and just about
as different from Lili as day is from night. So why is he traipsing
through the forest looking for a dead body with Lili? When they
actually do stumble across a body, Tanner must choose whether Lili can
actually cat talk or is she mentally misdirected (Lili's words) as Lili
fears he will think.
The reader is drawn to the lovable characters, even the secondary
ones. The side romance of Lili's boss is a wonderful addition. Erika's
grandfather interferes, rattles and plots behind Tanner's back. Lady
Dreadlock haunts Lili --- can Lili finally get through to her like she
does with animals and finally unravel the mystery of the murder? Who is
this mysterious woman?
Most of all, readers will adore It
Must Be Magic because it brings
the reader back to that that world where goodness and magic and romance
thrive. What you can't see online is the back cover. In the corner are
two "new" constellations in the shape of cat paws. This book is like
discovering a new constellation...magic.
Sheer Dynamite
A Jennifer
Skully magical romance!
When Opal has a vision of a body
falling from the overpass, she knows
she can finally prove herself to her psychically famous family.
Unfortunately, Jack Davis, ran into the back of her car in the process
but she can use hime to verify her vision when it comes true.
Determined to prove herself, she ropes Jack into her escapades despite
his reluctance. Can he fight his past and find the dream of his heart
as Opal leads him from one danger to another? And what about Grandma
Blue who swears Jack is reincarnated Dynamite Davis the famouse race
car driver?
This book is
absolutely crazy and Jennifer Skully fans will love
it! Sheer Dynamite a
contemporary romance but also a supernatural
romance with all sorts of psychic characters and a couple of the
craziest most lovable and humorous characters. Jennifer Skully
intrigues the reader by writng two romances, one light and the other
tinged with darkness, danger and brooding. Both pull the reader into
the heart of this romance. The romance between Pearl and Niles with all
its darkness was the perfect counterpoint to the zany, humorous romance
between Jack and Opal. Grandma Blue is a total scream and one of the
most fun, interfering, crazy, heartful characters. Opal is ditzy and
yet she has the biggest heart (and yes, the contellation on the cover
is in the shape of a heart). I don't usually like ditzy heroines but
Opal is the exception to the rule. She just has the kindest heart and
her crazy logic is magical. She may do everything wrong and not fit in
with her psychically renowned family but she always finds herself doing
everything right because she is led by the crazy logic of her heart.
