Two elements I love in the paranormal genre are witches and ghosts. I lucked out with both in His Magic Touch plus it is set in New Orleans! I craved beignets the entire time I was reading.
Jared Dupre is one fine man. He’s helps run the family hotel, he’s got a beautiful fiancé, and he’s a witch. On his road to the altar, he hits a major complication. His brother has been abducted by a witch bent on settling a centuries old vendetta. While Jared is off chasing his brother, his fiancé, Kendra, is left to pick up the pieces of their wedding fail.
After a great battle and weeks of recuperation, Jared finally makes it back to the big easy to find his nemesis alive and romancing Kendra. The fight is on to win Kendra’s heart and put the vendetta to rest permanently.
Grahl takes us on wild ride while chatting with ghosts, reconnecting with ancestors, and a cursed object or two. I loved Jared from the very beginning. He knew his brother had delved in dark magic in the past, but he was still willing to go after him not knowing why he was abducted and at the peril of losing Kendra. He had some moments when his ego got in the way, but he fought his way into my heart as I’m sure he will yours.
Kendra was a bit of a hard sell for me. She’s a witch, has an awesome job running ghost tours, and has a fiancé she’s been with for five years. I would’ve hoped she could trust Jared a little more than she did, but when the nemesis showed up and cast his spell over her, her trust in Jared vanished. Once she let her heart decide and not her spell drenched mind, things finally became clear.
If you’re in the mood for a steamy witch love triangle with ghosts leading the charge in one of the best cities in the world, you will love His Magic Touch!

As is the case at times ... life got in the way and reading this took WAY TOO long ... but finish it I did.
It was a great story! Well written with vivid characters and world.
I very much look forward to the next book!

I've received a ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I was trying really REALLY hard to like this but Kendra, Loren and Deanne insecure and childish behavior was such a turn off. I was already done and over it by chapter 10 and that wasn't even 1/3 through the book. Poor Jared, him deciding he loves and cares for Kendra too much to let her go is a death sentence. The concept and storyline was great but if we had a more likable heroine, I probably would've made it to the end. I guess you can't win them all.
