The Wish List Book

Kristin Montgomery is more than a little shocked when her aunts inform her they’re fairy godmothers. Worse, after dropping that bombshell they hand her a wand and head off on a world cruise. Now Kristin’s uncomplicated life as a CPA in San Diego has disappeared like magic and she not only has to deal with her burgeoning magical powers, but also a reluctant—and distractingly sexy—magical arbiter.

Tennyson Ritter is a historian. A scholar by choice, he is yanked from his studies to act as arbiter for the newly chosen fairy godmother. He doesn’t want to waste his time with a woman who doesn’t know anything about magic or the magical world, but soon the beguiling Kristin draws him away from his books and into her life.

But before Kristin can hone her skills and pass the tests necessary to fully claim her powers, she and Tennyson must work together to defend the world – both magical and human – against those that would claim her powers for their own.

Publishers Weekly

In this charming but thin paranormal romance debut, Kristin Montgomery's life gets turned upside down when her three aunts blithely inform her that they're fairy godmothers, retiring, and selecting Kristin as their first replacement. The logically minded CPA quickly discovers that all is not wish granting and fairy dust in the world of the magic-using Arcani, where someone very dangerous may be planning a coup. She also has to cope with Tennyson Ritter, an inevitably attractive and arrogant wizard sent by the Arcani to test Kristin's abilities. Kristin enjoys granting kids' wishes, befriending sprites, and seducing Tennyson, but though she supposedly possesses vast untapped magical powers, they don't extend to identifying the (extremely obvious) villain or besting him without help. Readers will hope to see Kristin come into her own in the planned sequels. (May)
