Bewitching
Jill Barnett · Regency Magic #1
A duke falls for a bubbly Scottish witch whose magic is as uncontrollable as their forbidden love.
Description
THE BEST MAGIC OF ALL IS THE KIND THAT MAKES LOVE COMES TRUE ...Alec, Duke of Belmore, did as he pleased --- and he wanted to marry the beautiful, bubbly girl who had positively bewitched him: Joyous MacQuarrie, who had appeared from nowhere and turned stately Belmore Park upside down with merriment and mischief. It hardly mattered that her Scottish bloodline was shrouded in mystery. But Alec's heated desire turned ice-cold when he discovered that this winsome lady was, in fact, a witch --- whose powers of white magic were not always perfectly under control ...Too late, Joy knew she was desperately in love and that nothing could stop the course of their destiny --- the scandal threatening to destroy her and the passion that held them both spellbound in a forbidden, irresistible match.
