Alex Caruthers is a sassy socialite who knows when it''s time to turn in her dancing shoes and kick some serious dragon booty.

For help she turns to Jake, head of Caruthers security-and a total hottie in a suit-and asks him to pose as her boyfriend.

From the acclaimed author of Charmed & Dangerous comes a sassy paranormal romance about a gorgeous librarian who sees dead people.   Of all the places Kira Smythe thought she’d end up, her hometown of Sweet, Texas, certainly wasn’t one of them. But ever since a woman died because of her, Kira’s high-powered job, along with her five-year plan, have gone right out the window. Now she’s right back where she started: staying with her hippie, tofu-obsessed parents, except that somehow she’s inherited the local library. At least there’s a gorgeous guy in town who seems quite smitten with the new librarian. So what if he’s obviously got a few secrets up his sleeve? After all, Kira’s got her own secrets. Like the dead people who won’t stop talking to her. Or the magical books on the shelves. Or the fact that someone who’s very much alive seems determined to push her over to the other side.   Praise for Candace Havens   “A delightful ride from the first page to the last.”—Romance Reviews Today   “Simply bewitching!”—Jodi Thomas, New York Times bestselling author   “Quick-paced [and] engaging.”—Booklist

First in a terrific new series featuring wealthy paranormal party girls?from the author of the Charmed books. The Caruthers sisters are heiresses with privilege, wealth, beauty, and brains. But these party girls have something extra. As the Guardian Keys, possessors of an ancient family secret, they hold the fate of the world in their hands. Gillian, the eldest, is a sensation in the art world? this world, that is. In her other world she?s the Assassin, a knockout who snuffs out dimension-jumpers who foul up her personal space. She never expected to join forces with one. But when a plague of murderous demons plunges the earth in darkness, she has no choice but to get a little help from a being who knows his stuff.

I know my purpose: To rid the world of evil, one bad guy at a time.   When I turned twenty I took the oath to protect, and for the last five years I’ve kept that promise.  Currently, I’ve got a gig as a kind of one-witch secret service to the British Prime Minister—using a combination of potions, spells, explosions, mind-reading, and general butt-kicking skills, I’ve saved him from so many assassins we’ve quit counting. Umm, did I mention explosions?  Yeah, well: we all have our talents, and mine’s combustion.   After that recent incident when those stupid warlocks tried to sacrifice me, I decided I’m going to write everything down. That way if some creep knocks me off, someone will know what happened.  But hopefully this diary won’t be all about maiming and killing. I’d like to write some sexy bits, too.  Especially about Dr. Sam, who’s smart, funny, adorable, everything I’d want in a man—except he’s a warlock. Sorry, that’s a big no-no in Bronwyn’s book of dating material.  I might as well face it: witches don’t do so well in the boyfriend department.  Somehow, men find me a tad intimidating. I can’t imagine why.

But there’s something demanding and carnal in play.The only way to satisfy it? One hot little fling…

After spending most my life single (for witches it’s practically an occupational hazard) I finally found someone to love. OK, so then he got killed, but he’s recuperating nicely.  And I should be home, nursing him—maybe just a little bit naughtily—back to health.   But no.  The Prime Minister asked if I could look after this rock star buddy of his, Zane.  Creepy Goth guys in cloaks keep showing up at his concerts and zapping his mojo.  Hmm, smells like teen warlock to me. Anyway, I owe the PM, and Zane is fun, too—I mean, what girl wouldn’t want to hang with the hottest man in music?    Look, everyone has vices.  Right now, I’d like to indulge in one of mine and blow some people up so I can get back to my sweetie in Texas. But if these caped dudes don’t show themselves before another paparazzi shot of Zane and me hits the tabloids, I may not have a boyfriend to go home to.   “From demon-hunting and club-hopping to boyfriend-minding and shoe-shopping, this book has it all.”—Romancedivas.com   “A delightful ride from the first page to the last . . . the action is immediate and lightning fast.”—Romance Reviews Today
