Love brings out the animal in you

Louise Matthews has got it good. Wonderful job? Check. Loving family? The best. Roommates? Pretty fantastic, thank you. All of this helps her

stay focused on what she wants: to finish out her apprenticeship and become a fully licensed Switch-an animal mage who bonds familiars to their witches.

Only a problem has just moved in-a hot, occasionally wolf-shaped problem.

Declan Mackenzie doesn''t want to be a lone wolf, but he doesn''t have a choice. Girlfriend? Gone. Sister? Starting a new life. Parents? In prison where they belong, thankfully. All he wants is a fresh start-new home, new job, new life. What he gets is a house full of witches, a fledgling phoenix named Dammit, and rogue ferrets who won''t stay out of his business.

And he could handle all of that if it wasn''t for Louise. It''s not great to crush on your roommate. It''s even worse when you realize she wields the kind of

magic that sends you running for the door.

Still, Declan is no pup, and he''s not going to let this set him back.

Until the past comes back to haunt him-the parents he put in jail have busted out. They want revenge.

And the only thing standing between them and Declan is Louise and the very magic he vowed never to go near again.

Will Murphy spends his down time doing subversive cross-stitch, crafting saucy baked goods for the romance book club he attends with his Nana, and desperately trying to hide the fact that he''s been in love with Vanessa Woodbridge for, well, ever. For years, he''s been content to wear the best friend label. But suddenly it''s starting to chafe, right when Vanessa needs a trusted friend more than ever.

Vanessa Woodbridge wants to be a hedge witch more than anything, but her chances of becoming one are laughable. Her father''s pride stands between her and her dream of leaving her barista job behind in favor of crafting helpful potions and magical edibles at Wicked Brews. The Woodbridge patriarch has forbidden her from a career path that is, in his opinion, beneath their magical family legacy. She might not care about his feelings, but without his signature, Vanessa can''t sign up for the classes she desperately needs to learn essential hedge witchery.

She''s ready to give up, but with Will at her back, she finds the courage to fight for what she wants. She''s never been able to count on her dad, but she can count on her best friend. Will''s her rock. He would never crumble.

Only Will feels like he''s doing exactly that. He''s falling apart inside and he''s not sure how long he can keep up the façade of the calm, platonic, best friend. But for Vanessa? He''d do anything to help her get her dream...

Even if it costs him the one thing he cherishes most.

Her.
