Trouble seems to find Katie Chandler, especially since she started working for a magic company in New York City. At the Halloween party, Katie helped her boss, Merlin, foil the plans of an evil magician. She was thrilled to realize that her cute coworker, Owen, a powerful wizard in the Research and Development department, likes her just as much as she likes him. Unfortunately, their relationship gets off to a slow start, as every one of their dates is interrupted by bizarre work-related emergencies. Magical fire, underground dragons and freezing water mean that Owen is focused more on which enemies are attacking them than on wooing Katie romantically, much to her disappointment. Owen is definitely a powerful orphaned wizard, all grown up and living in the big city, while Katie is the exact opposite -- she's immune to magical spells completely.

Katie should be swept off her feet by now, especially since the fabulously frumpy Ethelinda, who identifies herself as a fairy godmother, keeps appearing with well-meant advice and assistance. Does Katie's lack of spark with Owen mean that they aren't destined to be together? Will they ever have a date that doesn't end in Owen rescuing her from disaster? Katie is bewildered, overworked and secretive -- she's a DAMSEL UNDER STRESS!

After ENCHANTED, INC. and ONCE UPON STILLETTOS, Shanna Swendson has returned with a third delightful book in this light romantic fantasy series. While this is a satisfying installment in the continuing story, readers will eagerly await Katie Chandler's next adventures. Swendson packs in astute and amusing pop culture observations, from designer shoes to movies, and of course, she couldn't resist a Harry Potter reference or two. Fans of both chick-lit and Harry Potter should not miss out on this series set in magical modern-day Manhattan.
