"Lisa Kleypas shows just how magical true love can be with CRYSTAL COVE"

Romance Contemporary

All Justine Hoffman wished for was for a chance to fall in love. Lonely and seeking companionship, Justine feels as if she is missing out on life. She is desperate to find true love in the form of a loving and trusting man, however despite everything she does, she is unable to land that special someone to experience magic with and doesn't understand why.

As fate would have it, Jason Black, a mysterious businessman decides to spend his vacation at her inn. Jason Black is a force to be reckoned with. With his possessive glare and dominant tendencies, Justine finds herself unnaturally drawn to the man, soon becoming more and more free as she spends more time with him.

Lisa Kleypas stretches her wings in CRYSTAL COVE, venturing farther than she has ever before. Though her signature voice is still very much present, she also delves deeper into the paranormal aspect that has sprinkled this series so far. The paranormal element is played up much more since Justine is a witch and belongs to a coven and her mother has cast a spell on that prevents her from ever falling in love.

Now, Justine and Jason are facing a curse that once uplifted could cause dire consequences and quite possibly end all their lives. Is experiencing true love worth the risk?

Lisa Kleypas shows just how magical true love can be with CRYSTAL COVE, conjuring up a love story that is poignant and touching and greater than magic itself.

SUMMARY

One Woman Who Has Been Cursed Never To Find Love . . .
One Man Without A Soul Who Wants Her More Than Life Itself . . .
They Meet In A Small Island Town In The Pacific Northwest, Where Magic Is In The Air And Fate Is A Force Too Powerful To Defy. . . .

In New York Times bestselling author Lisa Kleypas\'s Crystal Cove, Justine Hoffman has made a comfortable life for herself on the island of Friday Harbor. She is the proprietor of a successful boutique hotel, and she has the safe, predictable life she has always wanted. Growing up with her flighty, nomadic mother, Marigold, has instilled in her a deep longing for stability. But in spite of everything Justine has achieved, there is still something missing. Love. And after years of waiting and dreaming, she is willing to do whatever it takes to change her destiny.

What Justine soon discovers is that someone cast a spell on her when she was born, with the result that she will never find her soul mate. Determined to change her fate, Justine finds a way to break the enchantment, never dreaming of the dangerous complications that will follow.

And when Justine meets the mysterious Jason Black, she accidentally unleashes a storm of desire and danger that threaten everything she holds dear . . . because Jason has secrets of his own, and he wants more from her than fate will ever allow.
