When Dorcas and Ambrose, matchmaking sex therapists to witches and wizards, are exiled for their latest sex hex gone wrong, they find themselves in boring Big Knob, Indiana, trying to convince an ADD dragon to take his guardian responsibilities seriously. With only the nights to try to convince George the Dragon that he needs to start being more responsible, it leaves the matchmaking duo plenty of days to get into all kinds of trouble.

Sean Madigan is the town Adonis and he's tired of all the ladies, young and old, throwing themselves at him constantly. When Dorcas and Ambrose offer to help him with his problem in exchange for his carpentry skills, he accepts without really thinking the idea through. Almost as soon as they strip him of his sex appeal, he needs it back. He's finally met a woman who makes him feel again, and since she's after the same plot of land Sean's been coveting since he was seven years old, he needs his sex appeal to win her over fast.

Maggie Grady is a location scout for a big department chain and is determined to buy the property Sean is after. Her job depends on it. Not understanding what it is about Sean that drives the local women wild with lust, Maggie's sure she can resist the geek in the glasses with a bad haircut. But underneath his geek exterior still beats the heart of a ladies man. If he can't win her over just by having her look at him, then Sean will do it the old fashioned way; by working for it. Learning what it means to have to woo a woman, Sean finds he really has got his work cut out for himself. Taking the lead for once in a relationship, though, is teaching Sean all about what he really likes, and more than anything right now, he really likes Maggie.

Be prepared to fall in love with this brand new series from Vicki Lewis Thompson. OVER HEXED is a wildly hilarious ride that'll keep you laughing from cover to cover. I loved the angst poor Sean had to go through once he lost his sex appeal. Watching him fumble his way through his first meeting with Maggie and then try to win her over without the help of his sexual appeal is pure entertainment. Dorcas, Ambrose, and the residents of Big Knob, Indiana, keep the story going and leave you wanting more, with George the Dragon and his poker playing ways stealing the show. I can't wait for the second book in this series. Get ready to be hexed!

SUMMARY

Big Knob, Ind. Population 947 + 1 Witch + 1 Wizard + 1 ADD Dragon

The secret to happiness . . .
Banished. Until their unconventional techniques landed them in hot water, Dorcas and Ambrose were the matchmaking sex therapists for lovelorn witches and wizards. The Grand High Wizard has exiled them to the very conventional and unmagical town of Big Knob, Indiana, Pop. 947. But that doesn’t mean they’ve given up matchmaking?

Is a good hex life?
Now they’re doing it for mere mortals ... although all agree: Sean Madigan is something of a god. Because he’s tired of being the town sex object, Dorcas and Ambrose strip him of his appeal and then introduce him to his destiny, Maggie Grady. This time winning a girl’s heart won’t be so easy for Sean. It means rediscovering the charms buried beneath a gorgeous surface, and finally proving himself to be more of a man than ever before.
