Paranormal

Wanda Schwartz is used to keeping secrets, since one of her best friends is a vampire and the other a werewolf. But Wanda has a secret of her own; and it's one she can't even tell her best friends. Faced with her own mortality, Wanda throws herself into the one area of her life that has sustained her through tough times, Bobbie-Sue Cosmetics. Her world is turned upside down when her recruitment ad is answered by a man. Heath Jefferson has sunk about as low as he can go, and Bobbie-Sue and Wanda may be the answers to his prayers. Having a knack for coordinating colors and a revolutionary idea for tapping into a new cosmetic market, Heath becomes Wanda's best-selling, and certainly sexiest, recruit. Despite her best intentions and plans to get her life in order, Wanda and the super-hot Heath fall in love over peanut butter cups. When he reveals his darkest secret to Wanda, Heath is amazed at how well she takes the news; until he meets her best friends Nina and Marty. When Heath outs Wanda's secret to her friends, it's going to take the three of them to make sure Heath and Wanda have a future together. Dakota Cassidy's THE ACCIDENTAL HUMAN is the third book in the Accidental Friends series -- and my favorite. Throughout the series, Wanda has been my favorite, and in a way the most human of the three friends, and her story was worth the wait. Heath is the perfect foil for the romance- reading Wanda, self-assured and yet somewhat vulnerable. Ms. Cassidy's knack for the outrageously hilarious is evident throughout the story, and the confrontation between Wanda, Nina and Marty is heart-wrenching. The solution to Wanda's mortality has a laugh-out-loud twist. I could not put this one down.

SUMMARY

Immortality bites— new from the author of Accidentally Dead and The Accidental Werewolf.

Wanda Schwartz is raking in the dough selling Bobbie-Sue Cosmetics—and she’s a pro at recruiting new saleswomen. So, she’s shocked when a man comes to one of her in-home parties—a very hot man. Heath Jefferson is sure to put some extra spin into a lot of women’s color wheels.

When Wanda is diagnosed with a terminal illness, it doesn’t have to be a death sentence. With a werewolf and a vampire for best friends, she has options that most ordinary people wouldn’t. As Wanda ponders what to do about her mortality, Heath reveals he has secrets, and one of them is that his former bloodlust has turned into an old-fashioned lust—for Wanda. And he’s already given up too much to lose the love of his lifetimes.
