Justine Hoffman turned her back on the witch's coven she grew up in to open a bed and breakfast. She wants no part of that restricted lifestyle. With the business doing so well she is concerned about her love life or lack their of, she longs to fall in love. None of her spells are working hence the latest breakup. Justine finds out that there is a curse put on her which keeps her free from ever finding love. Justine began preparations to reverse the spell but first she has to see to Jason Black, the multi-millionaire guest with special needs. Jason rented the entire bed and breakfast for a number of reasons but his main reason involves Justine whom he finds himself very attracted to. Jason won't let anything stand in the way of getting what he came for but there isn't any reason why he can't have a little fling with Justine, After all what harm can come of the two of them having some fun. Although Justine is afraid of her feelings for Jason, she's waited too long not to explore what's between them until she learns there is a price to be paid for love and the choice is not up to either of them. Looking for a touching tale about the price of love then be sure to pick up CRYSTAL COVE the latest book from the multitalented Ms. Kleypas, an author whose works never fail to deliver pages and pages of sensual romance with a side order of the paranormal. I loved everything about CYRSTAL COVE beginning with the characters who are refreshingly lovable and the appealing storyline. The irreverent dialogue between the hero and heroine is a true delightful from their very first meeting and liberally sprinkled throughout. Steamy and lush loves scenes spice up the pages of what is sure to be a keeper for fans of paranormal romance.
