Katie Chandler has convinced herself that the weird things she sees are just the difference in her old life in rural Texas and her new life in New York City. Then she's approached by a strange man, and according to him, all the winged people, tiny creatures and disappearing gargoyles she sees are real -- and they need her help. She can't be fooled by magic -- she always sees things as they really are -- so she can prevent them being taken advantage of by other magic creatures. That might be a pretty cool job, since she gets a big raise and all, but then the other side learns of her existence and even Merlin, yes, the Merlin, has his job cut out for him.

I enjoyed this offering from Ms. Swendson very much. The storyline was totally fresh, the characters very likable and the setting quite believable. Though she wrote previously as Samantha Carter, this is her first novel under the Shanna Swendson pseudonym. I will definitely be looking for more of her magical chick-lit in the future. A good read.
