Witch Please

Danica is a witch who can't fall for a mundane because she will lose her powers.

Danica Waterhouse is a modern witch living in her family home with her cousin Clementine. Danica and Clem also run Fix-It Witches, an electronic repair shop. Their magic responds to technology and they use magic rather than manpower to repair the items.

The cousins were raised as sisters and their grandmother wholeheartedly disapproves of the girls dating a mundane -- even though both of their mothers are currently married to men from non-witch lines. Gram tells the girls that they will lose their powers if they fall for a regular guy.

Both cousins naturally are drawn to normal guys -- Danica to a baker named Titus and Clem to a mundane I won't identify because spoilers! Clem's story leaves room for book number two in the series.

Titus is head over heels for Danica at first sight, immediately telling his sister that she is the woman he will one day marry. Danica is just looking for a fling after a bad breakup where her ex ended up marrying a mutual friend. They don't share their approaches to the relationship, which leads to tension and problems that must be ironed out before their happily ever after.

Ava Lucas' narration fits the story. I wish there were two narrators -- Ava as Danica and another male narrator to read Titus' chapters.

Recommended for fans of light-hearted contemporary romance. Fans of the Sookie Stackhouse series or other contemporary fantasy readers who don't mind romance will also enjoy this novel.
