Being a witch who specializes in magical tattoos brings all kinds of riffraff to her door, and she does everything in her power to send it on its way. A crazed sorcerer wanting her help is just another Tuesday, but the intimidating, handsome werewolf who hunts him down spells trouble with a capital T. Todd -- intense, sexy, so annoyingly sure of himself -- is exactly the kind of guy she loves, as long as she can leave before it gets serious. Todd only does serious. He keeps the pack in order for the alpha, regardless of the trouble they find. The last thing he needs is a wild card witch bringing her chaos and tattoos and distracting curves into his orderly world. But the beautiful Jinx casts a spell on him that he can’t shake, even when the pack should come first. She promises the kind of life he’s only dreamed of if he can convince her to stick around. Jinx doesn’t know who to run from faster: the evil sorcerer bent on trapping a witch, or the dark-eyed hero who tempts her with family and security and normal life. Todd wants her to be someone she’s not, and she needs him to be different, too. Can their mismatched hearts fit together, or is her spell of good luck running out?

Book Synopsis Teatime for the Firefly by : Shona Patel
Download or read book Teatime for the Firefly written by Shona Patel and published by Harlequin. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Effortlessly transports readers back to India on the brink of independence . . . fans of women’s romantic fiction will be enchanted.” —Booklist, starred review My name is Layla and I was born under an unlucky star. For a young girl growing up in India, this is bad news. But everything began to change for me one spring day in 1943, when three unconnected incidents, like tiny droplets on a lily leaf, tipped and rolled into one. It was that tiny shift in the cosmos, I believe, that tipped us together—me and Manik Deb. Despite being born under an inauspicious horoscope, Layla Roy is raised to be educated and independent. By cleverly manipulating the hand fortune has dealt her, she finds love with Manik Deb—a man betrothed to another. All were minor miracles in India that spring of 1943, when women’s lives were predetermined—if not by the stars, then by centuries of family tradition and social order. Layla’s life as a married woman takes her into the jungles of Assam, where the world’s finest tea thrives on plantations run by native labor and British efficiency. Fascinated by the culture of expats who seem unfazed by earthquakes and man-eating leopards, she struggles to find her place among the prickly English wives, and the servants now under her charge. Navigating the tea-garden set won’t be her biggest challenge. Powerful changes are sweeping India on the heels of WWII. Colonial society is at a tipping point, and Layla and Manik are caught in a perilous racial divide that threatens their very lives. “A lyrical novel that touches on themes both huge and intimate.” —Kirkus Reviews
