Love, Hexes, and Beignets
(2027)(The first book in the Ghostly Hexes series)
A novel by Candace Adams
A witch with zero control. A ghost with too much attitude. A curse that refuses to quit.
Magnolia Fontenot has on problem: her magic is a disaster. She can't cast a simple light spell without setting the furniture on fire, a talant that has left her single, broke, desperate, and fleeing to a tiny Louisiana bayou town to claim her grandmother's run-down bed-and-breakfast.
But the inn isn't empty. It's occupied by Julien Boudreax, a charming 1920's con artist who died under mysterious, and cursed, circumstances. Julien has spent the last century haunting the halls, stealing pastries from the kitchen, and posing shirtless in mirrors just to annoy the living.
When Magnolia arrives with nothing but and angry orange cat named Beignet and twelve dollars to her name, a botched seance involving cheap rum and powdered sugar goes spectacularly wrong. In an instant, she finds herself bound to the ghost. Literally.
Now, every time Magnolia steps too far from the property, she accidentally yanks Julien along like a tethered poltergeist. And as the curse begins to spiral, causing increasingly ridiculous paranormal disasters throughout the sleepy bayou, the two of them must learn to work together.
If they can't break their supernatural leash, and stop the town from imploding, they're going to be stuck with each other for eternity. And honestly? That might be the biggest catastrophe of all.
Spells, spirits, and sweet tea- some things ar best left unhexed.
Genre: Romance
