Until it’s not so nice. Spells start going awry, and spring rains turn into wild storms that wreak havoc. While the supernatural power brokers in town try to trace the spell problems, Juliette stumbles across a sneaky theft in the accounts of Beauty Bewitched. Juliette is busy trying to track down the who and the why of the theft, but it’s hard to get anything done when the town’s residents are facing random tornados and electrical storms. Meanwhile, Donovan Wick is busy wooing Juliette, and a stray dog named Sunshine just might help him along the way. Take a visit to Charm Cove, where Wicked meets Good and where you just might find there’s almost always more than meets the eye.

Emotions and values; these two are the most important pillars in our lives. They make us the person we are. They trigger different thoughts; decide our reactions, responses and course of actions. This collection of mine; 'Story Spell', has 35 brilliant narratives, spun on similar lines. The book is filled with an amalgam of a variety of feelings; both positive and negative; happy and sad. Although, all tales are figments of my imagination, they are still realistic. I've tried my best to keep them as authentic as possible, so that my readers can easily relate to the characters and their circumstances. Some will make you smile; others might see you shed a tear. Moreover, a few may give you food for thought. Nonetheless, I'm sure each one will touch your heart. Each story will hardly take some minutes to finish. But in those moments if you are able to live the life of the character along with him or her, then I've achieved my goal. Thank you for picking up my book. Hope you enjoy reading it, as much as I had the delight of putting it down. Loads of surprises await you. Turn the pages and find yourself getting mesmerized in my world of short stories. Happy rea ding!!
