Vesper Holloway runs her family club, where a dash of spell powder or an enchanted cocktail can add a little extra intrigue to the evening. But when a spate of accidents strikes these establishments, she worries patrons will flee her family's business. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEnter Maxwell Ashbridge, a onetime friend of Vesper's brother, who has joined the government agency tasked with enforcing the ban, and who has a personal vendetta against the magical elite. But he does not have a vendetta against Vesper; in fact, he finds her rather enticing. He promises immunity for her club if she teams up with him to investigate, which does little to quell the growing chemistry they share. As accidents continue and the fight to repeal the ban gains ground in Parliament, Vesper and Max will have to decide--is the magic between them worth fighting for?\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMartha Waters is the author of \u003ci\u003eAnd Then There Was the One\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eChristmas Is All Around\u003c\/i\u003e, and the Regency Vows series, which includes \u003ci\u003eTo Have and to Hoax\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTo Love and to Loathe\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTo Marry and to Meddle\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTo Swoon and to Spar\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eTo Woo and to Wed\u003c\/i\u003e.
