Action packed.

It's about a month after the events of the first book (there is a short recap in this story, in case you missed the first book) and Phoebe thought her life had turned back to normal. Well, sort of normal, living in a household with a werewolf, a vampire and two mages. But then her boss tells her he finds her repulsive. He kindly adds that he shouldn't feel this way.

It turns out, Phoebe is under a spell. And while her boss (also a mage) tries to find a counter-spell, Phoebe tries to stay out of his way and to dodge her mother. Her (second) cousin Olivia is getting married and apparently, for mother Thorpe this is reason to pester her daughter about getting married. (For reals? Is her mother from the Regency period?)

The hunt for the counter-spell leads to the discovery of a conspiracy among mages.

As I said, action packed.

I read an ARC through NetGalley.
