Night Magic
by Kathleen Ann Gallagher
The beautiful but lonely owner
of a bath and body shop, Krista Winter is in need of legal counsel. Her past is
about to catch up with her. She was
forced to flee from her life as a teacher in New Jersey after being shunned for
being a witch.
Life is not the same for Jon
Bartolo. He’s a dedicated lawyer, living in the town of Conway, New Hampshire.
His days are spent helping his clients with their struggles and his nights are
spent in agony, lost in a world between life and death.
His mother, who died three
years ago, lurks in his house, suffering from a curse for eternity, without a
resting place.
A smoldering fire between Jon
and Krista ignites almost immediately, however, he’s sure his secret would
frighten a woman away. An afternoon escape brings them closer, but doubts
linger between the love-struck couple.
How will Jon’s mother find eternal rest so he can move on
with his life? Is he bound to a life of hell on earth?
Will Krista fit into his world
when he learns about her past? Could she
be hiding a bigger secret? Is it possible for them to open their hearts to
love? Could a touch of Night Magic be
just what this couple needs?
Steadying herself, she stood back
and stared into his eyes. As Jon moved in again and plunged his tongue deep
into her mouth, he lightly brushed his hand across the back of her hair, and
she surrendered to his touch. It was as if a long lost lover had reappeared and
claimed her heart’s desire. There was no telling what might happen next. Her
whole body relaxed as he nuzzled her ear, teasing her with playful nips at her
neck. All rules had been broken, but it didn’t matter. His hard shaft rubbed up
against her stomach, and she swayed back and forth, unable to break away from
temptation. His breathing sped up and his strong arms were tight around her
back. She quietly moaned, lost in another world. Every movement brought her one
step closer. Am I that lonely? I’m about to have sex with a man I just met. As
his hand trailed across her back, her body rocked with his.
Each touch was electrifying, as
if he wanted to devour her, and she found herself in a trance-like state. Is
this what I’ve been missing? Running her hand across his firm bicep, she felt
woozy. The warmth of his body was raising her level of arousal. Here in the
middle of his office, she experienced a passion like no other. Everything
seemed right. Lust took control of her senses and she let herself go with it.
With each kiss he cradled her in his arms, his embrace warm and protective like
a warrior of love. How did this happen? Had she found the man she was destined
for or was it all a dream?
Kathleen lives in New Jersey
with her husband and their two dogs. She’s a registered nurse who works in an
emergency room. Writing has been her passion since she was a young girl.
Contemporary and paranormal romance are her favorites. She has three adult children and three lovable
grandsons. Her favorite romantic getaway is Cape May, New Jersey. You might
find Kathleen on the beach down The Jersey Shore, wearing a straw hat, sipping
on an iced tea, dreaming up her next romance novel.
