This book’s tagline should be: Harry Potter meets Men in Black.
An action-packed, hilarious fast read that reads more like a movie than a book. I was addicted from start to finish and am crossing my fingers they make this into a blockbuster movie.
Wes comes from a police family and the expectations are higher for him than anyone else on the force. His father is the Police Commissioner and his siblings can do no wrong. Wes disobeys one order and his father is tempted to throw him off the force. Instead, Wes is given one last chance.
The Witches Protection Program.
Don’t believe in witches? Well, neither did Wes until he met one face-to-face.
Wes doesn’t trust his eyes and trusts his partner, Alastair Verne, even less. But he’s got to at least pretend to believe witches exist if he wants his badge back and his father’s respect.
According to Alastair, there are two groups of witches… one good (Davina) and one bad (Willa). It is the duty of the Davinas to make sure the Willas are kept in check. When a Willa threatens a Davina, they need the help of the Witches Protection Program, a secret government agency.
Something is amiss at Pendragon Cosmetics and it’s up to Alastair and Wes to stop it (and protect young Morgan Pendragon) before it’s too late.
I absolutely LOVED this book! While I was reading it, I kept thinking about how cool it would be to see this on the big screen. Complete with non-stop action, this fun story answers the question about whether cosmetics run the world. The dialogue is sarcastic and soon you’re immersed in a world not unlike our own.
Mystical comedy at its best and a must read! I warn you, though, to not drink a beverage without a lid or else you might spill it from laughing too hard.
Favorite Character: Morgan. I loved how she’s innocent, somehow, from her aunt’s black magic. She appears more like a Glinda than the Wicked Witch from Oz. I also like how sparks fly between her and Wes but it’s not overly-done. The toad part was priceless.
Favorite Quote: Wes shook his head, his foot throbbing like a sore tooth and muttered, “First I’m a chew toy and now I’m stuck with Gandolf and Yoda’s prison child as a partner. Help.”
