Would-Be Witch — Kimberly Frost

In the small town of Duvall, Texas, the only thing that causes more trouble than gossip -- is magic.

The family magic seems to have skipped over Tammy Jo Trask. All she gets are a few untimely visits from long-dead, smart-mouthed family ghost Edie. But when her locket -- an heirloom that happens to hold Edie's soul -- is stolen in the midst of a town-wide crime spree, it's time for Tammy to find her inner witch.

After a few experiences with her dysfunctional magic, Tammy turns to the only person in small-town Duval, Texas, who can help: the very rich and highly magical Bryn Lyons. He might have all the answers -- and a 007 savoir faire to boot -- but the locket isn't the only heirloom passed down in Tammy's family. She also inherited a warning: stay away from Lyons.
