"A magical read..."
Jaime Campbell doesn't believe in magic but when a
friend suggests she buy a magic talisman at The Broom
Closet magic store to change her bad luck, she figures it
can't do any harm. Jaime finds she is drawn to the dusty
old store and when she meets its mysterious proprietor her
life changes forever.
Modern-day witch, Chad Penwarren, had only agreed to
look after the store for a friend. Little did he know that
his reluctant customer would be the one to fulfill a family
prophesy to reunite two lost souls. THE TALISMAN is a short story packed with magic and
romance, Chad Penwarren is a compelling character whom I
would have liked to see more of. The story is well written
and I particularly enjoyed the spine-tingling scene when
the heroine finds herself at the mercy of the villain. If
you enjoy stories involving contemporary witchcraft then
Karin Huxman's tale is for you.
