REVIEW
Catching her husband with her best friend is not something Catherine is expecting to find when she gets home but that's exactly what she sees. Making matters more complicated, her husband is a warlock and she's a witch so the fighting takes on a whole new level of action.

Rich made a mistake that cost him his wife, he got caught with another woman in his marriage bed. Bad move on his part. Worst move was to piss off a witch.

Since witches only marry for a year and Catherine wasn't about to renew her vow with Rich, she was now a free woman. After hitting a bar for a much needed drink and staying at a B & B for a much needed rest, Catherine hits the road again only to see a hitchhiker looking for a ride to "Anywhere" according to the sign he's holding. Jeff the hitchhiker and Catherine decide to go to Las Vegas and blow off a little steam but she knows her ex will catch up to her looking to either try and win her back or get revenge for her leaving and she hopes Jeff doesn't get hurt in the crossfire.

This quick read was entertaining up until the last couple of pages when it lost traction for me and the story took a spin that left me thinking Catherine was naive, gullible and it's no wonder she ended up with a guy who would cheat on her. Other than an ending that I disliked because of how things came together, the story was an entertaining one.

If you're looking an interesting quick read, this might fit the bill.

I give this book 3 1/2 sheep.

Excerpt
Throwing money on the table, I grabbed his hand and pulled him from the booth. I led him to the elevator.

“What did you have in mind?” He hit the button and leaned toward me.

“You’ll have to wait and see.” I leaned into his neck and whispered into his ear. “Keeps you guessing.”

“Do I get three guesses?” he whispered back.

“Yes, but you only have until the elevator arrives,” I said, looking at the elevator count down the floors as it came down to pick us up.

“Is it bigger than a bread basket?”

“Yes.” I grinned, moving away to see if my bait was working, and looked back at the numbers. Four, three… Why was it taking so long? I hit the button to get it to move faster.

“Is it smaller than a thimble?”

“That depends on what you do with it.” I smiled at him, as he leaned closer to me again. I could feel his breath near the back of my neck as I still watched the elevator’s progress.

“Is it something that needs a lot of rubbing?” He started to wrap his arms around my waist, grabbing me from behind.

“You can think of yourself as Aladdin. I’m the lamp.”
