A stroke of magic

the long version

"You know how freaky it is, to expect one taste and get another? Imagine picking up a can of tepid ginger ale and taking a swig of delicious, icy-cold peppermint tea. Alice Raymond did just that. And though the tea is exactly what she wants, she bought herself a soda. No, Alice's life isn't exactly paint-by-numbers. After breaking things off with her lying, stealing, bum of an ex, she discovered she's pregnant. Motherhood was definitely on her 'someday' wish list, but a baby means less time for her art and no time for recent hallucinations that include this switcheroo with the tea. She has to impress her new boss, the ridiculously long-lashed, smoky-eyed Ethan Gallagher, and she has to deal with her family, who has started rambling about gypsy curses. Only a soul-deep bond with the right man can save her and her child? As if being single wasn't pressure enough!"--p. [4] of cover.
