As far as Katie Chandler can tell, she's the last person in the world who would need a fairy godmother, after all, she's managed to finally connect on a romantic level with the handsomest wizard in the office, Owen Palmer. Her only problems are business related, namely that the evil competition is threatening to take over the world. Having Ethelinda as her fairy godmother is not only not needed or wanted, but downright inconvenient. At every turn, the woman's help turns into sabotage. Between that and the magical corporate war going on, Katie's world feels like she's on a rollercoaster. If she doesn't get control fast, she'll be in worse shape than Cinderella at midnight.

Humor, romance, and magic weave a sparkling spell around readers in this zippy tale. Even though the holidays are months away, this Christmas story is welcome any time of the year.

Synopsis
To-do: Stop the bad guys. Rescue the wizard. Find the perfect outfit for New Year's Eve.

At last, Owen Palmer, the dreamboat wizard at Magic, Spells, and Illusions, Inc., has conjured up the courage to get Katie Chandler under the mistletoe at the office holiday party. But just when it looks like Katie has found her prince, in pops her inept fairy godmother, Ethelinda, to throw a wand into the works. Ethelinda's timing couldn't be worse. A plot hatched by MSI's rogue ex-employees, Idris and his evil fairy gal pal Ari, threatens to expose the company's secrets–and the very existence of magic itself. Even worse, it could also mean the end of Katie's happily-ever-after.

Now Katie and Owen must work side by side (but alas, not cheek to cheek) to thwart the villains' plans. Braving black-magic-wielding sorceresses, subway-dwelling dragons, lovelorn frog princes, and even the dreaded trip to meet Owen's parents at Christmas, Katie and her beau are in a battle to beat Idris at his own sinister game. All mischief and matters of the heart will come to a head at a big New Year's Eve gala, when the crystal ball will drop, champagne will pour, and Katie will find herself truly spellbound.
