About the Book: "...something is stirring in Fates Haven, Colorado... A witch and a shifter get a second chance at love..."

About the Audiobook: This book was narrated by Isabelle Ruther and Teddy Hamilton. This is the first time I have heard this duo together. They did a wonderful job. I confess I am a little biased where Teddy Hamilton is concerned. I love listening to his narrated books. He could read me the encyclopedia, and I would totally listen.
My Final Say: I loved this story so much! I was thoroughly entertained. The characters, the community, the conflicts and dilemmas, the banter and tension, the bakery - all of it grabbed hold of me. It was a hoot and then some.
This book is a winner! Book me a trip to this magical place.
