Description
The two worst kinds of cases: love and death.
Alexandra Quinn and Rio Mondragon run a successful magician-for-hire business, mostly handling small-time magical crimes like hexes and love potions. They operate under the watchful eye of the Bureau of Magical Affairs, who want to pass a law requiring all magic users to wear scarlet letters, but so far they've been able to stay under the radar since Quinn is involved with a BMA agent who turns a blind eye to their rule-breaking.
That fragile balance shatters the day Quinn and Rio’s old classmate—wealthy club owner and convicted dark wizard Devin Rayne—hires them to find out who is trying to kill him. Quinn blames Rayne and his dark magic for the death of her boyfriend ten years ago, and she's not ready to let the past ago.
Unfortunately, some of their former enemies have the same idea, and Quinn's traitorous heart isn't helping the case, either.

Alexandra Quinn and Rio Mondragon have a successful business as magicians-for-hire, mostly handling small things like un-doing love potions, and removing hexes. Then one day, Quinn's past comes back to haunt her when one of their former classmates hires them to find out who is trying to kill him. Former dark wizard Devin Rayne, who Quinn blames for the death of her boyfriend ten years ago, is still an enemy in her eyes. So, she is reluctant to help, to say the least.
This was a fun book. It was like a grown-up version of Harry Potter, where magic is used to solve crimes and help people. I will say, there are some very explicit sex scenes, so this would not be appropriate for teens. I hope that this will be the beginning of a series, because I would like to see more of these characters in the future, and see how all of the relationship dynamics play out. If you are a fan of fantasy books then I think you will enjoy this light read.
