Alisande Wyrrd has to find a man, short-term or long-term she needs one to restore her power. She decides to do the research and find candidates, so she finds Sebastian Wainwright, thinking that he will do. When she breaks into his offices she finds herself very attracted, he's taken aback by her and wants to know more.

The relationship takes off from there, the biggest stumbling block is his disbelief in her powers which are drained from not being in a relationship for too long.

It's fun, light stuff but nothing spectacular, the two characters are quite interesting and I look forward to reading more in this universe. ( )

The bones of this story were good, but it just wasn't fleshed out right. The heroine's a 300-year-old witch who needs a mate to rejuvenate her powers. The hero's CEO of a security company, deeply grounded in logic and rationality. It could have been really good, and I wish I could put my finger on why it isn't. The characters didn't grab me, the conflicts just didn't seem to play out. Reminds me of Linda Howard's books, in the way I feel like I should love the stories, but I don't. Could be the problem's the same: the author's telling me what the characters are feeling rather than showing me. ( )
