The Hocus Pocus Magic Shop by Abigail Drake Pdf

When chemist Grace O’Leary finds a book of magic spells hidden in her Aunt Lucy’s run-down magic shop, the scientist in her itches to try them out. She mixes up a batch of love potions as a joke, and has to face the consequences when they actually seem to work. Her dream of becoming a professor is in peril, and time is running out to finish research for her dissertation. She can't handle any more distractions, but the magic shop is on the verge of closing, her aunt has become forgetful and confused, and a handsome reporter named Dario Fontana keeps sniffing around for a story. The last thing she needs is for him to find out about the love potions and expose her as fraud, but she begins to trust him, and the sizzling chemistry between them is soon too powerful to deny. With her personal and professional life in chaos, and her budding relationship with Dario in jeopardy, Grace is faced with a difficult choice. Fixing what is broken means going against every logical bone in her body. Can Grace learn to silence her scientific brain long enough to accept the truth about magic…and also about herself?

The Dragonsong Law Offices by Abigail Drake Pdf

One sister is a powerful witch, but the other has special powers of her own. Eliza Dragonsong is a lawyer by day and a Wiccan high priestess by night. Her unique skillset comes in handy in the courtroom, and also when she's asked to guard an ancient cursed stone from the dangerously charming Ivan Rochat. Although he's a former art thief with a questionable past, Eliza still finds herself drawn to him, and soon realizes she has to guard more than just the stone. She has to guard her heart as well. Amanda Dragonsong is nothing like her older half-sister. Shy and self-conscious, she's a woman gifted with a beautiful voice, but that gift can also be a curse. Her lullabies make people drift off to sleep, and her sad songs make them cry, but it's her love songs that often cause the most damage. When her domineering mother forges Amanda's name on a contract for a live show in Vegas, Amanda knows she has to get away. Going back to her childhood home, to the safety of her father and her sister, is her best option. But returning means facing some of the ghosts from her past, including Tommy Belfiore, a handsome firefighter, and the only man she ever truly loved. Two sisters. Two extraordinary gifts. One chance at happiness. Will they be brave enough to take it?

Winning Numbers by Paul Romhany Pdf

The idea of predicting raffle ticket numbers, chosen at random by audience members, can be found in 13 Steps to Mentalism. However, the original method required an offstage assistant. For the past twenty years, Paul has been developing and performing his version of this amazing effect, without the need for an offstage assistant. This one person routine is easy to perform, and like all of Paul's work, is taken from real-world working situations. The method is highly practical, and so easy to perform, you can put this to your act straight away. Paul explains THREE different versions of this routine that he has been performing on cruise ships, private functions and trade shows. Additional tips are included by Wayne Rogers and TC Tahoe, both of whom have now added Winning Numbers to their own repertoire. Effect One: A prediction is handed out to an audience member at the beginning of the show. At anytime during the performance, a bowl of two hundred tickets are handed out, with three spectators each choosing their own ticket. The prediction is then read out, and the winning numbers match the ticket numbers chosen by the spectators. Effect Two: A prediction with three raffle tickets inside is given to an audience member to hold. A bowl of raffle tickets is handed out and three different audience members each take one ticket. The three prediction tickets match the numbers of the three random tickets chosen by the spectators. Effect Three: A large envelope is hanging on stage. A bowl or raffle tickets is passed through the audience, with five people each taking out, and looking at the numbers on their tickets. The envelope is opened by an audience member and a large piece of paper with raffle ticket numbers is read out, they match the ticket numbers chosen by the five spectators. Key points: No assistants No stooges Practical methods for all working conditions Perfect for stage, cabaret, corporate and private house parties Easy to perform Packs small, plays big Uses everyday, common items Extremely commercial and unique

Who Wrote the Book of Love? by Lee Siegel Pdf

Who Wrote the Book of Love? is acclaimed novelist Lee Siegel's comedic chronicle of the sexual life of an American boy in Southern California in the 1950s. Starting at the beginning of the decade, in the year that Stalin announced that the Soviet Union had developed an atomic bomb, the book opens with a child's first memory of himself. Closing at the end of the decade, when Pat Boone's guide to dating, 'Twixt Twelve and Twenty, topped the bestseller list, the book culminates just moments before the boy experiences for the first time what he had learned from a book read to him by his mother was called "coitus or sexual intercourse or sometimes, less formally, just making love." Between the initial overwhelmingly erotic recollection and the final climactic moment, all is sex—beguiling and intractable, naughty and sweet. Who Wrote the Book of Love? is about the subversive sexual imaginations of children. And, as such, it is about the origins of love. Vignettes from the author's childhood provide the material for the construction of what is at once comic fiction, imaginative historical reportage, and an ironically nostalgic confession. The book evokes the tone and tempo of a decade during which America was blatantly happy, wholesome, and confident, and yet, at the same time, deeply fearful of communism and nuclear holocaust. Siegel recounts both the cheer and the paranoia of the period and the ways in which those sentiments informed wondering about sex and falling in love. "Part of my plan," Mark Twain wrote in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, "has been to try to pleasantly remind adults of what they once were themselves, and of how they felt and thought and talked." With the same motive, Lee Siegel has written what Twain might have composed had he been Jewish, raised in Beverly Hills in the 1950s, and joyously obsessed with sex and love.

Lola is ready to give up when sexy billionaire Morgan Slade struts into her shop. He promises to teach her more about herself than she could have ever imagined, including how to control her dangerous hands.
