Captivated (The Donovan Legacy #1)

Summary:

His interest in her was purely professional . . . Or so he told himself. Nash Kirkland had sought out the alluring Morgana Donovan to help him research his latest screenplay, though the hardheaded skeptic didn't believe for a minute she was what she professed to be. But, as Morgana revealed herself to him, Nash found himself falling under her bewitching spell. Nash had never trusted his feelings and always kept them in check. So how could he be sure the irresistible passion he felt for Morgana was real and not just some conjurer's trick? (Summary and cover courtesy of goodreads.com)

Review:

This was a very fun book with just a flair of the supernatural and fantasy.  I liked that Morgana doesn’t push her beliefs or skills, but is quietly amused by those who doubt without coming across as condescending.  As Nash tries to get inspiration for his next movie, he finds quickly that he’s biting off more than he can chew.  When Morgana finally decides she’s had enough, I laughed out loud.

The best part of all the characters throughout the book is that they’re unabashedly themselves.  In romance novels one of the characters so often has low self-esteem and it can get repetitive.  Of course there has to be drama and conflict, but it’s nice when it’s about something else too.

Warning: Contains sexual content.

Rating: 4 stars!

Who should read it? Romance fans who like the flair of subtle fantasy thrown in.
