BLITZ
with author Caroline Mickelson
Good day to you all! I have a book to share
with you all that sounds like a lot of fun. I am not going to waste time
explaining it because it is all in the blurb below. But it caught my attention
because it is a romantic comedy and I do not read many of those. I also like
that it is a novella so can be read quickly. And the plot is pretty cute
sounding. I am all for a bit of snark so I am thinking that this story is right
up my alley; sort of a nice break from my usual genres. But not too long of a
break. *wink* I hope you all enjoy learning about WITCH WEIGH. And be sure to read to the end for a special FREE offer. Please allow me
to introduce to the blog:

**BLURB**
Tessa Von
Hellengaard is a real witch. Magical spells aside, she’s snarky and selfish,
and the other witches in her silent spell coven are fed up with her. Their plan
to reform Tessa involves taking away her magic, saddling her with one hundred
extra pounds, and sending her to a weight loss spa.
For good
measure they call in Liam Kennedy, a charming and sexy fairy godfather, to
teach her some manners. Desperate to regain her magic and determined to shed
the weight, Tessa soon realizes that protecting her heart from Liam will prove
to be her greatest challenge.

**EXCERPT**
“Hey, lady, anyone ever tell you
you’re a real witch?”
“More times than you can imagine.”
Contessa Von Hellengaard, Tessa to her few friends and many enemies alike, eyed
the obstinate construction worker who blocked the path of her sleek black
Mercedes.
She wondered how this mere mortal
would like being turned into a fluffy skunk. Her fingers itched to work their
magic, but she kept them gripped on the steering wheel. She was already in
enough trouble with the Upper Hallows Witch Council without casting what they
would consider another unnecessary spell. If she was detained any longer she’d
be late for her meeting with said council. Tessa knew they were already ticked
off enough without her adding another infraction to their precious list.
She leaned out the window. “Remove
your overfed self from my way immediately. I need to use this road and I don’t
have time for your ridiculous detour.”
“Guess you should’ve used your
broomstick then because there ain’t no way I’m letting your car get through
here.” He crossed his beefy arms over his chest.
He seemed altogether too amused with
his juvenile humor for Tessa’s liking. Broomstick indeed. She revved the motor
to let him know she meant business.
He couldn’t say he hadn’t been
warned.
She pushed up her black lace sleeves
and pointed to the orange and white barricade. “Last warning. Remove yourself
and that thing from my way.”
He laughed at her. Laughed. At her.
She narrowed her eyes. This sorry
excuse for a government employee was not going to make her late for her
meeting. Removing him from her path, she decided, was a very necessary act
indeed. She could make the council members understand. But only if she got
there on time.
With the tip of her red lacquered
fingernail she traced a circle in her palm, silently reciting the spell that
would get her what she wanted. A small, satisfied smile tugged at her lips as
the man in front of her began to levitate. She stroked her index finger
sideways to help direct his ascension. His shocked expression and angry torrent
of curse words bothered her not at all. He continued to fuss and kick even
after he was hooked on to the high crane by the back of his overalls. At over
forty feet above the ground she could barely make out his foul words.
Tessa flicked her finger across her
palm with one last quick swipe and waited while the barricade went flying to
the side of the road and crashed on a pile of rocks.
She waved farewell to the
construction worker as she slipped her Mercedes into drive. The fool would be
wise to quit struggling or he’d soon have a painful wedgie.
Silly mortal. He had no reason to
panic. Someone would be along to get him down. Eventually.
So what do you think? Sound like a fun read? I like the
twist in the story. Sounds like it may end up being a story of self-discovery
and second chances. Tell me if you have any experience with this author. If
not, what did you like about the post? Are you likely to read the story? Your
feedback is always welcome.
