title: A Witch's Handbook of Kisses and Curses
author:  Molly Harper 
description: Harper (The Care and Feeding of Stray Vampires, 2012) once again invites readers into Half-Moon Hollow, Kentucky, where, with good humor, both human and paranormal people usually get along wonderfully well. Nola Leary, originally from Boston but raised by her extended family of witches in Ireland, has been sent to the Hollow to find four magical artifacts that are at the heart of a centuries-old feud between her family, the McGavocks, and their rivals, the Kerrigans. Nola, a medical empath and nurse practitioner, is trying to keep her abilities under wraps as she searches the bookstore formerly owned by the man the McGavocks had entrusted with the artifacts, but she keeps running into her neighbor, Jed Trudeau. He looks like a Greek god, talks like a good ole country boy, and is always finding her in interesting situations. Nolas quest takes her places she never imagined, giving her a whole new view of family she didnt know she had. Delightful fun with a warm, fuzzy feel. --Diana Tixier Herald

  “ARE YOU GOING TO FEED ON ME TONIGHT?”
  “It depends.”
  “On what?”
  “On you.” His gaze moved over her, lingering on her lips, the swell of her breasts beneath the
  white silk shirt. “I’ll leave you alone tonight in exchange for one kiss, freely given.”
  “A kiss?” Was he kidding? How could he think about kissing at a time like this?
  Gideon nodded. It had been a long time since he’d had a woman. He could have compelled those
  the witch brought him. He could have taken them by force. Neither option appealed to him. Nor had
  any of the women. But this one … there was something about her that intrigued him like no other. “So,
  what do you say?”
  She eyed him warily. “How do I know you’ll stop with a kiss?”
  He shrugged. “I guess you’ll just have to trust me …”
