Call It Magic was an enjoyable story with a little bit of magic, a little bit of drama and a little bit of love. ~ Kitty – Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews
Synopsis:
Katy MacBain moved to Spellbound Falls with secrets she plans to keep. The newest member of the Fire and Rescue Team, she disappeared for three weeks before arriving on the job. She doesn’t understand why Gunnar Wolfe—the town’s interim fire chief and her boss—seems determined to uncover the truth of what happened to her during that time. Or why she’s more attracted to him than she’s ever been to any other man.
A confident firefighter, Gunnar Wolfe doesn’t give up—and he’s resolved to find out what’s wrong with the mysterious and beautiful Katy. Since she is the newest member of his team, he’s naturally protective of her, but he’s surprised to find himself captivated by the tenacious and talented woman who is so…magical.
I’m still not sure how I feel about Call It Magic. I was a little confused in the beginning and then things started taking shape as the story went on. I was still confused towards the middle of the book because I wasn’t sure about Gunner or if he did have any magical abilities. But I soldiered on and started really enjoying the story. I’m not sure what Gunner really did for a living. I know he traveled a lot, I know he found people, I know he had a crazy aunt that livened things up in his life. But who was he really? Was he a firefighter? Did he belong in the position that he was in? How did he get where he was? I know that he was compassionate and fiercely loyal and falling in love with Katy. But, was he magical?
Katy was a little confusing at times as well. She ran hot and cold. It wasn’t until you heard her whole story that you understood a little bit of it. She, too, was as loyal as loyal could get. She tried her best to integrate herself with her new team and the townspeople. Her gift allowed her to see and feel things others wouldn’t. That was an asset. And, she thought she knew just who Gunner was. In the end, she found out just how wrong she was, and she couldn’t have been happier.
It’s hard to do a review on a story that you felt confused in. Maybe if I read some of the other Spellbound Falls books, I would have understood it a little more so that’s on me. But it was enjoyable. I liked the bits of magic and watching Gunner and Katy do their little dance around each other. The men in the firehouse were fun and I truly enjoyed Aunt May. As for the story, I felt it was a little disjointed and that may have thrown me off. But, all in all, I enjoyed Call It Magic.
