    She’s not who he thought she would be. Not even close. She’s not even one of the females taking part in the hunt. This female is something else entirely. He needs to get her back to his lair for questioning. His people will be interested in all she has to say. At least, that would be the logical, responsible thing to do. Only, he’s not feeling particularly logical at the moment. Not when looking into her blue eyes, or taking in her curvy body. Nope! Screw being responsible! He’s going to try and win her. The only problem is, this particular female isn’t looking for a mate. His superiors won’t be happy with his choice either, but he’s going for it anyway. Contains hot alpha males and therefore strong sexual themes/language

     Alice Blaze is my name, and I'm not exactly your typical sixteen-year-old. My mom disappeared after my birth and my dad was an alcoholic maniac, so I was raised by my protective grandparents in the single house up the hill. The one people only come to visit on Halloween. Because, yeah, apparently, our house is haunted. Naturally. As an orphan living in a spooky house, it’s no surprise that my life has been…eventful. I’ve been inadvertently causing trouble since I was little and it always ends up with something combusting into flames. You know, lighting up the curtains, exploding vials in lab class. And don't get me started with the accidental school fire. Need I say more? The flames really hit the fan when I'm accused of shattering all the windows in the entire school. Of course, that doesn't make sense because it has nothing to do with my burning nemesis. But it doesn’t matter. Expulsion is imminent and my grandparents are fed up with my constant transfers. But then something amazing happens: a letter of invitation lands right onto our doorstep. Or should I say window?

According to the school, that’s what I am. A blazing hot witch. Let's hope that's all I am, and that this first semester goes a whole lot smoother than I'm imagining. Otherwise, my whole life might just go up in smoke.

    Harry Stratton Trevelyan. She'd hired him when the foundation had needed the advice of the best expert in America on new inventions. Brilliant, tall, and unexpectedly handsome Harry was the best--at getting under her skin. She had bubbled over about a device for lunar power. He shot it down. She went wild for a bright-eyed young inventor. Harry called him a con. They were getting nowhere fast when he suddenly invited her to his condominium for tea. There she was thinking of giving him his pink slip. There he was serving her Darjeeling, a sexy smile, a smoldering gaze, and an outrageous proposal--that thy have an affair!Harry had been burned before by love. He wanted no pulls on his heart, no intrusions on his time, no dizzying of his logical mind. But he couldn't get Molly Abberwick out from under his skin. His brilliant deduction: have a simple fling, "just one of those bedroom things." It was a fail-safe formula for a no-commitment/no-demands affair. After all, the chemistry was right. What could go wrong?Everything, of course. Molly was ready to go to battle with Harry, not to bed with him. Worse, she believed only an absolutely, positively impossible man would think that a relationship could be planned, predicted, and run like a science project.

And when the pranks escalated into violence and a mysterious the stalker threatened her life, Molly needed Harry's sixth sense, and his extraordinary family, to help.
