THE AS YOU WISH SERIES shows what can go wrong when a magic lamp, a wish-granting genie, and backstage life in the theater all collide. HOW NOT TO MAKE A WISH (Mira - 978-0778327370; formerly titled THERE'S THE RUB) begins the series, introducing Kira Franklin, a stage manager caught in a dead-end dinner theater job when her true wish is to work on a production of Romeo and Juliet. HOW NOT TO MAKE A WISH will be in stores October 2009.
THE JANE MADISON SERIES is the story of a librarian who finds out that she's a witch. GIRL'S GUIDE TO WITCHCRAFT (Red Dress Ink - ISBN 0-373-89607-7) begins the series, introducing Jane to her magical abilities - as well as to her warder, her familiar, and the love of her life. The story continues in SORCERY AND THE SINGLE GIRL (Red Dress Ink - ISBN 978-0-373-89563-2), when Jane is invited to join her exclusive local Coven. Jane's story concludes in MAGIC AND THE MODERN GIRL (Red Dress Ink - ISBN 978-0-373-89577-9), when Jane discovers the consequences of letting her powers lie fallow for just a little too long.
