I'm just a stressed-out attorney in a pink Volkswagen, stranded in a magical town I didn't believe could exist-and falling hard for my orc mechanic, who's all muscle, zero bodysuit.

I'm on my way from Chicago to Seattle for a legal conference, having decided to drive myself because I need more fun in my life, according to my sister, when I pass through a strange, shimmering barrier. My pink Volkswagen dies right after, and I have to walk to the closest town-Evershift Haven. I'm stunned to see how all-out these folks go for Halloween to appeal to the tourists. I'm even more surprised by just how hot the orc mechanic promising to fix my car within a week is, but I imagine he's a pasty geek under all that makeup and muscled bodysuit. Right?

About that. Evershift Haven isn't some gimmicky tourist town. Turns out, magic is real, and when their resident witch gets distracted, the barrier between their world and ours sometimes drops long enough for a lonely attorney who hates her job to slip through and discover magic awaits. And Throk isn't some pasty geek. All those green muscles and drool-worthy body belong to him, my orc mechanic.

I'm stuck in a place I never imagined could exist and having the time of my life. When it's time to go back to the real world? I don't want to think about that right now...
