Excerpt Two:

 

‘Exiled to Love’ by Jae El Foster

 

“I wonder…” she thought aloud as she started down the stairs to the front door, “what kinds of jobs are open and hiring on a Saturday?”

 

There were, of course, thousands of possible jobs out there. She considered what it would be like to be the CEO of a large corporation, or to be a successful fashion designer. Maybe, if she played her cards right, she could star in a motion picture or land a recording contract by dinnertime.

 

Those, she knew, were true possibilities for her – if she was able to use her powers. Without her powers, she felt pretty useless in the workplace. Then, she thought, every employed mortal must have felt useless before getting that first job. This was no different than that. They had found a use, and so would she.

 

She just wasn’t sure where or how.

 

“A latte…” she mumbled as she stepped outside her home and walked to the sidewalk. “A latte would definitely help me think right.”

 

Normally, she would have just teleported to the coffee shop of her choice – no matter where in the world it was. Now, she didn’t have that option, and as she lived in a suburban neighborhood without a public transportation system, she’d have to walk.

 

“I’m glad I went with sensible shoes,” she noted with a cringe.

 

As she walked, she noticed several neighbors outside, enjoying the sunny Saturday afternoon. Donna knew none of them. She never ventured on foot anywhere – especially around this neighborhood. The neighbors either waved at her, smiled, or both. With gritted teeth, she returned the gestures. Her eyes scoped the streets, the street signs, the beautiful houses and the well-groomed yards. Nowhere did she see a café.

 

“Latte?” she called to an old man on his porch. “Where are the lattes?”

 

The old man, obviously hard of hearing, waved at her and smiled.

 

Slowly spinning in a circle, she looked at the other random, unknown faces and asked, “Where is coffee? You know… a coffee shop? A café? Lattes? Cappuccino? I need caffeine!”

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

My review: A Bewitching tale! A young witch exiled to the mortal world is forced to live as a mortal—with no powers! She must learn to do everything mortals do, starting with getting a job. Perhaps her sexy and charming neighbor could have the answer.

A woman wakes up in the hospital after being saved by a handsome savior.

Fun and flirty tales! Nice Rom-Com stories that you can give you a quick fix.

 

My rating: 4 stars
