It’s the oldest tale in the book. Girl meets boy. Boy needs enchanted family heirloom. Girl startles boy. Boy turns into possum.

Wait, what book is this??

Terry

Terry Caldwell knows he got the short end of the stick when it comes to magic. His grandmother was a powerful witch, his father is a respected potion-maker, and he… he can turn into a possum. So, when he hears that Nana’s Sea Shack (as it’s lovingly known) holds family relics that will change his abilities forever, Terry knows he has to get them back. The problem? Someone else is living there now, someone who won’t understand why a strange man suddenly wants to get into her isolated ocean-front cottage and root through every nook and cranny.

Maggie

Maggie Innesbrough followed her dreams—and they led her to a rickety hurricane-front house in isolated Vandalia Point, North Carolina. It wouldn’t be so bad—except for the loneliness, the fact that she can’t get the smell of little old lady perfume and potpourri out of the walls, and the wildlife itself seems to resent her. Especially that one oddly obsessed little possum that won’t let her get on with cleaning out the place. The one she’s stuck nursing back to health after she almost flattened it during an incident with a baseball bat and a power outage.

Nothing is Im-possum-ble…

Terry’s finally found a use for his skills—breaking and entering. The problem? He’s better at the breaking part, but at least he made it into the house. Since he’s now an injured possum being looked after by a distracted and guilt-ridden Maggie, he has time to search for the Caldwell Family relics—and fall in love with the woman who keeps trying to destroy them. Can he find a way to get his paws on the magic he needs before it’s too late? Or is the real magic in Maggie, his unlikely soul mate? With luck, love, and the ability to hang upside down from the porch rails, nothing is im-possum-ble.
