Could It Be Magic

A Kind of Magic Part-time witch, full-time glamorous high-flyer Esme Mcleod rubs shoulders with celebrities for a living, has a sort-of-boyfriend ...and just enough magic in her fingertips to solve life's little irritations; why shouldn't she cast a little spell to catch the busy barman's attention, or to summon a latte to aid her all-nighters? Called back to her small Scottish home town and meddling family, stiletto-clad Esme is way out of her comfort zone... But Esme must embrace her abilities as a witch, or watch her family lose their beloved café. Except Esme has never claimed to be a whizz at witchcraft, and her charms are starting to go awry - she certainly never meant to cast a love spell on her ex-boyfriend Jamie! It's time for urgent lessons in magic as well as love - it seems there's only so much that muttering a few words over cupcake batter will fix...

For Harmony McLeod - Harry, for short - life is going swimmingly in Edinburgh. Her exclusive spa, specialising in 'spiritual counselling' alongside massages and yoga (read: solving clients' problems with a little bit of harmless witchcraft) is flourishing... Until she discovers one of her employees dead. This spells out real trouble - trouble that even a perfectly cast spell can't fix because the person out to destroy Harry is using magic too - magic... Luckily DI Louise Baxter is more than willing to go the extra mile to help Harry solve the mystery and she's pretty easy on the eyes too... Don't miss the series: 1 - Bewitched, Bothered & Bewildered 2 - 3 - Baby It's Cold Outside 4 - I'll Be There For You 5 - A Spoonful of Sugar (novella).

For better or much, much worse... Esme and Jamie have finally got their perfect wedding day planned. Beautiful snowy landscape - check. Amazing venue - check. Stunning dress - check. But when an avalanche seals off their gorgeous mountain hometown from the outside world, their dream day starts to look more like a nightmare. Especially when Jamie's ex turns up on their doorstep with a surprise neither of them expected! Whilst Esme's magical powers can solve a lot of problems, it's starting to look like their big day is doomed! Is Esme and Jamie's wedding simply not meant to be, or can they still make it down the aisle, against all the odds?

When good witchcraft goes bad... Harry (short for Harmony) McLeod never thought motherhood would be for her. But now that she and wife Louise have adopted twins Finlay and Fiona, she can't imagine life without her gorgeous little family. But just as the toddlers start to discover their own witching abilities - quite handy when they want to summon toys with just a wiggle of their fingers! - Harry's own powers seem to have vanished. With her abilities gone and Louise working all hours, Harry's perfect world is starting to unravel. She knows she needs to rediscover her happiness to get her powers back, but with local charmer (and witch) Richard trying to steal her spa business from under her feet, how can she fight back?

Competing with witches spells disaster... When popular baking show Britain Bakes decides to televise their latest series on location in Claddach, Esme is thrilled. This will finally put her beloved hometown back on the tourist map, and revive the family's cafe business. But when her cousin Harmony insists that novice baker Esme join her as a contestant on the show, she panics - with no witching allowed on prime-time TV, this will be a question of focus over hocus pocus... So once filming gets underway, Esme is surprised to find that she is actually enjoying herself, until strange 'accidents' start to befall the other contestants. Are they just run-of-the-mill baking mishaps, or is someone trying to sabotage the show? It looks like Esme may need to wave her magic spatula after all...
