The Problem with Magic

Meet Dar.Dar hates magic. Years ago, Dar was dating Joel, a talented magician she met at the beginning of college. But then, Joel told her he was going away to study magic at one of the best training programs in the world. But Dar… well, she just wasn't going to fit in with that new life. Because she didn't have magic. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course! So Joel left her behind. These days, Dar's happy. She's living in her hometown of Salem, Massachusetts in a cute condo with her girlfriend, Gretel. She's got a normal job planning events for a hotel, she plays softball in the spring, and she can keep any and all magic on the outskirts of her life. It's been years since Joel left and Dar is happy.But now Joel's back. And despite his claims that he's in town for business and he just came by to say hi, things are going wrong for Dar. And between Joel's presence and a wedding that's threatening to burn down her workplace, it looks like magic might be making a permanent return to her life. The Problem with Magic is 40K words and is Book 1 of the Magic City series.
