As an executive assistant at Magic, Spells, and Illusions, Inc., she&#8217;s seen more than her share of fantastical occurrences. A mere Manhattan mortal, Katie is no wizard, but she&#8217;s a wiz at exposing &#8220;hokum&#8221; pocus, cloaked lies, and deceptive enchantments. And she&#8217;s fallen under the all-too-human spell of attraction to Owen, a hunky wizard and coworker. Owen, however, is preoccupied. Someone has broken into his office and disrupted top-secret files, and it reeks of an inside job. CEO Merlin (yes, the Merlin) and taps Katie and her special ability to uncover the magical mole.<br><br>Keeping her feelings in check while sleuthing alongside Owen, Katie is shocked to discover that her immunity to magic is waning, putting her in grave danger. Soon she&#8217;s surrendering to the charms and enchantments of everyone and everything around her, including a killer pair of red stilettos. Katie must now conjure up her natural instincts to get to the bottom of the break-in, regain her power, and win the wizard of her dreams. 2936734 25 4 2006 Once Upon Stilettos: A Novel total:665|5:171|4:318|3:147|2:25|1:4| 665 2622 952 94 600567 0345481275 9780345481276 659 94 3.94 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176169642m/600567.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/600567.Once_Upon_Stilettos_A_Novel 4 0 false Sun Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 28 21:14:09 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 28 21:19:55 -0800 2009 more...]]> 600567 0345481275 9780345481276 659 94 3.94 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176169642m/600567.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/600567.Once_Upon_Stilettos_A_Novel 4 1 false Tue Jun 23 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 23 21:49:50 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 23 21:51:20 -0700 2009 more...]]> 600567 0345481275 9780345481276 659 94 3.94 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176169642m/600567.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/600567.Once_Upon_Stilettos_A_Novel 4 0 false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Aug 27 13:37:29 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 13:47:41 -0700 2009
