Paranormal romance before paranormal romance was invented...

Hmm, this copy was from 1991 - and it shows! It is one of the most ridiculous books I have read in a very long time. An Aussie angel, an almost pre-pubescent height challenged witch, and a big shot lawyer. Nothing could go wrong, right? Well, it starts off as intriguing, then plummets into nothing more than a mix of Bewitched episode and something from a '90's tv series of a bunch of high school wannabes.
Stereotyping the Aussie was embarrassing to my country! A swaggering Crocodile Dundee type with a twit would be the best way to describe him. The 'witch' was starting to come across as something from Nora Roberts' trilogies. Honestly, anyone could be that dumb? Seiously? Then the swaggering hero of the day has no clue as to his own sanity is not really all that believable.
I suppose if you were to squint your eyes per se, then the book might come across as a fun adventure but for my liking it was droll, drawn out and positively dull. No spark of anything enticing for me.
I gave it two stars only because I liked the cat. Then again, I like cats full stop.

I had this book decades ago and gave it up then I thought about it one day and decided I wanted to read it again. Well it did not disappoint. I am so glad I bought it again and I will not be giving it up this time around. I'll probably want to read it again in the future.

What an idiotic book! I'm glad there's a sequel where the h croaks and the H replaces her with the OW, his former law partner who he should have married in the first place!
