After winning a date at a bachelors' auction, Tess, a wealthy socialite, is suddenly caught in the middle of a magical fantasy. Jaxon Richards is much more than a sexy contractor who managed to break past her barriers in just one night. He's the man Tess has been waiting for.only he's not just a man, and it takes a trip across the universe to convince her he really is the wizard he claims to be.

Jaxon knows he never should have touched Tess. But the moment he did, he was lost and living without her is now unfathomable. The way she whispered his name scorched him and when their bodies met, he felt alive for the first time in an unbelievably long time.

Thrown into a whirlwind of desire, Tess is enchanted, surrounded by a dream world where wizards reign and witches strive for supremacy. But most of all she is lost in the magic of Jaxon's sensual spell.

Falling in love is never easy but falling in love with a wizard takes a little magic.

Indigo Spell is a fairly quick, not unpleasant read. If you're looking for steamy love scenes, you'll find them here, for sure. There may, infact be too many of them. As is often the case with erotic novels, the author resorts to some hokey euphemisms for the characters' sex organs (petals of her sheath, anyone?) Still, the characters' encounters will get you riled up.

With that said, the characters lack depth, making it difficult to become invested in their outcomes. I can't help feeling some of the time spent on the sex scenes would have been better spent fleshing out some of the supporting cast a little better. As a result, what should have been two touching scenes at the end of the book lacked conviction and warmth. The book got off to a strong start, then petered out (no pun intended) toward the end. Transitions became sloppy and there's one unnecessary flash back (yay, gratuitous sex!) that I found it hard to care about.

Do I regret reading this? No. Am I invested enough to continue the series? Probably not unless the second book comes up free.

It was ok. It started out really good, charity auction with bachelors for the bidding. Friend bids for her girlfriend Tess who ends up having the winning bid on a sexy construction worker with off the chart sexual chemistry between the two. Turns out he is a wizard and chaos between witches trying to kill Tess, etc. Story didn't really keep my interest in the two main characters as after a while I didn't really care about what happened. I like paranormal stories, but I never connected with the characters and believed in them. The book was categorized as "Erotic" "Sensual" and there was plenty of sex scenes, but I skimmed through the book to the end to find out how the Assembly of Wizards were going to thwart the efforts of the witches on Tess's life and any possible children the witches plan on claiming.

I really tried to get into this book but I couldn't. The concept was good but the execution was lacking. The story was covered up by sex scene upon sex scene. Now I'm not one to turn down a good sex scene but it was overwhelming to the point of exhaustion. The descriptions were comical and uninspiring. I found myself just skipping through just to say I read it.
