Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze.

What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life.

Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

A great Ross Macdonald novel often has a really intricate mystery. For example, in 'The Galton Case', the mystery is so complex that it keeps you hooked from start to finish.

The characters, especially his detective Lew Archer, are well - fleshed out with their own motives and backstories, which adds depth to the story.
