Bewitched

by Constance O'Day-Flannery

Book Overview

If there's one thing successful career woman Suzanne Griffin and her New Age friend Leslie agree on, it's that chivalry is dead and men aren't what they used to be--until Leslie offers to conjure up a lover from yesteryear. Suddenly, there he is: Ian Stewart Chandler, a lawyer from turn-of-the-century America, and as handsome as a screen heartthrob. So what if he's younger than Suzanne, a chauvinist to the core, and mad as hell for being jettisoned...

Customer Reviews

Raw Deal

Hey - I am reading the reviews here of a book that I adore and the reviews are unkind and I think, unfair. This book is pure fantasy. For readers who are reading a book about time travel to say that casting a spell to make your perfect man is silly,.....well - that is just silly. If you are reading and willing to escape...then jump in and escape. Truth be told - I read this book long before I ever met my husband and as a twenty something - I made a little spice "mix" of my own. This book is magic and whimsy and tons of fun. Read and enjoy......

Unbelievably Believable!

There was a bit of every man I know, from the age of six to sixty in Ian. He reacted in ways that were so human, you couldn't help but empathize with him. The way the "conjurers" dressed him, the way they related to him, tongue-in-cheek, always, so if he didn't turn out to be real, they could just blame it on the wine. This book was a blast of New Age high spirits in my mundane, well-ordered life! I have a friend who would enjoy sharing just such an adventure with me, so that made the book all the more enjoyable. Ms. Flannery has been a favorite of mine for years. She has a way of taking characters out of the mold some writers put them in and breathing life into them. The men don't always react the same in her books to where you are reading the same book, just different title. There are always so many differences in the women that you know she is definitly a keen observer of people.

Funny and up to date with the times

Again, Constance writes a different form, but with a sense of humour and dealing with issues that are current. Two best friends, different lives, yet what can happen when girlfriends can get together. A really good read to let you escape and dream.

Tremendously entertaining

I loved this book and have read it at least twice. It's a great little fantasy escape from the everday and I loved the characters. They were beleivable and the author did a great job of bringing them to life. A wonderful book for curling up by the fire on a cold winter night.
