Teresa Roblin does it again!  Her e-novel, “Now You See It …,” is as funny and entertaining as her “Hocus Pocus.”  The author tells a great story in this laugh-out-loud novel about the Santorelli sisters.   The novel is written so you don’t have to read either it first, but I highly recommend that you not miss a great romantic comedy by reading both.

Sarah Santorelli puts up walls when it comes to romantic attachments.  Her fear of being hurt leads her to block romance before it can even begin.  A lot of it has to do with being hurt by her ex-boyfriend Anthony Mancini, a workaholic who put Sarah second to his company.  Her vow that she does not need love in her life leads her Aunt Lilly to bring out her spell book again.  This is the same spell book that her Aunt used to get her sister Amanda to come out of her shell, so outspoken that she could not control what came out of her mouth.  All ended well with that spell so Lilly casts a spell on Sarah to remove the layers to help Sarah find love. 

Those layers in Aunt Lilly’s spell turn out to be Sarah’s clothes!!! Every time she feels vulnerable around Anthony an item of clothing disappears.  This happens a lot because Sarah and Anthony end up chaperoning her Aunt and Anthony’s Grandmother on a European cruise for a week.  Anthony decides to convince Sarah that he has changed on this cruise and she spends the week terrified that her clothes are going to disappear in public.  The spell and two meddling geriatric relatives lead Sarah and Anthony into many adventures on their European vacation and to rekindling their love. 

I highly recommend this e-book, “Now You See It …,” to anyone who enjoys a good romantic comedy.  Teresa Roblin is a very-talented writer and I hope to read more of her stories in the future.  Maybe the girls can turn the tables in the next story and cast a spell on Aunt Lilly to help her find love….
