Set in the year 2039, Lily Barnett is a skillful (but ditzy) painter when she is not searching for her keys or whatever she has misplaced. She fears that she'll never find true love in the great city of New Chicago. Lily desperately wants to find love. She day dreams about the man in her painting jumping off the canvas and sweeping her off her feet.One day she stumbled into a magic shop looking for something to cure her aching heart. She sets her eyes on a love potion and eagerly guzzles it down without even learning about the side effects.Lily's neighbor and best-friend, Daniel Harris - who is also the building manager, desperately falls for her quirkiness. He has been in love with her for years, but has never told her because he is hiding a dark magical secret of his own.While Lily adjusts to her newfound magical powers, she becomes even closer to Daniel, but then she learns that she may not be able to control herself, which could be a danger to Daniel.By the book cover I would have never has guessed that Smitten Image was set in the near future. Most paranormal books are about vampires or werewolves, so I more than appreciate author Pam B. Morris for creating an original world full of witchcraft. The characters are likable and the dialogue is witty. Overall, I enjoyed reading Smitten Image and I'm looking forward to the author's next book.Note - I received a free copy of Smitten Image in exchange for an honest review.
