Review: Funny, witty, a fun romp of a read

I just finished reading this, and I really cannot make up my mind about it.  It was about a wizard (great looking, rich, and built, of course), who is blindsided by his fiancé, cursed, and then left to rot on a desert island.  3 years have gone past, and a mousy, BBW librarian walks into a strange book shop.  BY CHANCE.  She is given a book, reads the book, and then lands on the island with Sinclair, the wizard.  Of course, our librarian (Samantha) does not believe in magic.  She thinks she is dreaming.  Sinclair eventually makes her believe in magic, and totally believes that she was sent to him to help him break the spell.  The book deals with the trials and tribulations of them trying to figure out how to break the spell.  Eve Langlais has been a favorite author of mine, because of the sassy heroines, and the great banter between her and the hero.  I slogged through this book until I got to about the last 4 chapters. Then I thought the book got a lot better.  I still would recommend this for Eve fans, it just did not have the same level of banter and sassiness that her welcome to H--L series has.  For that reason, I could only give it 4 stars.  I would like to see the books about the rest of the family, though--- there was some very interesting potential for the brother and even for the mom.
