Ebook description

Social outcast Sammy Dawson won't let his physical handicap keep him down. He's going to ask a beautiful girl on a date and prove he's as normal as any other guy. But as secret curator of the gate to Fairy Land, Merith Sweets isn't normal. In fact, she isn't even human. The town's "dwarf" is about to learn the flaws that make him a dud in one world can make him the perfect date in another.

Spells & Tells Trailer
This is a short teaser about my upcoming novel "Spells & Tells." It is a dark urban fantasy about a very special young man, Sami, his dream girl, Merith, and the unique sweet shop which serves as a gateway between two worlds. Romance and danger entwine in a collision of magic and reality. All heroes want the fairytale ending, but what happens when the fairytale turns too real?

Review by: Alek on Feb. 14, 2012 :
If you like chocolates, romance, and fantasy this is the short story for you. It's creative, the voice of Sami Dawson is comical as well as personable. It sets up a word full of intrigue while standing completely on its own. The author writes with a rare beautiful fluidity and structure that seems to pull you along as if by magical influence. This is funny, cute, and romantic. Everyone loves a good tale about the underdog prevailing and after meeting Sami Dawson you can't help but root for the young man. Fantastic and hilarious characterization. This story is a keeper.

Review by: parlance on Feb. 12, 2011 :
Thoroughly enjoyed this "different" story. I would love to read more about Sami Dawson. The story sets up a world that seems at first to be like ours, but is evidently in a parallel dimension. The transition from everyday world to magical one is handled in a believable and fascinating way. I sure hope this turns out to be the first chapter of a novel. However, it is a satisfying read as a stand-alone story.
