No Room For Change — Mari Freeman

Chiwa Talisman Series Book Two (previously published as Hot, Hard & Hexing)

Sonja Ambercroft is the good girl of the family but kidnappers want the Chiwa Talisman in exchange for her cousin. What else is a good girl to do? She steals the powerful amulet from her sister (breaking about 20 supernatural laws in the process).
She also shouldn't use the talisman to boost her own power, should she? How was she to know doing so would allow the Dreamstalker to invade her mind and gives her sexy fantasies?

Ray Burgess was sent onto exile in the mountains for misusing his magic. The last thing he needs is a Halfling on his property trying to complete an illegal spell. He should turn her in. He should walk away. He should…

But when magic is drawn to magic it's impossible to ignore.

Together they fight their growing attraction, and each other while working to save the young girl and prevent the Dreamstalker from using the talisman to boost his own evil powers.
