review 1: That Touch of Magic is a true page turner and on par with what I have come to expect from Lucy March and her alter ego Lani Diane Rich. The characters are smart, charismatic, and real. The sarcastic heroine, Stacy, is a lovable but flawed character that makes her interesting and easy to relate to. At first glance she is the town harlot, but it soon becomes clear she is caring almost to a fault and is only protecting herself from her crazy Mom and a ten year old broken heart. Leo is a strong romantic hero that was as well written, complicated, and interesting as the heroine. Often with books in the romance genre I want to smack the hero across the head for his stupidity, but with Leo I was always wanting to give him a hug. Even the antagonist made me feel sorry for hi... morem at times. March is able to write emotion and humor better than any other women’s lit author I’ve come across. Hardly a page goes by where I’m not laughing, crying, or both.
review 2: I just could not get into the romance that much and I blame it on Leo. To take off for awhile to get your head straight it one thing, but to think that you need to become a priest and then to be gone 10 years and want to reconcile with the girl you left behind - uh uh. I have a friend who got in an argument with her first husband and being very young said, "I'm going to my mom's house!". Well, his response was to join the Army. Dick head move and Leo does a dick head move. Too little too late is a popular saying for a reason! So anyway, because of my inability to forgive Leo and not caring what Stacy feels or thinks about the matter, I give this book 3 stars. less
