Product Description
Product Description
When Leo turns up at Emma's thirtieth birthday dinner unforgivably late and horribly drunk, she can't help wishing things were different. If only someone could wave a magic wand over him and turn him into a reliable, considerate boyfriend it would certainly save her a lot of trouble.
Then Leo's path crosses with a decidedly unusual girl called Isobel and, as he falls under her spell, Emma sees him altering before her very eyes. Soon she regrets wishing for a 'new' Leo at all. And, surely, Isobel can't be for real? One thing's clear, if Emma's going to win him back, she'll need to do some changing of her own...

having read the other reviews Im a little shocked. I have read most of Carole Matthews books and have to say I thought this was brilliant. Personally speaking I think it's one of her best, It was a pleasant surprise to read about a fairy involved in a romantic novel with humour added. Well written for the adult, brings out the child in all of us.

I really enjoyed The Chocolate Lover's Club, and The Chocolate Lover's Diet, but I wasn't so enamoured of this one. It was enjoyable but the introduction of magic did not quite fit somehow. If you like magic in your books Christina Jones hits the right note for me.
That said I finished it and found it entertaining. Leo and his friends were realistically drawn and believable. Oddly enough I was less convinced by Emma. She did learn from her own mistakes and change by the end of the book but she wasn't quite believable. I did like some of the scenes with Isobel - the fairy - and people's reactions to her were interesting.
Not as good as the two Chocolate books, but still good light reading.

I've read all of Carole Matthews books and I found this very different to what she usually writes, but still really enjoyed it.
If you're the kind of girl who likes fairy tales then this is the book for you.

Unsure
This is a well enough written book and easily enough read but I have a couple of quibbles. The main couple split up as is their long-standing pattern. Read more

Better than "PS I love you"
Very strange, Magical & funny book-I am going through them all, but so far this is the Best. Enjoy. Read this in 1 day, how sad am I.

Hmm, Ok, but not much more.
This is OK, but not the best. It's fairly typical of some writers who are on the publishing treadmill, trying to churn out a book a year or so. Read more

Magic and Chick lit
This book is a totally different style to Carole Matthews other books, but if you have ever wished for magic and chick lit in the same book, this is for you.

The only magic is in the title
I read this book last week on holiday and was very disappointed - it was awful, even for a beach read. The only 'magic' is in the title. Read more

Another "magicial" book - Yawn
I didn't realise that the title was meant to be taken literally, because there's something about these magical books that truly gets on my nerves. Read more

Fanciful fairy nonsense
I have read all of her books before and this has to rate as one of her worst! Has she simply run out of ideas? Read more
