Longing for You: Steamy Second Chance Romance 
Touched by Magic Book 1
by Kelli McCracken 



Music isn’t his only desire

Theo McCabe’s teenage years were consumed by his fascination with music and Cassie Clarke. After a fight cost him both, he was forced to move out of state, leaving Cassie clueless to the truth. Now he’s back in Savannah, recording his first album. Six years hasn’t diminished his need for her, but with a deadline looming, he only has one shot to make things right.

Cassie doesn’t believe in fairytales or the myth surrounding her new antique hair comb. Legend says the owner will find its soul’s counterpart, but Cassie isn’t ready to fall in love. She’s eager to debunk the myth until she and Theo reconnect. Toned, tatted, and tenacious, he’s making it difficult to focus on her job or the fact that he’s her client.

Though Cassie doesn't want to fall for Theo, when he enlists her help in reuniting two of their friends, Cassie can’t refuse him or the chemistry between them. Theo is desperate to have one night with Cassie, but doing so means exposing his heart to the only woman who could break it. After all, he's not the only man in Cassie's life.

Momma Says: 3 stars⭐⭐⭐

A little bit rocker romance, and a little bit second chance romance, except it's not really a second chance in terms of this couple getting back together since they were never actually a couple. Instead, it's a second chance at what Theo once thought unattainable - a chance to be with Cassie. The story is a good mix of sweet and sexy, and I liked the added element of possible magic. The angst comes by way of miscommunication and misunderstandings, and wasn't over the top, just a bit predictable. My problem lay in the couple Theo and Cassie are trying to fix up. There's a lot of talk about Jonah and Ally breaking up up with hints at what caused it, but no real answers. As this one is labeled as book one in the series, I didn't realize there was a prequel with Jonah and Ally's story, which might've cleared up some of those unanswered questions. In the end, the story was interesting enough, it just didn't have that wow factor for me.
