Merely Magic Magical Malcolms Book #1

NYT bestselling author "Patricia Rice employs wicked wit and sizzling sensuality to turn the battle of the sexes into a magical romp." — Mary Jo Putney, New York Times bestselling author Can a cynical scientist and an illogical enchantress find happiness together? Lady Ninian Malcolm Siddons, healer and herbalist, has dedicated her life to the village of Wystan, her Northumberland home. But duty has cost her dearly—her title isolates her, her gifts mark her as other, and love seems forever out of reach. But legend warns the village cannot thrive without a magical Malcolm... Drogo Ives, Earl of Ives and Wystan, values logic, honor, and scientific certainty. He scorns the illogic of romance—and women as irrational and contradictory as rattlepated Lady Ninian. Let his younger brother inherit the title and its messy obligations. But one fateful night changes everything. Now, bound by honor to marry the woman carrying his child, Drogo faces a haunting family curse: Malcolm–Ives’ unions always end in tragedy. Can they defy history—and their own prejudices—to forge a future where love bridges the gap between magic and reason to save their families and homes?
