Under Daddy’s Spell by Maddie Taylor

Daddy’s magic is impossible to resist. Could it be she’s been under his spell all along?

Jessalyn Delacroix calls the Big Easy home, yet her life is anything but. Abandoned by her father in the wake of her mother’s death, dutiful Jessa sacrificed her twenties to keep the family bookstore running. With the weight of the world on her young shoulders, the last thing she needed was a gym moving in next door. Now the parking lot is overflowing, and the constant noise is terrifying her youngest patrons. But when she tries to confront Jordan Cooper, her new neighbor, with his handsome face, sculpted body, and nice guy demeanor, she gets tongue-tied and can’t focus on all she needs to say.
As the summer heat blisters New Orleans, an A/C dispute between the bookstore and the gym lands Jessa over his knee. Fuming at his familiarity and sheer nerve, she turns to an 18th-century spell book to exact a bit of revenge. But her attempt at conjuring a little peace and quiet doesn’t go as planned. She turns up both the heat and the sizzle of Jordan’s attention.
Soon, Jessa is falling for the commanding Daddy she never knew she needed, but it will take a visit to Madame Lucinda, NOLA’s renowned purveyor of the occult, to undo the magic and determine if his love is real. If the spell can’t be broken, how will she live without knowing, especially since she’s been under daddy’s spell all along?
