The Laws of Magic
Description
Isla Hoffman has finally made it. No longer the recklessly trusting teenage witch who nearly killed her family, Isla owns a successful business and is a healer to the residents of Bender, Massachusetts?human and nonhuman alike. How'd she do it? By hiding her identity and never, ever falling in love. Easy, until the ultimate temptation starts patrolling her parking lot.
Lu Cadman should have an ex- before her name. Ex-military. Ex-New Yorker. Ex-wife. Starting over means a new job as security for a sleepy strip mall, but she isn't complaining, not when sunshiny Isla brings her tea almost every morning. She's not planning to get involved, but there's more to Isla than meets the eye and Lu can't stop her attraction.
Isla and the nonhumans in their community aren't as hidden as they think, and when a powerful force comes after them, they must work together to protect everyone. But Lu isn't being completely honest, and when Isla discovers the truth, will she be able to trust enough to let herself fall in love?

Person
M. Ullrich has always called New Jersey home and currently resides by the beach with her wife and two boisterous felines. After many years of regarding her writing as just a hobby, the gentle yet persistent words of encouragement from her wife pushed M. Ullrich to take a leap into the world of publishing. Much to her delight and amazement, that world embraced her back.
By day, M. Ullrich works full-time in the optical field and spends most of her days off working on her writing. When her pen isn't furiously trying to capture her imagination (a rare occasion), she enjoys being a complete entertainer. Whether she's telling an elaborate story, a joke, or getting up in front of a crowd to sing and dance her way through her latest karaoke selection, M. Ullrich will do just about anything to make others smile. She also happens to be fluent in three languages: English, sarcasm, and TV/Movie quotes.
