Desperate to pay the rent, Broadway star wannabe Poppy McGuillicuddy is the middle of DJ-ing a Halloween party when a mishap with a cat named Calamity changes her life forever. Suddenly, she’s a familiar – as in, a witch’s familiar. Or in her case, a warlock’s. Even more specifically, a gorgeous warlock…who wants nothing to do with her. Thank God for the ladies from OOPs, who’ve promised their help as Poppy navigates her accidental paranormal powers.
Despite his last familiar leaving him bitter and disillusioned, warlock Rick Delassantos still isn’t heartless. He’s agreed to give Poppy a few days before contacting Familiar Central and demanding she be reassigned elsewhere. But barely a day is all it takes for Poppy to become the target of some seriously bad magic, forcing Rick to keep her close to ensure her safety. Not exactly a hardship, when his new familiar is as sexy as she is sassy.
With help from Marty, Nina, Wanda, and assorted other OOPs friends, Rick and Poppy learn some important lessons – fate works in mysterious ways, things aren’t always as they seem, and sometimes the worst evil can be found close to home.
Vampires witches zombies werewolf I love these books. Read them too fast waiting for the next and it takes a little bit longer to write and I can read. Can’t wait to see what she does next. Never would’ve thought of having a person as a for Familiar for a witch.. Poppy was just doing her job when calamity accidentally turned her into a familiar. For which Rick is one hell of a cute guy. The whole gang is here so it’s a very good book as always. Like I said can’t wait for the next accidental book. Nina is her usual bad ass…
Another excellent adventure! Once again this is a laugh out loud adventure. The new characters are witty and interesting. The storyline is perfect with a few surprises. The OOPS ladies are as fun as ever. The budding romance doesn’t start until late in the book, but it’s good. It was my only complaint. It felt little hesitant and unfinished. But, I enjoyed the book and would recommend it without hesitation.
don’t eat or drink anything you don’t want to gigglesnort out of your nose. A delightfully funny addition to the series. The Accidental Familiar is chock full of quirky characters both old and new to us. Poppy is a terrific addition to the cast. If this book doesn’t have you singing the ghostbusters theme by the end there is something off. As usual the standard recommendations apply; don’t eat or drink anything you don’t want to gigglesnort out of your nose. Don’t read in church. Kick back and enjoy the ride. I did.
