21. Wicked Business by Janet Evanovich


BOOK REVIEW: Wicked Business by Janet Evanovich

As a fan of fantasy-packed novels, I couldn’t resist my rather roving hands from grabbing this book from a pile of books during one of the Big Bad Wolf sales. The cover in all its twinkling-star glory just screamed at me to pick it up. Goshhhh, do I have to say, this book delivered exactly the magical genre that I deserved.

After the mysterious death of Harvard University English professor and hopeless romantic, Gilbert Reedy, Lizzy Tucker’s once normal life as a pastry chef in Salem, Massachusetts is turned upside down.

Following in Reedy’s footsteps, Lizzy and her very attractive – but very unobtainable – partner, Diesel, take up his 20-year quest to find the Luxuria Stone, an ancient relic believed by some to be infused with the power of lust.

But soon Lizzy and Diesel discover they are not alone in their search for the stone. Diesel’s cousin, Gerwulf Grimoir, also wants to wield its power to fulfil his own wicked plans, and will stop at nothing until he finds it.


Treasures will be sought and the power of lust is undeniable in this ancient quest that is full of twisted riddles and high-stakes hide-and-seek. An adult version of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, readers will be thrown into a world of unlikely attraction, lust, magic and a sprinkling of love to bind it all. Abracadabra!
