The Magic Jack-O'Lantern
Sandra Heath
Heiress Polly Peach has brought Halloween to Bath a few
days early--in the form of a disgruntled brownie. The
invisible creature, once happy overlooking the family's
country estate, has hitched a ride with Polly to search for
his missing sweetheart. His inexplicable acts of mischief
have society in an uproar--and everyone is pointing the
finger at Polly, especially the pompous Sir Dominic Fortune.
Tossed aside by a scheming mistress, Dominic haS come to
Bath to heal his wounds, not to incur more. But every time
he sees angelic Polly draw near, accidents happen. When an
army parade dissolves into chaos, Dominic takes matters--
and Polly--into his own hands. Her unpredictable behavior
has his head--and heart--spinning enough to trust her when
she recruits him to help the brownie in his search. Though
Dominic has never believed in magic before, as Halloween
quickly approaches, he begins to belive that anything caN
happen--even love....
