Sommario/riassunto

Private investigator Dean White doesn't believe in the supernatural, and he spends his time hunting down and exposing those who claim to have such powers. Maggie Daniels is next on his list. But Maggie turns



out to be a very real witch ... and she's not the only one! When a not-so-friendly witch sets her wicked plan in motion, Dean will have to suspend his disbelief if he and Maggie are going to survive. Finders Keepers is the delightfully charming new romance from author Vicky Burkholder.Plagued by dreams about a cinnamon-haired beauty, Dean White is certain his spacy grandmother has something to do with it. As a P.I., Dean specializes in exposing frauds, especially those who claim supernatural powers. When his grandmother gives him Maggie Daniels' card claiming she can find lost things, he knows he has to prove to his grandmother that this woman is nothing more than a charlatan. What he doesn't expect is Maggie is the woman in his dreams--and she's a real witch.Maggie Daniels runs an occult shop in a small town. She has all the outer trappings of being a witch, but she keeps the reality off the radar. After all, advertising that little fact doesn't exactly make friends.When the man she's been seeing in her visions shows up on her doorstep, she isn't quite sure what the fates have in store for her.Dean, head of White Knight Investigations, has something he needs found. In talking with him, Maggie realizes Dean is so immersed in reality he's forgotten he has abilities of his own. That fact hasn't escaped the notice of another witch--one who's got intentions of her own. It's up to Maggie to stop the other one's dark plans and convince Dean that there's more to life than just five senses.Content Notes: Sweet, Paranormal, Magic, Witches, Contemporary
