Go Hex Yourself by Jessica Clare

Reggie assumed the ad she answered for a Spellwork assistant had something to do with the Spellwork card game.  She didn’t expect it to be acting as an assistant to a slightly dotty old woman who thinks she’s a witch.  But it pays amazingly well, so Reggie is willing to put up with Dru, even if her obnoxiously cute nephew doesn’t approve of Reggie.  Ben Magnus is a five hundred year old warlock who would really like his aunt not to hire a new familiar […]
