The Psychic's Heartwish
(HEARTWISHES, Book 6: Medium Spice Contemporary Romance)
More than anything, Kady Malone wants to heal the rift in her family. She starts the herculean task by inviting her snobby, elitist cousin Lorraine and her brainy new fiancé to dinner. When Lorraine accepts the invitation but includes a lengthy email full of stipulations and conditions, Kady is insulted. How dare Lorraine suggest Kady’s incapable of hosting a simple dinner party?
Detesting romance novels, Lorraine warns bookshop owner Kady not to discuss those cheap, tawdry bodice rippers over dinner. Kady’s further instructed not to embarrass Lorraine by bringing up anything mystical, like crystal balls or, God forbid, parading her rescue dog, Izzy, around. For heaven’s sake, what’s wrong with Kady being proud of her adorable tarot-card-reading psychic dog?
Dressed in a purposely bizarre co-mingling of garish fortuneteller and debutante socialite garb, Kady wonders if it’s childish to antagonize Lorraine by hosting the most bodice ripping, psychic-themed dinner party ever? Perhaps. Deserved? Definitely.
Although Kady’s mischievous plan has all the ingredients for success, she’s thrown for a loop when she meets science professor Rylan Kilpatrick, who isn’t the stuffy fuddy-duddy fiancé she expected. Their mutual attraction is electrifying and forbidden, throwing Kady’s world into utter chaos when she gazes into her crystal ball.
Heartwishes, Book 6: Quirky bohemian warmhearted heroine, brainy magnetic knockout hero, mean girl drama queen, beloved ostracized disowned cousin, abundant humor, suspense, fantasy, wondrous wish, and a pair of precious reincarnated dogs. This guaranteed HEA romcom can be read as a standalone but is better appreciated when read in order.

Readers and Reviewers Say:
"Daisy Dexter Dobbs writes romantic comedy that is so over the top that I can't help but laugh out loud while reading. Her wit and ability to create clever situations is truly a gift. She always leaves me believing anything is possible. This book is another stellar example of Ms. Dobbs' vivid imagination. It has it all—witty dialogue, a hot as sin hero, great chemistry, mad cap hilarity. A must have for every romance fan. Ms. Dobbs makes falling in love fun. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next."—Romance Junkies
"I've done a few readings for a friend of the author, who recommended Ms. Dobbs' books. This book in particular, naturally. I received an ARC from the author because she wanted my feedback on the psychic-related portions of the story. I was curious to see how the author approached the subject of psychics, tarot cards, crystal balls, intuition, etc. Having a supposedly psychic dog as one of the book's characters made this sound ridiculously over the top. Well color this psychic surprised! The story of Kady Malone and Rylan Kilpatrick was warm, funny, exciting, sweet, and definitely unconventional. Most of all, it was believable. The bohemian heroine was relatable and likeable. The psychic and paranormal/magical portions of the story (yes, even the dog) really held my interest and were well executed. I highly recommend The Psychic's Heartwish. It's a captivating story that's impossible not to enjoy."--M.J. Althroeder, psychic for 25 years "What an incredible read, which included some tense scenes I didn't expect! An expert crafter of happily-ever-after endings, Ms. Dobbs has a knack for adding wit, humor, and raw emotion to a tale that is totally natural and utterly enchanting. This book can be read on its own, but I recommend starting with book 1 (The Viking's Heartwish) first to enhance your reading experience. If you enjoy romance novels that include laugh out loud scenes combined with some quirky paranormal elements and even some unexpected action, then this is the book for you! Best, most unusual romance I've read in a long while!"—Chris T., Schaumburg, IL "In The Psychic's Heartwish, this longer, well-developed novel by Daisy Dexter Dobbs takes readers on a delicious expedition through Kady Malone's heartening story. As with all of the author's books, humor is generously sprinkled throughout this book. But there's an unanticipated chilling turn as well that's expertly handled. Rylan is an outstanding romance hero who finds himself between a rock and a hard place. He's not only invitingly appealing, he's a man who truly knows how to treat a real woman. And Kady is a women we all want for a friend, someone who richly deserves a satisfying happy ending—and gets it in this book!"—R. Candler, Denver CO "Another hysterically funny read by Daisy Dexter Dobbs! I was shaking my head and the words 'oh my gosh' were repeated constantly as I read this story. It is hilarious and sweet and I enjoyed it. I certainly see myself reading more than once."—Joyfully Reviewed |
