Book Blurb:
Earth, Wind & Fire aren't just a band anymore . . .
Used to be my greatest achievement was holding a job more than three days. Now suddenly I can shoot fireballs, chill your drink, or blow-dry your hair at fifty paces with a blink of my eye!
It all started when this crazy scientist dropped something in my Grande Mocha Latte. Of course I got wicked sick. Next morning I'm waking up with this total hottie bending over me. He tells me 1)his name's Rome Masters, 2)he's a government agent and 3)I can control the four elements with a thought.
He seems even less pleased by my (apparently irreversible) transformation than I am . . . Because now he'll have to kill me.
This was a fun, quick read.
Belle Jamison is your average working class girl - but she feels stuck in a run down job - going no where fast. She just wants a change, something different. Didn't someone say, be careful what you wish for, you just might get it?
Belle got it alright - and then some.
I really wish this had been made into a series rather than a stand alone novel. I love these characters and would be willing to follow there story further. :)
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.

Thanks for the heads up on this one. I love your review... and the book sounds great. I am a huge Gena fan... of My Lords of course... So, I never read this one... I will be going to put this on my TBB list!! Thanks!
Hope you are having a wonderful day!
Hi Michelle!
Great review, I'll pick this one up too. OMG, there are some many I haven't read yet...and I read a lot!
Thanks for the recommendation, it sounds sooo good!
Dottie :)
Cecile,
I also love the Lords of the Underworld series - I can't wait for the new one. :) I had no idea about this book - I was surprised at the number of stand alone novels Ms. Showalter has written. :)
I am having a wonderful day and hope you are as well. :)
Dottie,
My 'tbr' shelf is over flowing. I can't keep up with the new releases. LOL For every book I read it seems like 5 new ones come out. :) I'm not complaining though - not at all. As long as they are on the shelf I'll get to them one day.

Oh... I can NOT wait either!!! I see the books on the side of her blog... but I never reallly (really) looked at them... due to the fact that I just absolutely love my Lords!!! But I will looking into those! Thanks!
Great Review Michelle!
I'm currently all things Gena at the moment with the Lords. *wink* I hear there's a sequel of this one coming out soon.
Thanks for the recommendation!
:D VFG
I loved this book too. It's really funny. There was this scene where Belle had her job interview and I wasn't able to stop giggling.
But I thought there should come a Book 2 in 2010 "Twice as Hot"( look here: http://www.genashowalter.com/upcoming.htm).
Great review.
