Official synopsis Publisher
“Why couldn’t she get me?”
“Magic doesn’t work on you. You’re impervious . . .”
Meaghan Keele faces menopause with no husband, no kids, and a job she hates. At her brother’s request, Meaghan moves from Arizona to Pennsylvania to help care for their dying father, taking over his job as lawyer for the tiny town of Eldrich.
What Meaghan doesn’t know is that law was merely her father’s day job. Gateways to magical worlds riddle the forests surrounding Eldrich. Unaffected by magic–impervious–her father spent decades mediating magical disputes and guarding the human world. Without his imposing presence, old enemies are stirring.
Impervious, like her father, Meaghan soon senses that everyone around her is keeping secrets. A shocking confrontation on her first day of work quickly clues her in to her new reality. Her office manager and her secretary are witches. Jamie, her handsome young assistant, isn’t exactly human. Eldrich City Hall is haunted. And Meaghan is expected to take over both of her father’s jobs.
Struggling to accept her destiny, Meaghan is soon drawn into a brutal struggle in another world and a budding romance with John Smith–exiled king, town drunk, and Jamie’s estranged father.
And she thought life in Eldrich would be dull . . .
IMPERVIOUS is the first book in the City of Eldrich series.
