Amie rolled over and stretched. Mmm…something was baking. She detected the heavenly aroma of cinnamon and bananas, along with fresh brewed coffee. Her house never smelled like this. She certainly didn't cook.

She cracked her eyes open. She couldn't believe she'd actually fallen asleep. Sunlight streamed in from her window. Delivery trucks rumbled down the alley. Then she heard Dante singing, low and deep.

Yawning, she extricated a book out from under her cheek and rubbed at her face.

She'd give it to him. The man had an amazing voice. She sat up slowly as the cobwebs cleared from her head.

For a moment, she thought she recognized the song. "I Can't Help Falling in Love with You," only different.

Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment.

A haunting melody.

Chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie.

He sounded like a Spanish Elvis. And from the sound of lapping water, he was in her tub.

She pushed her way through the books, to where her bedside clock lay facedown. She lifted it enough to look at the big, red numbers. It was only nine in the morning. She let go of the clock and it tumbled down, face-first again. According to her books, zombies had to sleep at least twelve hours a night. Just who did he think he was?

J'ai tout quitté pour l'ingrate Celeste.

Elle me quitte et prend un autre aimant.

Water splashed in her tub as he hit a low note. She lurched out of bed and made her way to the kitchen.

Coffee gurgled on the stove. He'd used her grandma's ancient pot instead of the plug-in KitchenAid on her counter. To each his own. She opened the oven and peeked at the bubbling dough inside. He could cook too. It figured.

Wouldn't it be nice if her life was really like this? Waking up to a hot breakfast and a hot man.

It was such a tease.

Amie pulled a Doctor Who mug from above the sink and poured herself a hot, steaming cup of coffee. She closed her eyes at the rich flavor with just a hint of vanilla.

She scanned her countertops for the package he'd used. She hadn't bought any vanilla coffee.

Her fingers tightened on her cup when she saw one of her spell books open on the kitchen table. He'd been doing some research of his own.

It was the pink love magic book, one of her mother's. Amie groaned. She hadn't had time to go through all of her mom's books yet. This one was well used. It figured her mom would resort to voodoo.

And now Amie had too.

Terrific. Just like Mom.

She sighed. Well, at least she wasn't taking any strange men to bed. She dragged a hand across her face. She was just letting them in her tub.

Water splashed as he got out. She heard the towel bar clank. As if she needed him in her kitchen too. She topped off her coffee.

Fingers shaking, Amie rubbed at her temples and told herself she had about two minutes to get it together.

She was wrong.

The bathroom door swung open.
