Alysha Gale belongs to a specially "charm"-full family. The men grow horns, and obey females until they "choose". She inherits her gran’s Calgary junk shop with fey mailboxes and the Monkey's Paw. Leprechaun Joe can help sell yo-yos. Tabloid reporter Graham bats very blue eyes and beds her. But when dragons fly overhead can even the Aunties save the day?

Fun, Weird Urban Fantasy

3 stars

This is a fun urban fantasy that has all the hallmarks of Huff's writing. The presence of incest and issues of consent should definitely be flagged, as those have an oversized role in the novel. It's not Huff's best, but it's executed well.
