Maplebrook, such a quiet and peaceful place to live, but underneath it all is a hidden world where the last remnants of strange history sleep in a world where magic used to be real and out in the open. Just when it seemed that it would be snuffed out for good – a spark, and passion fans the flames.Thea – I’m just an average small business owner, I run a cafe and I make killer muffins. There’s … killer muffins. There’s nothing really out of the ordinary about me, except that I come from a long line of witches. Shh it’s a secret. I help a lot of people with gentle nudges toward happiness, too bad it doesn’t seem to want to happen for me.
Gunner – Everyone’s good at something, and I’m good at riding my bike and tattooing. Good enough to own my own shop and keep my twin brother out of too much trouble at that. But there’s something about the owner of that cafe across the parking lot that I just can’t shake.
Mike – The last thing I want is a relationship, I’ve had enough trouble with women to last me the rest of my life. That doesn’t explain why I can’t take my eyes off of Thea, or how good it is to have someone that just listens. Maybe I should, what can it hurt?

Secrets
Theadora Holmes (Thea) owns and runs the diner that sits at the end of a strip mall. She is also a Heart Witch and does good for the locals. Like love potions and things to make them feel better. She also secretly likes the tattoo artist Gunner Blankenship and his fraternal twin brother Mike Blankenship. They have a shop at the other end of the mall. Thea has a familiar named Colin. He can change shape to anything he wants. Thea’s main employee is Callie. Thea made a love potion for a client and then put it in the refrigerator. When Callie ran out of creamer for the coffee she used that love potion in Thea, Gunner and Mike’s coffee. After that all desires between the three are gone. Lots of yummy sexual scenes. They end up all together and seem like a happy ending.
But is it really? What bad things are coming their way?

In this book we meet Theadora “Thea” Holmes, Michael “Mike” Blankenship, and Gunner Blankenship. Thea is a witch but nobody talks about that. She also has a thing for both Mike and Gunner but knows that nothing good can come with being with either of them. However there is something that she just can’t put her finger on that makes her think something is about to happen. Both men know there is something special about Thea but they worry if they go for her will they lose her in the end due to their past track record. Can they all find a HEA or will outside forces make sure that never happens?
This is an amazing story. It does have its ups and downs I really want to tell you about. However I don’t want to ruin the story for any other readers. I will say this book will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.
It is a quiet town but it hides secrets. She is from a long line of witches. She is about to attract the attention of two handsome men. Will secrets come out? Will she choose one of them? Can they have a fun time? See what will happen

Thea is a descendant of a witch family and she runs her own café. She tries to help people in little ways so she isn’t outed as a witch. Gunnar and Mike are twin brothers and both are interested in Thea but haven’t given in to do anything about it. One day when the brothers help her carry some things into the café she offers them some coffee. However what none of them knew was that her assistant accidently pour a love potion into them instead of creamer. When Thea learns of this her and guys the are already involved and she explains everything to them but they don’t care. As they work their way through their new relationship someone that was a threat to Thea was about to start wrecking havoc in their town. Can the guys keep her safe? Will they still by her when they learn what she is?
This is a great story once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between them is sizzling hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Crescent Moon Desire is absolutely fantastic! In a quiet and peaceful town of Maplebrook magic hides.
Thea is the owner of a small cafe, but not only that, she’s a witch who likes to help people gain happiness.
Gunner & Mike are twins who own the tattoo shop across the way from Thea’s cafe. There’s something about Thea that they can’t help but be attracted to.
One little mistake and it brings all 3 together. There’s heat, there’s steamy action, twists and trouble. I love it all! I couldn’t put the book down once I started reading. I can’t wait to see what book 2 will bring for the Passion & Magic series!

Thea had lusted after Gunner but felt he was out of her league. A mix up opens the eyes of Thea, Gunner, and Mike to their feelings and potential to be together. Their passion and understanding of each other is phenomenal. Can’t wait for the story to continue.

Book one in a new series called Passion & Magic this is Thea, and brothers Gunner and Michael Blankenship’s story. This story ends in a way that tells the reader there is going to be more to their story. A story that I enjoyed reading.

I absolutely loved this book and cannot wait to see if there will be more in the series. You will laugh and be on the edge of your seat with the action. There is a mystery as well as romance in this story.

There’s just enough intrigue to keep me wanting more from these three, but the steamy sexy scenes makes the questions worth it. Neither of the guys know what they are, and none of them know what’s coming. I cannot wait to see what’s next!

I enjoyed reading this book. The characters were well developed. Thea is a witch, she made a love portion for a client and accidentally ingested it along with two tattoo hot parlor owners. it was a good read but sometimes felt like some of the story was skipped and a lot of unfinished business.

This romance was a bit out of the ordinary. When a love witch creates a love potion and it’s mistakenly given to her and the 2 men interested in her (and she in them), things get interesting. I liked how the author made the attraction between the characters not just lust, but actually turning into love? Who knows?
The only thing I didn’t like about this book was the nefarious beady-eyed man who gives off a bad vibe. The epilogue of the book is also very (very) difficult to understand and hints at the possibility of more books featuring the love-struck trio. Despite these couple of things, I still give 5 stars to this book and the writer.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Thea is owner of the cresent moon cafe and a witch . When Mike and gunner of GB ‘s tattoo and piercing comes into her shop a love potion sets true feeling in motion. .Awesome story
Great story! Crescent Moon Desire has wonderful characters with a sprinkle of magic. Thea owns & runs the Crescent Moon Cafe. Oh, she’s also a Heart Witch. That’s a Witch that deals in matters of the heart, love potions & small ward spells of protection
Gunner & Mike own the tattoo shop across the plaza. They are fraternal twins. Gunner has his sights set on Thea but what he doesn’t realize is so does Mike.
A little mix up with a love potion and sparks fly in multiple directions.
I really enjoyed this story. I loved the magic aspect. The story developed well. The romance was swoon worthy & the intimacy was h-o-t. There is an HEA with room for adding more to the story. I have some questions but not enough to make me feel like it was a true. cliffhanger. Thankfully, because I’m not really a fan of cliffhangers unless I have immediate access to the next story. I’m have trouble with waiting patiently
