Owen O’Neill had his plate full. He had spent the past few centuries researching ways of getting hold of the one item what would make him the most powerful Mage on Earth; an activity which consumed every fibre in his being. Now he had to complete a quest which had been pending for millennia and if that wasn’t enough, he had overdone his latest body rejuvenation process and instead of becoming a stable 50 year old, he was somewhere between puberty and young adulthood. Zits were a now a huge issue, as were women and gadgets.
Then in walks a pregnant Jennifer Stone. Jennifer was nothing to write home about. She was an ordinary mortal who thought Mages only existed in her books and computer games. She was also a bit on the skinny side. If only Owen had known at the time that Jennifer was the primary target of the Shadow Ones he would not only have walked away from the whole deal, but sold his house and moved continents with no forwarding address. Permanently. But as if things weren't bad enough, Jennifer goes and steals his heart.
Jennifer Stone had absolutely no idea that a centuries old Witch lived down her own road. Nor did she know that the first boy that she allowed herself to be seduced by was from another dimension. And then, she finds out she is very pregnant. Now you have to understand that for an Irish girl who lives in a very small town, this is no easy matter. For Jennifer Stone, it was all a bit too much. So when a strange group of evil Mages start making her life a misery she takes things into her own hands, which, unbeknown to her, are very powerful indeed.
