[taken from fictiondb] Awakened by strange and primitive mating music emanating from the apartment below, Brooke Livingstone suddenly believes all the tall tales she's heard about her neighbor, Dr. Archimedes Xavier "Meade" O'Malley. Only one electric meeting with him confirms them: he's intelligent, eccentric, charming and gorgeous. And, he'd like to get to know Brooke a lot better. Meade's also an expert in mystical magic, which is fortunate for him. Because it's going to take something more than shared interests and breathtaking passion to capture Brooke's disillusioned heart. Painful secrets and shattered dreams still fresh, only Meade can show Brooke that time heals all wounds--that true love is simply magic.
