Don’t Expect Magic (Magic, #1) by Kathy McCullough

Genre: YA Supernatural Romance

Publisher: Ember (Random House)

Release Date: 2011




Goodreads Synopsis:



Delaney Collins doesn't believe in fairy tales. And why should she? Her mom is dead, her best friend is across the country, and she's stuck in California with "Dr. Hank," her famous life-coach father—a man she barely knows. Happily ever after? Yeah, right. Then Dr. Hank tells her an outrageous secret: he's a fairy godmother—an f.g.—and he can prove it. And by the way? The f.g. gene is hereditary. Meaning there's a good chance that New Jersey tough girl Delaney is someone's fairy godmother.

Even though she's not the pink and sparkly type, Delaney soon finds herself with a client: Flynn Becker, a boy at her new school who's hopelessly in love with a girl who doesn't know he exists. Flynn's wish is Delaney's command. With her customized black boots and chopstick wand, Delaney does everything in her power to make Flynn's wish come true. But what happens when a fairy godmother needs a wish of her own?



Excerpt:

“What’s the point of having superpowers if it’s not about awing everybody? Although now that I think about it, pretty much every famous superhero is in the closet.” (Paperback, pg. 111)
