What happens?
Craig and Merrie meet at the bakery and Craig is struck with how much Merrie looks like the witch who cursed him for breaking her heart some 80 years ago.
Merrie has no memory of him but feels this intense attraction to him, unable to fight the lust between them but the history is also pretty intense.
Final thoughts
This was a sweet read. Nothing amazing but I did enjoy the reincarnation part, a little bit too much but an interesting explanation.
Would I read again?: Maybe
Would I read this author again?: Yes

Summary Paragraph:
Warning: explicit sex scenes
Craig was cursed by a witch who happens to look a lot like Merrie? Why you ask? Well the witch from his past cursed him because she was not his true mate. Now he can’t be happy in a relationship until he meets his true mate.
Merrie a witch who never feels like she is good enough. She opens a magic store and it does well but she is constantly trying to prove she is good enough either to her family her friends or herself.
Is Merrie really the witch who cursed him in a past life? Can they find love or is the cure bound to live on?

I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.

Quotes:
Merrie frustrated me to distraction, yet beguiled me, so that I wanted to bring her the stars and the moon, just to see her smile and hear her laugh.
