Cute and comforting, witchy romance, must unite to break the curse

Decent writing, if a little cheesy. Leans a little YA besides the vivid-yet-unexplicit steamy scenes. Would definitely pick up the second book as a casual read.

Tldr: lots of buildup, not much payoff, but the writing and characters are neat.

I enjoyed the premise for this book, it was fun. However, I did spend a lot of it distracted or bored, it didn’t really hold my attention all the time.

This witchy book is fabulous! I devoured it in a couple of days during spooky season and I loved every bit of it. If you’re looking for something light, but spooky (no scares involved), this is the book for you! The Ex Hex is about a witch named Vivienne Jones who *accidentally* put a curse on her ex-boyfriend, Rhys Penhallow, for funsies and he doesn’t even know it.

Fast forward nine years and Rhys has plans to return to Vivienne’s witchy town to recharge the town’s ley lines. But when Rhys arrives, Vivienne learns that her *for funsies* hex that she put on Rhys has some pretty strange consequences...I found The Ex Hex to be absolutely hilarious and a perfect read for spooky season, although this book is honestly perfect for any season.

Quick and fun read with lovable characters. The two leads are charming with a ton of chemistry to keep you rooting for them the whole way through. It’s a tad rushed at the end, but otherwise paced well. And it has a strong Halloween theme, that makes it perfect for an October read.
