“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about. However, as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.
Today’s selection and book I’m excitedly awaiting is:
The Ex Hex
by Erin Sterling
Adult – Fantasy – Romance
October 5th 2021 by William Morrow
Goodreads
New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins, writing as Erin Sterling, casts a spell with a spine-tingling romance full of wishes, witches, and hexes gone wrong.
Nine years ago, Vivienne Jones nursed her broken heart like any young witch would: vodka, weepy music, bubble baths…and a curse on the horrible boyfriend. Sure, Vivi knows she shouldn’t use her magic this way, but with only an “orchard hayride” scented candle on hand, she isn’t worried it will cause him anything more than a bad hair day or two.
That is until Rhys Penhallow, descendent of the town’s ancestors, breaker of hearts, and annoyingly just as gorgeous as he always was, returns to Graves Glen, Georgia. What should be a quick trip to recharge the town’s ley lines and make an appearance at the annual fall festival turns disastrously wrong. With one calamity after another striking Rhys, Vivi realizes her silly little Ex Hex may not have been so harmless after all.
Suddenly, Graves Glen is under attack from murderous wind-up toys, a pissed off ghost, and a talking cat with some interesting things to say. Vivi and Rhys have to ignore their off the charts chemistry to work together to save the town and find a way to break the break-up curse before it’s too late
The author described this as Hocus Pocus, but steamy – and that kind of intrigues me? (please don’t judge me)
All I know is that this sounds like a super fun, witchy romance and I can’t wait to read it.
Tell Me:
Will you be reading this book?
I had no idea Rachel Hawkins wrote under another pen name!
Me neither! I think this is her first book under another pen name?
The witchy elements sound really fun, perfect for fall!
Yes, exactly! Already getting in the mood for fall haha 🙂
This really sounds like the perfect Halloween read! 😍
It really does! Can’t wait for Halloween 😀
