I love witchy books! This is the follow up to The Ex Hex. After the romance continues with a honeymoon. Her cousin and his brother are starting a business rivalry with their spell shops, though they are designed for humans not to actually give them magic. I loved their friendly then full on business competition then truce. They are from the two powerful families so it’s always very passionate.
These two have the animosity down but also are turning into enemies to lovers feel. Love their chemistry and the fact they keep trying to deny it and blame it on magic 🤣
The mystery in town was interesting and there a few factors causing the issues with the magic. I didn’t see it coming or know who it was.
I need the “werewolf” brothers romance!

Synopsis:
Welcome to Spooky Season!! The follow-up to Erin Sterling’s New York Times bestselling hit The Ex Hex features fan favorite Gwyn and the spine-tinglingly handsome Wells Penhallow as they battle a new band of witches and their own magical chemistry.
Gwyn Jones is perfectly happy with her life in Graves Glen. She, her mom, and her cousin have formed a new and powerful coven; she’s running a successful witchcraft shop, Something Wicked; and she’s started mentoring some of the younger witches in town. As Halloween approaches, there’s only one problem—Llewellyn “Wells” Penhallow.
Wells has come to Graves Glen to re-establish his family’s connection to the town they founded as well as to make a new life for himself after years of being the dutiful son in Wales. When he opens up a shop of his own, Penhallow’s, just across the street from Something Wicked, he quickly learns he’s gotten more than he bargained for in going up against Gwyn.
When their professional competition leads to a very personal—and very hot—kiss, both Wells and Gwyn are determined to stay away from each other, convinced the kiss was just a magical fluke. But when a mysterious new coven of witches come to town and Gwyn’s powers begin fading, she and Wells must work together to figure out just what these new witches want and how to restore Gwyn’s magic before it’s too late.
