I absolutely adored The Ex Hex, so of course I has to get the little spin off to it.
It was fun, a little bit spooky and spicy - A perfect cozy witchy book for October which I love! I love how Gwyen is an actual good strong woman who is stubborn but doesn't let that get her into stupid situations like most strong woman characters do, which greatly annoys me.
Wells is such a fun male to read and I love how he became his own person and stood up to his Father, instead of using the useless excuse of "while his actions were bad, his means are good". I love children standing up against their parents, we need more of that.
The only thing I did like was the whole 'Baby Witches' gang, to me they were annoying - maybe it's because I find younger people annoying most of the time?
It's not as good as The Ex Hex, but it's still a fun read to cuddle up with.

You ever read about two characters who are desperate to deny they’ve got feelings for each other so they make up excuses for why they find reasons to kiss that aren’t “im hot for you?” yeah that’s Wells and Gwyn. They are FOOLS and I love them with all my heart.
The mystery is also really well done which tracks because Rachel Hawkins/Erin Sterling also writes thrillers. I loved the balance between the romance and mystery plots. I also loved the brothers, the college age witches who trail Gwyn everywhere she goes, the talking cat, and just the vibes of the town in general.
The smut also does not disappoint 😌
