Loved the characters and plot! I’m a sucker for supernatural books. I will definitely read the rest of the series. The only reason I’m rating this 4 stars is because this book should have been 100 pages shorter and the end was only about 30 pages/2 chapters. This book was so long and slow just to have the end feel rushed. I was bummed tbh.
I felt like the end was more of a shock factor that didn’t make much sense to the overall plot. Did it wrap the book up with a nice little bow? Yes. Did I feel any sort of “wow that was such a great twist” when reading it? Not really :(
Still enjoyed it though and thought it was very cutesy!

This book is so stupid cute!! Mateo and Evie are such sweethearts and I love when two artists get together. I think the plot was fun and the side characters were adorable. I just think the story development left a tad to be desired. The climax ended pretty fast and a few things felt unresolved. I also think the whole Sandra thing came out of the blue but whatevs. Still cute and worth the read.

I was not expecting to like this one as much as I did. I'm not a big fan of vampire or werewolf romance so this was a nice surprise. 

I loved the magic system and supernaturally world of this one. It was easy to grasp but still felt nice and magical with a little spookiness (which is an added bonus of a NoLa locale). The sisters each having a certain type of magic but not necessarily being the only ones with it was nice. They're special without being unicorns.

FL was good - a little to "oh-so-quirky" at times for my taste but not overtly so. ML was good, too - the Aplha inner monologue was confusing at first (I thought it was another person for a few pages) and maybe a bit too misogynistic at times, but he's supposed to be I guess. The side characters were great and I'm glad each sister gets a standalone (which yes I do plan to read). 

I think my main qualm with this one is the climax.
it's a bit too on the nose for me. First of all, of course it's her, it's the one person from his past you meet that isn't his cousin. But also the true mate cancels our other magic trope is one I just do not like so that's on me but...I wish Evie had been able to fight a bit more.


Great Halloween read for romance lovers imo - first one I've enjoyed this much that I've read.

This was a really fun read! This was a slower burn then I was expecting, but the payoff at the end was totally worth it. And while I did really enjoy reading this one, it felt like I had to slog through a lot of the middle section.

I did really enjoy the relationship between Evie and Mateo. They were just so much fun and I also loved that Evie was a comic and fandom nerd. Which was such a nice change of pace! All in all, I liked this one a lot. But I think my enjoyment of it was over shadowed by all the shitty things happening in the world right now. So. With that said, I’m giving this one a four out of five stars.
