Thanks to Forever for an eARC; all opinions are my own. 

I really wanted to like this book but I just... didn't.  I felt like Max wanted Delia to fail and then when she didn't, he was all "I will save you." he lied to her about who he was, led her on and then expected her to trust him (which he did) and it just didn't do it for me. He just seemed like not a great guy.

Delia Merriweather and her family have always been rumored to be witches, but that is just hogwash. She has left behind childhood fantasies in favor of a more grounded reality. Delia has dabbled in various careers and has decided to start an interior design business. Then she runs into Max, the next-door neighbor who "owns" an antique store. The tension between them is either because Max is helping Delia or because Max is inadvertently complicating her life. Their relationship is a blend of misunderstanding, humor, and undeniable chemistry. A seemingly harmless accident restores the long-dormant powers of the Merriweather women; Delia's true identity, which she had long since dismissed as mere folklore, is turned on its head.

The book is a charming blend of magical realism and romantic comedy. The story balances the whimsical aspects of magic with Delia's personal growth, making her an endearing character whose struggles and triumphs are easy to root for. You can't help but love her and all her chaotic and genuine emotions. Max's rigid demeanor quickly bends to Delia's bubbly and sweet southern personality. Who doesn't love it when opposites attract?

It's about discovering who you are, embracing your quirks, and finding love in unexpected places. Whether you're a fan of witchy romantic comedies or just looking for a feel-good read, this book will cast its spell on you.

I received an ARC audiobook for my honest review. Thank you, NetGalley and Hachette Audio, Forever.

Such a cozy, lighthearted read perfect for the spooky season! Willow Root, Texas is absolutely perfect and the vibes of this small town are immaculate. Max is an incredible, hottie of a next door neighbor and the chemistry between him & Delia is top-notch. I loved the chaos, the mess, every single thing and really think that everyone should read this one for a cute fall read!
