Charlotte Pettifer, a witch of the Wicken League (rivals of the Wisteria Society), finds herself at odds with the pirate Alex O’Riley. Pirates and witches notoriously do not get along – and Charlotte and Alex are both trying to steal the same powerful artifact. Sparks fly every time they meet (sometimes in the form of literal explosions) and in spite of Charlotte’s disdain for pirates and Alex’s disdain for witches, as well as his disdain for the idea of love – they find they are drawn to each other.
This book is the sequel to The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels. Like many romance series, you don’t necessarily need to read the first one to appreciate the later installments, but knowing the context, and the recurring characters, does add to the reading experience. It is just as silly and absurd as the previous book in the series – and just as much fun to read. In fact, I think I might like it better than the previous installment. It’s just a little more polished than the first.
I received an advance copy of this ebook from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I always enjoyed reading about witches and pirates in ridiculous flying houses. Even if I would not declare these books as literary masterpieces or superbly written, I do not have anything against a fun, lighthearted read, that doesn't take itself too seriously. Sometimes it felt a little unpurposeful, not having the biggest drive to progress plot-wise, and a bit repetitive to the first book in the series.

I really liked this one, which is great since I just found it on the library shelf rather than planning ahead. I will say that it felt a bit more like an adventure novel with romance rather than a romance novel with adventure, but that didn't bother me too much. At times the plot beats felt a little stumble-y, like the author was kind of winging it.
All that being said, it was really, truly an enjoyable book with a cute romance and some fun worldbuilding.
