This was supposed to be an ARC review, but life got in the way! I received ebook and audiobook ARCS and read the story partially through those. Then, I bought the paperback and the audiobook and finished it that way. Thank you to Sarah and Shannon for the ARCS and for your patience!

Breeze Spells and Bridegrooms was a delight! I love Wyn, Roger, and their beautiful love story! 

Roger and Wyn are well-defined and complex characters. They both grew so much throughout the story. I loved rooting for them and their blossoming romance. 

The magic system was fascinating. A number of side characters stood out. I loved the pacing and felt it suited the characters and their circumstances. Any complaints I could have about this book are minor and I don’t feel are worth mentioning.

People with RSD may struggle with a certain scene in Vauxhall Gardens. It’s extremely well written, realistic, and viscerally emotional. I hope we see more of that side character in the rest of the series!

All in all, I enjoyed this book very much and am excited for the sequel!
