I love Laura Thalassa’s writing. And somehow, she’s made me fall in love with a man named Memnom - that’s how good she is.

📕 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Bespelled by Laura Thalassa.

📙 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀: Bewitched trilogy. Book 2.

📗 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀: E-book on Kindle. 🆓️ on KU 

📘 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗿𝗲: Fantasy romance

📔 𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀: Morally gray FMC, fated mates, romantic suspense, witches, female friendship.

📖 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: In the second book of the Bewitched series, Memnom continues to seek vengeance against Selene… but when he finds out he’s been wrong the whole time, he works to help Selene solve her a slew of recent murders and earn her trust back.

🌟 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: Laura Thalassa’s ability to make me question my sanity and fall in love with a morally gray - really almost black - male main character is seriously impressive.

I loved the first book in this series, and the second book was an incredible ride. Selene grows into herself and her power. Memnom spends a ton of time groveling. There’s a ton of action, some absolutely delicious spice… just the complete package.

I’m sad thinking about the wait before the third and final book… I’m not looking forward to the ending, but I am looking forward to seeing how she wraps all of this up.

🪄 𝗙𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗲: Easy. This is mostly witch and shifter based, so it’s easy to follow and the world is modern.

𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  

𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹: 3.5/5 🌶🌶🌶
