'Not Your Ex's Hexes' is April Asher's second book in her Supernatural Singles series. In this instalment we have second daughter Rose, who until recently was being trained to become the next Prima, but now suddenly that her sister has come into her powers Rose's life is no longer set out before her with no say from her. Wanting to find herself she bounces around from career to job, ride driver, bar tender, hunter, liberator of abused horses. It's that last one that gets her in a bit of trouble when it turns out the horses had already been rescued and were healing at a sanctuary. After getting caught she is sentenced to community service hours at the animal sanctuary which puts her working directly under half-demon veterinarian Damian. Starting a friends with benefits arrangement with him at the same time as getting more involved in his life at the sanctuary begins to cause more than just sparks to fly between the two.

This is my first Apple Asher book and it won't be the last. It was the right amount of snark, stupid funny, light hearted, rom com that I enjoy. Best of all no third act mis communication break up. Not that there break up reason was a good one, are they ever in these books, but this one didnt peeve me as much. I listened to this on audiobook and I don't know if its the only one I read where its a single female narrator with the book swapping view points but I gotta say Zura Johnson did a great job and after hearing her I kinda wish more books used a single narrator even when theres a female and male POVs.
In some books like these the bits with the friends/siblings/the other couples that couple up in the series can be a bit much but I felt like we got to see them the regular amount one would in a regular life, not every scene was the core couples when there was groups, there were a bunch of cutesy mentions of the couple that got together in book one and there was definite lining up of the couple for the next book but it wasn't too much and overbearing.
Anyways I enjoyed this cute light read and will definitely be checking out more to mix in with the rest I read.
