5.0

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
HEA: yes
spice: a couple open-door spicy scenes
TWs: death of a loved one (recounted), violence, murder, black sheep daughter
standalone: book 1 in the Seven Suitors for Seven Witches series
final thoughts: I had a great time reading this book! There were some iffy things happening in this book between the MCs that made it feel like a mildly dark romance but I didnโ€™t mind them.
I liked the banter, the side characters (at least some of them!), and the forced proximity- they added so much to the story and kept me engaged. I loved this take on a fated mates but not really fated mates situation. This was fun, fast paced, angsty, steamy, and opens up to meeting the rest of the sisters and finding out more about them and their new suitors.
