This was such a great final bow for the Never After series! It was a great deal lengthier than its predecessors, and a MUCH slower burn, but I flew through it just as well.

Hexed is a loose reimagination of The Little Mermaid, and though the title might lead you to believe there were supernatural elements, the story was based in the “real world”, with mafia involvement of course. Venesa and Enzo had great chemistry and had a very organic relationship. I did see a lot of the plot points coming, as it was very true to McIntire’s writing style. This is not to say this made for a disappointing read, I just knew what kind of betrayals and twists to expect.
