The Marriage Hex by Sarah Blue
5.0
I was asked to beta read this and I could not be more thankful to Sarah for asking.
This is officially my favorite of Sarah’s books. This was everything a paranormal romance fan could want or need in a book. It has action, tension, comedy, hilarious animal familiars, cozy fall vibes, & multiple paranormal beings. This book had me cackling out loud one minute and then crying the next. Violet & Silas were so amazing & their banter was unmatched. Walter & Thorfin definitely stole the show though absolutely hilarious animals. Iris & Ember were truly the best friends/sisters Violet or anyone could have. I loved them and their fierce love for their friend, I can’t wait to see their stories & learn more about this town & all the beings in it.
The Marriage Hex gave me all the vibes from my favorite things like The Originals, Practical Magic, The Good Witch & all my fave late 90s & 2000s witchy classics. If you’re looking for something to get you out of a reading slump or to really get into the spooky/fall season this is the book for you.

Oh my god. Loved this so much. Monster with a Jeckle & Hyde vibe but make it 80s and spicy af. This was such a fun read could not recommend this more.

This was a WILD ride. If you mixed the show OUAT with Butcher & Blackbird then made it why choose you would get this book. It’s dark and spicy and very gorey. Definitely a lot of “what did she just do” moments. This may not have been fully for me personally but I was very entertained and I know lots of people that would love this.

Wow this was so captivating it had me IMMEDIATELY. This did not turn how I thought it turned out even better and really pulled at all the mysterious vampire nostalgia I use to read as a teen but make it for adults. I can not wait to read the rest of this series!

This was such a wild ride. It gave me all the vibes from The Covenant. Truly could not put this down but glad I read it slowly so I could understand everything happening and some of the time jumps. That ending!?! I need to immediately start the second one I could not believe that plot twist / cliffhanger. This was one of those fantasy books you’ll be thinking about for years to come.
A Heart For Her Mates by Lola Blix

This was so cute and silly. I loved this little alien novella. A perfect palette cleanser or a little bed time story. Will definitely be reading more from this author!

Sarah hits it out of the park once again.
This last installment in the Pucked Up series was the cherry on top. LOVED these characters so so much. Sloane is a badass omega that loves her designation & will get what she wants when she has her mind set to something. As always Sarah puts crack in her Beta’s I swear they’re always my fave & Ethan was just perfection. The best chaotic golden retriever anyone could ask for. Max was just an angel baby Alpha truly the sweetest man he’s just happy to be here. Bram took me awhile to like him once he got over his shit I really adored this grumpy Alpha.
This is definitely my favorite of this series and I’m so sad it’s over but can’t wait to see what Sarah does next🫶🏻
