Publisher's summary

Love is a hex of a thing. Former childhood sweethearts fake a relationship in this charming witchy romcom.

There’s nothing wrong with being a wallflower. Not to Emmaline Bluewater, anyway. Emma may have been born into witch society, but her days of trying to fit in where she doesn’t belong are over—they ended seven years ago, when the man she’d hoped to marry left town without a word. She’s much happier now, living a delightfully mundane human life in Chicago and running her bar, Toil and Trouble.

Until Bastian Truenote walks through the door and announces that he wants her back.

Bastian had his reasons for leaving—even if he can’t tell Emma what they are. Now, to win Emma’s heart, he’s got to face down an adorably goofy dog familiar, a best friend who’s all too eager to hit him with a carefully aimed hex, and a woman who’s far from the meek witch he remembers.

Magical contracts aren’t easily broken, but as far as Emma’s concerned, not even a marriage of convenience will have her falling under Bastian’s spell again…

Can you say stereotypes

The writing is inoffensive. The plot is ordinary. The book is a passable road trip rag. If only Emmaline was not so predictably either tongue tied or distrustful all the time. If only Bastian was not so typically the hero there might have been an interesting story here. The chemistry and banter between the mains is okay. Mother Bluewater could have been less flawed and still the villain but that would have required a depth of characterization lacking here. And what’s up with the ending? I feel like Morgan”s editor called and said “You’re overdue and can’t have anymore extensions so finish the dang book tonight.” So Morgan made us drag through the tedium of the earlier repetitive chapters and when we finally get someplace interesting she jumps to the last chapter ignoring all the exciting plot developments and scenes we want to witness that were just revealed (the Emma invoking the new contract element, Mother’s subsequent hissy fit and steps to stop it, the showdown, Bastion’s reaction, is Sophie’s secret safe…) to give us a predictable and not even that good resolution to the romance. I don’t know if this is supposed to be the first in the series but I think I’ll pass on the rest.

Boring

It's a waste even for 2 for 1 deal. FML is a really a push over and lame. Wish I could return this audiobooks. Can't listen passed the 3rd chapter, that is fast forwarding each chapter.
