“A delightful and witty take on witchy mayhem.” — Popsugar

Nine years ago, Vivienne Jones nursed her broken heart like any young witch would: vodka, weepy music, bubble baths…and a curse on the horrible boyfriend. Sure, Vivi knows she shouldn’t use her magic this way, but with only an “orchard hayride” scented candle on hand, she isn’t worried it will cause him anything more than a bad hair day or two.

That is until Rhys Penhallow, descendent of the town’s ancestors, breaker of hearts, and annoyingly just as gorgeous as he always was, returns to Graves Glen, Georgia. What should be a quick trip to recharge the town’s ley lines and make an appearance at the annual fall festival turns disastrously wrong. With one calamity after another striking Rhys, Vivi realizes her silly little Ex Hex may not have been so harmless after all.

Suddenly, Graves Glen is under attack from murderous wind-up toys, a pissed off ghost, and a talking cat with some interesting things to say. Vivi and Rhys have to ignore their off the charts chemistry to work together to save the town and find a way to break the break-up curse before it’s too late.

• A great read for spooky-season nights
• A perfect addition to any Halloween reading list

great easy going story

story is pretty entertaining. typical boy loves girl, girl loves boy and don't want to admit it. but it was very descriptive and detailed and definitely got me in the Halloween mood. overall I enjoyed it and finished it in one day!

The narrator is fine, it’s the story that’s the problem

For all the reviewers that are saying the narrator is ruining it…I just don’t hear what you do. I think the narrator has a clear voice and I did not mind listening to her at all. If Vivi’s character sounds pathetic…it’s because the author makes her that way. Almost 10 years on from a 3 month relationship when she was 19, the main character seems like she never emotionally recovered or developed from it, but how would we really know because the characters are sorely lacking in dimension. And, the magic aspect of it all is just so disappointing. There is so much potential but it’s disconnected and silly rather than interesting and fulfilling. How many times can she describe magical things as “witchy”?

Definitely not the worst story I’ve ever heard, but not the magical escape I was looking for.

LOVED IT!!!

This is a fun, engaging story, and the narrator has the perfect delivery. LOVED IT! I want more from this author and this narrator.

Cute easy read

Nothing very new or exciting about this book but it was a quick easy read. You didn’t have to think tj much while listening to it. The main character was pretty likable and the male love interest was respectful and not one of those dominating jerk types. My main gripe with it is the narrator. She turns up her voice at the end of each sentence and it feels like an incomplete though every time. It was honestly so hard to get through I almost stopped listening a number of times. Also the male lead was from Wales and was supposed to have an accent as evidenced in the slang used in dialogue but the narrator didn’t do any accent or attempt at changing her voice really. The story was fine but definitely get a sample before you sign on to the whole book.

Fun cute story, narrator takes away

This was a fun, cute story line but the narrator is really distracting. Too over enthusiastic and her version of Rhy’s is just outright cringey.
