Curses & Cold Brew

A Cozy Sapphic Paranormal Rom-Com (Maple Hollow, Book 2)

De: Ali K. Mulford, K. Elle Morrison

Narrado por: Bridget Bordeaux, Andria Mae

A witch makes a deal with an irresistible demon, but when souls start to go missing, all Hell breaks loose . . .

Maple Hollow is known for its endless October charm, gossiping ghosts, and pumpkin spice everything. Not the sort of town you’d imagine a designer suit-wearing demon to call home. But when Ramona Henry’s souls start to go missing, she sets out to find the thief, and that means reluctantly calling in the help of a certain apothecary witch who bears her mark.

Iris Stonewood is more than Maple Hollow’s most flirtatious witch—she’s also a thrill-seeking thorn in Ramona’s side. Bored of being the third wheel to her two best friends, Iris decides she’s going to be the Watson to Ramona’s Sherlock. Their banter is sharper than a vampire’s grin–and twice as deadly.

Now that souls are vanishing faster than candy on Halloween night, will Iris and Ramona be able to catch the culprit before it turns its ghoulish gaze on Iris?

Everyone’s a suspect, from the broomstick busybodies to the vampire knitting club. With the mystery unfolding, Iris and Ramona hunt through the shadows to unmask the villain while trying to ignore their sizzling chemistry that burns hotter than a Halloween bonfire.

It’s tricks, treats, and just a touch of damnation in this cozy sapphic paranormal rom-com. Expect a hellishly good time in the second installment of the international best-selling Maple Hollow series.

Witchy vibes

I love how we get the story line of the other characters. But the ending was not the best

Great storytelling of a fantastical queer relationship

I loved the first book and this one didn’t disappoint! Such a good way to tie the two books together, and I cannot wait for the next one!

Decent but not my Favorite

This is a fun continuation of exploring Maple Hollow town romance; however, I just happen to prefer Jordyn and Harlow’s story in “Pumpkin Spice and Poltergeist.” This second book focuses on the unlikely partnership between demon Ramona and witch Iris. Witches and demons in Maple Hollow occupy quite different spheres, so I was never quite sure why these two were drawn together outside of the superficial— a bit more depth would have been nice. Nevertheless, the storyline was not bad— Iris and Ramona, despite it all, teaming up to successfully solve a mystery and following their “romantic” desires for one another.
