Publisher's summary

Life in a small town can be tough. It can be even tougher when you're a witch whose magic regularly backfires. But Summer Thorne only wants one thing: to create the perfect sanctuary for unwanted animals. Nothing and no one is going to stop her. Not even the sexy sheriff who is determined to shut down her rescue center. And certainly not the laboratory where she illegally obtained her mischievous chimpanzee, Morty.

Sheriff Cooper Carlyle has one goal: to keep his town safe. That includes his stubborn neighbor, Summer, whether she wants him to or not. When the animals of Summer's menagerie get loose and create havoc, he decides enough is enough. But things aren't always as they appear, and Coop stumbles upon the secret the Thorne sisters have been hiding.

Coop and Summer discover Morty holds the key to unlock a 20-year-old mystery surrounding the death of Summer's mother. Now Coop is faced with breaking the law he is sworn to uphold in order to protect Summer and her beloved pet from a threat more dangerous than any of them imagined.

Contains mature themes.

loved this book

coulsnt stop listening wish all the books in the series were available but I read them on kindle

Good story

I didn’t like the love interest. He was wishy washy and hatefully volatile. I would have dumps him.

Average story line and the characters are weak

This second book is kinda weak alone. The story line is unclear and the characters are very predictable.

Fun Listen!

I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to Summer Magic. I have read the printed series and was thrilled when I found them on Audible. The narrator gives life to the characters and makes the story more interesting. Summer and her animals keep Coop busy. The story kept me interested and entertained to the last page. Absolutely recommend.

need more

It was just too short. I wanted it to keep going. I can't wait to read the rest.

Just okay for me.

Well, if you want ANY questions answered you’ll have to move on to the next book, and probably the next one after that. The ONLY thing left at the end of this story was a HEA. Anything else to make you understand the book will come in Autumn Magic, maybe. Which I don’t intend to read. Coop and Summer were too on-again-off-again too much for me. The magic was fun but the story just wasn’t there.

One reviewer on Amazon said this was geared for teenagers but, umm, no. There was sex in this, and the F-bomb was used 53 times. WTH are teenagers reading nowadays, according to that reviewer? So glad my kids are grown.

As to the narration: Abby Craden did an okay job with this book. I don’t usually like her because her male voices are just bad. But she’s settled that down now.

Delightful story and great narration

Summer Magic is a delightful story with a great mix of magic, humor, and heat. Abby Craden does a great job of voicing all of the characters and making the story enjoyable.

love in the air

Light and fluffy. Nice to have with all the negative vibe this days. At first it gave me a tooth ach. Glad I gave a try and continued to lesson. Got better!

Not one I will recommend

narrator was pretty good. But, overall the story line was does she want me do I want her no yes no yes. cannot even be considered a cozy light read.

Amazing!

this is my third time reading this series and I know it won't be the last. I just love the Thornes and how real they are. they all seem like people I know and love in real life!
