Publisher’s Synopsis:
“As a child, Delia Merriweather believed with all her heart that she was a witch. Because all Merriweather women were witches. There was just one problem: they had no magic. As an adult, Delia no longer believes magic even exists. However, when she accidentally breaks a hex and restores her family’s powers, she’s forced to accept a new reality: she is a witch. And maybe that’s why the crushingly handsome guy next door has been looking at her like he’s expecting her to fly off on a broomstick, cackling into the night.
Just when Max thinks he’s done keeping an eye on the bumbling Merriweather women, now he must help his neighbors learn to control their magic before they out witches everywhere. But Delia can’t decide if Max is helping or hexing, and Max can’t tell whether his growing feelings for Delia are real, or if he’s come under the spell of the most powerful—and clueless—witch he’s ever known. And the last thing Max needs is to fall for the one witch who could rule the entire witching world by controlling the hearts of men.”
REVIEW:
This was one of the coziest contemporary witchy romances I have ever read and I absolutely adored it. I’ve also read A LOT of witchy contemporary romances. I found the magic system very interesting and the characters were fully engaging and as layered as a flaky biscuit. There was also a little bit of spice and I will never complain about some tasty spice! It’s very cute, funny, magical, and surprisingly believeable given the subject matter. Overall, this was a superb first entry into a series (yes, I strongly feel this needs to be a series), and I highly recommend it for any of you witchy folk looking for a magical little cozy of found family, hot fellas, amazing women, love, and magic.
Thanks to Netgalley, Avon and Harper Voyager, and Carly Bloom for the advanced copy of this book in exchange for this review. I am so excited for more Willow Root!
