Summary

New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins， writing as Erin Sterling， casts a spell with a spine-tingling romance full of wishes， witches， and hexes gone wrong。

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。

This reads just like Rachel Hawkins Twitter， and I was loving it！ There were some really funny parts， and I liked all the characters， and their chemistry。 Perfect book to get you in the fall spirit！

A light， silly， fun fall romance。 The perfect breezy Halloween book。

The Ex Hex was exactly what I wanted to read this October- a fun romantic comedy with some magic thrown in。 Vivy cursed the man who broke her heart， Rhys， nine years ago。 Of course， she thought it wasn't a real hex， but when he returns to Graves Glen， everything starts going crazy。 Together， Vivy and Rhys must try to end the curse。 This was such a fun read and I can't recommend it enough。 I look forward to more books like this from the author in the future。 The Ex Hex was exactly what I wanted to read this October- a fun romantic comedy with some magic thrown in。 Vivy cursed the man who broke her heart， Rhys， nine years ago。 Of course， she thought it wasn't a real hex， but when he returns to Graves Glen， everything starts going crazy。 Together， Vivy and Rhys must try to end the curse。 This was such a fun read and I can't recommend it enough。 I look forward to more books like this from the author in the future。 。。。more

3。5⭐️s for a really fun story， the ending just felt a little anticlimactic。

Strong three stars！ I loved the setting and the concept - the witchy stuff always gets me。 I'm not entirely sure why it didn't reach 4 stars。 Perhaps because I wasn't a big fan of the narrator？ I didn't lik the narrator's voice， and when one of the main characters is from Wales I do except the narration to match; not an American accent。 Strong three stars！ I loved the setting and the concept - the witchy stuff always gets me。 I'm not entirely sure why it didn't reach 4 stars。 Perhaps because I wasn't a big fan of the narrator？ I didn't lik the narrator's voice， and when one of the main characters is from Wales I do except the narration to match; not an American accent。 。。。more

I flew through this。 This is exactly what I needed。 Best way I have to describe this book is witchy romcom。 There are rumors of a 2nd book in the works。 Not about Vivi and Ryus this time。 But it is set in Penhallows。 And probably about a different Jones。

Anne ，

Wickedly good reading。 Easygoing and fun， with enough emotions in the mix， that made me fall under its spell。

Erin Thomson ，

The Ex Hex was such an enjoyable read！ I loved Vivi from the first page and Rhys was so roguishly charming。 Their chemistry was 🔥🔥🔥 and the supporting cast of characters were brilliant。 Would definitely recommend！

Charming and light。 A fun read。

2。5？ I’m seriously starting to think literature has something against me this year ☹️

Mandy ，

A romcom with magic？！ Sign me up！ This book was fun， cute， and witchy！ Perfect for an October read。 Rhys Penhollow is absolutely adorable。 I do have a weakness for a man with an accent。 Especially when they’re Welsh with dark hair and blue eyes。

3。5 ⭐This was a VERY fun read。 Each character felt very real and fully fledged。。。I like when the author crafts a character well enough that I can imagine them existing even when they're not on the page。 This book employs a switching pov narrative style， which can be hard to execute， but the switches were seamless and really made the story fly。 My biggest critique， and why I didn't rate this book 4 ⭐ is that the pacing was off。 It started off great and then about 1/3 of the way through it felt li 3。5 ⭐This was a VERY fun read。 Each character felt very real and fully fledged。。。I like when the author crafts a character well enough that I can imagine them existing even when they're not on the page。 This book employs a switching pov narrative style， which can be hard to execute， but the switches were seamless and really made the story fly。 My biggest critique， and why I didn't rate this book 4 ⭐ is that the pacing was off。 It started off great and then about 1/3 of the way through it felt like Sterling hit 2x speed on everything and rushed the resolution。 The climax of the book was a little too easy and the tension leading up to it really fizzled part way through。 Nevertheless， it's still a fun October read and Sterling is a fun， inventive writer。 Just wish the story， especially the very end， wasn't so rushed that it felt like I was missing emotional and character development。 。。。more

There were some plot holes， but this was so fun to read and hard to put down

Amanda Lightheart bodin ，

VERY steamy book and strong language throughout （plethora of F 💣’s）。 Storyline was cute but personally hard to get through with all the language。

Erin Wilson ，

3。75This was really cute！！ Quite funny and the perfect Halloween read。 It had Practical Magic， Sabrina the Teenage Witch vibes and I really enjoyed it。

I loved this so， so much。 The characters are fun， and there is an excellent balance between quirky mysteries and real suspense。 Ugh， that ending！

The only thing you need to know is that I'm an absolute sucker for romantic shit。This was so enjoyable and fun， and the only reason I'm not giving it more stars is because I knew exactly what was going to happen next。Still， such a nice first October read！Definitely planning on reading more of Erin's books。 The only thing you need to know is that I'm an absolute sucker for romantic shit。This was so enjoyable and fun， and the only reason I'm not giving it more stars is because I knew exactly what was going to happen next。Still， such a nice first October read！Definitely planning on reading more of Erin's books。 。。。more
