About this listen
New York Times best seller
Erin Sterling casts a delightful spell with a spine-tingling romance full of wishes, witches, and hexes gone wrong.
“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.

Story
Mark Chan this. Mark Chan that. Writer and barista Emily Hung is tired of hearing about the great Mark Chan, the son of her parents’ friends. You’d think he single-handedly stopped climate change and ended child poverty from the way her mother raves about him. But in reality, he’s just a boring, sweater-vest-wearing engineer, and when they’re forced together at Emily’s sister’s wedding, it’s obvious he thinks he’s too good for her. But now that Emily is her family’s last single daughter, her mother is fixated on getting her married and she has her sights on Mark.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

He proposed . . . and I said yes. Normally a jovial occasion for a couple in love, but this proposal has a very different feel. Because the man that I'll be calling my husband blew into town with one thing on his mind . . . to make my life a living nightmare. So why did I say yes? Well, because we both need something from each other. Namely, I want the farm land he currently owns, and he needs a wife in order to inherit his family cabin in his grandfather’s will. So as he so eloquently put it, my hand, for his land.

My initial idea of hiring Zahra was good in theory, but then I kissed her. Things spiraled out of control once I texted her using an alias. By the time I realized where I went wrong, it was too late. People like me don't get happy endings. Not when we're destined to ruin them.

Terrible narrator nearly ruined this book
This is a cozy supernatural rom com which is normally a nice diversion but the narrator was so terribly distracting it made it hard to enjoy the book. There was no understanding or attempt at a Welsh accent for one of the main characters and whatever accent was used for both characters was not American either. Skip this as an audio book and read the real thing

Simple storyline, disappointing narration
Simple story. Not enough detail or follow up of characters. Narration was annoyingly childish and rushed. No range in speaking or accents.

Not for me
The narrator had such a breathy voice that the sex scenes sounded like a 1-900 # and any of the drama was at an 11/10. She didn’t really ever attempt another voice for the various characters.
The witchcraft stuff was consistent throughout the book and I enjoyed the whole candle idea.
There were also too many sex scenes for my liking, but I will give it to the author that the terminology was varied but not exactly original.

fun halloween reads!
I love me some badass witches and had so much fun reading about a small Halloween town and the witches in it in these two Halloween themed witchy books: The Ex Hex and The Kiss Curse by @erinsterlingbooks! I can't wait for book three, and the third Penhallow brother's story.
The Ex Hex is a second chance romance where two witchy bffs/cousins make the mistake of mixing vodka and spell work and hex the boy who broke Vivi's heart. Rhys is forced to come back to the town where he knows the girl who got away still lives, but nothing is going right and this little hex just keeps knocking him down.
The Kiss Curse is all about the competition! Gwyn (Vivi's cousin) and Wells (Rhys' brother), are head to head in the battle of witchy shops! But what Wells doesn't know, is why he is actually in town and what his has been doing to those around him.
Such fun, cute, spooky season quick reads! Definitely recommend if you're feeling witchy!

Disappointing Narration
The story itself was okay but when you write a novel describing the male lead has having a super hot Welsh accent you should have a narrator that can do one! Some novels I brought up by fantastic narration … sadly this one was brought down.

Definitely Recommend!
Content Warning: Alcohol use, Child neglect, Profanity, Sexually explicit scenes
I really liked this one! I thought the second chance romance was well done with the "why" that they came back together. The mixture of romance and fantasy was really well done here to make it into a cozy romance novel rather than something full of high fantasy.
It was a really quick read and I definitely recommend it!

This was a good listen
This is definitely a good fall read, puts your in the fall/Halloween mood as it’s set around Halloween and references a lot of magic. The story I felt was fast, predictable but entertaining. The characters were likeable, however as an audiobook, I found myself drifting off from time to time and had to concentrate to focus back on the story. I think as a paper copy it may have held me more. This book was highly recommended on a lot of booktok’s as a top fall read.
Is a good quick one!

Cute story. I didn’t mind it for some light listening though I was surprised by the graphic sex scenes. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t really mind that. I just wasn’t expecting it so be aware if that’s not your thing.

A Delightful Romcom
A little spicier than I usually enjoy, but overall a very delightful romantic fluff to make you feel the warm and cozies.
The only thing that threw me was how much like Jennifer Coolidge the narrator sounds at times. Not a complaint, though! It was a fun aspect IMO.
