Summary from Goodreads:
It's one hex of an attraction in this romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Jessica Clare.
When Reggie Johnson answers a job ad in the paper, she's astonished to find that she's not applying to work at her favorite card game, Spellcraft: The Magicking. Instead, she's applying to be an actual familiar for an actual witch. As in, real magic.
The new job has a few perks - great room and board, excellent pay, and she's apprenticing to a powerful witch. Sure, the witch is a bit eccentric. And sure, there was that issue with the black cat Reggie would prefer to forget about. The biggest problem, however, is warlock Ben Magnus, her employer's nephew and the most arrogant, insufferable, maddening man to ever cast a spell.
Reggie absolutely hates him. He's handsome, but he's also bossy and irritating and orders her around. Ben's butt might look great in a crystal ball vision, but that's as far as it goes. But when someone with a vendetta targets the household, she finds herself working with Ben to break a deadly curse. Apparently, when they're not fighting like cats and dogs, things get downright...bewitching.
Review:
I think I've found a new favorite read.
This book kept me entertained from start to finish. Jessica Clare has a wonderful writing voice and can weave a story that's not just sexy, but has deep character development that makes this more than just another romance.
I was really pulled into this story through the first half of the book. There was obvious tension between Reggie and the mysterious nephew, Ben. A tension that seemed to be an issue, but through the twists and turns of the story, turns into something more. It wasn't until the second half of the book that their relationship really picks up and... gets a little steamy.
The paranormal elements throughout the story are on point and I loved plot line. So amazing! This was a wonderful read with just enough steam. I can't wait to see what Jessica Clare writes next.
Received an advance reader copy in exchange for a fair review.
