Our couple may still have a few surprises ahead of them, but they are not going to let that stop them now.

This is book twelve of the series and likely the end of the series. While it works pretty well as a standalone, reading them in order is highly recommended.

The story is a paranormal romance. The story is well written and easy to read with well developed characters and a setting that has been detailed in many books. This particular slice of the world is a coffee shop filled with fun. The plot involves a bit of action, a bit of mystery and a bit of romance all mixed together to make a fast paced and fun story. Overall, another entertaining story from our author and I really enjoyed this series.

Highly recommended.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout for review purposes.

While Willow thoroughly enjoyed her trip to South America and touring the coffee plantations with Azil, she is perfectly willing to admit that she is happy to be home. The best thing is that it looks like their troubles from the Sect is finally behind them, and a couple of pleasant surprises makes their homecoming even sweeter.
While I hate that this series has come to an end, I loved reading about the happy future Willow and Azil have in store for them. This is a sweetly romantic series with well written and compelling characters, an evil cult, a sometimes-mysterious feline, and a happily ever after. I highly recommend this book and series to other readers.

I'm usually bad at saying goodbye, but in this case it was clear that the end of the series was there. We've been following these characters for quite a few books. We've gotten to know them. We've gotten to care about them, but it's clear that it's time to let them go and let them live their lives in peace. I read this entire last book therefore with a smile on my face. It's clear that we're leaving both characters in a far better place than we found them. They've grown and learned and they now know what they want and need. They're dreaming of the future, but they also know what they want the future to look like. I will miss them, but I will be happy knowing that they have gotten the happily ever after they deserved!

Coffee, travel, and street food!!!
I think this couple probably has more in common than most others do when it comes to lifestyle. Yes, others work together in the same field; these two grow career-wise. Yes, others talk about a future; these two actually planned.

Cousins are da bomb…best relationships in the family! Totally love how they are such an intricate part of Willow’s life…and Azi fits right in. I’d get married all over again just to have Oakley’s lemon meringue pie, Black Forest gâteaux, and crème brûlée cupcakes!

Fave line:
‘Don't diminish your accomplishments.’

May we all develop relationships like those in this series.

I am so upset. I can’t believe this series is over. I have come to adore Willow and Azil, but I must say this sendoff was a wonderful one. This series ender is basically a wrap up of the series, and we find out so many things before the end. I don’t want to say too much and spoil anything, but I am satisfied at how this series ended even if I would have liked more. This is a well-written, fun, romantic series, and I am so glad to have met them. Highly recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.

“… someone you love enough to go up against an evil cult for.”

In many respects this entire story feels like a series finale to a beloved tv show with an ensemble cast. Fan favorite characters have sweet moments, the lead characters wrap up a few loose ends, moments earlier in the series get callbacks and small payoffs, and overall this is the feel good “holiday episode” that I came out of reminded why I had fallen in love with Willow and her cousins, and this Universe of stories.

I read Ancient Nightcap and That’s A Wrap in Kobo Plus and chose to share my thoughts.

[Stephanie · Rating 5 out of 5]

After spending time in South America Willow and Azil are back home ready to start living their life and planning their future since the curse has been removed and the sect is finally being prosecuted although this feels like a wonderful wrap up to their wonderful story you can't help but feel like some of your family members are leaving home because I won't be hearing anything new but the spin off books are amazing and I can't wait to read more of those books.

Things are finally looking up for Willow and Azíl, the Sect in the rearview, a great trip to South America for the two of them and now back home, finally a place of peace where they can start laying the proper foundations of their future together. I have followed the couple from the first book and I have loved the journey they have taken together and the happy surprises in this book which make their homecoming all the sweeter are heartwarming and I loved the book.

Winding Up the Story . . .

This is the kind of story that the reader hates to let go of. But now Willow and Azíl seem to have a chance to find true happiness together. With luck, they can settle down to a normal life. This has been a wonderful journey for the reader to share, and I hope at some point, the author will bring them back for a visit so we know how everything ultimately turned out. But for now, we have a happy smile for them and hope they will have a good life together. Don’t miss this one!

I don't want it to end!

After a wonderful time in South America, Willow and Azil return home to their flat above the coffee shop. It's good to be back now that the curse is not hanging over their heads and the Sect is being prosecuted. They can finally start planning a future.

This is such an enjoyable series. I don't want it to end but I am also interested in reading some of the spin-off books too. I received a free copy but my review is honest and voluntary.

[Michelle · Rating 5 out of 5]

And they all lived happily ever after. After so many trials and tribulations Willow and Azíl finally get the peace and the future that they dreamed about and one hundred percent deserved. An ending but not too bittersweet though I’ll miss their adventures the wrap up was lovely. Quick read full of the details you want of the future and the happiness of the two main characters we’ve followed from the beginning.

I had no idea what we’d be getting out of the conclusion to Willow and Azil’s story, but this was everything I didn’t even know I wanted it to be. This book was the perfect balance of new plot bunnies for us to chase down, along with bringing all the existing ones home. And I kind of adored the sneak peak into their future in the epilogue. It was absolutely perfect for this rather unconventional pair.

Let's Get Married!!

I was so very glad that I read this story. I was hoping that Azil was going to propose to her in the last story. I am also very happy to see that Azil & Willow have chosen to have a wedding that feels the best for them both & a family to follow. It's a so called typical dream for a couple. I'm sure that they will have an Amazigh/Reid future with alot more children, heaps of love & happiness between them all. Thanks again for an amazing series Laura!!

[Debbie Eyre · Rating 5 out of 5]

Willow and Azil have had one hell of a journey but what a journey it has been. From the very start I have been hooked and now with the sect in the review mirror, our witch and warlock finally have the chance to start their life together and finally get their hea. With a few last surprises, the author has bought everything together and although sad to see this come to an end, I have loved every minute of it.

[Bookaddict · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this series - with the mix of old and new, and two different worlds.
Both Willow and Azil are amazing characters, and the roller-coaster that was their lives kept me glued to the books.
So this was a bitter-sweet. And end to an amazing journey.
And what better end than Willow and Azil with Amandine and twins, and let’s not forget Spooky and Boo.

This is book 12 in Greenwood's Cauldron Coffee Shop series and another great, quick addition to the series and seemingly the end. Our main characters journey continues with Willow and Azil returning home from South America and laying down the foundation for a HEA future together. Short but heartwarming. Sad to see this series come to an end but loved every minute of it!

Everything finally comes together.
Vacaton cruise, engagement, published paper on the Stolah and life finally feeling comfortable! Willow and Azil have had quite the drama from the time she received Azil's teapot up to the cruise and they make a great team! Now more life together with a wonderful ending and a great story! Love this lil series!

I am sorry to see this series end. The author did a great job of bringing it all together and ending with a smile on everyone’s face. It was a good read and made me feel that it all ended well. I really like Azil and Willow and all the cousins and friends. It was especially fun to have characters from the other series come in to this book. I would recommend reading this series.

This is the final entry in Willow and Azil’s story, this story wraps up all the outstanding storylines and brings in many of the characters from the other books. It’s a very sweet ending to their story, and the epilogue just adds even more to the story.

Their problems with the Sect and Azil's curse seem to be at an end. Does it mean that they get to have a life? Willow still gets a scare - and who is the addition that Spooky has brought into their lives? I have loved the characters and story lines throughout this series!.

Awesome story. I loved it. I really liked the ending too. I am sorry that it is the end of this series though. Maybe you can make a Christmas book or two later. Visit once in a while to let us know how things are going. I received a complimentary review copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

A wonderful cozy finale!
The last little adventure of Willow and Azil and it's a fun, short story with a nice look at the cast of characters and where they are going from here.
The story is wonderful and should be enjoyed in order after the first eleven.

The twelfth book in the Cauldron Coffee Shop, this series gets better with each new story, this is the second from the last book and I can not wait to read it also. For Willow and Azíl, the greatest adventure is still ahead...a chance at a normal life. If you have been following this series you do not want to miss this story.

And so the series ends…..but their new life together is just beginning! This is a most satisfying ending to a wonderful and creative series. It is all positive, loving and typical of all the characters. There is a lot of looking to the future and the epilogue is just delightful. Loved it!.

Willow and Azil are finally rid of the SECT. They travel to South America to tour coffee plantations, get engaged, and plan a wedding, amongst other things. What more can anyone ask for? This quick read is full of romance, ending in a HEA. Very highly recommended.

Having followed Azil and Willow's story it was good to see that they decided to take the leap and get married. I loved this sweet ending to the series as well as how the author wrapped up all the outstanding storylines as well as allowing us to meet up again with many of the characters from the earlier books.

I loved the epilogue.

[Claire Trickett · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm a little sad that this series has ended! I love these characters so much and will actually miss reading more about their lives.

If you haven't started this series yet, then I can highly recommend it!

Azil and Willow went to South America, the Sect got raided so that helped with the situation with Azil they were trying to keep him from getting recursed. The cat that had adopted her brought home a kitten and got engaged. Good book!.

Willow and Azil might final have a chance at a normal life, which is all they've wanted and it might finally be within reach with the Sect finally behind them. They definitely find some surprises in store for them once back from their South America trip but they're working towards their happily ever after.
