The Scottish Charms #1
Love's a Witch
Charmed meets The Pumpkin Spice Café in this cozy romantasy from New York Times bestselling author Tricia O’Malley.
She’s hexed. He’s vexed. And for Scotland’s most magical small-town, their feud might just spell disaster.
Sloane MacGregor swore she’d never return to Briarhaven, but with her twenty-fifth birthday looming—the day witches come into their magic—her grandmother summons her and her sisters back for one tiny task: break the centuries-old curse haunting their bloodline.
Knox Douglas, Briarhaven’s grumpy mayor, has worked tirelessly to make his town a haven for magical folk. The last thing he needs is a cursed MacGregor wreaking havoc. It doesn’t matter he once crushed on her. For the sake of Briarhaven, Sloane has to go.
But magic has other plans—and in Briarhaven, love really is a witch.

I haven’t read a full book in about a month because school + being sick + work + life in general have been busy, and I’m like why did I put this one off because… IT’S AMAZING!!
Thank you to Gallery Books/Simon & Schuster and Tricia O’Malley for the physical ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Pub date: August 26, 2025 and you NEED to read this! It’s the perfect cozy fall/winter read. 📚🍂🌨️♥️
This story follows our FMC, Sloane, who returns to her hometown of Briarhaven in Scotland with her sisters, Lyra and Nova, to visit their grandmother Broca and finally break the family curse that’s been haunting them for centuries.
Sloane is so relatable in the “eldest daughter who has to be strong for everyone” energy, the protective streak, the family wounds, the guarded heart, kinda way. She feels real. Lyra and Nova are the chaotic younger sisters who will have you laughing out loud, and Broca is delightfully unhinged in that tough love, zero filter grandma way.
Our MMC, Knox, is basically the mayor and Sloane’s former childhood crush (and she was his). He’s stubborn, steady, and fiercely protective of Briarhaven and the magical community that calls it home and the town adores him right back.
The side characters are so great too including Liam, Tam, Raven, Oswald, Blue, and all the other sweet, quirky animals. And yes… maybe even an adorable cow 🥹🐮
My only tiny critique is that the curse solving part dragged a bit. They talked about doing it more than they actually did it. But honestly, I still loved the book regardless. It’s warm and comforting, full of heart, and the sense of community is just perfect. Everyone looks out for each other, and you can feel that love on the page.
I cannot wait for Lyra’s book next (and hopefully Nova’s… and maybe Raven/Liam??? 👀🤭)
If you’re craving a cute, magical, cozy read with family bonds, small town charm, and a sprinkle of romance, definitely pick this one up! ♥️

✨Witchy chaos, irresistible chemistry, and a fairy tale town brimming with magical mischief—this cozy romantasy is pure charm from start to finish!
From the first page, I was swept into the windswept magic of Briarhaven, a Scottish town where spells sizzle, curses linger, and second chances just might be real. At the heart of it all is Sloane MacGregor, the fiercely loyal eldest sister of a long-cursed witchy bloodline. Called back to town just as her powers begin to awaken, Sloane must find a way to break the centuries-old curse shadowing her family. The only problem? Knox Douglas—Briarhaven’s gruff, no-nonsense mayor—isn’t exactly thrilled to see her… and definitely not prepared for what her magic stirs in both the town and his heart.
The romance here is everything you want in an enemies-to-lovers arc: heated glares, witty banter, and a slow-burning connection that feels earned and electric. Sloane and Knox have incredible chemistry that sparks across the page, and it was genuinely satisfying to see their guarded hearts begin to soften in each other’s presence. And don’t even get me started on the familiars—a mini highland cow and a tiny dragon? Adorable doesn’t even begin to cover it.
What I loved most was how the book blended lighthearted magical fun with emotional undercurrents: Sloane’s burden of responsibility, her deep bond with her sisters, and the struggle to balance control with vulnerability. The family dynamic was touching, the setting felt alive with folklore and small-town quirks, and the whimsical tone made this an easy, comforting read.
While it didn’t dive too deeply into the darker themes, that breezy tone suited the story perfectly. It's like curling up with a Hallmark movie—if Hallmark had witches, curses, and a grumpy Scotsman guarding the town from magical disasters.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3.5 rounded up)
A very huge thanks to NetGalley and Gallery Books for providing me with this delicious romance witchery fantasy I absolutely devoured in exchange for my honest review. I’m already excited for the next MacGregor sister’s story—bring on more hexes, heart, and Highland charm!

What to Expect:
➼ Scottish Setting
➼ Small Town
➼ Witchy Romance
➼ Grumpy x Grumpy
➼ She’s Hexed
➼ Found Family
➼ Second Chance
➼ Chaotic Magic
➼ Found Family
➼ Magical Pets/Winged Dog (Emberwolf)
➼ Cozy Romantasy
➼ Dual Narration
➼ Dual First Person POV
I’m not claiming that every pet person will love this, but I do think you may need to be an animal lover for this plot to have a shot at working for you. There is a lot of focus placed on these magical pets and their ability to communicate with them through the use of magic. I could tell this was intended to be a big draw for readers who might fantasize about having their own animal familiar, but since I personally couldn’t care less, I found it pretty off putting that so much of the story was centered around them.
Additionally, I really disliked the FMC and the MMC didn’t hold much appeal for me either. They are very grumpy towards each other, but the reasoning for this wasn’t written well. He basically doesn’t like her because he’s so beholden to the town and her being there is causing magic to go haywire. This held up fine until they got together and he decided that he barely cares about what happens to the town as long as they can be together. I know it was meant to be romantic, but this 180 degree turn around impacted the overall credibility of the plot.
This was another book I really should have DNF’d but I was trying so hard to get into the cozy spirit. I really wish I could say I loved this one more!

One Liner: Enjoyed it!
Sloane MacGregor vowed never to return to Briarhaven. But with her 25th birthday approaching (the day witches get their magic), she answers the summons of her grandmother and sisters. She also has a teeny task – to break an ancient curse on their bloodline.
The town’s mayor, Knox Douglas, worked hard to make the town a safe place for magic folk. He doesn’t want the cursed woman messing things up, even if he had a crush on Sloane long ago.
But… magic has its own plans!
The story comes in Sloane's (more %) and Knox’s first-person POVs.
My Thoughts:
This is the first book in the series, so the overarching plot is left open. Also, the book divides its time between romance and setting the stage for the central conflict. You’ll enjoy it more if you are prepared for these two.
There’s insta-lust, though the characters have known each other in their teens. Since we get only a couple of short references to the past, you should be prepared for insta stuff. Though the rest of the book is cozy, the romance is hot and steamy (3.5+ with many ‘searing kisses’, lol). This combination could have been a bit odd, but I was expecting it based on all that inner monologue.
Family and relationships, small town communities, and a magical setting (such a beautiful place!) are the highlights of the book. Magic is seamlessly integrated into the plotline. The bond between the sisters is realistic. The grandma is a badass. Totally love her. A few side characters like Raven, Dorothy, Henry, etc., are sweet. I hope Raven gets her own book.
Do you see a cutesy with blue wings on the cover? That’s Blue, an emberwolf (a cross between a dragon and a werewolf) who loves cheese and flies like a drunken bee. Then, there’s a blind cat named Oswald and a wheelchair bound Highlander coo named Higgs. And… another favourite fantasy creature. You can tell they add a lot of charm to the story.
The curse is mentioned at many places, though it is dealt with only towards the end. And since this will be a series, there’s only a partial resolution. The next book has to be Lyra’s, and we know who the guy is!
To summarize, Love's a Witch is a cozy witchy romance that also deals with themes like dysfunctional families, finding one’s roots, overbearing parents, and longing for a place called home.
Thank you, NetGalley and Gallery Books, for the eARC. This review is voluntary and contains my honest opinion about the book.

✨Never harm, always charm✨
I’ll never stop chasing that feeling I got from Charmed. This had that same charmed adjacent vibe with the witchy magic, the romance, and the sisterhood love 🥰
🎧 And the audiobook narration was fire.

Well, okay then.
That pretty much sums up my feelings after reading LOVE’S A WITCH. The book didn’t work for me, but I’m sure it will be exactly right for a lot of readers.
My issues:
➛The plot was supposed to be about a family of witches needing to break a curse. And yet, until near the end, the sisters do pretty much nothing aside from reminding each other that they need to break said curse. The solution, when it comes, is too simple and totally anticlimactic.
➛The “romance” is 100% angsty lust. We get zero depth and no buildup. Some would call this instalove, but for me it was instalust. There are open-door sex scenes for those who enjoy them, and for those who don’t, consider this your warning.
➛I listened to the audiobook, which is narrated by Imogen Church and John Hartley. I enjoyed Hartley’s parts, but Church’s interpretation of the sisters was too animated and overly exuberant for me.

After finishing a few books with some pretty wild cliffhangers, this book was the perfect read to reset my month. I smiled sooooo much while reading this and just had so much fun. It was lighthearted, funny, and just a warm and cozy story. The MacGregor family are the absolute best, and the adorable town they’re from completely captured my heart.
The romance was romancing. He falls first and hard and is literally a knight in a shiny kilt. 😂 (I make myself laugh.) He even has a baby cow… our MMC rehabilitates magical creatures, and this Scot is a walking green flag.
PLUS, there are ember wolves (a combination of a wolf and a dragon), and they may be my new favorite magical creature. Blue, the ember wolf in this story, is obsessed with cheese, so I feel like we’re meant to be besties.
I’m really excited that there are more books coming in this series! This is a standalone romance in an interconnected world, and I cannot wait for book two. I adore the sisters and Grandma Broca so much. This would be a perfect fall read if you love cozy witch stories with all the banter, magic, and spice you could ask for.
Thank you @gallerybooks for the free book.

Love's a Witch is the perfect cozy fantasy. From the magical-themed shops of Briarhaven, the adorable animal familiars, and a family curse, Love's a Witch had every component I love in a cozy witchy romance. Sloan and Knox's relationship is the perfect blend of slow-burn and enemies-to-lovers. I loved their witty banter and the overall chemistry that in the end, led to some spicy scenes. Overall, this was such a fun romance to read, and I would highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a magical Fall read to add to their TBR. I am excited to see what is next for the Macgregor sisters in the next book of The Scottish Charm series.
Love's a Witch is out August 26th.

An unfortunate DNF. I wanted this to give Erin Sterling’s The Ex Hex and it has the potential, but I unfortunately couldn’t get past the first couple of chapters. It started just a few pages in when the FMC exhibited extreme pick-me/mary sue energy by commenting on how much prettier and cooler her sisters are and how she is an uninteresting troll by comparison. Then in walks in the MMC and before they utter a single word to each other she describes him as the “sexiest man I’ve ever seen.” I love romance, but I need a little more creativity in the storytelling to stay interested.
Thank you to the publisher for the ARC, unfortunately this one wasn’t for me.

I really enjoyed this book and thought the audiobook was really well done. I loved the eldest daughter story line and the sassy grandma was a bonus. I liked how they figured out how to solve the curse and loved how the FMC woke up with new skills every day.
My biggest problem was how did no one think to solve the curse in that way much earlier? It sounds like the town liked them when they were young so why wasn’t it just fixed then? Also the MMC went from hating her to loving her way too fast for my taste.

this was so cute and whimsical! this was perfect for getting into the fall mood. this felt like packing up and heading to scotland and i loved the setting! the premise of the generational curse that has plagued sloane’s family for years was so intriguing and fun. this had a great enemies to lovers trope, which is one of the best tropes! tricia o’malley did a great job with the slow burn in this, full of tension and yearning which i adored. i loved knox’s character and was rooting for sloane and knox the entire time. i highly recommend checking this one out for the perfect witchy, fall read!

2.5 ⭐️
i had such high hopes for this 🥲 i picked it up on a whim because the design got me and the summary sounded so good. a witchy romance set in scotland with cozy small town vibes? say less, but this was just not it. the chemistry between the characters was basically nonexistent and the attempt at making it a lowkey enemies to lovers story was a failure that only complicated the romantic arc. i liked the plot line about the curse, but they really didn't focus on solving it enough as it was literally terrorizing the entire town. i liked sloane, but i really didn't vibe with knox and his immediate over-sexualization of this woman he claimed to hate. i can't stand when every male pov chapter is just sexual thoughts of the fmc. also sloane's sisters were bitches to her constantly and it was supposed to be funny but it really just came off as mean and it rubbed me the wrong way. but i loved blue and haggis so so so much and they were definitely the highlight of this book. i don't think i'll be committing to the sequels. :(

I'm a Tricia O'Malley stan account and had a grand ole time reading this cozy witchy read! And dare I say this is Tricia's spiciest book yet??
✨ Cozy and Spicy Romantasy
✨ Small Magical Scottish Town
✨ Centuries Old Family Curse
✨ Second Chance and Enemies to Lovers
✨ "It's Always Been You"
✨ Hilarious Grandmother
✨ Animal Familiars (including a highland cow!)
✨ Haywire Magic
This is an absolutely adorable witchy romantasy that is Charmed meets Pumpkin Spice Cafe. Sloane MacGregor and her sisters are summoned back to their small magical hometown of Briarhaven as her 25th birthday looms- the day when witches come into their magic. The MacGregor family has been cursed for centuries and their grandmother believes they can finally break the curse once and for all. But, the town's mayor - Knox Douglas, wants them and the magical havoc that always follows them, to leave town before their magic destroys everything in its wake. It doesn't matter that Knox has always had a crush on Sloane and that his feelings might muddle his duty to his town - the MacGregor sisters have to go.
This was a delightful read just in time for the fall season (or really any season!). This story had many laugh out loud moments as well as those that tugged on my heartstrings. The fact that the MacGregor family can't really put down any roots because of their curse made my heart hurt for them. The enemies-to-lovers relationship between Sloane and Knox was filled with banter and hijinks, and also endearing and unexpectedly spicy! The way Knox showed Sloane she is worthy of love had me swooning for him.
I also loved the magical town of Briarhaven and it's quirky group of townspeople. It's a village where magical beings are safe and free to be themselves as well as be a tourist destination. It's a town I would definitely want to visit! The magical animal familiars are also quite the side characters and I adored every one of them! There's Blue, an emberwolf - a flying dog with dragon ancestors, Haggis, a small Highland Cow with a wheelchair and the personality of a golden retriever, and Oswald, the grumpy blind tabby cat.
I absolutely can't wait to see what comes next in this series! Thank you so much to Gallery Books for the advanced copy! 🖤

It doesn't matter that Knox has always had a crush on Sloane and that his feelings might muddle his duty to his town - the MacGregor sisters have to go.
This was a delightful read just in time for the fall season (or really any season!). This story had many laugh out loud moments as well as those that tugged on my heartstrings. The fact that the MacGregor family can't really put down any roots because of their curse made my heart hurt for them. The enemies-to-lovers relationship between Sloane and Knox was filled with banter and hijinks, and also endearing and unexpectedly spicy! The way Knox showed Sloane she is worthy of love had me swooning for him.
I also loved the magical town of Briarhaven and it's quirky group of townspeople. It's a village where magical beings are safe and free to be themselves as well as be a tourist destination. It's a town I would definitely want to visit! The magical animal familiars are also quite the side characters and I adored every one of them! There's Blue, an emberwolf - a flying dog with dragon ancestors, Haggis, a small Highland Cow with a wheelchair and the personality of a golden retriever, and Oswald, the grumpy blind tabby cat.
I absolutely can't wait to see what comes next in this series! Thank you so much to Gallery Books for the advanced copy! 🖤

Story 3 stars. Narration 3 stars
The premise of a village in Scotland filled with magical beings and a family curse that drove a family of witch’s away until now is what pushed me to read this and for the most part it lived up to the premise. Having said that, I couldn’t wait to be done. I usually love stories like this, but not so much this time. To be honest, I think it was the narration that kinda ruined it for me-especially the female narrator.
There were a few things I liked, but mainly a little fire breathing dragon dog that becomes the fmc’s familiar. He was definitely the comic relief as he set small fires while dreaming and stole any cheese he could find. He was cuddly and could talk to the fmc in her mind. The mmc had two familiars that talked to him and that was fun as well. I quite like whimsical stories usually. There’s two other sisters that need to come into their magic as well as get a curse taken off them so I’m sure that’s what book 2 will be about. I don’t think I’ll be continuing the series unfortunately. Adult read.

Truly the definition of a cozy fantasy romance story.
This had you wanting to curl up in rainy weather with a cup of tea and a cat on your lap.
I loved the cozy charm of the magic and the small town. The MMC was swoon worthy and forward which I loved. Truly left no room for a miscommunication trope.
A great fluffy feel good book

Received my ARC via Goodreads giveaway and couldn’t wait to dive in! Extremely fun, humorous story providing magical elements whilst exploring the plight of the human condition. Seems like this is intended to be the first in a series and I can’t wait to see what else is in store for the majestic Scottish sisters!

Fun, witchy, and spicy. I loved the sweet emberwolf (think a dog-dragon cross). Full review to come.

Plot-This is a story about Sloane MacGregor, a witch returning to her Scottish hometown to break a family curse, and Knox Douglas, a warlock determined to protect his town from her magic.
Knox- mayor, night in shining kilt with a baby cow familiar.
Sloane-chaotic, deeply loyal witch with an ember wolf (wolf/dragon combination) familiar who loves cheese
🧙Enemies to lovers, slow burn with lots of banter
🧙The familiars and that Sloane could talk to hers. Boy did he like cheese.
🧙Sloane’s bond with her sisters and deep loyalty to family
🧙The lighthearted, magical fun
Final thoughts: Chaos, banter, chemistry, snow and magical mischief. I enjoyed this book and listening to it on audio, especially the Scottish accents. It was exactly what I look for in an enjoyable read; cozy, imaginative, romance and a great setting.

I loved this one 😍 the setting was so magical and the characters were fun! I would call this one of my potato chip books, not anything super intense story wise, but delicious nonetheless. I couldn’t put it down and I want the next book! This would be a great fall to winter transitional book if you are looking for something like that.

Would really like for my next life to be a witch in a tiny town in the Scottish highlands, thanks so much!

Starshollow but make it a witchy magical small town in Scotland. DEVOURED it in one day. From the first page I got captured into the story immediately and couldn’t put the book down. It’s cozy, romantic, emotional, funny, and fast paced. the plot perfectly executed, and characters are well written.
Tropes you’ll find in the book~
🔮 Magical small town
🔮 Grumpy x Sunshine
🔮 Spicy and beautiful romance
🔮 Close knit sisters / sisterhood
🔮 Pet familiars
🔮 Mentions of fae, elves and dragons
A perfect blend/balance of romance, magic, and coziness as the book sucks you into the magical charming Briarhaven and follow Sloane and her sisters back to their childhood hometown to try and break the centuries old curse that follows their bloodline. Getting to know Sloane’s complex character and her development, her struggles and burdens with responsibilities as the eldest sister and how she deals with them and the obstacles she faces along the way,,, and of course all while keeping it as cozy as possible with all the magic, adorable pet familiars, magical shops and festivities in town.
The love story of Sloane and Knox was everything. The chemistry between them was unmatched, their banter, witty remarks, and the TENSION!! Knox was so sweet and gentle, always taking care of her, reassuring her that she doesn’t need to carry all the responsibilities and taking the burden of her shoulders, while Sloane as stubborn and scared as she was in the beginning, she gave in to her feelings for Knox at the end. The author wrote it incredibly, building up tension and allowing their love to blossom throughout the book without it being forced or sudden.
One of the things I loved the most is the sisters’ strong bond, them standing side by side and always having each other’s backs. I got to see more of Sloane’s sisters, Lyra and Nova, different but lovely personalities, their childhood and how the traumas they faced had affected each of them differently, and how they cope with them. Also there was a small insight into Lyra’s past which I think it might be a hint for a possible second book, and that got me more hyped!
Thank you NetGalley for providing me an ARC of this amazing book🙏💕

Insta-lust with two insufferable main characters and an annoying supporting cast. The only tolerable one was the dog.
August 16, 2025
4.5 stars (rounded up)
Love’s a Witch is a cozy paranormal romantasy that blends small-town charm, witchy magic, humor, and romance. It’s the first book in Tricia O’Malley’s The Scottish Charms series and has the author's trademark warmth.
The story follows Sloane MacGregor, a young woman from a lineage of witches, who returns to her ancestral Scottish village of Briarhaven as she approaches the birthday when her magic fully manifests. The MacGregor women carry a centuries-old curse the family has to break, and Sloane’s arrival kicks off magic-adjacent mayhem. The town’s protector, Knox Douglas, a descendant of the man involved in the original feud, wants Sloane’s family gone. Meanwhile, Sloane’s unpredictable, wild magic blooms, causing further havoc in town!
The story is told from the dual POVs of protagonists Sloane and Knox, giving readers a glimpse into the uncertainties and inner workings of these very opposite characters. The writing is snappy, heartwarming, and hilarious—making it very readable and worthy of a binge-read. For all the trope lovers out there, this book features several popular ones, including enemies-to-lovers, grumpy × sunshine, small-town romance, found family, and sisterhood!
Sloane MacGregor is a likable, relatable protagonist. As the oldest sibling, she feels the weight of her family’s curse and the immense pressure from the people of Briarhaven who want her family gone. Her inner monologues are full of so much uncertainty—her magic is wild and unpredictable, changing forms on a daily basis once it blooms, and the challenge of breaking a centuries-old curse is a daunting task! The coven that she, her sisters, and grandmother are part of is an eclectic group of witches—a few of whom do not have her best interest at heart. Navigating through all of this and dealing with Knox, who makes many attempts to have her family forced out of town, is almost too much to bear, and she’s ready to throw in the towel on a few occasions!
Knox is the grumpy to Sloane’s sunshine—he’s taken over the role of protector of Briarhaven—a town where magical beings secretly come to live freely without persecution or judgement—and he wants to keep the spotlight off the town. What’s working against him is the undeniable attraction he has for Sloane, which stems back from their teenage years—but instead of flirting, bickering and banter are what transpire between them for the first half of the book. But romance fans need not worry because they evolve into lovers quickly later on, after Knox becomes determined to help break Sloane’s family curse after more and more mishaps from the curse are affecting the town! Sloane’s sisters, Lyra and Nova, and grandmother Broca, all bring a wonderful balance to the story with their animated personalities, wit, sarcasm, and supportive natures.
The magic system in this book is original and fun—interesting witch-lore, coven rules, and clan curses. The small-town Scottish setting of Briarhaven is the perfect atmospheric backdrop for this cozy witchy romance—it's a tourist-friendly, magical town with charming landmarks, including enchanted bookstores, dragon shops, and a close-knit gossipy community.
The overall pacing is brisk, as the story is very plot-driven—after the sisters are summoned to Briarhaven, their return triggers magical mishaps in the town, which accelerates their efforts to break the curse. The escalating stakes clash with the romantic tension between Sloane and Know, all leading to a dramatic resolution by the end. Most readers will be engaged throughout the entire story and will be eager to read future books in the series!
Overall, Love’s a Witch is a delightful, cozy romantasy that is full of charm, banter, and magical mishaps! Readers who love cozy witchy stories with family ties, enemies-to-lovers rom-coms, and heartwarming reads will love this book!

Love’s a Witch by Tricia O’Malley is the perfect mix of cozy, magical, and just a little bit chaotic—in the best way possible.
I simply adored this fun, quick, grumpy/sunshine romantic comedy. Briarhaven, with all its small-town charm and fairytale quality, instantly climbed to the top of my list of fictional places I want to visit. The world-building is excellent—full of spellwork, enchantment, and just the right amount of mayhem to keep things lively. It honestly felt like the kind of town you’d want to curl up in with a mug of cider and never leave.
The witch familiars completely stole the show for me. As a pet lover, I was enchanted by the way O’Malley gave them unique personalities. A cheese-obsessed emberwolf? Yes, please. I would happily read a spinoff book entirely about the familiars and their antics.
Sloane and Knox’s romance was equal parts swoony and snarky. I loved the push and pull of their enemies-to-lovers banter, especially with Knox grumbling his way into my heart while clearly falling first. Their chemistry made the story sparkle, and the balance of romance with witchy chaos was just delightful.
This book gave me all the autumn vibes—cozy, whimsical, a little mischievous—and it’s exactly the kind of story that makes you want to light a candle, wrap up in a blanket, and lean into the magic of fall.
If you’re looking for a witchy romcom that’s equal parts heartwarming and spellbinding, Love’s a Witch will absolutely cast its charm on you.

Such a unique premise- 3 sisters return to their hometown to break a centuries long curse on their family. Cursed to never be able to stay in one place longer than a year, they have thrived on change and not settling down.
What happens when something (or someone) comes along to make the eldest sister desperately want to break this curse so her family can stay put? Chaos and witchcraft is afoot while they try everything to rid themselves and break the curse.

Love!! I must know what happens with all these characters so I will be continuing this series without a doubt. My only complaint is that I felt like the romance kind of came out of left field? But the vibes were PERFECT. Just what I wanted for fall!

This book was an impulse buy because the cover and sprayed edges were gorgeous so I had no expectations but OH MY GOD it’s so good!!!! Books set in Scotland tend to either be amazing or a complete joke and this was definitely the former. It’s perfect for the season, the chemistry between the leads built up at the perfect pace, the side characters were beyond interesting, and the animals are SO CUTE.
Can’t wait for the rest of this series (also also also the way they set up the next books was clever and super smooth).
Also I need the spell to make your animals talk. I’m dying to hear what my cats are saying when they scream at 5am.
