✨I enjoyed this book just as much as I thought I would! There’s something about this magical family that makes me feel honestly jealous I’m not one of them. (They’re real you can’t change my mind.)

✨This book follows Rose who is struggling to find her path now that she’s no longer Prima to be. She’s trying to find her path in life, her passion now that nothing is exactly how she thought it would end up. Which inevitably causes her to make some questionable decisions such a “rescuing”horses, and maybe even a one night stand. What could it hurt?

✨Enter Damian the half Demon veterinarian (what a combo am I right?!) Who owns the animal sanctuary Rose tries to liberate the horses from. Surprise surprise he’s the one night stand. Damian has a past and inner demon (quite literally) he’s trying to hide from.

✨Rose and Damien get thrown together when she’s forced to do community service at the animal sanctuary. Sparks continue to fly even though neither wants anything serious. Their chemistry is explosive! This book has the sisters from book one, the HILARIOUS grandmother. I can’t wait for another book!

A great follow-up to the first book in the Supernatural Singles series. I really enjoyed "Not the Witch You Wed" and was super excited when I heard the next one was coming out.

The chemistry between Damian and Rose is natural and fun. There were a few moments that seemed forced or inauthentic but, otherwise, it was a fast and engaging read. I can't wait to read the next one - hoping it's about Olly!

disclaimer: I received this book as an ARC by Netgalley. This opinion is my own and it is honest**

I gave this book a 4.5! I enjoyed the tropes (one night stand is one of my favourites) & I enjoyed the characters. Perfect to end October with a cozy read.

I loved this book. It was such a well told story and I instantly connected with the characters.

The author does a great job painting a grand picture of the world and the people in it. I would definitely recommend everyone read this one.

Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martins Publishing for this eArc for my honest opinion.

Book on no string attached relationship that was incredibly steamy between two characters named Rose and Damian. Both characters were very strong willed, which made the story interesting. The supernatural aspect of the book was spectacular. I enjoyed how the attraction between the two were intense but they kept battling it. I had never read a book by April Asher and now I want to read more of her books. It was exciting, kept me wanting more. Bonus about this book that made it even more special is the name of the animal sanctuary. It has my name Marisol which is very unusual and not common. This is the second book I have ever read that had my name used. The rescue animals setting is great.

Thank you Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for the opportunity to read this ARC!
I wasn't 100% what to expect going into this book. I do enjoy fantasy romance and I've been known to ready a "witchy/mystical" book once in a while, but I've never really looked at the romcom style ones.
However, I am happy to report that I was glad I picked this one up!
I was glad that while the book is the second in a series, it can be read as a standalone as well.
I liked the idea of Rose and Damian's one night turning into something more, then watching their "arrangement" grow into something more, then obviously one of them screws it all up. I mean... Why do we fall for these types of books over and over and over again? Oh right... Because they are awesome!
There where so many swoon worthy moments in this book that I was clutching my heart 99.9% of the time... and when Damian calls Rose "Little Witch"? Oh I was a puddle on the floor!
We got to see both characters realize who they actually are and who they could be, not only with each other, but also on their own. Rose is a straight up bad-ass who kicks butt and I love her for that. Damian is a grump who is secretly the sweetest person ever.
I fell for these two together, I lived their story. The book is well written and easily pulls you in. While it's not set to publish until February, it was the perfect ready for this halloween season! It's also a great beach read or fall camping read!

I loved this book! I know it's coming out in feb but it was the perfect addition to my Halloween reading list with the witch craft and demons. It was just the right amount of spice and drama.
Will definitely recommend!!

This book was so flipping cute! I loved the magic system, though I wish we could have seen more of it. I wish I had read the first book before starting this was, but I am so excited to go back and read it. The characters were great and the Maxwell triplets are such fun protagonists.

I really needed a romcom to break up my Halloween reading list and I couldn't have picked a better option. This was such a funny and fast read. The trope filled romance between Rose and Damian didn't disappoint. It left me hot blooded for sure.

I realized I was going to read this book out of order pretty quickly. Its the second book in the Supernatural Singles series. My reading experience wasn't hindered by this snafu. I had such fun reading this sequel that I immediately went to the library and got book #1. Can't wait for book #3.

Thank you to St. Martin’s Griffin and NetGalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Let me start out by saying how much I loved Not the Witch You Wed! And this one definitely didn’t disappoint! It hooked me from the very beginning and kept me hooked the entire time!

I really enjoyed this sequel to Not the Witch You Wed!

Not Your Ex's Hexes follows Rose Maxwell, the former Prima Apparent as she searches for her new calling after stepping down from the role. After a misguided attempt to rescue a pair of horses goes wrong, Rose is given mandatory community service at the local animal resuce working with Damian Adams - local vet, grumpy demon, and Rose's only one night stand.

I absolutely loved Damian. I'm a sucker for a grumpy bad boy, and his personality and banter with Rose were so great. I really enjoyed seeing Rose's character development and seeing her grow into herself throughout the story!

Things I loved:
•Good girl x bad boy
•Cute nicknames
•One night stand to friends with benefits
•Forced proximity

Thank you to NetGalley, St. Martins Press, and April Asher for an advanced copy of this book!

This series is VERY cute. A friend recommended the first (Not The Witch You Wed) and, upon finishing, I immediately had to request a review copy of this second installment. It’s a quick, cute read with a lovable family of witches and an eclectic group of supernaturals thriving in NYC. I will say, though, that besides the supernatural representation, this series is pretty much a straight, white depiction of characters… so if you’re looking for diversity in that regard, you won’t find it.
I like that the Maxwell sisters are very independent and headstrong. While Rose’s main love interest wants to protect and care for her, she doesn’t *need* him and I appreciate when couples are written that way.
This one is much steamier than the first and you’ll hear no complaining from me about the sexy scenes - *excellently written!*
I feel like this second book had more character development outside the supernatural community. While the first focuses on finding the next head witch and supernatural alliances, Not Your Ex’s Hexes explores the characters job/apartment hunting and quite a bit of work with an animal sanctuary, which was sweet and refreshing.
Can’t wait for the 3rd one!
Highly recommend!

This book is one of the funniest rom con’s I’ve ever read. Rose is such a relatable woman with a very strong personality and sense of humor. Her wayward ways and tenacious spirit are making for the perfect match. Once her path gets disrupted, Rose has to find her way back to who she is and who she wants to be. Taking a leap of faith, Rose gets herself into some trouble and ends up right in the unwelcoming arms of Doc Adams. Damian Adams runs a local animal sanctuary where Rose now has to do community service. Though you never doubt the duo with have their HEA, you do wonder who Rose will be and where. I loved watching Rose navigate her new path and I hope all woman can learn how powerful & resilient they are too!

I liked Vi's story a bit better as it felt there was more at stake. She had something to prove and the stakes were higher.

Rose's story felt like Rose - it doesn't quite find its groove. In this quasi enemies-to-lovers story, Rose and Damien never feel at odds with each other and the "ex's hex" didn't feel very much like an obstacle for Damien to overcome as he was already committed to being a bad boy with a shady past who doesn't like two legged animals.

Not Your Ex’s Hexes by April Asher is book #2 in the Supernatural Singles series that I feel absolutely honored to be able to review!
Not Your Ex’s Hexes is a phenomenal grumpy/sunshine-ish witch meets broody half-demon romance full of adorable animals, forced proximity & chemistry hot enough sparks were coming off the page.
The pop culture references mixed with the humor make it an absolute joy to read. There are even mentions of one of my favorite shows, Supernatural!
There’s also chapter titles, which is something I adore that I think is underutilized. They are cheeky, fun & fit perfectly with the humorous & punny writing that I love. Bonus points should be awarded also because there’s a glossary in the back of the book with both helpful & amusing definitions explaining the paranormal creatures & their ways.
The hero of this book is a swoon-worthy, animal loving veterinarian that just happens to be a broody half-demon with a giving heart & he calls her “little witch”. Insert heart eyes here. Then, the heroine is Violet’s sister from the first book, Rose, who is no longer the Prima Apparent for which she trained her whole life to be. Rose now must figure out what to do with all her new found time & what path her new life will take. Then, you add an animal rescue mission gone mistakingly wrong, a hex from one’s teenage ex along with a no strings attached situationship that fails & there’s quite a roller coaster to ride.
I was absolutely ecstatic to fall back into this delightful paranormal world with magic realism. I am happy that this story was just as fantastic as the first one. I also cannot wait to jump back in for the last triplet’s story in book three. The sisters & their closer friends have such a special bond that gives you the gooey, heartwarming feels. Then, you add in the cleverness with the humor that make for such an entertaining time. Finally, it’s action-packed in the action movie matter as well as the spicy sense to create what I think is the definition of an exceptional romance that’s perfect to escape into.
If anyone is looking for a witchy romance to get lost in & like a broody hero with an animal-saving heart of gold, humor & more, I would highly recommend checking out Not Your Ex’s Hexes & the entire series by April Asher!

Not Your Ex’s Hexes comes out February 7, 2023!

The grandest of thanks goes to April Asher, NetGalley & St. Martin’s Press for sending me a physical arc, which I voluntarily read & reviewed. All thoughts & opinions are my own.

This has a lot of tropes that many people like such as forced proximity and good girl bad boy tropes. There was one main trope that I have to say I'm not too much a fan of which is the one night stand. It is something that I did think was well written though and would likely recommend to friends. It didn't have that quality that makes books a five star for me, but it was a solid four stars.

*I received a free ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*

3.5/5 rounded to 3/5

The second book in a series can often fall short of expectations, and I am absolutely thrilled to announce that there is no second book slump going on here! In fact, I think "Not Your Ex's Hexes" may be even better than "Not The Witch You Wed". While the story jumped in right where the first book left off, it was a seamless transition and I would even argue that it could be read as a standalone. I was thrilled to get to know Rose better, and see her get her HEA with a character I would argue is totally unexpected based on what little we knew about her in book 1. Rose's character growth is also excellent. Damian was a wonderful counterpoint for her, and the grumpy/sunshine vibes were IMMACULATE.

I am so excited that the end of NYEH sets up Olive's story to be next. We've been seeing OxB hints since the beginning of book 1, and I am READY for the tension to simmer over! I appreciated that the author carried those threads through book 2, it's building the anticipation so beautifully.

I absolutely loved this one! I haven’t read the first one in the series but found this one engaging and super charming! Perfect fall, Spooky Season read!

I loved the chemistry and banter between Rose and Damian. And there were some SPICY scenes! I wish I learned more about the hex - though it didn’t distract in any way.

I can’t wait to read every other book in the series!

★ ★ ★ ★ . 5

GUYS! To say I loved every part of this book is an understatement! I should probably start by saying that I have not read the first book in the series (oops) but the world this author created drew me in nonetheless. Witches, demons, angels, shifters, and vampires! What more could a girl ask for?! Rose and Damian’s chemistry was to die for. I loved their banter (and spice) and found both characters so down to earth and relatable. I loved how passionate both of them were about animals and how incredibly kind they were to everyone they met. I found myself smiling the whole time. I fell in love with the side characters and would love to read about each of them. I would have enjoyed a little more drama between the characters and maybe a little more self discovery and background information, but I loved this one nonetheless. I genuinely flew through this book and didn’t want it to end! I definitely recommend this if you’re looking for a light witchy rom com for the season.

✨ Good girl x ‘bad’ boy
✨ Opposites attract
✨ One night stand to lovers
✨ Forced proximity
✨ Witch + half demon love

Thank you NetGalley & the author for an ARC of this book. I felt like this book transported me back to my childhood. I was obsessed with Charmed for a hot minute and loved this world of witches and the supernatural. The dynamics between the sisters were perfect, I loved how they were always in each other's corner supporting each other through everything. This book starts off with Rose, the middle sister, having a one-night stand with a demon (half-demon) and after an incident with an attempted Horse heist, she ends up having to finish community service at his vet clinic. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the premise of the hex preventing Damian from ever living his life but I think it worked out pretty well in the long run making him realize things he was shutting off. I loved the banter and the fiery relationship the two main characters had and the side characters just elevated the book. I kept finding myself drifting off and wondering which characters the next book would be about and am excited with the direction Asher is taking. Now all I have to do is read book 1!
