Is it possible for Molly Harper to write anything I don't like? So far, it doesn't seem like it. It might not have been my favorite of her books, but it's still a lovely read and along with the first one, an excellent series that I'm greatly enjoying.

Returning to Starfall Point, it's time to find love for another of the Island's residents.
Ben has recently returned to the island with his children, to his childhood home, and Caroline has never left, owing to a family curse.
A fun found family, witch, sweet romance, just as one comes to expect from Harper.
Delightful.

A high-school-sweetheart-second-chance-romance with a magical twist! Caroline's family is cursed to never be able to leave the island, and her former boyfriend Ben returns after twenty years to go on to bigger-and-better-things, now divorced and with two teenage kids, their reunion is already awkward enough without the addition of magic and ghosts.

I love that this fun romance focused on elder millennials thriving! And it's so refreshing that Ben's teenage children were actually plot-relevant and not accessories.

The romance itself felt like it took a bit of back-seat to the overarching magic/ghost plot, but you couldn't have one without the other!

I'm definitely interested to see where the third book takes us next.

Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for providing the ARC.

This was a fun little witchy second chance romance with a bit of mystery and intrigue. Caroline is a cursed witch with the inability to leave the island she grew up on and Ben is a doctor, back after 20 years and a failed marriage, and maybe looking to rekindle a romance that he thought he had left behind.

Caroline and Ben were a mix of dorky cute and just a bit ridiculous, but in a good way. At times, things were awkward, but I enjoyed myself when reading their story. Not the best book, but it was a good start to the witchy season.
