This wasn't my favorite of the 3. I loved the leads (Bowen and Tamsyn arguing is adorable) and the storyline, but the ending was confusing and rushed. Still a great book for this in-between Halloween and Christmas season and I enjoyed reading it.

ARC kindly proved through NetGalley but all thoughts are my own.

I received this e-book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to NetGalley and the author/publisher for the copy!

Did we need a 3rd book in this series? I mean...there are several brothers so, maybe? But I think I need to stop reading these. I enjoyed the 2nd book in this series the most. Although this one was cute in some spots and still brought some magic and there was a lot of spice, I just didn't enjoy it like I really wanted to. If you have enjoyed all the books in this series, then you would probably enjoy this one too, but it just didn't cut it for me!

I absolutely adored this book! I'm kind of hoping it's the start of a series, but it's just an adorable standalone. If you take the Victorian Era romance, with all the frills and restrictions of polite society, and place it in a fantasy world where every 100 years extra terrestrial beings awaken to try and take over the world again! I was captivated.

McKenna is an 18 year old young women who lives with her family of some means, when a young professor comes to teach at her local college. Her father hires him to teach her how to better speak, since she is deaf. Robinson not only teaches her how to better speak, but he shows all of his research on the Aesir extraterrestrials to her father. Her father decides to fund his research.

McKenna and Robinson fall in love (him sooner than her), and they must fight against society's expectations and his lack of funds, and the looming their of war with the Aesirs. Robinson is also a sorcerer with the local college and in charge of defending part of the city with his magic whenever the Aesir wage an attack on the city.

I adore Jeff Wheelers world building. The complexity of it plus it's simplicity at the same time. Then he portrays these amazing heroic characters that I love to read about! I also read his Harbinger series that also enthralled me.

THE WEDDING WITCH by Erin Sterling was such a fun addition to a beloved and wholesomely spooky romance series! I loved THE EX HEX and THE KISS CURSE, but this one might be my new favorite of the three!

Erin Sterling does it again! I am absolutely in love with this series, and this was no exception. Following Bowen and Tamsyn was an absolute treat, and the spice didn’t disappoint! 😆 I am looking forward to whatever Erin/Rachel writes next!

This was a fun seasonal read that kept the lighthearted witchy vibes and spice that the previous two books in the series had. More of a 3.5 star read so I rounded up since I did have a little fun even if there wasn’t much substance-wise to it.

I enjoyed this book at its surface despite the fact that I saw all the twists coming and expected everything that happened. If you like books that won’t stress you out too much then this is the perfect little read that will take you on an enjoyable enough adventure that also brings the Christmas/Yule vibes. It’s got magic, witches, and time traveling for a plot with a mystery that ties it all together. It’s not a book you’ll take too seriously, but it’ll keep you entertained and you can’t help but love all of the characters and root for them to find their happiness!

I loved both Bowen and Tamsyn’s characters and how their differing personalities suited each other and how well they work together. Their story brings the spice and chaos that will leave you entertained and satisfied by the end. Overall a fun read for anyone who likes to read something they don’t have to take too seriously or think too much about and it fits perfectly into holiday season TBRs!

Great addition to the series! I loved this series of witchy romance stories and Tamysn might be my favorite character out of all of the books. She's confident, funny and grounded which really helps to drive the story. The grumpy/sunshine trope worked so well in this book!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Avon for the ARC.

Wonderful addition to this series!
I was interested the moment that I read that this book had time travel and took place at Yule. I loved the holiday vibes that this book has, but also that the holiday wasn’t the main focus of this book. The plot is all its own and so good!

I enjoyed Tamsyn’s character from The Ex Hex, and getting to know her was even better. She was so funny which was a nice contrast to the very serious Bowen. I loved their relationship dynamic so much and how exasperated he would become with her antics.

The time travel/mystery solving aspect of this book was so good! I truly felt their desperation at trying to get back to their time, and figuring out exactly what it was that they needed to do in order to get back at all! Their relationship was so sweet and felt sincere.

In my opinion you could read this as a stand alone. There are some spoilers for the rest of the series but they are things that could easily be guessed.

Highly recommend!

3.25🌟 - it was okay!

This has been my least favorite of the series so far! I had a harder time connecting with the book which might have been timing/mood thing which left me not as into it! This book actually has some Christmas vibes which was surprising for me! Loved the UK setting and the overall premise though.

The third title in Erin Sterling's Graves Glen/Penhallow series, The Wedding Witch was sweet, funny, thrilling with an extra dose of magic. Bowen Penhallow has retreated from the world to find a way to right past wrongs. In doing this, he hires Tamsyn Bligh, a woman with a knack for acquiring magical objects. When one particular powerful brooch bring the two to a haunted house in the wilds of Scotland, the two have to work together without crossing the boundaries of employer and employee. Full of witty banter and sexy scenes similar to the previous two entries in this series, The Wedding Witch is sure to please any reader looking for a book with romance, humor and a little (or a lot) magic.

A fun book to read as I'm gearing up for the holiday season. This was simple writing and had some points that irritated me but overall it was a fun easy read.

The Wedding Witch was ok for the third book in the series. The story was a little lacking after hitting it out of the park with book two. There is way more spice in here than plot. We know the charters so the storyline should have been much stronger.

The Wedding Witch is the perfect read to transition from spooky to festive. I’ve enjoyed all three of the books in this series, but this one is by far my favorite. I adored the dynamic between Bowen (the third and final Penhallow brother to find his happy ever after) and Tamsyn Bligh, the woman with a strict no dating employers policy, who has just signed on to exclusively work for him. The struggle to resist their mutual attraction is real😂

Things get even more interesting when the two find themselves at the same Yuletide wedding for different reasons and agree to team up. But neither expects to find themselves transported to 1957 in order to fix another instance of magic gone wrong.

I loved how cozy this romance felt and I ate up every moment. No miscommunication anxiety in the midst of a fun plot that kept me engaged. Add some super sweet appearances by characters from the previous 2 books and you have all you need for an excellent and satisfying ending. This one is not to be misse

I tore through this book in about a day! It was so quick and so fun! Time travel, and Christmas-y witches, and a haunting, all of the elements were so much fun!

Do you like when books combine two holiday seasons? I do, it gives me a Nightmare Before Christmas Vibe.

Bowen Penhallow prefers to live life alone on a mountain in Wales studying ancient magic. He ventures out to meet Tamsyn Bligh. Tamsyn is not a witch, but she does procure magical items for witches. She becomes exclusive to helping Bowen procure items. She does decide to do one last private job on her own where she will make a lot of cash. While on this job, she meets Bowen at a wedding that they are both crashing for different reasons. Will they be able to help each other with their projects? Will sparks fly?

My thoughts on this novel:
• This is the third novel in the Ex Hex series. I have enjoyed this entire series. It is a lighthearted and fun series that is great for the Halloween season. I hope this series continues!

• This novel was a steamy romance.

• I really liked the time travel elements of the story. Bowen meets his grandparents right before their wedding.

• The story got a bit slow for me in the middle, but then it picked up again and held my attention to the end.

• It was set a Christmas, so it was both a Christmas and a Halloween read.

• I loved how Bown and Tamsyn had an opposites attract story. Bowen is grumpy and Tamsyn is all sunshine. They had good banter.

• In the 1950’s storyline, the child Emerald is a hoot. She is always catching the two of them at awkward times, and she knows that they are up to something.

• I enjoyed that the author tried something different in this world to keep the story interesting.

Overall, The Wedding Witch by Erin Sterling was an enjoyable, fun story with great romance, time travel, and fun banter. It is perfect for both the Halloween and the Christmas seasons.

The Wedding With by Erin Sterling
Release Date: 10/15/25
Format: ebook
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book was a perfect read to segue between spooky season and holiday season - witches and Christmas? Yes please!!

I thought this was a super fast paced romcom and a light and easy read. I do wish the relationship between our main characters would have been a little more fleshed out/that the characters would have been developed a bit more. With that being said though, I’m not mad I read it! I thought it had a sweet ending and it moved quickly.

Would definitely recommend this to folks looking for a light and not too serious seasonal read!

Following The Ex Hex and The Kiss Curse, The Wedding Witch is a delightfully spooky read. It's charming, filled with romance, magic, and humor. It's a quick read that is fast paced and compelling.

The Wedding Witch by Erin Sterling is a charming holiday romance filled with magic, mystery, and humor. Bowen Penhallow, a brooding witch, and Tamsyn Bligh, a resourceful human, are thrown back to 1957
during a haunted Yuletide wedding, where they must navigate suspicious witches and eerie happenings to return to the present. Their chemistry is electric, and the witty banter adds fun to the suspenseful plot. While the romance could use more emotional depth, the supernatural twists and holiday charm make this a delightful and whimsical read for the season.

This one was really fun. I did not realize it was a time travel romance in addition to the witchy/fantasy element that I was expecting from the first two books. I enjoyed the cameos and visits back to the setting of the first two books and seeing those characters again - the two couples were really enjoyable to see beyond their individual stories.

This was a super quick read - I read it in less than a day - fast paced and engaging. It was easy to follow along with the two and once I understood how they were both going to end up in the same location, it was an enjoyable story. I loved the artifact hunting aspect of the FMCs character - she was a fun female lead. I also loved some of the side characters - especially Emerald. She was such a fun character and really added some additional levity to the storyline.

It took me a while to buy into the relationship between the two MCs - but I did enjoy the correspondence and banter at the beginning of the story that gave them the basis for their relationship to develop when spending time in close proximity. Of course the one-bed scenario can never disappoint! Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the ARC of this book! It was probably my favorite of the series and perfect to read heading into the holiday season.

3.5 stars.
I think I’m ready for this series to end. I’m a big Rachel Hawkins/Erin Sterling fan but I found myself somewhat bored or forced to keep reading this book. Primarily, it was the storyline that lost my interested. I love a Grumpy Sunshine trope so I was all in for bulky, sulky Bowen and sassy Tamsyn. And I appreciated the change of scenery away from Graves Glen for this duo.

Thank you NetGalley and Avon and Harper Voyager for the opportunity to read an ARC of The Wedding Witch.
