⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
The Wedding Witch by Erin Sterling

Genre: paranormal holiday romance
Series: Graves Glen # 3
Spice Level: 3/5🌶, 1-2 explicit scenes
Setting: Wales & small, magical town in Georgia
POV: dual, 3rd person, past tense
Tropes: boss/employee, one bed, time travel, insta love

My Thoughts:
The third and final brother gets his happily ever after! While we hardly spend any time in Graves Glen, I still really enjoyed this book!

We’ve got a little haunting, a little time travel, and a touch of espionage. I found the plot to be really intriguing, but the insta-love relationship didn’t quite do it for me.

Memorable Quote: “From the moment you walked into that pub, I knew you’d be the making and the ruin of me all at once, woman.”

Thank you to the publisher for my advance copy!

I love this series and the third installment is probably my favorite. Tamsyn and Bowen are a sexy, vibrant couple that I fell in love with. I loved the time travel aspect and how the couple had to work together to figure their way out.

⭐️⭐️⭐️The Wedding Witch by Erin Sterling.

I really loved “the kiss curse” and “the ex hex” so I knew I had to read Erin Sterlings new book. This book was very adorable, but was not my favorite of the three. I do love Bowen, and enjoyed the time traveling aspect of this story. But something fell flat for me!
However, it was overall a really cute fall read.

The Wedding Witch (The Ex Hex Book 3)
Rating : ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“'From the moment you walked into that pub,' he said. 'I knew you'd be the making and the ruin of me all at once, woman.'”

------------------------------------------------

The Wedding Witch was another wonderful addition to the Ex Hex series! This book, as were the others of the series, was full of spooky season vibes yet, light, cute, fun, and a little spicy. The plot kept me interested and wanting to keep reading, but as with the others, I loved that it did not take too much brain power to follow.

I have been waiting to learn Bowen's story since book one, as he was such a mystery. While his backstory was not exactly what I expected, it certainly did not disappoint. I loved getting to know him, and I truly felt for him and the guilt he had been holding on to for so long. I loved that we got to see Tamsyn again. I was not expecting that! I was not too sure about her character in previous books, but I truly think after reading this one that I had her character pegged wrong (or maybe that was the intent). These two were full of sparks and tension from their first encounter and I was here for it! I mean, who doesn't love when the shy, reserved, broody MMC falls for the bold and fun fmc? I know I do. I loved seeing their relationship develop, the problem resolve, and the happy ending result. I only wish we would have had a little more clear resolve with the ending and resolution of the plot.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book, and I will definitely continue to pick up Erin Sterling's work when I need something light and fun to read.

Fantastic book to wrap up this series!! 10/10 would recommend this book and series to anyone who love witches and a bit of romance.

My favorite of the series! I enjoyed the plot of this one along with the romance. Tamryn was such a fun FMC. Perfect fun reading to bridge Halloween and Christmas.

If you've enjoyed the previous Graves Glen novels this one will bring you more of that delightful world. Although Tamsyn and Bowen's story mostly takes place abroad you still get the quirky setting and fun magical setting.

Tam is an acquirer of magical objects so when she takes a rouge job and ends up stuck back in time with her boss who's she's been crushing on you know they're going to cash in on the chemistry.

I do wish there was a little more holiday charm - you could really read this one any time in the winter or fall. Overall fun and quick read for this time of year.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

3.5 ⭐️

This was cute yet quirky and a good addition to the Graves Glen series. Bowen and Tamsyn were cute but I didn't connect with them like I did with the characters from the previous books. Still a quick and fun read!

Thanks Netgalley and Avon and Harper Voyager | Avon for an ARC!

Strong, fun story from the start. Witchy romance with a little mystery. The resolution makes no sense to be though. “Time travel is weird” about sums it up. I loved the banter, but felt overall some things weren’t brought to conclusion.

Definitely not my favorite of the series. I loved the first two witch books from this author and was really looking forward to a Christmas themed third book. It felt very disjointed, rushed, and chaotic.

I have read every book in this series by Erin Sterling, and the most recent doesn't disappoint. The romance is steamy, the magic/time travel is interesting and believable, and the inclusion of a love interest outside the two big magic families helps to keep this series from feeling too formulaic. My only complaint is that the romance between the two MCs felt like it came out of nowhere, with only an initial meeting and a "one year later" page and BOOM they are obsessed with and fantasizing about each other, but the rest of the story was so good that I was able to forgive that. I highly recommend this one, especially if you've already been keeping up with the other books in this series.

Thank you Avon and Harper Voyager and NetGalley for the ARC of The Wedding Witch.

3.5 rounded down to 3.

Bowen Penhollow is the third brother and the center of the 3rd The Ex Hex interconnected series. I love a series that focuses on each important person in a family or friend group. Secondary characters can make a break a book so when we get to look at everyone's story it feels like seeing a best friend again!

The Wedding Witch was a quick, cute winter read that brought Tamsyn into the picture. I have to be honest, I really don't remember her from her first appearance. But even so, her and Bowen were just adorable together. I enjoyed seeing the evolution of their relationship and what a great team they made; solving problems and getting out of sticky situations. Tamsyn's career is in antiques "acquisitions"; a fancy way of saying she finds and steals rare treasures for her clients. While I did enjoy this one, there was something about it that just didn't hit the same as the first two. I can't quite place my finger on it. Even still, it was a very fun read and a great conclusion to the series.

Is this book perfect to read for the upcoming holiday season? Yes, it is. It gives the perfect vibe to read while enjoying the shenanigans between Bowen and Tamsyn.

We finally get Bowen book, which I have been waiting for. I always love to read about a grumpy older brother falling in love because they fall harder than the others. And Bowen definitely lived up to his expectations and more.

There is only one thing that bothers me. I didn’t like the love interest, Tamsyn, as much as I thought I would. There is just something that I don’t like. It was really a struggle to enjoy her chapters or Bowen falling in love with her. She is just something that I don’t enjoy reading. I know it’s a bit harsh to say, but I just don’t like her as a love interest. Sorry.

The Wedding Witch
by Erin Sterling

This book is part of ‘The Ex Hex’ and ‘Kiss Curse’ universe! It was cute and interesting but it fell a bit flat for me compared to the other books in the series!

Thank you to NetGalley and Avon and Harper for the digital advanced readers copy!! Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

The Wedding Witch by Erin Sterling was a fun romcom with everpresent witchy elements. Loved the characters and plot points.

I haven't read the first two books in this series, and I didn't have any problem following what was going on, although there were a few things alluded to that have me very intrigued to check both those books out.

I really enjoyed Bowen and Tamsyn as our main characters. I loved the way Tamsyn talked to Bowen and was able to bring him out of his grumpy shell. It seems like she alone, besides maybe his brothers is able to bring out that side to him. Tamsyn is really funny and she had me laughing out loud.
I enjoyed the characters and the plot, we did have some slower moments here and there but they didn't last too long. Was it a bit instalovey, sure, but who wouldn't immediately fall in love with Bowen, a super handsome man, and a witch to boot? I mean it seems logical to me. I had a great time reading this from beginning to end.

I enjoyed this one. Although the first two were a little better.
I did like the concept of time travel. But I was just hoping for a little more witchy theme like in The Ex Hex.

Erin Sterling's latest Graves Glen title is sizzling. Bowen Penhallow (witch) has hired Tamsyn Bligh (human) to procure magical items for him exclusively. They meet in person on Christmas Eve and share a perfect kiss under the mistletoe before Tamsyn shakes his hand to make their deal official. No getting romantically involved with co-workers. Their friendship and work develop over the course of the year and they find themselves at the same stunning estate just before Christmas Eve. This is a lighthearted love story, but the back story for both characters is so rich and full of depth. I love Tamsyn and Bowen and hope there will be more Graves Glen titles in our future.

Many thanks to Avon and Harper Voyager and NetGalley for the advanced reader's copy in exchange for my honest review.

This was such a fun follow up book to her pervious ones. They are always lighthearted and fun with a bit of witch business. Definitely had fun!

This one felt quite a-bit different from the rest of the books in the series—the macro plot felt a bit darker and the focus on Yule just made this a different read. I felt like this one was the most overly sexual too, and some of the spicy scenes unfortunately took me a little bit out of the story because they felt abrupt. I still enjoyed myself reading this but it wasn’t as strong for me as the first two books. Thank you for an advanced reader copy & a chance to review the book.
