The Wedding Witch was the perfect October read for our book club! If you need a fun read for fall, Erin Sterling is your author.

This was fun to read! I will say the beginning felt like I started reading in the middle of a book but once I started understanding it, it was cute.

I recommend!

Thank you Netgalley and Avon and Harper Voyager for the ARC

I read this as a standalone, meaning I haven't read the first two books in the series, but I enjoyed it just the same.

Bowen and Tamsyn were attracted to each other from the get go, but developed a friendship before being thrown together in the past, which I appreciate.

That said, for two smart people, they were quite slow on the uptake as to what they had to resolve in the past.

It was a quick and pleasant book to read, especially if you enjoy witch-y or time travel vibes (which I do), so if you're looking for an easy read with a great happy ending go for it!

This is the third book in the series, centering on the middle brother, Bowen. I was excited for this release, as it perfectly captures the witchy, fall atmosphere. Overall, I enjoyed the story, particularly the intriguing treasure hunt element tied to a spell gone wrong. However, the ending felt abrupt and left me a bit confused, with some unanswered questions about how everything was ultimately resolved.

Thank you to NetGalley and Avon and Harper Voyager for an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

I had fun continuing this series and was surprised to find Tamsyn (human from book 1 who stole the trapped ghost) making a reappearance! This was a fun bridge between Halloween and Christmas, as there were witches and ghosts but it was also around the holidays. I honestly flew through this book and had a good time doing so. The time travel aspect was fun and I love Emerald as a character. I didn’t see the ending coming at all. Definitely recommend this series if you’re looking for a light paranormal romance series!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review.

so, I missed The Kiss Curse... but these books can largely be read as standalones. I will say that I enjoyed this one much more than the Ex-Hex. I thought the characters had a bit better chemistry together. The plot was also largely kept in the forefront for the entirety of the book, unlike the first in the series. My only complaint on this one is... I need more answers. How did them being sent back by a powerful ancestor to their own time fix everything? Like, I don't understand. How is that character alive? What did they actually change??

3.5 stars.

My least favorite of this series unfortunately. It felt different than the other two. I missed the small cozy town Erin Sterling created in the first two, and I wanted to return there like I have for the past few spooky seasons. I did however love the time travel aspect and if I had read this as a standalone I would’ve eaten it up, but because I didn’t go in with that thought I think I ruined the experience for myself. Still a phenomenal read, and i’m sad to see this little series end.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! This book was perfection. Perfect amount of magic, love, spice, likeable characters and interesting storyline. I kicked my feet, I swooned bc Bowen is 10/10 book husband material like 🔥🔥🔥, and I CRIED “omg this is so heartwarming and sad and happy at the same time” tears. Seeing the characters from the other books circle back made me so happy; one of which was giving CHILDFREE BY CHOICE rep! LFG!

I was not expecting this to be so good, the Ex Hex was cute and the vibes were on point but the Wedding Witch is up there as one of witchy rom-coms finest. 🖤

Stooooooppppp it was soooo good!!!! My favorite in the series!

I adore this series so much and I could not wait for this installment. It is such a fun deviation from the rest of the books and moves us into a Back to the Future timetravelig type of story that is so fun and mysterious and I could not get enough. Seriously, I could not put it down and would immediately pick it back up again to reread if I didn't have a TBR a mile long. If you've enjoyed Erin's other books, this is ABSOLUTELY one to pick up RIGHT MEOW.

This was a fantastic addition to the series. I loved these characters and thoroughly enjoyed the plot. Maybe even more than the others that have preceded it. We've married off all of the brothers, but I'm holding out hope for more.

"The Wedding Witch" by Erin Sterling is a delightful blend of romance and magical mischief that enchants from the start. The protagonist’s journey to balance love and her magical heritage is both relatable and engaging, filled with charming moments and unexpected twists. Sterling's writing sparkles with humor and warmth, creating a vivid world where wedding plans and witchcraft collide. The themes of self-acceptance and the power of love resonate beautifully, making the story both heartfelt and fun. Overall, this novel is a whimsical celebration of love that will leave readers smiling and enchanted.

Thank you so much Avon for this exciting eARC!

My favorite in the series! This was such a great conclusion to the Penhallow Brothers and their romances! It was full of hilarious moments and plenty of magic, perfect for this spooky season! Bowen has always been a very minor side character in the other two books so having him be the main character for this was so exciting! Finally learning who is behind the mountain man persona was a delight!

I love that we brought back a minor character from book one, Tamsyn Bligh, to be Bowen’s love interest! I also adored the emails and texts exchanged between them in the beginning, shining a little humor and flirtation between the two. While I really loved the journey these two take, I was left really confused how it all ended up working out? I feel like maybe I’m just a real jerk because I’m unsure how going back in time to do what they did resulted in this tightly wrapped ending? I don’t want to give away any spoilers but if you read it too, PLEASE talk to me so I can try to understand!

Overall, I flew through this book and couldn’t put it down! I wanted to know what was going to happen and really rooting for these two idiots to just kiss (again) already! The side characters were full of witty humor and the book was cute, festive, and a little spicy! The perfect book if you’re looking for a fun read or a fan of the previous books!

Perfect if you love:
-Festive reads ( Halloween pub date about magic but set in a Christmas/Yule setting)
-Coworkers to lovers
-Magical elements
-Time Travel

I couldn’t wait to pick up the third book in one of my favorite spooky series and was a little thrown off to see it was more of a Christmas read (well, actually Yuletide). Either way, the witchy vibes were perfect for an October read!! I really liked both main characters, particularly the introverted and broody Bowen. I also really enjoyed the time travel element! Overall, a fun, cozy ready perfect for a Halloween (or holiday) read!

Thank you to Avon and Harper Voyager and NetGalley for the ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!!

The The Wedding Witch is the newest book in the The Ex Hex series and I was so excited to recieve an ARC of this anticipated release!

Overall, I found this book to be a fun and fast read and I really enjoyed how easy of a read this was. I was looking for a light fluffy romance and this one really delivered. Unlike the other books in this series, this one doesn't have a super spooky/halloween atmosphere and instead set in winter with a tiny bit of holiday cheer. I personally did not mind this but it does stray from the other reads.

I overall found the romance fun and really enjoyed how the characters had feelings for each other for a while and enjoyed being in each others company. I don't think the romance was super indepth and could have used more developement, but the romance is such low stakes that I didn't mind.

The plot was also interesting and I like how they got sent back in time and had to figure out how to get back home. It was fun seeing them work together at the end and I did enjoy how everything wrapped up.

I will say ultimately this book is nothing super gut wrenching nor had me giggling or obsessed with the romance but I personally didn't mind it. Its nice to just have a fun quick read and this book truly delivered. The audiobook was also nice but the narrator really struggled with American accents lol

If you are looking for a fun holiday romance I def recommend it!

I just love this cozy little series. This one was about Bowen, grump and hermit, and Tamsyn, magical artifact hunter. Bowen hires Tamsyn to be his exclusive acquirer, but she can't resist a secret job finding a million-dollar magical broach. Her quest takes her to a wedding in Wales where Bowen also happens to be a guest. They get thrown back in time thanks to said broach, and now they have to figure out how to get back. Oh and they're both harboring feelings for each other.

I loved the dynamics between Bowen and Tamsyn, and I super enjoyed their trip back to 1957. The book is very readable, and I couldn't wait to keep going back to it-- work was getting in the way of my reading! I did feel like the ending was a little fast, and I would have appreciated hearing more about how their time traveling problems wrapped up once they got back to the future. But I definitely enjoyed this just in time for spooky season!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for my thoughts.

4.5⭐️

Loner and magical hermit, Bowen, loses his best friend to a spell gone wrong and his ghost asks him for a favor. Unable to refuse, he attends a wedding where he runs into his recently contracted magical item procurer, Tamsyn. After a major wedding mishap, Bowen and Tamsyn are sent back in time to undo the things that can be undone. Hoping to get back to their time, they need to figure out what needs to be undone- and maybe even fall in love in the process.

A perfectly witchy book for Fall, so happy to be back in the world of the Penhallows!

This was my favorite of all 3 books! I’ve never been into Werewolf man romances… but Bowen definitely works for me! This book was engaging and interesting, I was able to read it so fast and never felt bored!

Once I got past the name ‘Tamsyn’, I really fell in love with both of the main characters. Get you a man who loves you like Bowen 😭 For such a rough and tumble man, he has such a sweet and gooey heart. Also loved the one bed trope, it came in clutch at the best time!!! And Bowen’s Welsh nicknames were just the sweetest and gave me warm fuzzies every time he used them. I loved the witty banter between Bowen and Tamsyn- hilarious and clever, it never felt cringey or too much.

This book was so exciting and fun, it was such a great read. A great way to end the trilogy- though I hope this isn’t the last we’ve heard from Graves Glen!

Thank you to NetGalley, Avon and Harper Voyager for providing me with an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion!

Erin Sterling is back at it with THE WEDDING WITCH, a breezy book that blends magic and romance into an enjoyable read.

I live for these seasonal books :) We are back in Graves Glen and this is a mix I guess of a spooky and holiday book! This book follows Bowen Penhallow (a Penhallow brother) and Tamsyn (a human). Bowen is one of the Penhallow witches and Tamsyn works for him. Overall, I really enjoy this series, especially this witchy time travel magical story! My only note is the relationship did progress very quickly like 0-1000 but if you like loveable characters and a witchy spooky holiday book, try this!!

This book, like its predecessors, is like dipping into a warm bath and just letting your bones relax.

Thank you NetGalley for the early access to read this!

This was a really fun, easy to get through story. This had a plot that flowed really well and the chemistry between the two characters came across on the page. I think if you’re looking for a fun, spicy romance about magic and the holiday times then this is for you. I think this was a fun addition to this series.
