While the connection between Bowen Penhallow and Tamsyn Bligh is electric, Tamsyn knows better than to get involved with a client of her business obtaining magical items. Especially when that client is a witch. But, when a spell gone wrong sends the two half a century in the past, they must work together to find their way back home…and confront their feelings along the way.

The Penhallow brothers are back, and this time, it’s Bowen’s turn to fall in love! I’ll admit, in the preceding two books of The Ex Hex series, I wasn’t Bowen’s biggest fan. He was gruff, often to the point of being rude. In The Wedding Witch, however, Erin Sterling pulls back the curtain to show us why Bowen is the way he is. Getting into Bowen’s head allowed us to see a new side of him—in many ways, he felt like a completely different character than the man that had made cameos in the other two books, I think, because we were able to see the world through his eyes instead of seeing him simply through everyone else’s. I think many other characters, including his brothers, wrote him off as a loner and didn’t look to peel back his layers; this book showed that there is so much more to Bowen. Spunky, gregarious Tamsyn was the perfect love interest because she highlighted the parts of Bowen’s character that previously went unnoticed, such as his loyalty, capacity for love, and thoughtfulness. Watching her and Bowen stumble into love was endearing and often hilarious. The plot moved at an enjoyable pace, and I liked the time travel aspect a lot more than I thought I would, as someone who shies away from historical fiction. While this was a lighthearted read, Sterling delivered important messages related to grief, love, and fate, which was so well done. This is a great read to get you ready for Spooky Season, or save it for the Christmas holidays and celebrate Yule with the Penhallows!

I randomly picked up book one in this series because it was a BOTM pick years ago and since have continued with the series!! The problem is there is so much time between books that I forget the characters and what happened so going into the 3rd one, I had to stop many times and think who is this & why are they important. I loved the concept of this book, the time travel element was super fun and unique BUT because it took place in a different time, I didn’t get to see the Penhallow brothers together which sucked. I loved the dynamic family in books 1/2 so I missed that in this one. I also did not understand the time travel back element at all. I wish the author would’ve explained it more especially with *SPOILER ALERT* Declan coming back. I feel like that skipped right over and I wanted to understand why & what happened… Overall I do enjoy this universe and I loved the romance in this book. The spice level was perfect!! Overall I would recommend this series & now that all the Penhallow brothers are happy what’s next…. (maybe a Declan book to explain everything?¿ lol)

Fun light witchy romance? Yes please! This was a fun and flirty read and is perfect for the “witching” season in October. I love the third installment in this Erie’s but think the at it works best if you read all of them instead of jumping in on this read. Fun and flirty with a little spice and spells!

The Wedding Witch is an adorable, sassy, witchy romance with a Christmas (sorry, Yule) setting and a splash of time travel. I adored it, and would recommend to anybody looking for a wintery supernatural love story!

The Wedding Witch follows the third Penhallow brother, Bowen who was on a quest to right a wrong from his college days. His search for a solution led him to the human magical artifacts dealer - Tamsyn Bligh who he hires in an exclusive contract to procure needed magical items on the deal she only work for him. During Yule things go awry when Tamsyn decides to take one last gig that pays grotesquely and Bowen makes a promise to a friend and they end up in the same castle for Yule. It's filled with love, seasonal treats, and a bit of time travel.

This was really cute - out of the Penhallow siblings stories Bowen is definitely more my type - but this wasn't as strong of a story as the previous two. The banter was barely there - the decisions felt rushed - and while there were many facets of the story that eventually wove together by the end - it didn't feel connected. The "why" for one of the resolutions at the end was simply "who knows" and I found that frustrating. For as big of a role as it played, it was written off as "eh, dunno" and everyone moved on from that pretty quickly. I loved all the characters in this one - the little treats of previous main characters from the first two books in the series, and how everyone moved forward in life together.

The Wedding Witch is Erin Sterling's newest installment in her Graves Glen series. It follows the last Penhallow brother, Bowen, as he falls in love with his coworker/acquisitor, Tamsyn. They're at a wedding at a manor in Wales when all goes wrong and they're somehow transported back to 1957 and the wedding of Bowen's grandparents. As they try to figure out how to return to the present, Tamsyn and Bowen finally reveal the feelings they've kept hidden for each other and hope they can live a happy ever after.

I liked the other two books in this series but this one is my least favorite. I thought it'd be another fun, silly, sometimes cringy rom com but the time travel element kept taking me out of the story. Assumptions ran rampant and everyone just kinda winged it when it came to how they traveled to the past and what would work to return to the present. And when they got back to 2024, all the problems that were presented at the beginning of the book were just magically solved without any explanation! Yeah, they're witches but somehow travelling back in time, muddling around without a real plan and unfathomably returning solved everything? I know library patrons will still enjoy this so I'd recommend for readers who liked the first two Graves Glen books but otherwise wouldn't recommend.

Thank you to NetGalley and Avon and Harper Voyage publishers for this ARC in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I loved this. It was great to be back in Graves Glen (sort of?) and was such a fast paced and fun, quick read! I need more of this family though.

I think this might be my favorite book in the series, and I really hope it's not the last! There's something captivating about Bowen's broody, serious nature paired with Tamsyn's confident, carefree attitude. I'm so glad Tamsyn wasn't portrayed as the usual upbeat character—she had depth and a strong sense of independence. Also, the chemistry between them was off the charts! I would love to see more of Bowen and Tamsyn in Graves Glen. It would be such a treat to see them there together. Rating a 4 here, but it's a 4.5 for me.

This book follows Bowen, the third Penhallow brother and Tamsyn Bligh. We are first introduced to the FMC in “The Ex Hex”, so it’s exciting that she comes back. As far as Bowen, he doesn’t make many appearance in the first 2 books and we mostly know that he is a loner with a beard.

What you can find in this book:
- Time travel - One bed - Yapper-Listener - Witch- Human - Boss- Employee - Opposites Attract - Welsh Nicknames -Parent Trap

This is a very quick read and the elements I listened above are what I enjoyed of the book. The gma is that witch. Period. Shoutout to the Below the Deck mention. The actual spice in short, but thoughts are not.

I didn’t like simplicity/easiness of how it all just worked out. I also wish readers got more of their love before they traveled back in time. I think if the chapters had the POV titled would have been nice even though it’s not in first person. I didn’t absolutely love Tamysn’s inner monologue and a few thoughts felts repetitive.

I would say this book felt less spooky, despite there being ghosts, but if you celebrate Yule this is for you. I love interconnected love stories, so if you read the first 2 you gotta read about the last brother.

Thank you Avon and Harper Voyager for providing this book for review consideration via Netgalley. All opinions are my own.

a very enjoyable and quick read for the christmas season! full of tension, romance and a fun plot to follow with ghosts and magic. 3.5 stars!

This was so so cute! My first Erin Sterling book, but definitely not my last. The Christmas atmosphere was perfect and with the setting and the time travel, this was a fun, festive read! Loved the way Sterling went about it too, it definitely just felt like a romance book with magical realism rather than more of a fantasy read. The chemistry between the main characters was also palpable and I just adored this book. Thank you to Netgalley and Avon and Harper Voyager for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

In typical Erin Sterling fashion, this was a cute romance with a great atmosphere that will get you in the mood for the holidays. The romance was cute, witty, and steamy. I loved the haunted house setting and the time travel aspect. This book is like a witchy Hallmark movie (with a little bit of spice) that will leave you feeling warm and cozy.

I love this series and was so excited that she decided to do a Christmas version. The Ex Hex and The Kiss Curse have been some of my favorite fall reads and I have recommended them quite frequently on my BookTok account. I am so excited to be able to recommend The Wedding Witch for the upcoming holiday season.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Avon for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

The Wedding Witch was my first Penhallow book, and I was pleasantly surprised! I wasn’t sure how the witchy rom-com thing would play out, but it was so much fun!

Bowen Penhallow is a Welsh mountain man who also happens to be a witch. Tamsyn Bligh is an American who hunts down and sells magical items. The two enter into a business relationship, and sparks begin to fly. Coincidentally, they both end up as guests at the same wedding. Magical problems abound, they wind up being sent back in time, and they have to work together to get back to 2024. Will they succeed?

This was such a cute, quick read! I loved the characters and the setting so much. I’m also a sucker for the only one bed trope! I wish there’d been a little bit more background on the magic aspect- what kinds of powers do the witches have? How does it all work? I also thought the time travel thing was a little messy and confusing at times. This was a great rom-com and I definitely plan to go back and read the first two books!
Thank you to Avon Books and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The Wedding Witch is a fun and creative addition to the Ex Hex universe! I love a creative quirky romcom, and Erin Sterling has a talent for mixing worldbuilding with classic romcom tropes.

Time travel plot lines can easily go awry, but I think Sterling did a nice job here of focusing on the characters and using the time travel to create both comedic moments and a sense of mystery.

If I have one complaint about this book, it’s that the chemistry between the two leads feels lacking in comparison to the first two books in the series. The spice was spicing, but I wasn’t feeling the charm as deeply as with the other characters. Still the book was well written and enjoyable, and I’ll be coming back for more of this author’s work!

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an eArc for me to read and review!

The Wedding Witch is a magical, festive delight! Bowen Penhallow, the brooding loner with a talent for dark magic, and Tamsyn Bligh, the savvy human with a penchant for mischief, make for an irresistible pairing. Their banter is sharp, their chemistry sizzles, and the unexpected trip to the Yuletide past adds a thrilling layer of mystery and fun. The time travel twist brings a nostalgic charm to the story, The blend of romance, magic, and a dash of spooky vibes makes this an enchanting holiday read.
Thank you to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

Witches...check. Time travel...check. Human/ Warlock romance...check. Good banter...check. A dusting of spice...check. Paranormal-ish best mate...check.

This book was a nice cozy read. I have wanted to read something from Erin Sterling since I read a review of The Ex Hex, but my TBR pile would not allow it. This book has made me order the first 2 books in this series. It is beautifully written and moved at a good pace. When Bowen and Tamsyn meet up at a bar to make a business transaction, they seem to fall in love instantly. The two of them attend a wedding to retrieve a broach that is said to be worth one million dollars and somehow they get spelled and travel through time.

This book wasn't spooky witchy, it was more The Good Witch witchy. Short, sweet, and cozy.


Thank you Netgalley, Avon and Harper Collins Voyager Publishing, and Erin Sterling for this eARC of The Wedding Witch. I am voluntarily giving my honest review.

Sterling and the Penhallows never miss! Bowen and Tamsyn have a wonderful story and I loved learning more about the penhallow family!

I received an advance reader copy from NetGalley.

Sooooo excited for book three, brother 3 of the Ex Hex fam. Rough and gruff Bowen Penhallow has taken hermit to the extreme. He's happiest in his far-flung cottage where he can go days without seeing another soul. Until he begins working with Tamsyn Bligh. Tamsyn works to acquire magical objects (and we have seen her before). Bowen has been working with Tamsyn on a project close to his heart, helping his friend Declan who is a ghost. They come together at a country house over Yule with Tamsyn retrieving a magical object and Bowen attending a wedding. But a spell gone awry has both stuck in 1957 trying to set something right. Will they make it home for their own happily ever after?

A fast-paced book that has our MCs falling equally hard but trying to respect boundaries. One or two hot scenes when they finally give up the ghost (pun -- sorry) of their reservations. Low stakes with swoony hearts.

Erin Sterling’s The Wedding Witch is a delightful journey through magic, romance, and mystery, set against the misty allure of the Welsh countryside. The story follows the reclusive Bowen Penhallow and the resourceful Tamsyn Bligh as they navigate a Yuletide wedding and an unexpected time-travel twist that plunges them into the 1950s. Their chemistry is palpable, and Sterling’s intricate plotting and vivid world-building make this book a captivating read. I thoroughly enjoyed The Wedding Witch for its engaging blend of enchantment and romance, and it proved to be an excellent and satisfying read.

I adore the Penhallow brothers, but surly bearded Bowen is my favorite of the trio. This magical rom-com series is the perfect start to magical witchy reads this fall!! And while you’ll get added context and fun cameos from the couples in Books 1 and 2, you do not have to read them in order. I loved that this book takes place at a Welsh estate over the Yule holiday for a wedding, blending magic and the holiday season! Bowen and Tasmyn have been working together for over a year when a search for a powerful artifact has then accidentally slipping back in time. They must solve the mystery while posing as a married couple in order to return to 2024.
