Opposites attract in this wickedly charming rom-com by Lana Harper, New York Times bestselling author of Paybacks a Witch. Wild child Isidora Avramov is a thrill chaser, adept demon summoner, anddespite the whole sexy-evil-sorceress vibealso a cuddly animal lover. When shes not designing costumes and new storylines for the Arcane Emporiums haunted house, Issa's nursing a secret, conflicted dream of ditching her familys witchy business to become an indie fashion designer in her own right. But when someone starts sabotaging the celebrations leading up to this years Beltane festival with dark, dangerous magic, a member of the rival Thorn family gets badly hurtthrowing immediate suspicion on the Avramovs. To clear the Avramov name and step up for her family when they need her the most, Issa agrees to serve as a co-investigator, helping none other than Rowan Thorn get to the bottom of things. Rowan is the very definition of lawful good, so tragically noble and by-the-book he makes Issas teeth hurt. In accordance with their families complicated history, he and Issa have been archenemies for years and have grown to heartily loathe each other. But as the unlikely duo follow a perplexing trail of clues to a stunning conclusion, Issa and Rowan discover how little they really know each other and stumble upon a maddening attraction that becomes harder to ignore by the day.

High literature these are not and yet I am living this series. This time we have an enemy to lovers story set against a family feud of sorts. I really do like the world this author has created and how there is a depth to the writing even when a little fluffy. In this I like the exploration of family and what it means to belong

My October TBR stack. From Bad to Cursed and Back in a Spell are part of the Witches of Thistle Grove series which I rated the first one, Payback‘s a Witch, 2 stars on Goodreads . I‘m not sure what possessed me to get the next 2 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ruthiella Sometimes series get better! Here‘s hoping. 🤞 3mo
mcctrish @5feet.of.fury @Ruthiella they should be quick reads one way or another 🤣 3mo
5feet.of.fury @mcctrish I liked the first one, but the others are a bit different, the 1st really focussed on the trials/contest. The follow ups are more romance. Maybe it‘ll work out! 3mo

I suppose the Thistle Grove series is really just 4 old, extended families not 1 big one, but somehow the whole town ends up feeling like one big messy family.

Eggs Brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻 4mo

The second book in Harper's Witches of Thistle Grove series did not disappoint. There are four main families of witches that feature in this series: Harlows, Blackmores, Thorns, and Avramovs. This second book features different main characters in these families than the first book. I can't wait to explore the world of Thisyle Grove in book three.

Loved this book! I might have liked it more than the 1st one but it‘s been a bit since I read the first. This one follows Isi and Rowan (from 1st book) who are enemies but need to work together to figure out who is attacking his family. It‘s a romance so there are some sexy scenes as well.

This series is so cute. This one was a little 🌶️ than I remember the first being, just a few key scenes, but I was listening while finishing & photoing these 🦇 & doing some cleaning & Im sweeping the floor & all of a sudden there‘s some 🍆 & I usually save that for the kindle 😅
But anyway, it was fun, festive, predictable but sweet.
Totally bingeable, I just started it yesterday.

Mood read—I wanted a light, witchy book. The sequel to Payback‘s a Witch, this one focuses on Isidora Avramov & Rowan Thorn. Bad things happen around Beltane, & they‘re assigned to investigate. Enemies-to-lovers, although the enemies part doesn‘t last long. Interesting plot. Good romance.

I had this one barely started at the end of #Scarathlon2022 & so I finally finished it up. 2nd in the Witches of Thistle Grove series, I enjoyed it as much as the first. Issa & Rowan were a good couple & though predictable, it was a fun & charming paranormal romance. I‘ll look out for book 3.

Really enjoyed the second installment of this series. There was a bit more lore which was great and the romance was well done and well paced

Is it possible to give this book 75 stars due to how warm and cozy I feel after finishing it? I got surly every time my job interrupted my reading this fuzzy blanket of a book. Actual surly pouts occurred.
