Fix It Witches #3
e-ARC, NetGalley
Author: Ann Aguirre
Leanne Vanderpol is a badass witch. With two failed marriages behind her, she decided that love is not for her and her career will come first. She decides to run for city council but it’s a “boy’s group” and she’ll have to get a more palatable image to have a shot at winning.
Trevor Montgomery was “the man” in high school and college until… he wasn’t. Too many parties, the wrong woman, and everything went to hell. Now he lives a mediocre life in his parents’ basement, doing odd jobs here and there and taking all sorts of crap from his family. When he attends a party with his friend Titus, he can’t believe when the stunning redhead point blank asks him if he will be her third husband. She’s joking, it’s her “line”, but whaddya know? After a hot hot hookup at the party, he may end up being that…
This is the third book in the Fix It Witches series and it overlaps a bit with book 2. It’s a standalone but I strongly suggest reading the other two to enjoy this adorable book fully.
I love how badass Leanne is and how she lives her life without caring for anyone’s opinion. She’s confident, assertive and I love it! Trevor is THE cinnamon roll hero! You want to hug him and bake him cookies. It’s clear that he’s been battling an undiagnosed depression for the longest time and his family couldn’t care less. I love how Leanne sees his worth as a person and as a partner even before she falls for him.
Yes, there is miscommunication but it’s par for the course in marriage of convenience stories when each character “catches feelings” when they know they agreed not to.
I love the witchy part of the book too. They finally addressed something that bothered me immensely in the previous books as it deals with trusting your partner. And I love that it was Leanne who “fixed it” and how badass she was in doing it.
We saw a bit of Danica, Titus, Clem and I want more! I hope we get more stories about the St. Claire witches.
Possible triggers: toxic relationships with family; depression; feelings of inadequacy and very low self-esteem
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
