Magic doesn't always play by the rules.
Gwyn Jones is perfectly happy with her life in Graves Glen. She's formed a powerful new coven with her family; she's running a successful witchcraft shop, Something Wicked; and she's mentoring some of the younger witches in town. As Halloween approaches, there's only one problem - Llewellyn 'Wells' Penhallow.
Wells has come to Graves Glen for two reasons: to re-establish his family's connection to the town and to make a new life for himself away from his father. But when he opens a magic shop of his own just across the street from Gwyn's, he quickly learns that going up against her won't be as easy as he thought . . . especially after an accidentally magic-inspired - and very hot - kiss.
While Gwyn and Wells are fully committed to their witchy rivalry, they soon find themselves thrown together once again to deal with the sudden appearance of a mysterious new coven and Gwyn's growing concern that something - or someone - is messing with her magic . . .

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A year after The Ex Hex topped the charts, Erin Sterling takes us back to Graves Glen, this time following the mystical pursuits of Gwyn, the much-loved cousin of the now-married Vivi, who was the star of this book’s predecessor. This time, Gwyn is carrying the drama on her own, most of which surrounds the presence of Llewellyn ‘Wells’ Penhallow, who has arrived in Graves Glen to open up his own, rival, shop right across the road from hers. Whether witchcraft and the supernatural is your thing or not, you can’t fail to be drawn in by the rivalry and chemistry between Gwyn and Wells as their relationship falters and flourishes—and it’s a truly funny book as well. Think Gilmore Girls (cosy little town) meets Sabrina the Teenage Witch (witchy, yet witty) meets You’ve Got Mail (big-time bad man arrives to charm and destroy our heroine).
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Sterling returns to small-town Graves Glen, Ga., for this amusing but oddly paced sequel to The Ex Hex. While witch Gwyn Jones's mother and cousin are away, Gwyn is left alone to manage the family magic store, mentor some younger witches, and somehow ignore how lonely she feels. Following the events of the previous volume, Gwyn's family's magic newly powers the town, making her suspicious when Wells Penhallow, the eldest son of their rival coven, returns to Graves Glen. As Wells works to build a life outside of his father's shadow, he sets up a witchy store of his own across the street from Gwyn's. The ensuing business rivalry turns abruptly steamy when the pair share a kiss under the influence of a love spell, sparking an unshakable attraction. But they've got bigger problems: there's a strange new coven of witches in town, and Gwyn and Wells must work together to untangle their motives. The story moves at a slow crawl up until the unsatisfyingly quick climax, and the plot progression is often sidelined by flirtatious banter. Still, readers who fell in love with Gwyn in the first installment will be pleased to see her again. It's not perfect, but it delivers the spooky atmosphere and sexy chemistry series fans expect.
