Perfectly Wicked

Tentative 4/5

I liked it though the second half dragged on. And I just knew that the secret would be the reason for the third act breakup and that Connor would be blamed. It was typical and I hated it. Just once can you all write romance books without a third-act breakup? If authors can't write the books without the breakup, if they can't I produce a conflict some other way than they shouldn't write. Because it's always the same thing, over and over.

Overall I enjoyed it (except for the third act breakup lol) and I'm intrigued now. I will definitely read more books in the series (because the book was set up as the introduction of the series, with Shadow Council and the like), and I want to know more about Winter (and Erikson! Cause they're gonna get together, right? Right?). Missy isn't my favourite character but hopefully I'll like her more in the next books (if they're getting written lmao).

Thank you, NetGalley and Dialogue Books for sending me the ARC.

This was a much needed, cosy and witchy read!

Perfectly Wicked introduces us to a strong female MC who takes no flack from people around her. She just wants to grow her apples and look after her family. Then we add in an attractive show maker who wants to poke his nose around the farm (and our MC) but add in sprinkles of mystery, ghosts and a jerk ex to brew up a lovable story.

I noticed some looks sparking between two of our other characters, plus with the introduced of a big bad, I'm willing to bet more to come...maybe?
