Temperance Molland doesn’t want much. Just true love. Fed up with rubbish first dates, she drunkenly dreams up the perfect love story – unaware that combining moonlight, expired rum and her witchy DNA will start all kinds of trouble…
The next day Temperance wakes up to a stinking hangover and a worse premonition: something dangerous is headed to their village. When she runs into Abel Gulliver, she can’t believe her eyes: her childhood best friend, her first love, the boy who broke her heart 12 years ago. Whatever curse she's triggered has dragged Abel back home against his will and she’s going to have to keep him there until she figures it all out.
And it’s not enough to be plagued by visions of purple lightning and burning wildflowers, now property developers are after their cosy corner of the South Coast. With her sister Suse using magic to see off the fat cats, it’s up to Temperance to keep Abel safe. If only she could work out what was so terrible about their first kiss, all those years ago, that means he can’t look her in the eye. To her, it was spellbinding…
A gorgeous and spicy romantic comedy with a witchy twist, perfect for fans of Uncharmed by Lucy Jane Wood, The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling and the movie Practical Magic.
What did I think?
It was an absolute pleasure to read Weave Your Magic and, as it's the first book in the series, I am delighted that it's not the last we will hear from the Molland sisters.
Temperence and Susie run a second-hand shop in Devon and they have a magical gift that enables them to read the memories attached to clothes. This is such a lovely idea but it also has a dark side as not all memories are happy. Temperence knows all about that because she picked up her best friend's hoodie after their teenage kiss and experienced Abel's hurtful feelings.
Abel is definitely the one that got away for Temperence and now he's back. The sexual chemistry between them sizzles off the page but Temperence knows how Abel really feels and his actions confirm that. It's a brilliant will they/won't they hook and there's certainly magic (and a dangerous curse) in the air.
I really loved this book; it's funny, magical and filled with danger. My eyes were glued to the page from start to finish and I couldn't read fast enough to find out how it would all end but I also didn't want the book to finish as I was loving it so much. What a great dilemma to have when reading!
Weave Your Magic is a fabulous magical romcom novel from Caroline Hogg. I can't wait to read more and will definitely be adding Find Your Magic to my TBR.
I received a digital ARC from the author and this is my honest and unbiased opinion.
