Deja Brew

De: Celestine Martin

Narrado por: Marissa Hampton, Christopher Hampton

In this spellbinding rom-com about a wish gone wrong, two opposites might just get a second chance at love—perfect for fans of Payback's a Witch and The Ex Hex.

Ex-celebrity chef Sirena Caraway has had the wackiest October ever. Her cooking powers are on the fritz, she failed to land a career-saving job, and she embarrassed herself at the town’s Halloween party. Just before midnight, she makes a desperate wish for a second chance to fix her life. The next morning Sirena wakes up and realizes that she’s repeating the entire pumpkin spice-flavored month. Even sweeter, she runs into Gus Dearworth, whose magic leaves her spellbound.

A former reality star, Gus moved to Freya Grove to rebuild his reputation and heal his broken heart, but his restless magic is tempting him to return to the spotlight. And his secret crush on Sirena is making him want to try something dangerous like fall in love again. When Sirena realizes he can help her fix her powers, Gus makes her a deal. If she’ll help decipher a mysterious cookbook in his collection, he'll help get her magical groove back.

Every encounter offers a new adventure—from tasting menus, harvest mazes, and a growing attraction that’s taking on an irresistible enchantment of its own. But as the month winds down and the wish grows stronger, Sirena and Gus have a decision to make.

Will their second chance be their happy-ever-after ending or a bittersweet memory?

Seasonal Rom-Com

This book was a cute read for the Halloween through Christmas season. Two magical individuals, Gus and Serena, play an October do over game where both end up growing in life and love. Serena is a career driven workaholic and kitchen witch. Gus is an ex “jerk” (self proclaimed) magician, but currently a sweet and nerdy man working at a historical society. Gus is very patient and understanding with Serena, who continuously pushes him aside in terms of a relationship, simply focusing on the sexual aspects of the affair. I like Gus’ character but wish Serena had been more receptive to romance. Eventually, she starts to give in to the possibility of an actual relationship, but not till the very of the story. Overall, it was a decent fall rom com, but nothing that is really going to leave a lasting memory.
