A witch is back in town after exiling herself after a terrible relationship and now she’s about to make unexpected alliances, especially in the form of a beautiful witch. Emmy Harlow is a witch, but not the most powerful one, she comes from a family of witches who are considered pretty low on the power totem in their town of Thistle Grove. Her family however is in charge of the magical competition and Emmy has returned home after about 10 years of leaving behind her magic and her community to finally help with the competition and see her friends again. On her first day back she runs into her dreaded ex, the person who might have played a teeny tiny part in the reason why Emmy left in the first place, Gareth Blackmoore, a warlock from the most powerful magical family in town and known heartbreaker. After her encounter with Gareth, in which he doesn’t even recognize her, she runs into Talia Avramov, all around badass adept in the darker arts, absolutely stunning and sexy witch. Talia is fresh from a bad break up herself, and none other than from Gareth... who was coincidentally also cheating with Emmy’s own childhood best friend Lin while he was hooking up with Talia. Talia and Lin have come up with a plant o get back at Gareth and with Emmy in town, it seems like the most ideal time. What better way to get revenge from the heir of the most powerful family than by taking away his family’s winning streak in the competition? Soon Emmy finds herself getting to spend more time with Talia and getting know her. Throw in cute coffee dates, a fierce competition, family legacies, and asking yourself just where you belong. This was such a sweet and fun read, I absolutely adored the chemistry between Emmy and Talia, *fan’s self*. They just work so well together and the story was just so interesting! I can’t wait to read the second book in the series and see where the other characters go!
