Witches Get Stitches
by Juliette Cross
Series: Stay a Spell, #3
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Release Date: July 20, 2021
Violet Savoie has a plan. A dream, rather. To open her own tattoo shop, which caters to supernaturals in need of permanent charms. As a powerful Seer, she has the potent magic to cast every kind of spell. Except the kind to give werewolves control over their beastly side. And her business partner Nico needs help in the worst kind of way.
Nico Cruz has a secret. A motive, rather. To subtly stalk and seduce Violet until she finally recognizes they are fated to be together. Ever since their heated encounter in Austin on New Year’s Eve two years earlier, he’s been dying to get his hands—and his tongue—back on her body. He knows a woman like Violet can’t be courted in the usual way. Luckily, Nico has no scruples about misbehaving to get what he wants.
But when his former pack roams into town, and an old friend is far too interested in Violet, his focus shifts to the threat venturing into his territory. Nico may come across as the quiet, broody one, but the intruders are about to regret stepping foot in New Orleans. And when Violet goes missing, no charm or spell can keep Nico’s wolf at bay.
Quirky and fun, filled with heat and intensity, Juliette Cross has delivered a story that has everything I love in a paranormal romance!
With the continual bantering that had me laughing out loud and the off the charts chemistry that steamed up the pages, Violet and Nico have quickly become one of my favorite couples. And even though it takes Violet a bit to realize that Nico is “the one” that she has been waiting for, the end result was so worth it. Nico was so intense, but also had such a soft side to him that I loved seeing. Violet was always quick with the sarcasm or deflection to keep things light, but watching her stand up for what was right and taking action to right some very old wrongs made her character so endearing. The chemistry between these two was off the charts (refer to the supply closet scene!), but there were also many tender moments as well.
I am in love with this world that Juliette Cross has created. The world she has built and the lore that surrounds it is so interesting and has some unique elements that I can’t wait to learn more about. The in-your-face Savoie family is so much fun and I love how they not only support each other, but never fail to call each other out on their BS when needed. Fred the bow-tie wearing rooster is a favorite, as are all the interesting animals that surround the Savoies.
This is the third book in the series and can easily be read as a standalone, but I do think there would be more enjoyment by starting the series from the beginning to get to know all the characters. The writing style really worked for me and I loved the banter and dialogue between the characters.
I am just loving this series and would highly recommend it to anyone!
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book I received from NetGalley.
