Synopsis:
Aspiring author, Nate Wilson wants some space from his overbearing family and a job he doesn’t like. A week on the Oregon coast sounds like paradise and just what he needs to get the creative juices flowing. Unfortunately, his plans are derailed when a storm moves in and a ghostly figure flashes in his headlights, sending him skidding off the road and into a tree. Lucky for him, he ends up in front of a Bed and Breakfast, and the beautiful owner may do more to spur his creativity than any beach could.
Hesitant witch and inn owner, Haylee Clark is cursed. Well, not her exactly—at least not yet—but all of the women in her family have suffered the same fate. They fell in love, only to have that passion turn sour and their husbands die tragically, leaving them brokenhearted. So far, Haylee has done well to avoid that destiny, but when the captivating Nate Wilson crashes into her life, he awakens something within her that she never thought to feel.
When the pair stumbles upon a hidden room where Haylee’s grandmother used to conduct her rituals, they unknowingly unleash a dark entity hell-bent on destruction, and discover that a family heirloom is the source of the Clark family curse. Despite the spell, they can’t deny their attraction, and give in to the magic between them. But the closer Haylee and Nate get, the more the curse tries to tear them apart. If they don’t find a way to defeat the evil, they may lose more than their hearts.

My Review
I loved this series opener! The prologue introduces us to Con, the gargoyle who has the curse. But the chapters give us Haylee and Nate, who have their own curse to deal with, relating to his, while finding themselves and love together.
Haylee can't love, every man anyone the women in her family love die! So she keeps to herself. She's sweet and smart and runs a very cool B&B. But when Nate crashes into life, she finds something she never could have before. Belief, acceptance, and love worth fighting for. Nate is smart as well as charming and he's the perfect match for Haylee. I loved them together.
The writing is fantastic! While it's not a huge novel, it's not super short either. And I love that the author is going to tie in multiple people to this curse all dating back forever. The magical aspects and the ghosts and the witchiness was so much fun to discover! Overall, I loved this one and I'm so glad I signed up to read it! I can't wait for the next installment!! I'm totally intrigued with what can happen next :) 5 PAWS!!
