About the Book

"After losing her job as a celebrity chef and returning to her hometown, kitchen witch Sirena Caraway is desperate to get her life back on track. Growing restless and tired of being surrounded by happy endings, Sirena decides to cast one last desperate wish-to return to the life she longs for. Magician-born Gus Dearworth wants nothing to do with his past. He's ready to retire his wand, rehome his black cat, and put away his cape for good in favor of a normal, quiet life working at the local Historical Society. Gus plans to relinquish his powers on Halloween, but not before casting a final spell on his unrequited crush-the alluring Sirena. Sirena's wish is finally granted, but through a twist of holiday magic and mischief she finds herself repeating the same fateful Halloween day alongside Gus... over and over again. With their life plans upended and their feelings growing, only time will tell if Gus and Sirena can truly have everything they wished for"-- Provided by publisher.

Book Synopsis

In this spellbinding rom-com about a wish gone wrong, two opposites might just get a second chance at love, perfect for fans of New York Times bestsellers 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?
