'You broke my heart, Rhys Penhallow. And we curse you. You and your whole stupid, hot line.'

Vivienne Jones handled the biggest break-up of her life the way that any witch would: vodka, bubble baths, and a curse on her ex.

That was nine years ago. Now Rhys Penhallow, descendant of the town's founders, breaker of hearts and still irritatingly gorgeous, is back. Rhys has returned to the quaint town of Graves Glen to recharge the ley lines and make an appearance at the annual fall festival. But when his every move results in calamity, Vivi realises that hexing her ex might not have been so harmless after all . . .

As the curse starts to affect the magic of the town, resulting in murderous wind-up toys, an outraged ghost, and a surprisingly talkative cat, Vivi and Rhys must put their personal feelings aside and work together to break the curse and save not just the town, but also Rhys's life.

This was the perfect Halloween romance. It had all the elements for spooky season, plus a fun family feud and unrequited love element, too.
My only complaint is that I wish the audiobook narrator included more of Rhys' accent - he comes off completely American, which I don't think is in the spirit of his character.
