Fresh Fiction Review

Casual Hex

I've been a fan of Vicki Lewis Thompson for more years than I care to count. I eagerly await each and every one of her books. They are such a joy to read!

This book gives us the story of Gwen Dubois. Gwen lives in Big Knob in a little French cottage her father built for his family. She also owns a flower shop and is very happy but she longs for love. Lately she's been dreaming about a big blond dude who makes her hot and bothered but her heart belongs to Frenchman Marc Chevalier. She has been corresponding with Marc since she found some extremely strange and rare plants in the forest. Unbeknownst to Gwen, Dorcas and Ambrose have had a small hand in getting the ball rolling for her and Marc. They have been doing a little bit of matchmaking spell casting.

Marc can't wait to meet Gwen. He has enjoyed corresponding with her and since he has to go to a botanical conference in the United States, he decides to swing by Big Knob to see her plants, meet her and see what transpires. With a small bit of help from Dorcas and Ambrose, quite a bit transpires! Whew!

Of course no Hex book is without the incorrigible George, the dragon! Is George trying to behave now or does he have more characters to help him misbehave?

I absolutely cannot say enough good things about the Hex books. They are fun, quirky reads. My only problem is I race through each one of them because I just can't wait to see how they end. Vicki Lewis Thompson has given me many hours of reading enjoyment over the years and I'm sure she will give me many more!
