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.

It was about this time last year that I picked up the first book in the Stay A Spell series and fell head over heels in love with this paranormal romance series. As I am not a binge reader I’m honestly really impressed that I have managed to get through three of the six books in the series within the past year. This is good going for me, which really should tell you all it needs to about my enjoyment of this series. I think Witches Got Stitches is my favourite of the series so far. This one was so much fun.

One thing I really enjoyed about this one was the fact that Violet is a tattoo artist and is experimenting with her magic to make enchanted tattoos for magic wielders. As a lover of tattoos, I really enjoyed this plot point. It was so interesting to see her work on what magic would help each magical creature. It definitely made this one a quicker read for me. It also helped that I already really loved the male main character from having met him in the previous books.

Once again this was a super quick read. I really enjoy listening to this series on audio, and the narrators did a fantastic job of bringing these characters to life. I love that it is a dual narration, with a separate narrator for Violet and Nico. I flew through this book, and I am really looking forward to reading more in this series. Hopefully, by this time next year I will be writing that I have completed this series. If you’re a big fan of old school paranormal romance but for a more adult audience, this series is definitely for you. It’s cute and fun, with a little hint of spice. I can’t wait to dive into the next book.
