About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

When it comes to love, sometimes the recipe needs a little magic.


Dina is a skilled kitchen witch and café owner, serving magic-infused pastries to her loyal customers. But it’s hard not to feel something is missing when you’re cursed to hurt anyone who falls for you.
Scott is a museum curator, recently back in London after a brutal breakup 2 years ago, and looking to make up for all the time he missed. He’s determined to be perfect best man at his best friend’s upcoming wedding, but his plans take an expected turn when he meets the bewitching maid of honour.
After a weekend in the countryside full of peculiar hedge mazes, palm readings by candlelight, and a midnight Halloween ritual, there’s no denying the chemistry between them. But there’s just one problem: the hex still holds, and Dina knows that Scott is in danger.
Can Dina break the spell before it breaks both their hearts?
Perfect for fans of Talia Hibbert and The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches, Best Hex Ever is a cosy, and spicy spellbinding fantasy romance from an exciting new debut voice.

‘A cottagecore romcom of magical proportions.’ Lana Ferguson, The Nanny
‘Pure magic’ Jenna Levine, My Roommate is a Vampire
‘A fabulous, very sexy novel.’ Kate Johnson, Hex and the City

Audio review
This book got off to a good start with a meet cute in the protagonist's bakery/cafe, there was chemistry over coffee. Everything from there was coincidence or was it hexing? I liked Dina initally and her friends and family. It was a cosy world.

BUT, from there, the foot was on the accelerator and insta love ensued. These two did have that inital spark but I would have enjoyed a slower and more realistic build so much more than what we got. I also would have liked more tension and effort to find their way to one another.

I was left feeling a bit unsatisfied and I didn't enjoy the descriptions of intimacy. I know this was a debut, so I'd give the author another go because there was a finesse to the writing itself, just the plotting and characterisation didn't work for me.

Narration-wise, this was dual POV with dual narration. Good narrator choices.

Great start but things ebbed

cosy, fun, unique enough to stand out from the usual witchy rom coms. would definitely recommend, especially as an audiobook.

brilliant narration
