Cozy Paranormal Small Town Apocalyptic Romantic Mystery. Holy shit, what a combination of genres we have here. This is absolutely one of those "cozy" mysteries you keep hearing about - there aren't any bodies or even any particularly dark secrets here, and the focus is more on the lighter, almost Hallmarkie, side of things. But there is active witchcraft involved in this small town... and possibly (absolutely) a few other paranormal elements, but that gets into spoiler territory. And the mystery involves an almost Buffy the Vampire Slayer type Apocalypse... but *only* for this particular small town. Yes, it may face annihilation but the world as a whole will be perfectly fine. And of course we have the requisite "Angel" type character for our more grown-up "Buffy", the dark and mysterious dude with serious connection issues yet who manages to "randomly" connect with our female lead. But hey, it all works, it all has a more relaxed yet serious vibe, there's quite a bit of humor and heart here. I mean, really... what more do you actually want? Bodies? Erotica? World wide catastrophe? Well, if you want those last three... as I've alluded to or outright said earlier in the review, this book aint that. But if you're looking for a more relaxed read by the fireplace or while the kids are at yet another practice or some such... this is a great book for that. Very much recommended.
