Publisher's summary

Gwendolyn Goode lives a charmed life.

As owner of an occult shop in downtown Salem, Massachusetts, she's accustomed to all things odd and otherworldly. But when a bloody animal sacrifice is left as a warning outside her place of business, the police seem to think Gwen might be the target of some truly evil-doers. Suddenly, her sunny existence is riddled with danger in the form of crazed pagans, rogue employees, and nefarious henchmen. There's only one man who can protect her until the storm passes...

Graham Graves has no time for witchy nonsense.

Not in his love life and definitely not in his line of work. Despite the ever-present oddities of his hometown, the private investigator and acclaimed police consultant prides himself on staying objective in every case that comes across his desk. That all changes when Gwendolyn—a woman who gets under his skin like no other—finds herself in the crosshairs of dangerous criminals. Graham is determined to make her safe, even if her presence tests his steely resolve. As their mutual dislike sizzles into unexpected attraction… he becomes even more determined to make her something else: His.

Bad Luck Charm is a total standalone romance featuring cameos from a fortune-telling parrot, a modern-day pirate, and a coven of well-meaning octogenarians. With characters that leap out of the book and plenty of spooky twists and turns to keep you guessing. Fans of Johnson's previous Boston Love Story series will adore this blend of heat, humor, and suspense.

Love this story

Never heard of this author before this book showed up on an Bookbud email. Really enjoyed the book and loved that it had an HEA ending. Now I’m off to listen to the second book in the series.

Charming, and steamy!

The story was cute, if a bit predictable. But I was disappointed in the audio quality. The narrator did a fine job, but whoever edited the audio left many half-clipped breaths that I found tremendously distracting.

Love This Author

Great story that keeps you intrigued to the end. The friendships, the characters, the love story, the danger and mystery all draw you in and keep you guessing and wishing you lived in Salem too and wanting to know more about the characters. Next book in the series is not in audible so I will be reading it on my kindle

Bewitched

I read the physical copy of this book first before listening to the audiobook. And I love the book with my whole heart. It is one of my favorite romance reads. It's funny and charming and mysterious and sexy and witchy of course. The banter between the two of them was great and it was just so sexy and the spice was great.

But, I will admit that I am a little dissapointed in the audiobook. Don't get me wrong, the narrator does a good job, but I really feel that this book and the romance would have benefited really well from dual narration. I just think it would have addedd to it so much and made it incredible.

DNF

I couldn’t get through this audiobook.. I was interested in the storyline and figuring out who was behind everything, but the main characters make it unbearable.

The love interest is a potential rapist

I was so in love with this book until I met the love interest in this book, who quickly emerged as a stalker with some attempted rape for good measure. He does not know how to take no for an answer and it is not sexy, it is decidedly creepy. I could not finish the book.
