What happens when a witch and a witch-hunter want to get married?
They find out that they have been lying to each other their entire relationship, but that is only the beginning.

Plot:
Alongside the main characters we uncover an entire hidden history between the witches and witch-hunters. We also discover that each side has created their own personal narrative to further their agendas. This is all interwoven with the story of Griffin and Savvy's love and how they got to a wedding.

Characters:
Savvy is a spy who fights evil and strips items of their magical power when necessary. She is also a powerful witch. Griffin is a witch-hunter.
I felt that their personalities were somewhat underdeveloped. I don't know what their hobbies, likes, dislikes, and
The side characters were really interesting and individualized. They added so much intrigue to the story, especially Savvy's friends and their interrogations.
Overall:
It was a quick read and fun story. Definitely a good choice if you want a witchy summer read!

Thank you NetGalley for an ARC of this book!

Labelled as a Mr. and Mrs. Smith, retelling, this witchy version I did a lot of fun and magic to make it a page turning read!

With witches being all the rage right now, I wasn’t sure if we were just going to get a simple retelling with a little magic thrown in, but this love story was so much more!

Told through current narrative and flashbacks, the reader gets a Romeo and Juliet, cursed romance story from the time that it falls apart (present) and they need to find a way to not only make it work, but save the world(!!), while at the same time detailing how they came together through flashbacks legitimizing the mystery of how a witch and a witch Hunter fell in love!

I love this opposites attract, us against the world romance. Full of great secondary characters and friends, the story was an absolute treat to watch unfold.

This book was definitely not your average witch!

Thanks to SMP Romance for my review copy. Opinions are my own.

I may have been just a bit generous with my 5 star review but Mr and Mrs Witch brought me so much joy and laughter that I just can't help myself.

What do you get when a Witch and a Witch Hunter fall in love and keep their identities a secret until they are accidentally revealed at the wedding ceremony? A love story for the ages with a ton of action and humor!

Loved the families and friends of both the MC's, they made all the difference in this humorous rom-com.

Secret identities in a Mr. & Mrs. Smith vibes book. If you love witches, or witchy books, give this a shot. I wanted to read it for that reason, but it’s very insta-love heavy, which is a trope I am not fond of. Nothing really stood out to make me love it though.

First off, thank you to #Netgalley for arc of this book. Although romance/supernatural isn’t my go to genre, I found I was really enjoying this! The two main characters had great chemistry and I was laughing at certain parts. I am glad I branched out and gave this one a try. Definitely looking at more books by this author. I enjoyed her writing.

This was laugh-out-loud funny. While battling each other and trying to save the world, things became fascinating. A spicy scenes make it a bit more provocative. I highly recommend it.

I love books about witches. And own probably a ridiculous number of them. So of course I had to grab Mr. & Mrs. Witch, a recent addition to the world of witchy reads. Delightfully quirky, funny and at times steamy, this book featured a cast of super adorable characters, lots of action and quite a bit of entertainment. Though it was quite a departure from the usual stories of magic and witches, I enjoyed it nevertheless.

Savannah Wilde and Griffin Carter have an unforgettable wedding day - in the worst way possible. Though very much in love, Savannah and Griffin kept something important from each other - she is an extremely powerful witch with an organization called C.R.O.N.E and he is a witch hunter for a rival group called H.U.N.T.E.R. Tasked with eliminating each other (permanently) the pair also finds themselves a target of an outsourced hit by an unknown entity.

It was impossible not to root for Savannah and Griffin. The title felt like a nod to Mr. & Mrs. Smith with a magical twist. Though some of the world building felt a bit unclear at times, the charming love story, interesting characters and flashbacks to how Savannah and Griffin met kept me so entertained that I didn't mind so much. There were quite a bit of humour and my favorite part of all - a fascinating group of animal familiars. This one is for fans of witchy fiction but also for those who love their love with a side of magic and action.

A big thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for gifting me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

Savannah is a witch, but her fiancé, Griffin, doesn’t know that she is one. Savvy doesn’t know that Griffin is a witch hunter, sworn to hate witches. When they discover each others secrets, and find out that their leaders are up to something sketchy, Savvy and Griffin need to sort out if they will work together or against each other.

This was a fun, action-packed, magical book. The pace was steady throughout and the banter was enjoyable. There was a decent amount of spice if you like that in a romance book. I think the magical system could have been a bit more developed, but since this book was primarily romance I understand why it wasn’t so clearly “spelled” out. Overall, it was an enjoyable book.

Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Overall 3.75 stars; Would've been a 4 if the steamy scenes were written better.

I enjoyed the book but was a little disappointed with the romantic scenes as they seemed hastily written and just okay. I'd enjoy another book that focuses on Diego and Brie and maybe there's something brewing there? I liked the twist about Circe and the Butcher, but I saw it coming very early on, so it wasn't a big surprise.

I really wanted to enjoy this witchy rom-com, but by page 30 or so I was upset at the lack of depth with the two main protagonists. The plot was good, but the lack of connection I had to them, and their relationship, made this one of my most painful reads of recent memory. I really wish I could have enjoyed this book given its twist-on-a-classic-romcom-trope premise, but everything aside from the plot was painfully bland.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

One of my favorite movies is Mr. & Mrs. Smith so I went into this with high expectations. What really caught my eye was that there was a supernatural twist to this story. I honestly had a fun time reading this book! I loved Savanah and Griffins banter and they were hilarious. Griffin is a secret H.U.N.T.E.R agent passing as a cute and nerdy professor while Savanah is a powerful witch working for C.R.O.N.E. They fall in love but are from two different worlds and both hold big secrets that could ruin their relationship. I loved the almost forbidden romance aspect about this book and the ending was cute. Super cute PNR read!

I am not quite sure what to think about Mr. and Mrs. Witch. The characters insta love is a bit much but is expected. The one issues readers might find is the bouncing between the past and the present. It takes the readers out of the main story. Yes, it gives some background at the same time it is directing.
The characters are cute and enjoyable and at best it is perfect for a beach read.
Thank you to Netgalley for a copy of Mr. & Mrs., Witch.

If you love the movie Mr. & Mrs. Smith or if you love Gwenda Bond’s other books as much I do, you definitely need to give this one a try. It’s a paranormal romance between Savannah who is a C.R.O.N.E. (Covert Responses Occult Nightmares) operative and Griffin who is a H.U.N.T.E.R. (Humans Undertaking Nocturnal Terror and Evil Reduction) operative. They fall in love with each other without knowing the other’s identity and make it all the way down the aisle before all hell breaks loose. Don’t worry that’s not a spoiler!

This book is so much fun! Gwenda Bond gives us a sweet romance between a witch and a hunter and once they realize the identity of the other, their love becomes forbidden. I loved that even when they were supposed to hate each other, you could see their chemistry. On top of their romance, my favorite part of the book had to be the supporting cast. The side characters were all so charming and gave both Griffin and Savannah a support system when they needed one. We even get to see some crumbs for a potential other couple who I really hope will get their own book.

The only reason this wasn’t a 5 star book for me was because Griffin and Savvy’s cluelessness was a bit frustrating at times. Probably because we got to see their inner monologues so certain things were predictable to us when the characters still didn’t know for themselves. Overall, this book was a fast paced and fun read filled with action, romance, and some fun side characters.

Thank you so much to the publisher for my copy of this book.
Told in both perspectives of Savvy and Griffin, this is a fun premise of Bewitched meets Mr and Mrs Smith.
Unfortunately I had to DNF this one. I read the first 6-7 chapters and it just wasn’t holding my attention as much as I hoped.

I can definitely see the appeal a fun book like this would bring and I know many other readers will love it.

What can I say about this book, it seriously gave me Mr. and Mrs. Smith vibe if that had been paranormal and I loved it.

Imagine finding out you don't know the most important thing about the most important person in your life and then having to come to terms with so much betrayal that it makes you want to shake up the entire world.

Through finding Savy's familiar, Griffin builds a secret room in the basement and thinks they know everything about each other only to realize at the alter... literally that all important alter, that neither of them knows the truth about each other or the past that has formed them.

This story unfolds and embraces the reader with a range of emotions that will have you crying one moment and laughing the next, all while rooting for love to win.

Thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for providing a digital copy of this book.  I have voluntarily read and reviewed it and all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Very light and cute! Perfect for the fall season to get you in the mood. Will read more from author and looking forward to it!

🧙‍♀️BOOK REVIEW🧙‍♀️

Mr. and Mrs. Witch - Glenda Bond
Rating: 5/5 ⭐️

“Savannah Wilde is a witch, a very powerful one—an identity that only her fellow witches know. Following a whirlwind romance that surprised herself and her family, Savvy is all set to marry the love of her life. But she isn’t the only one with a secret that needs to be kept, even from her soon-to-be husband.

Griffin Carter is a top agent for a clandestine organization that, well, used to primarily hunt witches, but now mainly tries to shut down supernatural threats their own way. He can’t wait to lay his eyes on the woman he’s about to spend the rest of his life with.

As Savvy walks down the aisle to Griffin, the wedding quickly goes from blessed day to shit show when their true identities are revealed. To say there’s bad blood between their factions is putting it mildly. Savvy and Griffin are tasked to take the other out, but when they discover a secret that could take down both of their agencies, they realize the only way to survive is to team up. With assassins hot on their trail, will Savvy and Griffin make it out alive to try again at ‘I do’?”

Ok. Maybe I’m just a sucker for a witchy romance but damn, I loved this book! It had all my favorite elements - romance, rivalry, action! I enjoyed the flashback chapters watching Savvy and Griffin’s relationship grow and definitely enjoyed how they worked together to overcome their differences. The familiars were one of my favorite parts - imagine the cutest animals, who can mask as house pets, with their own fun personalities!

Recommend if you like:
- Witchy romance
- Witty banter
- One night stand turned lover turned mortal enemy turned lover again
- Plot driven
- The cutest familiars
- Friendship and community

This book is ✨out now! ✨

Mr. and Mrs. Witch was a really quick and fun paranormal read! I really enjoyed the play on the Mr and Mrs. Smith angle but with witches and witch hunters. Griffin and Savvy had a really fun love story and I definitely liked watching it play out. Now if we could get a Brie and Diego book that would be amazing.

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for providing me with an arc for an honest review.

Thank you Netgalley, Gwenda Bond, and St. Martians Press for gifting me a copy of Mr. & Mrs. Witch in return for my honest opinion.

4/5 stars

Savy and Griffen have fallen in love and at their wedding secrets are uncovered, that threaten their lives. Both are part of secret organizations that are tasked with tracking down and eliminating the others kind. Savy is a witch and Griffen is part of an organization that hunts them down. The only way for them both to survive is to hunt the other down or join up together to kill the assassins sent to kill them.

When I first read this book's blurb, my first thought was that this sounds like Mr. and Mrs. Smith! I loved that movie and I was happy that the book didn't disappoint. I loved the supernatural aspect of the retelling and throwing in some romance and it was an enjoyable read. I loved the chemistry between the characters and the witty dialogue was a bonus. I read it in one sitting and it was a fun action-pack read. If you like fantasy romances then this is the book for you.

A magical version of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Lots of action, love, laughs and misunderstandings leading to chaos. Overall, it's an enjoyable and quick read.
