If the Broom Fits


Book Description

Halloween really is the worst. Blaire's got to be the only person on the planet who hates Halloween. At least the only person in her small town, which practically worships the holiday. Ugh. And it doesn't help that her super-hot ex-boyfriend, Lucas, is determined to convince her otherwise by making her take part in "festive activities." Apparently carving pumpkins and watching scary movies is going to magically change her mind about the holiday? Yeah, right. But Blaire has never told anyone the truth of why she hates Halloween or the truth about why she broke up with Lucas. She's definitely never told anyone about how much she second-guesses that decision. Being around him is so much harder than she thought, especially when it looks like he's starting to move on. And when she gets a letter in the mail from someone who broke her heart, can Blaire overcome the negativity drowning her? Or will her bitterness and secrets push everyone she loves away?
