Minnie (Silver Springs Pets #1) by Mia Harlan


Blurb:

I'm the witch with the most capital “B" in Silver Springs. A freak that even a quirky, paranormal town won't accept. But no one actually knows the real me...

I’m taking care of a toddler, working two jobs, and barely holding on by a thread. The carefree socialite everyone sees is just an act, and things keep turning from bad to worse.

If I don't come up with a bunch of money, fast, I'll end up unalive. My mom cursed me to flirt with my boss's mate, whom I don't even like. And I have three fated mates who might end up screwing me (and not in a fun way):
-The single dad whose son I'm caring for.
-The man who broke my heart when we were kids but now wants to marry me.
-A mad scientist who's selling innocent animals as vampire food.
On top of that, I'm hiding an anxiety disorder, squatting in an abandoned building, and taking so many potions that I may have a problem.

I’m Minnie Alexander. I used to be Minerva Montgomery, owner of the bakery in town. Now I have a baker’s dozen of problems.

Minnie is a quirky, angsty, slow burn, romantic comedy set in the Silver Springs universe. There is a cliffhanger ending. Please see the Author’s Note for trigger warnings.

 

My review:

A quirky rom-com with a paranormal bent. This reads like a spin-off as the characters have a shared history that we aren’t clued in to. Minnie is a thoroughly unlikeable character that you will come to love. Her words don’t match her actions and her actions are incredibly sweet. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and am anxiously awaiting the next installment.
