There’s no such thing as witches…right? Emerson Wilde has built the life of her dreams. Youngest Chamber of Commerce president in St. Cyprian history, successful indie bookstore owner, and lucky enough to have her best friends as found family? Done. But when Emerson is attacked by creatures that shouldn’t be real, and kills them with what can only be called magic, Emerson finds that the past decade of her life has been…a lie. St. Cyprian isn't your average Midwestern river town—it’s a haven for witches. When Emerson failed a power test years ago, she was stripped of her magical memories. Turns out, Emerson’s friends are all witches. And so is she. That's not all, though: evil is lurking in the charming streets of St. Cyprian. Emerson will need to learn to control what’s inside of her, remember her magic, and deal with old, complicated feelings for her childhood friend--cranky-yet-gorgeous local farmer Jacob North—to defeat an enemy that hides in the rivers and shadows of everything she loves. Even before she had magic, Emerson would have done anything for St. Cyprian, but now she’ll have to risk not just her livelihood…but her life.

A fun read if you can ignore how annoying the main character is at times.
I picked this up on a whim to read while traveling. It has some very fun elements–the quaint town, a unique system of magic, and very sweet romance.
[Slight spoiler!] I was, however, rather frustrated by the ending–perhaps this is meant to be the first in a series, which is fine; but the way the two main plot lines were intersecting, I really wasn't expecting one to be resolved while the other was left open. Plus, there's some cool characters we only see a fragment of!
