Book Review of Don't Hex with Texas (Katie Chandler, Bk 4)

Don't Hex with Texas (Katie Chandler, Bk 4)
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


This is the fourth in Swendson's series of light fantasy romances. Katie, who is immune to magic, leaves the wizard and the job she loves in New York City and goes home to her quiet rural hometown in Texas. Her beloved Owen chose to save her rather than do his duty in a conflict with evil wizards, and she feels she must remove herself from the equation so he can fight unimpeded. But suddenly there seems to be a new wizard wreaking havoc in her little town. Katie must call her old friends in New York for assistance.
I've really enjoyed all four books in this series and am sad to see that the fifth may never see publication. I purposely bought a new copy of this title at Borders to support the author when I learned the series might be cut off prematurely. The series as a whole is good enough that I've been willing to buy them all new in trade format, though overall I'm not a fan of trade romances and don't understand the rationale behind launching a relatively unknown author in this format. It might have been more realistic in the long run to release them as mass market originals.
