This book made my heart grow a few sizes larger. I mean, a sweet romance plus magical realism? Yes, please!
Archer is a billionaire businessman embroiled in a scandal caused by his father’s corruption. He can’t go anywhere in NYC without being followed, either by the press or the public, and he’s finding that difficult to deal with.
So what does a billionaire do when he wants to escape scandal? In Archer’s case, he buys an apartment building, The Serendipity, in a charming city called Serendipity Springs. He doesn’t buy into the stories about how the building and the town are both magical. But he does know he can make a lot of money with some changes to the building.
And on his first night in the building, Archer gets a surprise. He finds Willa, one of the building’s residents and a talented baker, in his closet. All Willa remembers is going into her closet, and the next thing she knew, she was in Archer’s apartment. He doesn’t believe her story, though, although he can’t deny his attraction to her.
When Archer announces big changes to the building, including a rent increase and a prohibition on pets, the tenants are very unhappy. Another change could negatively impact Willa’s baking business. But despite all the havoc he’s causing, why can’t she stop thinking about him?
This really was all kinds of adorable. I loved the banter, the supporting characters, and the absolute sweetness of this book. And I’m thrilled that it’s the first of an 8-book series called Only Magic in the Building, so I have lots more time to spend in Serendipity Springs!
