A cute supernatural rom-com. It is the first book in the series about a large family of ancient, magic wielding warlocks who move to a large estate in a small town. It doesn't take long for things to get interesting.

Great cast of characters and an interesting plot. Only complaint is the book felt a little rough around the edges. Like it needed need just a tad more umph. I plan on reading the rest of the series. ( )

Allow a full day for this first book in Michelle Pillow's MacGregor Warlock series. I, as usual, am reading the series out of order and truly commend NOT doing that but rather reading them in order as it is easier to follow the full story arc that way. This contemporary adult paranormal small town fantasy should not be read in public as guffaws tend to ensue.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. ( )

Our Review, by LITERAL ADDICTION's Pack Alpha - Chelle:
*Copy gifted in exchange for an honest review

Love Potions was a fun, witty, supernaturally charged Paranormal Romance with just enough intrigue to keep you guessing.

I'm a longtime fan of Michelle Pillow, and when I saw that she had the debut novel of a new series coming out I was super excited. Plus, you can't go wrong with hot men in kilts, right!? :)

Erik is part of a large long-standing Highland Warlock clan. They're looking for a new home base and find that in the midwest. What Erik (and his entire Clan) aren't prepared for, is that they have a neighbor who is utterly unwilling to move and who immediately puts Erik off of his game, and who is already embroiled in some lurking evil that even she is not aware of.

Love Potions made me laugh out loud in more than one place. The entire MacGregor clan loves to do nothing more than play magical tricks on one another. While it's all a bit immature, they ARE an immortal clan of siblings and cousins who live together throughout time, all the time. I think I'd find new and interesting ways to hex my family, as well.

The leading couple, like all of Michelle's heroes and heroines, have plenty of steamy on-page action, and while their path to their HEA wasn't an easy one, it was full of relief for the reader when they got there and super fun every step of the way.

I cannot wait to see which of the MacGregors Michelle writes about next in the WARLOCKS MACGREGOR series. I have a feeling that every book of this series will be engaging, romantic, and full of light-hearted fun.

If you enjoy your paranormal romances filled with magic, mayhem and plenty of wit, then this book will most definitely be a good one for you to try! ( )

LOVE POTIONS was a great introduction to a new series full of magic, love and mischief (and I can't forget the sexy Scottish Men).

I enjoyed Lydia. She is a bit of a loner but she is just plain likable. Erik is all alpha male, hardheaded and all. Lydia and Erik made a nice couple. Sparks fly instantly and their romance is a bit fast and furious but they definitely butt heads at times and there are many moments where you think it just might be over for good.

I enjoyed the mix of the modern world with the hints of the old. The supporting characters were just as important in the story as the main characters. The whole MacGregor family was a ball of fun. I really felt like I was got to know a little bit about everyone that was introduced. They all love each other but their pranks and bantering is highly entertaining. It was really fun meeting them and I am excited to learn more about them.

With the amount of family members in the MacGregor family, I have no doubt that we will be entertained with romances for many books to come.
