About this listen

He's a no-nonsense businessman. She's a free-spirited baker. But the magical building they live in seems to think they're a perfect match…

When billionaire Archer Gaines needs to escape his father's corrupt shadow and a related scandal, he purchases The Serendipity, a historic apartment building far from New York City.

He believes in bottom lines and big business deals, definitely not in the local folklore surrounding the town of Serendipity Springs. So he's eager to move forward with plans to flip the building into luxury lofts.

But The Serendipity doesn't particularly care what Archer believes, and the building has plans of its own.

Willa never believed in the rumors about her "magical" building. But that was before she walked into her closet looking for a sweater and found herself in another apartment altogether—in the penthouse closet of the grumpy and unfortunately attractive new building owner.

This is less of a meet-cute than a meet-ugly, and things only go downhill from there.

When Archer announces sweeping changes that include a rent increase, he becomes public enemy number one for the residents. And by charging Willa for use of the commercial kitchen, he puts her fledgling baking business at risk.

With his progress being (magically) blocked at every turn, Archer grows desperate for help.

But the bewitching woman he found hiding in his closet seems to present both the answer and a larger problem: because Archer never planned to fall in love or stay in Serendipity Springs forever…

The Serendipity is a standalone book in the Only Magic in the Building series. These closed-door, whimsical romance books are all set in the same historic building, which has a habit of playing matchmaker with its residents. There are light magical elements, but no spells, shifters, or dark magic of any kind.

I’ve given up on lots of books recently, really very disappointed by lots of really hyped up books that turned out to be absolute garbage….
This book however had no reviews at all……….
I was not disappointed, it’s a lovely cosy, comfortable book, I finished it in two days, I wasn’t once bored.
I bought more from the authors before I’d even finished.
The narrators were both really good too, I’d definitely look out for them as narrators in future.
Definitely worth a listen if you want anxiety free, cosy romance with a tiny touch of magic, a nicely written book with nice believable characters.

Enjoyed this a lot and bought more from the series
