#BookReview: The Enchanted Hacienda by J.C. Cervantes @parkrowbooks






Synopsis: From the New York Times bestselling author, J.C. Cervantes, THE ENCHANTED HACIENDA introduces us to the magical Estrada family

“The warmth and humor of The Enchanted Hacienda immediately cast a spell over me.”
Katy Hays, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters

When Harlow Estrada is abruptly fired from her dream job and her boyfriend proves to be a jerk, her world turns upside down. She flees New York City to the one place she can always call home—the enchanted Hacienda Estrada.

The Estrada family farm in Mexico houses an abundance of charmed flowers cultivated by Harlow’s mother, sisters, aunt, and cousins. By harnessing the magic in these flowers, they can heal hearts, erase memories, interpret dreams—but not Harlow. So when her mother and aunt give her a special task involving the family’s magic, she panics. How can she rise to the occasion when she is magicless? But maybe it’s not magic she’s missing, but belief in herself. When she finally embraces her unique gifts and opens her heart to a handsome stranger, she discovers she’s far more powerful than she imagined.

With unforeseen twists, romance, and a heavy sprinkle of magic, The Enchanted Hacienda is a captivating coming-of-age debut exploring identity, unconditional family love, and uncovering the magic within us all.

This title will be released on May 16, 2023.

My Review: This was a wonderful coming-of-age story about love, family, and friendship.  I loved the lyrical way the story was written and how it made it come to life off the page.  I felt wicked away to a magical world to get lost in. With amazing characters and a story I could not get enough of. 











Review

“The Estrada women will bewitch your heart and make you believe in magic again. A sweeping journey from the flower fields of Mexico to the cobblestones of Montreal, The Enchanted Hacienda's most adventurous tale is the one you'll have with yourself. A beautiful reminder to be kind to ourselves as we await our time to bloom.” —Carolyn Huynh, author of GMA Pick The Fortunes of Jaded Women

“A radiant tale that satisfies the heart along with the part of us—big or small—that believes in magic. This story had me rooting for love in all its forms. I was easily charmed by the Estrada family and their dreamy hacienda filled with a rich history and woman-powered soul, a wondrous backdrop for blooming romance. This bewitching page turner is both a beauty and a delightful treat.” —
Diane Marie Brown, Author of Black Candle Women

“The warmth and humor of 
The Enchanted Hacienda immediately cast a spell over me. A novel full of heart and family, The Enchanted Hacienda crafts a charming story of family, love, legacy, and self-discovery. If I could have moved in with Harlow and the entire Estrada clan, I would have done so without hesitation. Exhibiting the rarest of alchemies, The Enchanted Hacienda is a delightful, funny, and uplifting novel with the perfect amount of heat.” —Katy Hays, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters  --This text refers to the hardcover edition.
