The Hex series is Vicki Lewis Thompson’s venture into paranormal romance, set in the small town of Big Knob, Indiana. The twist is that the town’s mayor and his wife are witches whose spells have a tendency to go wrong, creating magical chaos that complicates the romantic lives of everyone around them. Over Hexed, the first book, sets up the premise, and subsequent entries like Wild & Hexy and Casual Hex expand the cast and the magical mishaps.
Thompson brings the same comedic sensibility to paranormal romance that she applies to her contemporary cowboy books. The magic in these stories is played for laughs as often as for wonder, and the romantic pairings are built on the same foundation of banter and physical attraction that drives her non-magical work. The series ran for eight books and gave Thompson room to play with genre conventions she does not usually touch.
