Love Magic Kindle Edition

4.0 out of 5 stars 142 ratings

"The day I met Derrick while playing my violin in the park was magical. Unfortunately, magic and love together don’t always mix."

Oliver met Derrick while busking in the park, and they hit it off from the start. At first, Derrick’s “mysterious magician” vibe was intriguing, but after two botched dates, Oliver was ready to call it quits.

Fearing he lost his chance with Oliver, Derrick makes a last-ditch effort to win Oliver’s heart with a romantic Valentine’s date. But when love and magic collide, things tend to go awry. Will these two guys make it through the date unscathed?

    Oliver tries to be patient with his lover Derrick, who keeps acting mysterious about himself and his job ... but when Derrick misses an important play of Oliver's life, Oliver decides he has enough. But then Derrick orchestrates a series of attempts to win Oliver back; even with, well, not very much success ... can Oliver forgives Derrick when he finds out what Derrick's 'secret' is.

    This is the second story from Jesi Lea Ryan that I read, after enjoying Surreal Estate last year, and I found it absolutely adorable! It was pretty entertaining to read about the disastrous results, and then found out what Derrick could actually do. The only thing that I didn't fully agreed upon, probably, was Derrick's job. I can't spoil it here, but I just don't like it *pout*.

    I hope that Ryan will release new MM novel this year because, well, I liked both stories I've read.

    I received an advance copy of this book for my honest review. BUT I purchased my own copy after it was released...

    Love is rarely easy and when dates repeatedly fall through, seemingly all because of one partner there comes a point when you have to say "enough is enough" and "its just not meant to be" which is where we find Oliver and Derrick. As readers we know there is more to Derrick's cancellations and disappearances but watching Oliver discover them finally is a true treat. Magic is definitely a huge part of this novella, which you probably figured out from the title, Love's Magic, but its probably not quite what you are expecting either. This is a perfect introduction for me to the author's work and I look forward to checking out Jesi Lea Ryan's backlist and future endeavors. Love's Magic is an absolute gem of a Valentine's story but you'll love it any time of year.

    Starting with the opening line of this series, “nothing good ever came of a valentine’, Jesi Lea Ryan takes the reader along as Oliver and Derrick face those stressful and wonderful first dates. This is a great Valentine itself from the author. The story is a fun and original take on the awkward miscommunications that seem to happen in the beginning of a relationship. Plus the magic between the characters is a little more than average! Get a cup of your favorite warm beverage and snuggle in with this great little story.

    This a really sweet short romance on Valentine's day that involves uncontrolled magic, violins and a cranky twink of a man and a "Bear" of a man. Enjoyable story.

    Wouldn't it be great if this story had been a full length novel instead of a short story? Short stories are nice but they never have that long drawn out ending, complete with epilogue that I so enjoy.
    Still, the story - a romance that never really gets started because one of the pair has telekinesis problems - was written well, it was full of fun, and good dialogue. I think I'm developing a taste for this writer's words.

    So I’m reading along happily, expecting to read all about a cute couple, and bam! It’s over. I lasted me about a whole 15 minutes. I was extremely disappointed.

    D and O have a rocky start. Due to a reason that becomes fairly obvious, at least if one believes in the Paranormal. If you like someone, it is important to persevere.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 1, 2019

    This story was intriguing from the start. I wasn't sure where it was going, or even if we had a ghost love story, but soon everything became clear and I was swept into the magic of Jesi Lea Ryan's world. It was subtle but I was glad to catch onto it before Oliver did. Told from his point of view, I would probably have been in the same boat as him wondering what was going on, especially when Derrick was such a hottie!

    The story takes you on the wows of dating, and magic aside, this was a sweet tale of two guys who come together, recognising something in one another that allows them to open up and start something together.
