My Review:

Another fun installment of the Only Magic in the Building series. These books are all set in the same historic building, with light magical elements and a tendency to play matchmaker among its residents. 

I think the best way to go into these books is blind. The description tends to give too much away. I really enjoyed Olivia and Logan's story. Olivia has disliked Logan all their lives. They were very competitive growing up, and Olivia got tired of coming in second place. 

Now, they are adults, and Logan has moved back to town. Olivia is not happy to see him, but Logan feels they are adults and shouldn't harbor the same animosity they did when they were kids. 

This is a very heartwarming story with plenty of LOL moments. The banter is great, and the chemistry between the characters is perfect. I love the "magic" of the Serendipity. 

★★★★/5

Synopsis (Goodreads):   

When your nemesis is your next-door neighbor, falling for him is not part of the plan … but fate may have other ideas.

Olivia Pennington has spent her whole life competing with Logan Alexander—and losing. From spelling bees to science fairs, he’s always been one step ahead, snagging the trophies, titles, accolades, and now … he’s after the promotion she desperately wanted. As if that’s not bad enough, Logan also moved into the apartment she had her heart set on.

Logan’s been secretly falling in love with Olivia since the third grade. His strategy? Stay close, win her over. But, the more he foisted himself on her, the bigger mess he made. Now Logan’s back in town, and he’s determined to settle the score. He’s over his crush, so he thinks. And he just wants to bury the hatchet, preferably not by Olivia chucking it at him.

When a string of mysterious fortune cookies starts appearing, hinting at a match between Logan and Olivia, Logan’s all in. Olivia? Not so much.

But in this building, fate isn’t merely a suggestion—it’s practically written on the walls. If you thought Mr. Darcy had a hard time convincing Elizabeth of his good intentions, just wait until you watch Logan attempt to win Olivia’s heart—one stubborn, banter-filled battle at a time.

Enemies-to-lovers meets a sprinkle of magic in this laugh-out-loud, heartfelt romcom with a Pride and Prejudice vibe.
