This was a fun, lighthearted chick lit read. Savannah has struggled enough with being taken seriously as a hypnotist and now she on thin ice with the board because of a complaint. So when her first love and heartbreaker is back in town, she does all that she can to ignore him. But it seems the universe has other plans as he shows up as a patient and now Savannah really has to be a professional. The past seems to have a strong grip on Savannah and she cannot believe how brazen Mason is being after all he did to her. How dare he act as if nothing happened? As if he didn't spread those terrible rumors that still exist today? And now he wants her to hypnotize him, just her luck! Mason is back in town, and working to prove himself as well when he goes to see the woman he has always loved in an attempt to try and save his career. But when a fire alarm interrupts this session, Mason may still be under hypnosis and Savannah has to do everything she can to make sure he is not irrational and to get him back out of this trance. This new fearless Mason only continues to agitate and annoy her but she also feels herself opening up a bit and questioning things as her friend and sister push her to hear Mason out. But history seems to repeat itself and excuses are always there, but maybe Savannah really has been the one to not be open to allowing others to explain and just maybe the truth of what happened in the past can finally come to light.

This story was so much fun!

A heartwarming, easy to read and delightful story about second chances. I read it in one sitting, a story that will leave you with a smile on your face. This is my first book from this author but it won’t be my last.

Looking for the perfect “love month” book? Check this one out! In this story we meet Savannah who is a hypnotist. Unique right? She focuses on helping people with anxieties, addiction and other issues. This job brings about a lot of people who don’t her to the point where she is having to defend the validity of her job. Insert Mason, her past love and the boy who broke her heart. She hasn’t spoken to him in 6 years and he’s back in town researching and writing on none other than Savannah and her hypnotist ways. He himself is trying to hit it big after one flopped book in his past. In order for him to do his research he must be hypnotized himself and during this session a fire alarm goes off making it impossible for Savannah to wake him up appropriately. As he wakes, she realizes quickly that he isn’t behaving in his normal way. Ethically she feels the need to follow him to keep him out of harms way. What unfolds is an adorably witty love story once their true feelings come out.

Thoughts: I loved this one! What a cute and hilarious story about an old sweetheart that never lost that loving feeling! I appreciated the cheesy one liners in this one and the pick up lines. I found myself laughing out loud which doesn’t happen often! I loved the second change love in this small town and the hypnotizing idea is one I’ve not read much about in the past. This book had the perfect amount of sweetness but delivered a dose of seriousness and humor and romance. If you’re a fan of clean funny romance grab yourself a copy of this one!

Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope so this low spice rom com was a fun read. The addition of one of the FMC also being a hypnotist was really nice.

The FMC has an identical twin sister and there is even a sister swicheroo to trick the MMC which is great!

I do hope the sister, Sierra, gets her own book!

I love The Chemistry of Love so I was excited to read Sariah Wilson’s newest book Hypnotised by Love. February is the perfect month to read mushy Rom-Com’s right? Sariah’s books always have characters with a past then she sprinkles in some drama and poof…you’ve got romance on the horizon.
Savannah works as a hypnotist, helping clients get over past traumas or move beyond addiction. So many people judge her profession and wonder if it’s even real, but Savannah has helped many clients and is proud of what she does. If only she could hypnotise herself and move on from her past hurt.
In walks Savannah’s nightmare Mason Beckett and all of the pain from her childhood resurface. Savannah and Mason were best friends, and their mothers had their futures planned out, but Mason ruined all of that when he asked her to dance and then ghosted her. Savannah was so hurt she would never give Mason the time of day to explain. Now the two are all grown up and Mason has come strolling into her office looking as handsome as she remembers, uhhh and he smells so good. Savannah has to remind herself why she hates Mason constantly, but overtime she will start to discover that she might have had it all wrong. Can Savannah just listened for once to what Mason has to say? Can Mason get the opportunity to prove himself to Savannah without screwing it up again? Maybe now is their time.

This was such a fun story to read. Savannah was relatable and felt like someone I would want to be friends with. Old hurts are hard to get over and I definitely related to that. It was interesting learning more about hypnosis. I didn't know much about it before reading this story.
I liked this quote when she was talking about expectations people have.

“Where do my defensive walls come from with regard to my job? A lot of places, probably. I know that part of it is from getting labeled in school. That when they say you’re ‘gifted and talented,’ there’s these expectations of the kind of life you’ll lead, the sort of job you’ll have. That if you’re not out in the world curing cancer, then you’re just wasting your life, even if what you’re doing makes you happy. How even when you are actually doing well, you still feel like a failure.”

Mason's and Savannah's interactions were fun and hilarious. I had to see what happened next. I like that there was definite sparks between them but still was clean. Just enough spice!
This whole story is about miscommunication, expectations, grudges and forgiveness. I think the reader can definitely relate to the characters.

I recommended this story to my friends.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the publisher. All views expressed are only my honest opinion. I also purchased a copy for myself.

Hypnotized by Love by Sariah Wilson is fun enemies to lover’s story line. We meet Savannah Sinclair, our heroine, who is a hypnotist, helping clients get past their issues, such as anxiety, addiction, etc. Savannah herself, has a lot of issues in her own life, especially being insecure and lacking self- confidence. Sierra, Savannh’s twin sister, was always trying to convince her to lighten up, but she knows her sister holds grudges forever.

Mason Beckett, Savannah’s former crush and best friend, is back in town; and she wants nothing to do with him, since she blames him for destroying her life a long time ago. Mason is determined to win her back, even if she hates him now, but he is totally infatuated with Savannah, and later he will learn that what happened years before was a miscommunication, which did not involve him.

Savannah finds herself spending time with Mason, especially after allowing her to hypnotize him as a test; and she begins to have feelings for him, but doing her best to not fall in love with him. Mason was such a great guy, very patient and totally going out of his way to prove his feelings to her. I will say, I thought Savannah was very annoying, with her grudges, and not looking for the truths. Though the banter between Mason and Savannah was very good.

I loved the relationship between Savannah and Sierra, as they were so close and Sierra was a sweetheart. I thought that Sierra came across as more mature, honest then Savannah. Even to the very end, Savannah continued to be very frustrating, being her own worst enemy, as she would sabotage anything, even if she needed to recognize the truth.

Hypnotized by Love was a heartwarming story, that was fun, fast paced, swoon, wonderful relationship with sisters, and love. I wasn’t crazy about Savannah, until the end; but I did adore Mason, and like Sierra. Hypnotized by Love was very well written by Sariah Wilson.

This was such a fun rom-com! This was my first book by Sariah Wilson and now I want to read everything she has ever wrote. I was hooked and could not put down this enemies to lovers rom-com. The flirting and banter really added to the romantic attraction and tension. It had me rooting for Savannah to Mason to come to terms and find their places in each other hearts. I really could not get enough of this light romance (making out only). If you are looking for a sweet Hallmark like romance, you need to add this to your TBR.

****Many thanks to Suzy Approved Book Tours and Sariah Wilson for my gifted eBook in turn for my honest review.

Another fabulous, funny, heart warming and uplifting romance from Sariah Wilson.
Sariah has a gift for creating well rounded, interesting characters I really enjoy spending time with.

Hypnotized By Love is a sweet, low angst romance from Sariah Wilson.

Savannah was an interesting character with a lot on her plate. She's smart, caring, and stubborn with an unwillingness to see anything but the worst about Mason, her childhood friend and crush. Her career as a hypnotherapist was unique and I liked getting to see her in action a bit at the beginning of the book.

I do wish there would have been a bit more of her at work, but I understand why the focus shifted to her learning to trust Mason again. He was so sweet and patient and swoiny, and is one of my favorite characters Sariah has written. I normally prefer dual POV, but it was fun seeing him through Savannah'd eyes as she began to understand how much he cared for her.

This was a great read and I would love to read more about Savannah's twin sister Sierra and their friend Bridget.

This was a good read - I really enjoyed this book. I'm so glad that I got the chance to read it early and will definitely be recommending it to multiple people who enjoy these types of novels. I enjoyed the characters and especially enjoyed the writing by this author. I'm excited to see what the author comes out with next as I'll definitely be reading it! Thank you to the publisher for my early copy of this book!

Sarah strikes again! The story was cute, fun, and unpredictable. This wasn't my favorite book by sariah, but what can I say, I love all of her books! She is the queen of witty humor and I truly don't know where she thinks of it. I like the real world situations that intermingled the humor, including the eating disorder by savannas sister. Mitch was likable and charming and swoonworthy. A solid escape once again, sariah remains in my top ten authors!!

This friends to potential sweethearts to enemies to lovers was actually cute and had a lot of potential! I thought the MCs were genuinely funny and cute together. However, the FMCs trust issues were doing too much. This was just one giant miscommunication from beginning to end. I abhor the miscommunication trope, so a lot of this book was frustrating instead of enjoyable for me.

I thought the FMCs job as a hypnotist was intriguing and her relationship with her sister was sweet. I did not like her best friend whatsoever and the side plot of SA was glossed over in my opinion. I would've liked some more care to have been taken with that "imbalance of power" situation.

I legitimately liked the writing style and am interested in reading more from this author in the future!

Thank you to the author and NetGalley for providing me with an arc in exchange for my honest review!

Savannah Sinclair feels things with great emotions. An incident in high school tarnished her reputation and caused her to be very distrustful of everyone, but especially Mason. When Mason, her previous best friend/high school crush turned reputation wrecker returns to town and wants to write an article about her profession of hypnotherapy she is very very skeptical and really wants nothing to do with him but she agrees as a favor to Mason's mom who is an old family friend. When a fire alarm goes off mid session Savannah is concerned that she has "broken" Mason and is forced to spend time with him to make sure he is not a danger to himself. She finds herself wanting to love him instead of hate him--but she can't trust him. Even though her twin sister Sierra, her best friend Bridget and her parents (and Mason's mom) all are rooting for them to get together. Although Savannah's overly emotional outlook on life made me want to shake her a few times I thoroughly enjoyed the book and the characters and the dynamic between Savannah and Mason. I can't wait for Sariah's next book.

The premise of this book is so unique it's hard to describe to others. I was worried it was going to be cheesy and lean into the hypnotized aspect too much and make the main characters romance see ungenuine. But that didn't happen at all. I was pleasantly surprised that this didn't happen at all. Rather the hypnosis was used as the catalyst for healing. And the romance was authentic and pure. I really liked the book and would recommend to anyone. It one of my favorites from Sariah from the last few years.

Hypnotized by Love is another excellent read by Sariah Wilson. Her fun and quirky stories always suck me in and have me fully immersed in the storyline. I will always want more about the side characters and the world around them. Savannah has a lot of issues, and while she helps others overcome their obstacles, she tends to create more barriers in her own life. Savannah lacks the self-confidence she needs and has full blinders on when it comes to her love life. Thankfully, Mason is completely infatuated with her and is willing to go through all her hoops to be with her. He is kind and patient as he waits for her to remove the murky-colored glasses that prevent her from seeing what is so obviously right in front of her. I loved Mason. He gives hope that even the most demanding women can find a man who will go through the highs and lows of life to be with them. While Savannah's twin sister had issues that she needed to overcome, Sierra came across as more mature, honest, and open-minded than Savannah, the oldest. Savannah proved frustrating at times with her inability to accept the truth and became her worst enemy by sabotaging everything with her thoughts. I found Savannah frustratingly obtuse at times, but I realized that many people in the world self-sabotage because they are scared or don't think they deserve happiness. Fortunately, in the real world and fiction, someone is always perfect for you. They balance you and help you create your best person, support system, and happiness. Hypnotized by Love is a quirky and self-reflecting romance that is a quick read.

I loved this book! The story was so interesting and fun to follow! Savannah was hurt almost beyond compare… so many misunderstandings! But Mason came and did what the BEST leading men do…figure it out! I loved it all! I was surprised, delighted and swooned like crazy throughout this book!

Thanks to NetGalley and Montlake! All opinions are my own!

I’ve always been a little bit fascinated (with a dash of scared) of hypnosis and it was a treat to read a Sariah Wilson book about just that!

Savannah and her twin sister have the best relationship, but man, that girl can hold a grudge like no other! She has some non-traditional approaches but is so careful in her craft, and there were times when I wished she was more careful in her listening skills. Mason, her former crush/best friend/now enemy, is back in town. He’s a writer and a skeptic, and also determined to set things right after all these years. And after sweeping all that aside, I found that I actually loved these characters soooo much!

Although there is a definite enemies-to-love vibe going on, the undercurrents of romantic tension and attraction were almost unbearable (in all the best ways). There was a chapter in there that I had to read several times because, phew, it was SO GOOD (iykyk 🔥)--full of chemistry and swoon that flirts with tiny sprinkles of spice.

I love a story that delivers all the sweetness, but has a bit of heart and soul to it as well, and this one found its mark. Things to love:

🔮Twin tricks
🔮SWOON
🔮Both moving back to town
🔮Mothers who are besties
🔮Crashing dates, I HATE YOU, I hate that, and denials

Content/TW: mild+ romance (make outs, kissing); talk of eating disorders; talk of inappropriate teacher/student relations

While a cute, easy to read book, I felt like the characters weren't developed as much as they needed to be. The main point of mistrust was teased out for way too long.

4 stars that should've been 5. This is such a fun, cute Rom Com. I love the writing style, the dialogue, the MMC and the side characters, the plot, the dialogue-to-inner-monologue-ratio. But I hate the big rumor that drives a huge part of the plot, and that was a huge enjoyment killer for me.

This is such a fun, fast paced, quick, and easy read. It's single, 1st POV and clean. Definitely worth your while to pick up and check out!!

Trigger warnings for a side character who was hospitalized for an eating disorder and the big rumor being a student-teacher relationship.

Thank you to the author for an ARC of this book in exchange for a review!!
