Review Card & Book Review – The Ex Effect By Jo Watson

They had a night to remember. For all the wrong reasons.

Thirteen years ago, Ash was planning the night of her life with her high-school boyfriend, Logan. They were madly in love, wild about each other, and had been waiting patiently for this moment. It was going to be perfect.

That is, until it went down in very unsexy flames. Logan disappeared and Ash was left, quite frankly – and very inconveniently – sexually cursed.

After years of disastrous dating and even more disastrous sex, cinematographer Ash has almost given up. But some seriously flirtatious emails with location agent Maximillian Adam, to set up a scouting trip, offer her hope. Because if rumor is to be believed, Maximillian Adam might just be God’s sexual gift to women.

Is Max going to be the one to finally break the curse? And, even better, break it over and over again?

Or when Ash and Max finally come face to face, will they both get so much more than they bargained for?

Filled with humor, romance, and stunning travel scenes, this is a heartfelt second-chance love story.

About The Author

My Review

Laila, a dedicated clinical scientist, has spent years prioritizing work and family over romance. Concerned for her, her best friends stage a “love intervention,” planning a three-week trip where she reconnects with three past loves—Austin, Edoardo, and Mateo.

From California to Costa Rica, Laila faces old emotions, rekindled passion, and long-buried guilt. As she navigates second chances and self-discovery, she realizes she’s been holding herself back. The novel balances romance, grief, and personal growth, with well-placed flashbacks linking past and present.

While Laila evolves, the male characters feel less developed, but this remains her journey. A fun, heartfelt read with engaging travel and emotional depth, it leaves readers eager for more.
