WHAT IF LOVE IS THE BEST MAGIC OF ALL?
‘One of my coziest reads of the year’ EMILY HENRY, on The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches
An enchanting novel about a witch who has a second chance to get her magic – and her life – back on track, from the author of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches.
Sera Swan was once one of the most powerful witches in Britain. Then she resurrected her great-aunt, lost most of her magic, befriended a semi-villainous talking fox, and was exiled from her magical Guild.
Now she runs an inn in Lancashire, where she deals with her quirky guests’ shenanigans, tries to keep the fox in check, and longs for the magical future she lost.
Until she discovers an old spellbook that could hold the secret to restoring her power – and turns to Luke Larsen, brilliant historian and human glacier. Luke has his own reasons for staying at the inn, and none of them involve letting certain grumpy innkeepers past his icy walls. So no one is more surprised than he when he not only agrees to help, but also finds himself thawing.
And as Luke and Sera work together to decipher the book, Sera starts to realise that love – and the family she’s made – could be the best magic of all . . .
