Your broomstick awaits... but this time, it's personal. At forty-three, Fable Pierce thought she was finally getting her second chance at forever. Instead, she comes home from a girls' trip to find her fiancé gone. No fight. No closure. Just an empty townhome, three days left on the lease, and a note so small it barely qualifies as a goodbye.
Humiliated, heartbroken, and determined not to let this be the story of her life, Fable flees north to Thornbroom Hollow, a quiet Northwoods town where her Aunt Twila runs a charming little bookstore filled with dusty spines and whispered secrets.
She expects tea, solitude, and time to rebuild.
What she finds instead is a bookstore that moves when she's not looking, shelves that rearrange themselves, books that choose their readers, and a town that has been waiting for her.
When Aunt Twila retires without warning, Fable becomes the reluctant guardian of an enchanted bookstore and the latest woman in a hidden bloodline of midlife witches.
There's just one problem.
Magic in Thornbroom Hollow is thinning.
Something in the woods is stirring.
And the bookstore didn't choose Fable by accident.
Now, with a skeptical police chief watching her every move and a legacy she never knew she carried awakening inside her, Fable must decide:
Will she run from another life that didn't turn out the way she planned? Or will she claim the power that was hers all along? Because in Thornbroom Hollow, magic doesn't wait forever. And neither does the bookstore.
If you love enchanted bookstores, small-town secrets, slow-burn romance, and magical reinvention after forty, step into Thornbroom Hollow. Perfect for fans of cozy fantasy, paranormal women's fiction, and midlife magic with heart.
