Step into The Enchanted Highlands for the holidays with the nationally bestselling author of Love's a Witch and A Taste of Magic, in which a Christmas wish casts a spell on the Highlands--and on two hearts. Maisie Barron is over it. A small-town girl with big dreams, she never expected that a single wish at Loren Brae's ancient standing stones would stir up so much trouble. Little does she know, the magic found there will set off a chain of events that threatens the town's beloved Christmas Book Festival. Weston Smith needs a break. Burnt out from his tenure-track professorship, he decides that a trip to Loren Brae is the perfect way to recharge his batteries. But nothing could have prepared him to find the woman he's been waiting for his whole life for. With the town's spirited book club nudging him into all sorts of schemes, Weston is determined to win Maisie's heart--even if she's feeling a bit frosty on love. When a fierce snowstorm blankets Loren Brae, Maisie and Weston find themselves drawn together in ways they never expected. And as the magic grows between them, their love may be the only thing that can save the town this Christmas.

Critical Reviews
Praise for Taste of Magic "A perfectly delicious novel that delivers on every front!"
-- Jill Shalvis, New York Times bestselling author of Simply Irresistible "I adored this slow-burn, second-chance witchy romance. Loved spending time in this cozy magickal community--meeting Lyra and her sisters who are close and witches, and also Ruth, Lyra's adorable familiar. Lyra is coming into her powers and they are a bit rocky--which adds to the fun. Especially when she runs into her first love, Rob, and her magick misfires whenever she feels attraction. Add in a reality baking show and a family curse and Lyra has her hands full. Can't wait to visit this town again for Jack and Nova's story."
