A cursed witch finds herself stranded in a small town with a sentient cottage, pocket‑size dragons, and a glowering, handsome tavern owner in this spellbinding and cozy reimagining of Pride and Prejudice.
Elspeth Moonflower just wants to use a spell. Unfortunately, that’s impossible since every witch in her family has been cursed to marry before gaining their magic. As a result, Elspeth and her three sisters are outcasts, always on the move, running their traveling apothecary shop, while their mother complains that her daughters are all magicless spinsters.
When they find themselves stranded in the charming village of Thistlegrove, Elspeth’s older sister meets a handsome suitor who becomes smitten with her. If only his best friend weren’t completely insufferable. Draven Darkstone is broody, arrogant, and wealthy—the exact kind of man Elspeth would never marry. But for the sake of her sister's happiness, she’ll be nice.
Which is hard when all Draven does is glare at her. It’s even harder when the glowering turns to searing glances. It’s downright impossible when he kisses her.
Little does Elspeth know, the line between love and hate just got thinner.
