In this irresistible novel, Sarah Addison Allen, author of
the New York Times bestselling debut, Garden
Spells, tells the tale of a young woman whose
family secrets—and secret passions—are about to change her
life forever.
Josey Cirrini is sure of three things:
winter is her favorite season, she’s a sorry excuse for a
Southern belle, and sweets are best eaten in the privacy of
her closet. For while Josey has settled into an uneventful
life in her mother’s house, her one consolation is the
stockpile of sugary treats and paperback romances she
escapes to each night…. Until she finds her closet harboring
Della Lee Baker, a local waitress who is one part
nemesis—and two parts fairy godmother. With Della Lee’s
tough love, Josey’s narrow existence quickly expands. She
even bonds with Chloe Finley, a young woman who is hounded
by books that inexplicably appear when she needs them—and
who has a close connection to Josey’s longtime crush. Soon
Josey is living in a world where the color red has startling
powers, and passion can make eggs fry in their cartons. And
that’s just for starters.
Brimming with warmth, wit,
and a sprinkling of magic, here is a spellbinding tale of
friendship, love—and the enchanting possibilities of every
new day.
