Happy Paperback Book Birthday to THE ENCHANTED GREENHOUSE!

Happy paperback book birthday to THE ENCHANTED GREENHOUSE!!! My cozy fantasy set in the world of THE SPELLSHOP about a librarian who was once a statue, a grumpy gardener, magical plants, a winged cat, tiny dragons, honey cakes, hope, love, and joy is out today in paperback with gorgeous mint green sprayed edges! And it includes a sneak peek at SEA OF CHARMS, which comes out in just two weeks! I wrote this book for anyone who might need a dose of comfort, joy, and kindness. And I'm so thrilled that the paperback will soon be in the hands of its readers!

The Wednesday Witches Book Club

Surprise! I wrote a short story! It's called The Wednesday Witches Book Club, a cozy fantasy mystery that's part of the forthcoming Amazon Original Stories MAGIC & MYSTERY collection, puzzle-box mysteries from top fantasy authors, edited by John Joseph Adams. I'm honored to be part of this amazing collection, which also includes stories by Travis Baldree, Robert Jackson Bennett, Heather Fawcett, Scott Lynch, Tananarive Due, and J. M. Miro!

A book-loving witch finds magic and mystery in a whimsical short story about the transformative power of friendship and community by the New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop.

After a challenging divorce, Ashley joins a witchy book club in search of a new social life. But when members start being transformed one by one, Ashley and the remaining book club members must uncover the culprit behind these sinister spells. With time running out until she’s the next target, she turns to her grimoire for answers. Because what better way to catch a magical culprit than through stories?

The whole collection will be free for Prime and Kindle Unlimited subscribers in ebook and audio starting on pub day, July 28. Info here: www.amazon.com/magicandmystery or www.amazon.co.uk/magicandmystery
