Arleta is an ordinary human woman who unexpectedly finds herself in a baking competition that is typically dominated by elves, dwarves, and other magical creatures. While she must overcome her fear and self-doubt in order to move forward, she finds support and friendship in the most unexpected places. This fast-paced cozy fantasy has dozens of heartwarming moments and a dash of romance.

Carley Fortune is known for contemporary summer romances, and One Golden Summer cements her reputation as the authority of the genre. It's an opposites attract, slow burn romance in a perfect lake-side setting. The friendship and banter between main characters Alice and Charlie leap off the page and warms you like summer sunshine.

A disillusioned librarian and her talking plant find themselves building a new life together in this feel-good cozy fantasy. The Spellshop is a delightful story that finds new friends rallying to protect the thing they love most: each other. You'll easily fall for the darling characters and their charming community. It's a perfect weekend read! This is a warm hug of a book, so read it with a hot drink and a sweet treat.
