Magic is dying in Wales, choked by Offa’s Dyke, the enemy earthwork splitting the land.
The Hedgewitch of Foxhall
Romantasy · Teen + Young Adult
Our take
Magic is dying in Wales, choked by Offa’s Dyke, the enemy earthwork splitting the land. Prince Taliesin seeks its end for power; Prince Dafydd, for fear of the throne. But it’s Ffion, a hedgewitch scarred by a coven’s greed, who holds the key. In a journey fraught with rivalry and peril, Wales’ fate—and her heart—hang in the balance.

About the book
Magic is fading from Wales—choked off by King Offa’s Dyke, the enemy earthworks that spans the entire border. Even the dragons have disappeared. And now an attack is imminent.
Prince Taliesin would love to watch magic die. Prince Dafydd fears it, and the throne. But when their father promises the crown to whichever son can destroy the dyke and restore magic to Wales, the brothers are forced into an uneasy rivalry.
Ffion works hedgewitch magic for poor folk, not princes. Unlike the power-hungry Foxhall coven, she uses only what nature can spare. But when the coven’s greed costs Ffion everything, she will need power beyond her wildest dreams to get back what she’s lost.
So when Prince Taliesin arrives, begrudgingly seeking a witch’s aid, Ffion agrees to help him—even if it means walking from one end of Wales to the other with the most useless peacock she’s ever clapped eyes on. Even if it means striking a bargain with Dafydd behind Tal’s back. The fate of Wales depends on their quest . . . and so might the fate of Ffion’s heart.

About the book
When life goes sideways, embracing the adventure is the fastest way to set things right.
One day I was just a widow facing the prospect of an empty nest, living a life that was anything but enchanted. The next, I had discovered my magical roots, and my rightful place as the Guardian of the portal between the Faery and Earth. There was shock. And there was fear. After all, no one plans to start over at forty-five.
I intended to grow old with my husband. I thought we’d live an ordinary life. So I’ll be damned if I’m going to waste this opportunity to live in a world I always thought was imaginary. I’m half-witch, half-faery, and facing dangers as real as the ache in my bad knee. Ibuprofen and caffeine keep me going, and I could do this for the rest of my life.
Whoever thinks my family home is an easy mark better take notice: the new Guardian in town isn’t going down without a fight. After all, she’s already learned to let go of her simple existence and believe in the extraordinary power inside of her. What could possibly stop her now?

Our take
An Editors’ pick for Best Romance, Small Town, Big Magic follows Emerson Wilde, a bookstore owner who discovers she is a witch after an attack exposes St. Cyprian’s hidden magic. As evil threatens the town, Emerson must master her powers and confront feelings for Jacob North, with a 4.0-star rating from more than 1,600 Amazon reviewers.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Emerson Wilde has built the life of her dreams. Youngest Chamber of Commerce president in St. Cyprian history, successful indie bookstore owner, and lucky enough to have her best friends as found family? Done.
But when Emerson is attacked by creatures that shouldn’t be real, and kills them with what can only be called magic, Emerson finds that the past decade of her life has been…a lie. St. Cyprian isn't your average Midwestern river town—it’s a haven for witches. When Emerson failed a power test years ago, she was stripped of her magical memories. Turns out, Emerson’s friends are all witches.
And so is she.
That's not all, though: evil is lurking in the charming streets of St. Cyprian. Emerson will need to learn to control what’s inside of her, remember her magic, and deal with old, complicated feelings for her childhood friend--cranky-yet-gorgeous local farmer Jacob North—to defeat an enemy that hides in the rivers and shadows of everything she loves.
Even before she had magic, Emerson would have done anything for St. Cyprian, but now she’ll have to risk not just her livelihood…but her life.

A vow of justice becomes something far more dangerous when a young assassin starts to question the order that shaped her.

Choose your retailer
About the book
An order of magical-knife wielding female assassins brings both peace and chaos to their post-apocalyptic world in this bewitching blend of science fiction and epic fantasy—the first entry in a debut duology that displays the inventiveness of the works of Sarah Beth Durst and Marie Lu.
Kyra is the youngest Markswoman in the Order of Kali, one of a handful of sisterhoods of highly trained elite warriors. Armed with blades whose metal is imbued with magic and guided by a strict code of conduct, the Orders are sworn to keep the peace and protect the people of Asiana. Kyra has pledged to do so—yet she secretly harbors a fierce desire to avenge her murdered family.
When Tamsyn, the powerful and dangerous Mistress of Mental Arts, assumes control of the Order, Kyra is forced on the run. She is certain that Tamsyn committed murder in a twisted bid for power, but she has no proof.
Kyra escapes through one of the strange Transport Hubs that are the remnants of Asiana’s long-lost past and finds herself in the unforgiving wilderness of a desert that is home to the Order of Khur, the only Order composed of men. Among them is Rustan, a disillusioned Marksman whose skill with a blade is unmatched. He understands the desperation of Kyra’s quest to prove Tamsyn’s guilt, and as the two grow closer, training daily on the windswept dunes of Khur, both begin to question their commitment to their Orders. But what they don’t yet realize is that the line between justice and vengeance is thin . . . as thin as the blade of a knife.

The kingdom teeters on the edge of turmoil, and Talia stands between order and chaos. If she falters, she may doom the very realm she’s sworn to protect.
Is she ready to wield her power or be consumed by it?

About the book
Talia never asked for destiny, but it found her anyway.
When the mystical Companion Rolan chooses her, Talia goes from unwanted village girl to trainee Herald of Valdemar. Her days of dreaming about adventures are replaced with rigorous training, court politics, and a psychic bond with a sentient, horse-like creature who clearly knows more than he’s letting on.
But even as Talia begins to master her gifts, shadows creep through the kingdom. Treason stirs in quiet corners. Assassins lurk behind polished smiles. And the Queen’s heir—just a child—is in grave danger.
Now, Talia must navigate a web of magical conspiracies and deadly secrets with only her instincts and a few half-formed psychic abilities. One wrong move could cost the kingdom everything.
Can one runaway girl become the realm’s only hope?
