THE MACCHIATO MAGIC

Three books into her life as Wickbrook Falls resident witch, Sage Hawthorne has learned to expect the unexpected. She was not expecting to be the one holding the whole towns future in a coffee cup.

Wickbrook Falls is turning three hundred, and tradition demands that the current Hawthorne witch brew the Macchiato Magic — the towns oldest, biggest working, the one that renews all four of its protective wards at once. Zinnia only brewed it once, a generation ago, with a lifetime of oral tradition in her ear. Sage has eight weeks, a recipe book full of her grandmothers handwriting, and a warning underlined twice: this working was never meant to be brewed alone.

As Founders Day draws closer and the ground beneath the towns oldest boundaries keeps quietly, dangerously weakening, Sage discovers the celebration everyones been planning for months is tangled up in a scheme decades in the making, one that reaches further into Wickbrook Falls history, and closer to the people she loves, than she ever expected. With Cals training on the line, Biscuit running out of patience, and a partnership requirement she doesnt yet understand standing between her and the ritual the whole town is counting on, Sage will have to trust her own hands with magic bigger than anything shes ever held.

Cozy, wickedly funny, and steeped in small-town secrets, The Macchiato Magic is the thrilling conclusion to the Wickbrook Falls series, where the coffee is strong, the wards are older than anyone realized, and love, as always, comes with a side of trouble.
