About this ebook

Seeking a little excitement in life can sometimes lead to trouble.

At 37-years-old, life is good but not great. It’s missing a little spark, so it’s high time I do something to rectify that.

A move across the country to the town my grandparents called home is exactly what I’ve been missing. I’ll embrace my magic, reopen their shop, and hope I don’t get run out of a town.

The good people of Snowton Heights believe the Wayward curse has returned with a vengeance. That might be true, but before I can find out for sure, I have another problem that needs my attention. A dead body on my front doorstep could derail my quest for a new life.

Ratings and reviews

I feel that this was a style that harked back to the fifties, or even earlier. It would have been quite at home, serialised in a women's magazine. Now I don't mean this as an insult; it's a perfectly pleasant story but definitely not about to set the world alight! Seriously, it's a way of passing an hour or so without taxing the brain too much & that's about it. Would I read another one? In all honesty, no. But you never know - I might!

what a great story. loved the characters and could actually smell the sweet treats. the only issue I had, was with the many linguistic errors. a suggestion would be to have someone read the story before you publish, just to rid it of grammatical issues.

Love the change pace from a busy city to a sleepy cozy suburb. The emotions and power of suggestion all culminate in this cozy mystery. It makes you all warm and fuzzy inside without the terror.
