USA Today, Sunday Times, and Indie bestselling author Rebecca Thorne brings the Tomes & Tea series to a delightful, cozy close for our beloved lesbian book- and tea- sellers. Reyna and Kianthe have no trouble ruling the Queendom, battling evil alchemists, and rescuing adorable baby dragons, but can they save their town from the ravening influx of.... tourists?!? On the night of her kidnapping, all Reyna wanted was a relaxing cup of tea. She didn’t expect to be dropped in a hidden cell, but what the hells. She’s flexible. When Kianthe “rescues” her wife, she expects they’ll be back at New Leaf having tea by noon. But there’s a problem: an alchemy circle marred Reyna’s cell. What does a radical group of alchemists want with the Queendom’s newest sovereign… and why did they think they could get away with this? To make matters worse, Kianthe and Reyna’s hometown is having its own problems. Word of New Leaf Tomes and Tea―and its celebrity owners―has finally spread, and tourists are flooding into Tawney. As their friends struggle with the sudden influx, Kianthe and Reyna have to face a bigger conundrum than rogue alchemists: the fact that closing their bookshop might be the only way to save their town. Things can’t just be simple, can they?

Spellshop ist Sarah Beth Dursts Romantasy-Debüt – eine üppige Cottagecore-Geschichte voller gestohlener Zauberbücher, unerwarteter Freundschaften, süßer Marmeladen und noch süßerer Liebe. Kiela hatte schon immer Schwierigkeiten im Umgang mit Menschen. Zum Glück hat sie als Bibliothekarin der Großen Bibliothek von Alyssium gemeinsam mit ihrem Assistenten Caz – einer magisch empfindungsfähigen Spinnenpflanze – das letzte Jahrzehnt abgeschieden zwischen den kostbarsten Zauberbüchern des Reiches verbracht und ihre Magie für die Elite der Stadt bewahrt. Als eine Revolution beginnt und die Bibliothek in Flammen aufgeht, fliehen sie und Caz mit so vielen Zauberbüchern, wie sie tragen können, und machen sich auf den Weg zu einer abgelegenen Insel, von der Kiela nie gedacht hätte, dass sie sie wiedersehen würde: ihrer Heimat aus Kindertagen. Dort findet Kiela zu ihrem Missfallen einen neugierigen – und sehr gut aussehenden – Nachbarn vor, der keinen Wink versteht und Tag für Tag auftaucht, um sicherzugehen, dass sie genug zu essen hat, und ihr beim Herrichten ihres neuen Zuhauses zu helfen. Da sie Geld braucht, stellt Kiela fest, dass es etwas gibt, das nicht einmal die Bäckerei im Ort hat: Marmelade. Mit der Hilfe eines alten Rezeptbuchs, das ihre Eltern ihr hinterlassen haben, und ein wenig illegaler Magie ist ihr Bauerngarten bald voller reifer Beeren. Doch Magie kann mehr, als das Leben ein wenig zu versüßen, und so riskiert Kiela die Folgen der Anwendung nicht genehmigter Zauber und eröffnet den ersten dringend benötigten geheimen Zauberladen der Insel. Wie eine Hallmark-Romcom voller mythischer Wesen, angetrieben von Zimtschnecken und Magie, wird Spellshop dein Herz heilen und deine Seele nähren.

New York Times bestselling author Sarah Beth Durst invites you to her new standalone novel nestled on a far\-away island brimming with singing flowers, honey cakes, and honeyed love. The hardcover edition features beautiful sprayed edges. Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium. This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly\-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. She’s starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes, and freshly baked honey cakes—at least until she’s ready to sail home. But Terlu can’t return home and doesn’t want to—the greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failing—causing the death of everything within them—Terlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again. This time, though, she isn’t alone. Assisted by the gardener and a sentient rose, Terlu must unravel the secrets of a long\-dead sorcerer if she wants to save the island—and have a fresh chance at happiness and love. Funny, kind, and forgiving, The Enchanted Greenhouse is a story about giving second chances—to others and to yourself.

Marin is a supply runner with her own boat that she sails from island to island, delivering whatever anyone will pay her to deliver: letters, flour, even the occasional enchanted lemur. It’s a lonely life, but it’s hers, and she wouldn’t trade the freedom of the sea for anything. Her only companion is a sea serpent, Perri, whom she saved from a fisherfolk’s net. One day, she sails to Alyssium and discovers the city is on fire. There’s been a revolution, and the empire has fallen. Marin, with Perri, begins transporting refugees, finding them new homes where they can start over. One such refugee is Dax, a composer who refuses to leave behind his instruments, no matter how much she tries to emphasize the gravity of the situation. Intrigued by his stubbornness, his passion for stories, and his charming smile, Marin discovers perhaps she isn’t saving him ― maybe it’s the other way around. From the acclaimed author of The Spellshop, Sea of Charms is a delightful cosy fantasy for fans of Travis Baldree and TJ Klune.

There was and there was not, as all stories begin, a princess cursed to be poisonous to the touch. But for Soraya, who has lived her life hidden away, apart from her family, safe only in her gardens, it’s not just a story. As the day of her twin brother’s wedding approaches, Soraya must decide if she’s willing to step outside of the shadows for the first time. Below in the dungeon is a demon who holds knowledge that she craves, the answer to her freedom. And above is a young man who isn’t afraid of her, whose eyes linger not with fear, but with an understanding of who she is beneath the poison. Soraya thought she knew her place in the world, but when her choices lead to consequences she never imagined, she begins to question who she is and who she is becoming...human or demon. Princess or monster.
