DELUXE EDITIONâ"a gorgeous hardcover edition featuring beautiful lavender sprayed edges!

The Spellshop is Sarah Beth Durstâs romantasy debutâ"a lush cottagecore tale full of stolen spellbooks, unexpected friendships, sweet jams, and even sweeter love.

Kiela has always had trouble dealing with people. Thankfully, as a librarian at the Great Library of Alyssium, she and her assistant, Cazâ"a magically sentient spider plantâ"have spent the last decade sequestered among the empireâs most precious spellbooks, preserving their magic for the cityâs elite.

When a revolution begins and the library goes up in flames, she and Caz flee with all the spellbooks they can carry and head to a remote island Kiela never thought sheâd see again: her childhood home. Taking refuge there, Kiela discovers, much to her dismay, a nosyâ"and very handsomeâ"neighbor who canât take a hint and keeps showing up day after day to make sure sheâs fed and to help fix up her new home.

In need of income, Kiela identifies something that even the bakery in town doesnât have: jam. With the help of an old recipe book her parents left her and a bit of illegal magic, her cottage garden is soon covered in ripe berries.

But magic can do more than make life a little sweeter, so Kiela risks the consequences of using unsanctioned spells and opens the islandâs first-ever and much needed secret spellshop.

Like a Hallmark rom-com full of mythical creatures and fueled by cinnamon rolls and magic, The Spellshop will heal your heart and feed your soul.
