Magic has a way of bringing together the people who were never supposed to fall in love.
In Sangu Mandanna’s A Witch’s Guide to Magical Innkeeping, Sera Swan was once one of the most powerful witches in Britain—until she sacrificed most of her magic to resurrect her beloved aunt. Now she runs an enchanted inn in Lancashire, dealing with her quirky guests and longing for a future that seems entirely lost. Then she meets Luke Larsen, the handsome and icy magical historian who could hold the key to restoring her power. Luke has no interest in letting a certain witch past his walls, so no one is more surprised than he when he agrees to help. But as the two work together Sera begins to wonder... could love be the best magic of all?
In Stephanie Burgis’ Enchanting the Fae Queen, Queen Lorelei is a notorious fae seductress with a trail of broken hearts in her wake. But behind her glamorous mask lurks a dangerously intelligent woman who’d do anything to keep her people safe—even kidnap the empire’s most famous hero. The last thing th virtuous high general Gerard de Moireul needs is the Queen of Balravia, who showers glitter and rainbow-coloured sparkles everywhere she goes. They’re opposites in every way, but when they’re swept up together in a grand—and deadly—fae tournament, they discover all of each other’s most hidden truths, and how perfectly they might be suited for each other after all.
This event will be chaired by Kshoni Gunputh.
