Summary

She found magic in the most unlikely of places.

A cosy, heartwarming and uplifting magical romance about an isolated witch whose opportunity to embrace a quirky new family—and a new love—changes the course of her life.

As one of the few witches in Britain, Mika Moon has lived her life by three rules: hide your magic, keep your head down, and stay away from other witches. An orphan raised by strangers from a young age, Mika is good at being alone, and she doesn't mind it...mostly.

But then an unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches, and Mika jumps at the chance for a different life.

Nowhere House is nothing like she expects, and she's quickly tangled up in the lives and secrets of its quirky, caring inhabitants...and Jamie, the handsome, prickly librarian who would do anything to protect his charges, and who sees Mika's arrival as a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat.

As Mika finds her feet, the thought of belonging somewhere starts to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn't the only danger in the world, and soon Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect the found family she didn't know she was looking for....

A good tale well told

Heart warming and gentle. I like the way the witchcraft theme is handled the gentle twist it gives to the romance.

Such a lovely book

This was a pleasant surprise. I bought it because of the hype and it was such a great book, with a lovely mix of fantasy and romance interspersed between twee britishisms.

Really lovely story

Just the lovely uplifting book I needed right now, I would love there to be a series! Also the narrator’s voice is just so perfect, I could listen to her forever.

Cozy Fantasy

A 4.5 star review. Rounded up, because I cannot think of any reason not to.

I would definitely characterize this as "cozy fantasy". Take your stereotypical British fiction and add a magical element, and you've nailed the atmosphere of this book to a tee. And it seems to be a stand-alone novel, which is a pleasant surprise.

It's a comfort read with (mostly) likeable and quirky characters. I loved the kids and felt they actually acted like kids rather than "small grown-ups". There are few surprises to be found here (although not none! There were some twists I hadn't seen coming), but in this type of book, I didn't really expect there to be either. I had guessed the final resolution ahead of time, but not - as it turned out - the twist it took to get there.

Enjoyable

i was happy with the story, did what it promised.i liked the way magic was portayed. What felt wrong to me was the swearing. The use of the 'F word' didn't fit, it seemed like the author used it so the dialogue/narrative would be sound more 'real' but it was quite unnecessary.
