by Amy Lane (eBook)
This series follows a coven of modern-day male witches (best friends, who all live as neighbors and roommates on a dead-end street) who screw up a spell. Now two of their friends are caught in a time/space rift in their house, the neighborhood animals are behaving in a scary, weird fashion (birds flying upside-down, squirrels marching in single file), and a vague darkness is spreading throughout their cul-de-sac.
Along with trying to figure out the spell,
Book #1 deals with baker Bartholomew’s crush on Lachlan, the woodworker whose
booth is usually next to Bartholomew’s booth at local fairs and conventions
where they both sell their wares.
Each book in this series follows the romance
and courting of one of the friends in their coven, along with trying to sort
out the spell, and resolving the hex they inadvertently created. This story arc
will continue through the entire series.
Shortbread and Shadows is a sweet, light-hearted, easy read of witches,
spells, and romance that provides an enjoyable afternoon. At this time,
available from the library as an ebook on Hoopla.
Book #2, Portals and Puppy Dogs is
also available on Hoopa as an ebook. Book #3, Pentacles and Pelting
Plants is due out October 19.
