Hearth & Heartbreak

By: Lavendelle, Elle

The small town vibe of Gilmore Girls meets the magic of Charmed in this cozy witch x vampire romance

For years, Maple Hawthorne waited for Aris Montclair to return. But he's back now... and he's changed.

Bubbly kitchen witch Maple Hawthorne loves her family, small town, and career. There's just one problem: she still hasn't moved on from her ghosting ex, Aris Montclair. So she puts her all into her career-running the Moonlit Tavern.

When Isadora Montclair offers her the chance to make a magazine-worthy wedding cake, Maple has to take it, even if it means running into her ex.

Aris Montclair left Starbrook after a vampire attack changed his life, but he left his heart with Maple. When he returns for his sister's wedding to find that Maple's involved, it's impossible to stay away from her.

Now, Maple and Aris are closer than they're ready to be. Can Aris keep his vampiric secret, or will the truth break her heart all over again?

This is book four in a series of interconnected standalones. Each book follows a different couple and can be enjoyed on its own.
