Midsummer Brews & Moonlight Truths
In Thistledown, the summer moonlight brews more than tea - it stirs up truths long buried in root and rune.
Midsummer Brews & Moonlight Truths is the second book in The Cinderwitch Chronicles, a warm and whimsical cozy fantasy series filled with enchanted tea, mysterious magic, quiet transformations, and the gentle unraveling of secrets best steeped slowly. For fans of found family, magical realism, and low-stakes fantasy with deep heart.
The Midsummer Brew Festival is in full bloom, and Merrin's teashop is overwhelmed with orders for enchanted blends, truth-telling brews, and calming infusions. When a local tea reveals a long-held betrayal under moonlight, it sets off a chain reaction of unintended revelations. Magic is misbehaving again - and some brews are revealing more than their makers intended.
When Merrin crafts a rare "truth tea" for the festival's main event, she sees a vision of herself as a child inside the Grove - a place she has no memory of ever visiting. Meanwhile, Junie's spellwork goes awry, flinging her into a dream-realm filled with whispering trees and mysterious forces that call her "Seedling." The village grows uneasy as enchanted dreams begin to spill into waking life, and a stranger named Maelor arrives - his magic too ancient, too strange, and disturbingly familiar.
As storm clouds gather over Thistledown, Merrin and Junie must unravel the meaning of the Grove's pull, the sentient book's cryptic warnings, and the legacy of the Keepers - those once sworn to protect the oldest magic in the land. When the final tea is brewed, and secrets steeped in steam begin to sing, both witch and apprentice will face the same question: What is magic for, if not to heal what once was broken?
Step back into the candle-lit teahouse, where magic hums in kettles and choices are written in steam. The Grove is listening.
