Two Sugars, No Prophecy: A Cozy Romantasy Novel

By Pippa Brambleton

She bought a haunted tea shop as a joke. The joke became her whole life.

Mari Hawthorne is burned out, three glasses of wine deep, and live-streaming her own bad decisions when she impulse-buys a "haunted tea shop, as-is" at a midnight online auction - mostly for the content.

It's real. It's perched on a fold between the human world and a sleepy magical village called Wisp's End. And it's already occupied by Thistle, a centuries-old hearth-spirit who is deeply unimpressed by his new keeper's ring light and total lack of magical competence.

With thirty days to either learn the wards or watch the fold collapse, Mari throws herself into the strangest job she's ever had - brewing tea that holds boundaries together, befriending a singing kettle-imp, and trying very hard not to fall for Rowan, the watchful, grief-haunted local who keeps showing up to fix her disasters.

But just as Mari starts building a life worth staying for, a development company sets its sights on the land beneath her shop - and Mari learns that some thresholds are worth fighting for with everything you have.

Two Sugars, No Prophecy is a cozy romantasy about second chances, found family, and choosing the right-sized thing to risk it all for - perfect for readers who love their magic gentle, their stakes personal, and their love interests slow-burn and a little broken in.Hearth magic & found familyGrumpy-to-soft hearth-spirit comic reliefSlow-burn romance with a grief-healing arcA magical village worth fighting forLow body count, high biscuit-tin count
