As the Cookie Crumbles
Christmas is right around the corner, and Stormy Morgan is ready to celebrate for the first time in years. She’s been dreaming of one thing…Shadow Hills’ infamous Christmas festival.
There’s just one little problem.
When helping her new friend Easton pick out clothes in the thrift store, Stormy discovers the owner is missing. What’s worse, it looks as if there was a struggle in the back room. What happened to the married mother of one?
Stormy gets her boyfriend Hunter Ryan involved and they start searching. The only thing they can ascertain with any certainty is that there’s a hint of magic pulsing around the town, and maybe it has something to do with the disappearance.
Stormy has her hands full with gnome shifters and her old high school nemesis, so a missing person’s case isn’t something she’s looking forward to. She has no choice but to dig, though. Her conscious won’t allow the alternative.
Stormy might be new at the magic contest, but she understands winning. When another person disappears, she realizes she’s playing the wrong game.
In a world where fire rules, cold is about to claim them all. Can Stormy win? She’s about to find out. Come along for the ride.

Cozy Pairings
Brown Sugar Cinnamon is a warm, bakery-inspired fragrance that wraps you in the comforting sweetness of brown sugar and melted butter, gently spiced with cinnamon. Rich and inviting, this scent evokes the feeling of something freshly baked lingering in the air, soft and golden with just a touch of indulgence. Smooth and well balanced, it brings a sense of warmth and familiarity to any space, creating a cozy atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and comforting.
Why we chose this: Stormy Morgan came home to Shadow Hills a failed novelist and discovered she is a witch, her high school boyfriend is the detective on every murder case she keeps accidentally stumbling into, and her family diner is somehow always at the center of everything. From Ouija boards and talking cats to gnome shifters and magical children, the trouble in Shadow Hills runs as deep as its secrets, but the diner is always there, warm and golden and smelling like something delicious. Brown Sugar Cinnamon carries exactly that quality, the scent of a kitchen where the ordinary and the extraordinary have made a comfortable home together, sweet and familiar and alive with the feeling that the most important things in life happen around a table. It is the candle for every book in this series. Light this candle and let the warmth fill the room like a Michigan diner on a winter morning when the coffee is hot, the magic is surfacing, and Stormy is already three steps ahead of everyone except the one person she loves most.
