Blood, Sweets and Tears
When novice witch Caitlyn Le Fey heads to the outdoor cinema festival at a beautiful Cotswolds manor, the last thing she expects is for the evening to end in murder. But when a dead man is found with fang marks in his neck and her old vampire uncle, Viktor, is arrested, Caitlyn must use all her newfound magic powers to clear his name.
Sleuthing isn't simple, however, with so many strangers arriving at her grandmother's enchanted chocolate shop: there's the secretive village tenant with creepy Goth tastes, the inscrutable new butler at Huntingdon Manor-and a charming Frenchman keen to win Caitlyn's heart. And that's before she has to master the art of making the perfect chocolate soufflé or deal with a Levitation spell gone horribly wrong! Still, at least she has the help of her naughty kitten, Nibs, not to mention all the village gossips!
Then a wild goose chase leads to an unexpected discovery and Caitlyn realises that she's missed a clue under her nose all along. Can she solve the mystery-and maybe even discover Lord James Fitzroy's real feelings for her? Or will she succumb to a vampire's fatal bite?

Cozy Pairings
Sleepy Hollow is a warm and comforting fragrance that blends sweet pumpkin with rich molasses and soft brown sugar, gently spiced with cinnamon. Smooth and inviting, this scent captures the depth of baked pumpkin balanced with a subtle sweetness that lingers in the air. The result is a fragrance that feels both cozy and nostalgic, with a warmth that brings a sense of ease to any space.
Why we chose this: In the tiny English village of Tillyhenge, Caitlyn Le Fey is discovering that being a witch means solving murders through seasons of harvest festivals, masquerade balls, Midsummer bonfires, and autumn equinox celebrations, all while her grandmother's enchanted chocolate shop sits at the heart of everything. Sleepy Hollow is the candle for every book in this series, warm pumpkin and rich molasses and soft cinnamon, the scent of an English village at its most golden and a little bit gothic, sweet and spiced and alive with the feeling that something magical is always just around the corner. Light this candle and let the warmth fill the room like an afternoon in a chocolate shop where the recipes are ancient and the proprietor knows a great deal more than she is telling.
