Faking with the Fae King

I’ll do anything to save my magical small town, even fake marry a grumpy shadow fae. What could go wrong?

When magic floods my small town, it brings mayhem and turns me and my besties into newbie witches. As mayor, I haven’t got a clue how to handle pixie pranksters, walking tulips, or sexy shadow daddies swooping out of the sky. How the hell do I hide all these shenanigans from the non-magical world?

Enter King Severin, aka, sexy shadow daddy, aka, my future hubs.

Turns out that last one’s no joke! He offers to wrap my town in Faerie glamour to protect it from outsiders… if I agree to be his fake wife for a year.

It’s fine, totally fine. I’ll simply ignore his devastating cheekbones and sinful smirk.

But there’s a catch. I have to win a magical Bachelor-style competition to prove I’m worthy to be queen. Eensy problem? I don’t have any idea how to use magic.

The very first event? I fall flat on my face, literally.

Severin growls he’ll teach me magic so I can win. Suddenly, my “fiancé” is glued to my side, his every touch making my tummy flutter. And when he takes me flying? Hooo, boy. My foolish heart keeps forgetting all of this is fake…

Cozy Pairings

Each pairing is chosen to create a cozy moment where scent, story, and craft come together.
Witches Brew

Witches Brew is an earthy and softly floral fragrance that opens with warm clove and gentle spice, creating an immediate sense of familiarity. At its heart, delicate violet brings a subtle sweetness that lifts and softens the richness of dark patchouli. The base is deep and grounding, with smoky, woodsy notes that linger in the air, balanced by a soft warmth. Smooth and atmospheric, this scent feels both comforting and a little unexpected, blending warmth, earth, and soft florals into something subtly captivating.

Why we chose this: Magic flooded the small town of Ferndale Falls and turned the mayor and her friends into newbie witches overnight, and now there are pixie pranksters, walking tulips, shadow fae kings, werewolves, dragons, and werepanthers all finding their way into the chaos and into people's hearts. Witches Brew is the candle for every book in this series, earthy and softly magical, with the warm depth of patchouli and the gentle sweetness of violet that smells like a place where old magic has arrived uninvited and decided to stay. Light this candle and let the grounding warmth fill the room like a small town that woke up one morning entirely transformed and somehow, improbably, more itself than ever.
