Love's a Witch

From New York Times bestselling author Tricia O’Malley, Charmed meets The Pumpkin Spice Café in this cozy romantasy about a witch returning to Scotland to break a family curse—only to clash with one grumpy Scotsman determined to protect his town from her haywire magic.

She’s hexed. He’s vexed. And for Scotland’s most magical small-town, their feud might just spell disaster.

Sloane MacGregor swore she’d never return to Briarhaven, but with her twenty-fifth birthday looming—the day witches come into their magic—her grandmother summons her and her sisters back for one tiny task: break the centuries-old curse haunting their bloodline.

Knox Douglas, Briarhaven’s grumpy mayor, has worked tirelessly to make his town a haven for magical folk. The last thing he needs is a cursed MacGregor wreaking havoc. It doesn’t matter he once crushed on her. For the sake of Briarhaven, Sloane has to go.

But magic has other plans—and in Briarhaven, love really is a witch.

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: Sloane MacGregor swore she would never come back to Briarhaven, but her grandmother has summoned her home and her magic is doing its very best to ruin everything the grumpy mayor has worked so hard to build. Witches Brew carries the earthy, ancient warmth of a place where magic has been living in the soil for centuries, the scent of something old and stubborn and quietly beautiful. Light this candle as Sloane returns to the town she left behind, and let the grounding warmth of patchouli and clove fill the room like a Scottish village where the past and the present are always in conversation.
