Sinister Snack Attack

Stormy Morgan should be on top of the world. She’s engaged, about to move into her dreamhouse, and her magic is stabilizing. In fact, she’s becoming one heckuva witch.

Too bad trouble keeps finding her.

This time it comes in the form of a gang of kids who appear to be stealing cars from various townsfolk. It’s become a big enough issue that everybody in town is becoming unnerved, paranoid even. Their solution is to form a Neighborhood Watch, which should be okay in theory. Unfortunately, the reality is anything but.

Stormy’s dreams are being plagued by threatening shadows, to the point where she thinks she’s being watched. On top of that, there’s something odd going on with the mayor and his wife, which just might involve one of Stormy’s cousins. That would be enough to keep Stormy busy, but there’s more.

The residents are acting odd. They’re not just fighting crime, they’re treating it as if it’s life or death. They’re getting aggressive, and everybody is in danger. That’s everybody.

Stormy doesn’t know where to start. Is she dealing with one problem or multiple problems? She’s going to need help to get to the bottom of things. Even her powerful allies might not be enough to save the town.

Shadow Hills is home but suddenly it feels like a different place. Will Stormy be able to save Shadow Hills—and everybody who lives there—before it’s too late?

Strap in. You’re about to find out.

Cozy Pairings

Each pairing is chosen to create a cozy moment where scent, story, and craft come together.
Brown Sugar Cinnamon

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.
