The Fae Next Door
As if saving his town wasn’t enough, a young wizard must now bridge the gap between humans and fae and become the peacemaker for two worlds.
When a magical mega-storm was leveled against wizard Wil McKenzie’s beloved hometown of Harper Valley, the master miracle worker saved the day and became a hero. Unfortunately, in the wake of the bewitching squall, a whole new world of trouble has opened up.
With the relations between humans and their new fae neighbors as fraught as ever, Wil and his girlfriend, Darlene, have stepped into the realm of the faerie. They’re forging a path to its capital, Oakheart Spiral, to talk peace and diplomacy with only the best of intentions. They also have the best of guides: Syl, a cloven-hooved, goat-headed healer, protector, and mediator, who knows the people and the land. And more importantly, he knows the dangers and the centuries of bad blood that lie between them and their destination.
Because forces―both human and far from it―that prefer war to peace are aligning against Wil, including rival wizards, murderous wampus cats, mischievous wee folk, avenging royalty, and other beasties on the prowl. But nobody and no thing is going to keep him from finally setting things right . . .

Cozy Pairings

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: Wil and Darlene have stepped into the fae realm, guided through ancient and dangerous lands by a cloven-hooved healer who knows every shadow and story of the territory. Witches Brew carries the earthy, wild depth of a world where old magic has been living for centuries before humans arrived to complicate things. Light this candle as they make their way toward Oakheart Spiral, and let the grounding warmth of patchouli and violet fill the room like a forest path where the roots go deeper than anyone knows.
