The Filigree Key
A town terrorized by magic hunters.
An impending marriage to my greatest enemy.
An executioner with my name in his ledger.
Life in small-town Redbud should not be this complicated. Yet inciting a rebellion under the Stag Man’s very nose, convincing him I’m a naïve bimbo still enspelled by his memory-altering curse, and charging the filigree key with primal magic is proving to be just that. Insanely complicated.
Lucky for Sawyer and me, we’ve got some new allies including a feral sourdough starter, a wight, and one gluttonous snail to help kick all the butts, eat all the carbs, and unlock that fae portal before my brother is trapped in the Unseelie Court's prison forever...
...and free my beloved lumbersnack.
I’m coming for you, bear claw.

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: A witch on the run from her own coven, hiding in a small Indiana town with a cursed grimoire in her farmhouse crawlspace, a pain-in-the-butt familiar, pixies in the walls, and a lumberjack shifter she is absolutely not daydreaming about. Witches Brew carries the earthy, cottagecore warmth of a series where old magic keeps arriving uninvited at the most inconvenient possible moments, the scent of a farmhouse hearth where something is always simmering and the wards are always being tested. It is the candle for every book in this series. Light this candle and let the grounding warmth of patchouli and clove fill the room like a cozy farmhouse on a rainy afternoon where the grimoire is locked in the basement and the cider is almost ready.
