Weddings & Wands
Enjoy this witty, small town paranormal, cozy mystery by award-winning and bestselling author Lucinda Race.
Welcome to Pembroke Cove, where witches and murders are multiplying...
In less than a week, wedding bells will ring for Gage Erikson—a.k.a. Detective Cutie—and bookstore owner and witch Lily Michaels. Lily’s to-do list is already a mile long. Adding “solve a murder” wasn’t part of the plan. But they have little choice when Lily discovers a dead Elemental witch across the street, revealing a grudge that threatens to upend not just their big day, but the entire Pembroke Cove coven.
Long ago, the Elementals had grown jealous of the power wielded by the witches in the Pembroke Cove coven, vowing to return and take their rightful place within the coven council…triggered by a leadership change. Meanwhile, Lily learns her wedding will be the catalyst and wishes she’d actually read the entire witch’s handbook.
Gage is determined to keep his puzzle-loving fiancé out of the case this time—no murder board. No sleuthing. The only thing he wants to discuss with her is their wedding. However, not even the elements of earth, wind, water, or fire will stop Lily’s investigation. But will they stop the wedding? It will take all of Lily and Gage’s witchy friends, family, and Lily’s familiar—the talking cat, Milo—to solve a murder and pull off the long-awaited wedding. It’s a good thing Lily and Gage have the most potent magic in the universe on their side—love.

Visit Pembroke Cove in this charming supernatural tale where bookshops meet broomsticks and Lily and Gage will need more than magical abilities to make it to “I do.”
Wands & Weddings is the twelfth novel in the A Book Store Cozy Mystery Series; although each book can be read as a standalone, it is best to read them in order. It is a humorous, small town, cozy mystery that guarantees the culprit is caught. Happy reading!

Cozy Pairings
Book of Spells is a deep and atmospheric fragrance that blends the richness of dark chocolate with smooth sandalwood and the earthy depth of black tea. Warm and layered, this scent carries a subtle dryness reminiscent of aged pages, balanced by a soft, lingering sweetness. The result is a fragrance that feels both grounding and slightly unexpected, with a warmth that settles gently into the space. Rich without being heavy, it creates an inviting, bookish atmosphere that lingers beautifully in the air.
Why we chose this: Lily Michaels runs the Cozy Nook Bookstore in the small seaside town of Pembroke Cove, Maine, and she has recently discovered that she is a witch, her cat Milo talks, and murders keep happening with a frequency that her detective fiancé finds both alarming and entirely predictable. Book of Spells is the candle for every book in this series, deep and atmospheric and bookish, dark chocolate and warm sandalwood and the earthy depth of black tea that smells like a beloved bookshop where magic and mystery have made themselves completely at home. Light this candle and let the warmth fill the room like a cozy New England bookstore on a day when Milo has something important to say and Gage is about to find out Lily has been sleuthing again.
