A delightful queer romantic fantasy full of friends-to-lovers chemistry, found family, rival family drama, and cozy garden magic from two acclaimed YA authors making their adult debut
Yael Clauneck is more interested in drinking and flirting than joining their powerful familyโs business. Theyโre on the precipice of a predetermined life when they flee their own graduation party, galloping away in search of . . . well, theyโre not sure, but maybe the chance to feel like life can still be a grand adventure.
Margot Greenwillowโtalented plant witch, tea lover, and greenhouse ownerโhas never felt further from adventure in her life. Sheโs been desperately trying to keep what remains of her familyโs magic remedies business afloat. So when Yael, her childhood friend and former crush, rides back into her life, sheโs shocked. But perhaps this could be a good thing. After all, Margot could use an assistant in the greenhouses.
Yael has no experience or, honestly, practical skills, but theyโre delighted to accept the job. They can lay low for a while, flirting with Margot and figuring out what to do next. Meanwhile, Margot has plans of her ownโbut plans are notoriously unreliable, and unlikely to survive a swiftly blooming mutual attraction, not to mention the machinations of parents determined to get their heir back . . . no matter the cost.
