Small Town, Big Magic: A Witchy Romantic Comedy (Witchlore, 1)
There's no such thing as witches...right?
Emerson Wilde has built the life of her dreams. Youngest Chamber of Commerce president in St. Cyprian history, successful indie bookstore owner, and lucky enough to have her best friends as found family? Done.
But when Emerson is attacked by creatures that shouldn't be real, and kills them with what can only be called magic, Emerson finds that the past decade of her life has been...a lie. St. Cyprian isn't your average Midwestern river town--it's a haven for witches. When Emerson failed a power test years ago, she was stripped of her magical memories. Turns out, Emerson's friends are all witches.
And so is she.
That's not all, though: evil is lurking in the charming streets of St. Cyprian. Emerson will need to learn to control what's inside of her, remember her magic, and deal with old, complicated feelings for her childhood friend--cranky-yet-gorgeous local farmer Jacob North--to defeat an enemy that hides in the rivers and shadows of everything she loves.
Even before she had magic, Emerson would have done anything for St. Cyprian, but now she'll have to risk not just her livelihood...but her life.

DNFâd so quick. Like a quarter of the way in. As a passionate feminist I love powerful female characters all about girl power but oh my god there is no subtlety here. There is no reason for her internal narrative to be 80% sticker slogans and explanations of how her feelings are feminist and not problematic. Emerson is absolutely one of the worst protagonists I have read in the last few years. I seriously canât with this book.
A very fun read that had me wanting to immerse myself more into the world of St. Cyprian by the page.
A fun, small town with witchy vibes easy read. Perfect for a sunny fall day. I really enjoyed Emerson’s character, as well as the general story line. I want to know more about her family and will be adding the next 2 books to my tbr list
