Hidden magic in the rest of the world. Fae Enclaves like Misty Valley it's in the open. Unless a mundane tourist shows up. Book 2 has a couple of vloggers arrive with cameras and a disappearing body they spot.

April Storm moves to Wales from the US to open a hip coffee shop with her batty old aunt who runs a tea room in a quaint little village.... Fish out of water, "You're a wizard, Harry!", Found Family, and some strange magical murders! Lots of quirky characters. April is smart, reserved, & loyal

I recommend starting with Book 1, Lattes and Spirits, available in all the retailers. I'm writing book 11 in the series.

Usually a murder by the end of act 1. Another crime in act 2, then a big showdown in act 3. All cozy, but with magic. And a snarky talking cat.

I took most of a month off from writing ... and just went back and read the first 8 chapters of Mystic Brews 11. "That's a fun mystery! I wonder what happens next?" I mused as I hit save.
Guess I better figure that out soon!

"There are three types of writers: 1. Those who plot their books 2. Those who discover their plot along the way 3. Those who know what will happen but their book is a bit feral still, needs a bath, has bitten and will bite again" Tweet from C G Drews, 21 July, 2019

I sooooo feel this every book I write. Usually about chapter five it starts growling, then by chapter 10 the plot is ripping up the couch cushions and chasing stray animals around the office...
