A Charming Sort Of Trouble

She bound her own magic to half-strength to keep everyone safe. Then he moved in next door - and being near him is the one thing that sets it loose. Margot Hale is the witch who holds Hemlock Row together. She brews the tea, refreshes the wards no one notices, and fixes every problem before anyone thinks to ask. She's also the strongest witch on the block - operating, on purpose, at half her true power.
Years ago her gift surged and hurt someone she loved, so she leashed it. Control became safety. Wanting became something she gave up, right alongside being wanted. Then Dorian Ashe rents the long-empty Marigold, and the streetlamps brighten when he walks past. He's charming, maddeningly helpful, and exactly the kind of trouble Margot has spent a decade avoiding - because Dorian is a reformed incubus, and his pull doesn't drain her.
It unbinds her. Near him, desire and power flood in as one impossible sensation, which means reaching for him is reaching for the very magic she swore never to touch again. She'd keep her distance forever. if the Row's ancient hearthstone weren't going cold out of season, with the chill creeping shop to shop. Waking it requires a full Banking of the Hearth - more power than Margot has let herself hold in years.
Power she can only channel safely with Dorian as her anchor. To save her home, the giver who needs no one has to learn the hardest spell of all: how to want on purpose, and how to let herself be chosen. A Charming Sort of Trouble is a warm, witchy, slow-burn paranormal romcom brimming with banter, found family, a meddling apothecary, a ghost with opinions, and one enormous gray cat who has decided - to Margot's deep annoyance - that the incubus is wonderful.
Perfect for readers of Sarah Hawley's Glimmer Falls and Erin Sterling's Graves Glen. Closed-door heat, guaranteed happily-ever-after, and a cozy magical block you'll want to move onto.
