Description
From the author of Hopelessly Teavoted comes a witchy, sapphic rom-com about a mischievous runaway bride and her prim-and-proper Witchery Council rival that must fake-date in order to catch a would-be murderer-and accidentally fall in love.
Priscilla Hart does not do regret-except maybe for the small matter of fleeing her own wedding in a cloud of magical fireworks. Now the town's most infamous runaway witch, she's determined to rebuild her reputation on the Witchery Council and prove she's more than a scandal in heels.
Agatha Vanderbilt Voisin, the newly elected council president, is everything Priscilla can't stand: composed, proper, and infuriatingly perfect. But when a string of dangerous magical explosions points to Priscilla as the culprit, Agatha makes an impulsive move-announcing that they're dating-to save her from exile.
Faking a relationship in public should be simple...until late-night arguments turn into slow-burn attraction, and the two discover that something wicked is brewing in Hallowcross. To survive the magic-and their feelings-they'll have to stop pretending and risk falling for real.

Reviews / Votes
"I know when I see Audrey Goldberg's name on a book, I'm going to be in for a spectacularly cozy, hilarious and fantastical love story. It was delightful being back in the town of Hallowcross, and diving into Priscilla and Agatha's playful enemies-to-lovers fake relationship. These two banter, prank, and yearn their way to solving a true magical caper to earn their happily ever after. Readers will adore this perfectly spooky read any time of year!" -- <B>Mallory Marlowe, <I>USA Today</I> Bestselling Author of <I>Love at First Sighting</I></B>More details
