In Wisteria Hollow, magic is public, permitted, inspected—and about as exciting as plumbing.

Bell arrives in town hoping her late grandmother’s herbal apothecary will give her a quiet place to recover from burnout. Instead, she inherits a shop full of living family craft, a town that politely ignores anything unpermitted, and a grumpy carpenter next door who has no patience for newcomers—or for the way Bell keeps making his carefully repaired building misbehave.

As autumn gathers around Wisteria Hollow, Bell and her new neighbors face small magical mishaps with very real emotional consequences. Every remedy, repair, and reluctant act of kindness draws her deeper into a found family she never expected. Meanwhile, the carpenter’s guarded disapproval begins to soften into something warmer, steadier, and much harder to ignore.

The Witch Next Door is a cozy small-town witch romance featuring:

Herbal magic with a practical, warmly comic twist
A grumpy/sunshine slow-burn romance
Found family and an inviting autumn town
Low-stakes magical trouble with heartfelt consequences
A strictly closed-door romance with kisses on the page
A satisfying happily-ever-after and room for more Wisteria Hollow stories

Come to Wisteria Hollow for the magic, stay for the neighbors, and discover whether Bell can turn an inherited shop—and an unexpected connection—into a home.
