Never Tutor a Toad
(2026)(The fourth book in the Magical Midlife Malfunction series)
A novel by Keira Blackwood
Train the witch or she’ll kill my sister.
That's what the prophecy said.
245 years ago.
I'm an elf. Patience is wired into my DNA.
When I finally find the witch, she’s emaciated and locked in a dungeon. She doesn’t look like a murderer. Still, the sensible choice is to leave her there.
The choice I make? Not that one.
I’ll train her. I’ll save my sister. And then, I’ll finally be free.
The plan was airtight. But no plan can account for Nivek Atlas.
He’s steady, supportive, warm, and infuriating. Ignoring him feels like a full-time job. He's entirely too easy to want.
An elf with a prophecy to fulfill has no business wanting anything.
I keep telling myself that. He keeps making it harder to believe.
Expect heart, found-family, and the slow-burn realization that maybe duty and desire aren’t always at odds for Fallyn Aerynelle in this romantic cozy fantasy tale.
Genre: Fantasy
