The Holiday Hex
(2026)(The second book in the Solstice Swap Duology series)
A novel by Danielle Garrett
The Holiday meets Practical Magic in this witchy winter rom-com.
Magical archivist Marren Byrne thought she had her life figured out. She spends her days restoring ancient grimoires and leather-bound tomes, and goes home to her cozy mountain home and sassy feline familiar. The only downside? Her unrequited crush on her boss—a secret she guards more closely than the rare manuscripts in her care.
But when a holiday house swap drops her into the heart of Hecate’s Kitchen, the secret magical district inside Los Angeles, she realizes she’s been sleepwalking through her own story.
Everything changes when she spots Derrick Werston—the reclusive author whose debut novel she’s read a dozen times—and one awkward fangirl moment leads to unexpected friendship with literary LA’s most mysterious man.
As late-night conversations turn into mistletoe kisses, Marren finds herself in the kind of romance she’s only read about. But even the magic of Christmas can be threatened by hexes from the past, and suddenly her future is anything but certain.
Can Marren let go of old secrets and rewrite her ending, or will she retreat to the life she’s always known?
