Before the Magic Fades
(2027)(The first book in the Bewitched & Betrothed series)
A Story by Kelly Garcia
When historian Clara Mercer is hired to research an old Victorian, she expects dusty archives and a straightforward paycheck. Instead, she finds Henry Owens''her former college RA, the man who once confiscated her contraband hot plate—and the most beautiful, impossible house she’s ever seen.
Built by a Welsh witch in 1887, the grand pink Victorian has a name, a personality, and serious opinions about tea. It also has a problem: its magic is dying, and Henry needs Clara to find the Bythe descendant who can save it.
Clara doesn’t believe in magic. She believes in documented evidence, defensible reports, and keeping certain thoughts to herself. Especially the one about Henry’s forearms becoming a genuine problem.
But one Wisconsin winter, a century-old mystery, and a house that seems suspiciously invested in their relationship may force Clara to reconsider what she believes about magic—and happily ever after.
Before the Magic Fades is a witchy romantic comedy about a historian who stopped believing in happy endings, a man who never did, and a house absolutely certain it knows best.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
