Charms, Curses & Clues
(2026)(The third book in the Havenwood Cove Cozy Fantasy Mystery series)
A novel by Susie Swenson
Every charm has a cost. Every curse leaves a mark. And every clue pulls Sera deeper into the truth.
Havenwood Cove is adjusting to life with dragons in the skies—and a Guardian who refuses to give up on finding a better way.
When the Blackthorn journal reveals its next cryptic clue, Sera expects to find another piece of the puzzle. What she finds instead begins to unravel Havenwood’s history in ways she never anticipated, and a town-wide scavenger hunt uncovers far more than friendly competition.
As Sera follows the trail, she begins to suspect the clues aren’t simply leading her forward—they’re revealing something that has been quietly unfolding all along. And sometimes, what looks broken is only the beginning.
In Havenwood Cove, even the smallest mystery can shift the balance of magic.���� In Charms, Clues & Curses you’ll find:
~A magical seaside town where secrets refuse to stay buried
~A Guardian learning that power comes with consequences
~Ancient curses and clues that refuse to behave
~Talking animal familiars (still snarky, now slightly alarmed)
~A dragon-shifter struggling to master more than just his wings
~Found family bonds tested—but not broken
~Slow-burn romance under pressure
~A mystery that digs deeper than anyone expected
Perfect for readers who love cozy fantasy mysteries with layered magic, emotional stakes, found family warmth, dragon lore, and heroines who refuse to back down when the world asks them to choose the impossible.
Because in Havenwood Cove, every charm carries a cost… and every clue leads somewhere dangerous.
Come back to Havenwood Cove—where magic remembers… and nothing stays buried for long.
