Bewitching the Bureaucrat
(2025)(The third book in the Familiar Arrangement series)
A novel by Wynn Valentine
Falling for the auditor inspecting your magical home? Definitely not part of Maple Fenwick’s renovation plans.
Free-spirited witch Maple Fenwick inherits a crumbling, hex-riddled cottage—and with it, a surprise audit from the Bureau of Magical Compliance. Her assigned inspector? Cyrus Vale: inflexible, infuriating, and entirely immune to charm. When a magical snowstorm traps them inside together, the audit becomes much more personal.
Now Maple and Cyrus must survive sentient plumbing, emotionally reactive hearth spells, and familiars with matchmaking agendas. The cottage seems determined to push them closer, and worse? It’s working. The fireplace glows when they touch. Their bedroom doors won’t stay separated. And somewhere between the Bureau's paperwork and one too many accidental almost-kisses, falling in love stops feeling like a violation.
But when emotional entanglement is the biggest code breach of all, Maple will have to choose: play by the rules, or risk everything for the one thing magic can’t regulate.
If you love cozy romantasy, grumpy/sunshine tension, magical forced proximity, and closed-door romantic chaos, Bewitching the Bureaucrat is a spellbinding delight from the first citation to the last kiss.
A Cozy Romantasy Featuring Grumpy/Sunshine, Forced Proximity, and One Emotionally Chaotic Cottage
"Steamy tea spells, slow-burn longing, and the best magical audit you never asked for—Bewitching the Bureaucrat is romantic compliance chaos in the best way."
Genre: Paranormal Romance
