The Veilkeeper's Key
(2025)(The fifth book in the Hearth & Crust Mysteries series)
A novel by Wynn Valentine
🔮 Every ending is a beginning. Every goodbye is hello.
The Hearth & Crust Inn has been home to countless adventures, but now the greatest choice awaits: the power to end an age of magic forever.
When Amara receives the legendary Veilkeeper's Key from an ancient oracle, she and her chosen family face an impossible decision. The Veilborn magic that flows through their world—the same power that makes Amara's pastries dance with enchantment and keeps their inn alive with sentient warmth—comes from the suffering of consciousness trapped for seven centuries.
As mysterious doors appear throughout the inn, each one revealing pieces of a final ritual, Draven must embrace his role as eternal guardian, Lenora discovers the true weight of her bloodline, and Jill learns that some patterns are meant to be broken forever. Even Mordain Shadecloak, their shadow-touched enemy, faces his own moment of truth about the difference between preservation and prison.
But endings this profound don't come without cost. When the ritual begins and ancient magic fights to survive, they'll discover whether love is truly stronger than power—and if the family they've built can endure the loss of everything that brought them together.
The Veilkeeper's Key delivers an emotionally resonant finale where sacrifice becomes gift, chosen family proves stronger than blood, and sometimes the greatest magic is simply choosing to let go.
📚 The epic conclusion to the beloved Hearth & Crust Chronicles
✨ Perfect for readers who love:
