What happens when a solitary witch breaks every rule she’s ever followed? Magic, mischief, and maybe—just maybe—home.

Mika Moon has spent her life in the shadows, hiding her powers and keeping her distance from other witches. As one of the few in Britain, she knows the dangers of detection. But loneliness has a way of making us bend the rules, so she posts videos online, “pretending” to be a witch. Surely no one will believe it’s real.

Then comes the message that changes everything: an invitation to the mysterious Nowhere House, where three young witches desperately need her guidance. It’s everything she shouldn’t do. She goes anyway.

What she finds is a household brimming with secrets—three magical children, two devoted caretakers, one absent archaeologist, a retired actor with stories to spare, and Jamie. The prickly, protective librarian who sees Mika as a threat to the family he’d do anything to shield. An irritatingly attractive threat.

As Mika teaches the children and tangles with Jamie, something unexpected begins to bloom: the radical possibility of belonging. But when danger arrives at their door, she’ll have to choose between the safety of solitude and the messy, beautiful risk of found family.

Perfect for fans of T.J. Klune and cozy fantasy lovers seeking warmth, wit, and a little seaside magic to curl up with.
