In this Hades and Persephone-inspired retelling, we’re introduced to Hecate “Kate” Goodwin, a hedge witch navigating the lingering grief of her mother’s death. Just as Kate starts to feel ready to embrace her new responsibilities, Matthew Cypher—a brooding, dark, and handsome figure from her past—re-enters her life. But Matt isn’t the only one from Kate’s past who is interested in her fate. This enchanting story is perfect for readers who enjoy a love story steeped in magic and lore, complete with endearing characters who also happen to have a talent for baking.
