Synopsis

It is a truth universally acknowledged that Austen Heights is a sleepy little town—until a murder wakes it up.

Elizabeth Bennet’s life is exactly what you’d expect for a half-witch, half-fae in a small town. She shares a cozy apartment with roommates, writes about social events for the local newspaper, and helps out in her family’s bakery—famous for its love potions, gossip, and her mother’s poor nerves. But when her mom becomes a suspect in a murder case, the predictable headlines of Lizzy’s life take a chilling turn.

Determined to clear her mother’s name, Lizzy throws herself into the investigation. While chasing a lead, a spell goes awry, tangling her fate—quite literally—with her number one suspect: the arrogant, brooding Darcy. The only thing worse than searching for clues with the intolerable fae by her side? Her growing attraction to him.

Can Lizzy crack the case and get her scoop before the killer strikes again? Or will her prejudice and his pride be the death of them both?
