An Ancient Witch's Guide to Modern Dating
An ancient witch explores the thrills – and perils – of online dating with hilarity and heart in this charming novel, perfect for fans of cosy fantasy and witchy romance.
Limited copies with sprayed edges available!
Meet Thorn Scarhart: a thirty-nine-year-old witch who’s having trouble finding love in the 17th century. Despite the local matchmaker’s efforts and Thorn’s arsenal of powerful love potions, she has yet to fall in love, and she fears she may have missed her chance.
But when one of her potions misfires spectacularly, Thorn is hurled 350 years into the future, landing in a bustling city where her once-isolated cottage is now a historical museum. While this unexpected leap through time is daunting, modern life does have its perks: indoor plumbing, electric kettles and, most intriguing of all, online dating.
With the help of the museum’s curator – and her charming veterinarian brother – Thorn dives headfirst into the 21st-century dating scene. And as she searches for romance, she just might find herself along the way.
