The Impossible Garden of Clara Thorne
A delightful cosy romantasy in which a stubborn garden witch and her broody bodyguard must embark on a perilous quest which will unearth many secrets, including their own . . .
After a lonely childhood, Clara Thorne is finally living "happily ever after" as the magically-gifted gardener for the town of Moss. Sure, her closest companion is a surly hedgehog, and she's forever stuck on the first line of her novel, but she has a home. That is, until The Goddess chooses Clara for an important questβto travel to the cursed town of Dwindle and grow them a garden. In less than a month.
Only Clara's hiding a terrible secret: her magic doesn't work outside Moss. Worse, The Goddess has assigned the absurdly sexy, annoyingly cheerful Hesper Altanfall to keep her safe. Clara would rather eat thorns than accept helpβespecially since Hesper insists that Clara's magic is bound to her heart, not her home.
Nevertheless, the two can't help growing closer as they traverse enchanted woods and share tavern beds. But with an ancient evil threatening from the shadows, saving Dwindle will require more than enchanted crops. Clara will need to unearth a magic she's always believed impossible.

About the Author
Summer England is indeed her real name. When she's not blabbering on stage and writing off stage, you can find her doing quite literally 17,000 different ADHD-motivated projects around the house, watercolouring, playing the decidedly evil pirate to her kid's morally gray pirate, reading whilst walking, and not sitting still while watching When Harry Met Sally for the 6th time in one day.
The Impossible Garden of Clara Thorne is her debut novel.More from Sci-Fi & Fantasy
