A coming-of-age cosy spin-off to The House Witch Series about a princess and royal matters of the heart and a kingdom's expectation...

It's been twenty years since Finlay Ashowan, the fabled house witch of Daxaria, first cooked up supernatural hijinks in the castle at Austice. Since then, much has changed. The royal family has only just returned to the beloved city of Austice after nearly two decades. Peace has been established since the end of the war with Troivack, and the Crown Princess, Alina, is ready to pick the perfect nobleman to be her husband.

But the princess's quest for her ideal match is proving rather difficult.

Alina must manage expectations, flirtations and magical misadventures. All as she struggles to find her own place within her kingdom and understand the blossoming desires of her own heart...
