Description
This cosy, romantic fantasy is perfect for fans of Gilmore Girls, The Baby Dragon Cafe, and Legends and Lattes!
Welcome to Maple Falls
A town full of wonder and magic, where pixie dust and the smell of enchanted cookies waft through the air, and all manner of fantastical creatures live in perfect bliss.
Unless you're Maya Reverie.
Kitchen witch, Maya just needs one thing in her life to go well. Done with being a walking disaster, she knows the exact thing that'll help get her life on track... finding her soulmate. It shouldn't be difficult; she has all the ingredients for the ultimate soulmate-finding-cookie.
But disaster strikes when her cookies end up at the town's Annual Fall Bake Sale and wreak havoc. Maya will do anything to fix her latest mess-up, even ask Orion Hawthorne for help.
The surly dragon-shifter has always been a thorn in her side, but he is the town's best curse-breaker and, whether she likes it or not, she'll need his help.
Because to fix this spell she'll need to: find her actual soulmate, confess, and cast a counterspell of epic proportions. Easy.

About the Author
Safa Ahmed is a British-Pakistani content marketer and Psychology undergraduate.

When she's not writing, she is usually re-reading her favourite fantasy novels, wreaking havoc in the kitchen or expanding her ever-growing TBR pile.
