The Honey Witch of Innisfree can never find true love. That is her curse to bear.
But when a young woman who doesn't believe in magic arrives on her island, sparks fly in this deliciously sweet debut romantasy novel of magic, hope, and love overcoming all.
Twenty-one-year-old Marigold Claude has always preferred the company of the spirits of the meadow to any of the suitors who've tried to woo her. So when her grandmother whisks her away to the family cottage on the tiny Isle of Innisfree with an offer to train her as the next Honey Witch, she accepts immediately. But her newfound magic and independence come with a price: No one can fall in love with the Honey Witch.
When Lottie Burke, a notoriously grumpy skeptic who doesn't believe in magic, shows up on her doorstep, Marigold can't resist the challenge to prove to her that magic is real. But soon, Marigold begins to care for Lottie in ways she never expected. And when darker magic awakens and threatens to destroy her home, she must fight for much more than her new home--at the risk of losing her magic and her heart.
"The Honey Witch is a sweet feast, brimming with whimsy, magic, and tender longing." - Rachel GilligĀ
"Featuring a grumpy/sunshine queer romance, lovely imagery, and a distinctly cozy aesthetic, this one is a charmer." --Paste MagazineĀ

What an incredible story; leading with themes of self-acceptance and ending with finding the one person who also accepts you the way you are??? No notes. Fantastic.
I loved how this book represents LGBT relationships and the plot was amazing!! Lottie 's change through out the book was perfect, and my favorite part was that Marigold got to love in the end.
This book kept my interest the whole way through. Surprised with same sex couples being so normal without any judgments. Very well written.
I feel like I may be in the minority, but I didnāt enjoy this writing style. I loved the characters, but it took ages to feel like it went anywhere. If this werenāt for book club, I probably would have DNF, but I am glad I didnāt because the second half read like a cursed Romantasy and I loved it! The beginning was just really slow for me.
I loved this book! Lottie and Mari and amazing characters that I really want to see more of. I love their character development and their wit. I love this magic world, it is new and bright for more and I just keep thinking of all the new possibilities. This book was beautiful, beginning to end. A must read.
