Augustine Pepperday has never fallen in love. Trust her heart to start with a ghost.
Augustine has spent her life being the ordinary Pepperday witch.
Her sisters read the stars and make magic look effortless. Augustine runs a sage-scented little shop selling overpriced candles and salmon-flavoured healing tea for emotionally overwrought cats.
Then Theo walks through her door.
He’s gorgeous. He smells of cinnamon. And he looks at Augustine like she isn’t ordinary at all. As though she’s exactly who he’s been looking for.
He makes her laugh. He makes her heart race.
There’s just one problem.
Theo is dead. And he needs Augustine’s help to find out why.
The cards might hold the answer. If Augustine can figure out how to read them.
Every clue brings her closer to the truth . . . and closer to Theo.
But falling in love with a ghost is impossible.
Then again, so is a Pepperday witch with no magic.
What if Augustine has been wrong about both?
