A simple wish at a local festival should have been harmless, but for one sunshine-filled witch, a magical mishap turns her life upside down. After accidentally binding her fate to Rune, a brooding and intensely grumpy werewolf, she finds herself trapped in a hilarious role reversal. Now, she is tasked with protecting Ferndale Falls from fae mischief, while the rugged shifter is busy crafting artisanal soaps. Forced into an unwanted partnership, the two must collaborate to undo the spell before their lives become permanently tangled.
This cozy paranormal romance perfectly captures the magic of autumn, blending humor with a slow-burn intensity that will leave readers swooning. As the grumpy-sunshine dynamic sparks, the tension between them shifts from frustration to undeniable heat. With a meddling talking goat familiar and a heartwarming found-family community, the stakes are high, especially when a secret wish for true love threatens to complicate their forced proximity.
If you are craving a story that feels like a warm, cinnamon-scented hug with just the right amount of steam, this shifter romance is your perfect match. It is an enchanting escape into a world where magic is real, love is unexpected, and every page is filled with charm.

I really liked Rune! I was wanting to see how the werewolf adapted to human form, especially after meeting him in the other series and in the first book of ferndale when he’s hired to watch Hannah. This was a super fluffy and cute rom com and the plot was focused on the town fall festival events and the main couple interacting. Krista is really good about world building and details for that.
