"The Woodsmoke Women's Book of Spells captivated me from the very first page... I absolutely treasured it from beginning to end."—Cecelia Ahern, New York Times bestselling author

"I immediately fell under the spell of this artfully crafted world that I swore I was in a rundown cottage in the middle of the mountains... A perfect read for witch season."—Kate Robb, author of This Spells Love

In a magical new direction for One Christmas Morning author Rachel Greenlaw, an evocative and mysterious story about lost love and the magic of coming home, for listeners of Adrienne Young and Breanne Randall.

There is an old tale woven through the mountain town of Woodsmoke about a stranger who appears as the first snow falls in winter, who will disappear without a trace as the frost thaws in spring, leaving a broken heart behind.

Carrie Morgan ran from Woodsmoke ten years ago, and the decision has haunted her ever since. Spending a decade painting and drifting around Europe, she tries to forget her family’s legacy and the friends she left behind. But the Morgan women have always been able to harness the power of the mountains surrounding the town, and their spells—and curses—are sewn into the soil. The mountains, they say, never forget.

Sure enough, when Carrie’s grandmother dies and leaves behind her dilapidated cottage, she returns to renovate—certain she will only be there for one winter. She meets Matthieu as the temperature dips, a newcomer who offers to help refurbish the cottage. Before long, and despite warnings from her great-aunt Cora of the old stories, Carrie finds herself falling for the charming stranger. But when the frost thaws in spring, Matthieu goes missing.

Carrie is convinced he’s real, and he’s in danger. As she fights her way across the mountains to find him, she must confront all the reasons why she left Woodsmoke and decide whether the place she’s spent the last decade running from is the home she’s been searching for.

Rachel Greenlaw, the beloved author of One Christmas Morning, returns with another beautifully crafted, emotionally charged, and romantic tale about lost love and the magic of coming home.

Good book, narrator had a cold!

Good book, narrator had a cold - or at least that is what it sounded like.

Lovely Book

Enjoyed the book, I thought it was a magical story. The only downside was that the performer seemed to have gotten sick the last part of the book and sounded very congested etc. Wish she could have been able to get better before finishing. She still did an amazing job and I would totally listen to her perform something again when not sick.

OUTSTANDING!

oh, and one more point... the summary says this is set in Cornwall and with the narrators accent you can totally believe it but what i thought is, with a different reader, the story could easily have been set in the US Appalachian Mountains and been equally amazing.
