Darkness has never tasted so sweet.
Bronwen Elwell knows how to craft magic in the form of spun sugar and delicate cake. She knows the carnival circuit and every town up the coast and back. She knows how to make her sister smile and when to direct patrons to darker attractions. She knows she swore off love ages ago and hasn’t regretted the decision a day of her life. What she doesn’t know, is how she went to bed an elderly confectioner and awoke a young woman in her prime.
When Colger & Sons plant their tents and wagons in an abandoned sheep farm on the outskirts of the tiny seaside village of Feyport and a man known simply as Darkness turns up to buy a box of her renowned cherry lime bonbons, memories come streaming back. Unfortunately, those memories aren't all sweetness and light. Despite her vow to never fall in love, she feels a tug toward the dangerous man who wears gloom and shadows like a second skin. Torn between memories of things best left buried and the mystery of the carnival she calls home, Bronwen soon finds love and deceit may go hand in hand.
A Simple Tale of Sugar and Shadows is a cozy celtic folklore inspired fantasy romance that returns to the extraordinary world of Feyport. Overflowing with unforgettable characters, unique friendships, and fey creatures both lovely and dark, each book may be read as a standalone, however readers may find spoilers for earlier books in the series.
