FOUR CHARMING SPELLS

A kitchen witch may have even more powers than she thought.

Mia Malone runs Mia’s Morsels, a combination cooking school, dinner delivery, catering, and event planning establishment that keeps her and her nonwitchy friend Christina Adams busy and away from the doings of the local coven in Magic Springs, Idaho. Mia is catering a wake for the coven when she meets Mahogany Medford, whose mother recently and suspiciously died looking much older than her true age. Mia, who’s had prior experience solving crimes, agrees to check into the odd death for Mahogany, who’s getting no help from the police or the coven. It’s obvious that the coven is involved in the death but far from obvious if the guilty party is singular or plural. Mia and Christina live in a haunted school where some ghosts are causing problems that Mia hopes her powerful Grans can solve. The friends have both been dating witchy brothers ever since Mia broke her engagement to Christina’s brother, Isaac. Business is good, and Mia is looking to hire additional help after she’s asked to plan a wedding for a couple who want to get married at the school, where unfriendly ghosts could cause problems. Her new hire, Hailey, is an excellent worker, but there’s something a bit off about her—still another problem for Mia to solve along with what to do about the possible loss of her most important catering venue.

A meager mystery is bolstered by the witchy crew’s adventures in love and murder.
