Livvy and the Enchanted Woodland

Formats: E-Book, Paperback

Ages: 18+

“Magic happens all the time. You just have to look for it.” That’s what Livvy Sloan’s Grandma used to say. But as the Great Depression settles over rural Georgia in 1930, magic is hard to come by. Losing the family farm looms larger day by day.

So Livvy escapes to her secret woodland most afternoons to create forest sculptures. That’s where she meets a mysterious Englishman on horseback who admires her art and makes her heart race. But there’s something amiss about Gordon Collins.

Back home she’s pursued by Coy Whitaker. With good looks and money to spare, he’s eager to help Livvy and her family in their time of need. She gives him a chance, pushing doubts aside.

As her family is hammered by one disaster after another, Livvy finds herself hoping against hope and trying to find some of that magic Grandma talked about.

Historical fantasy. Magical realism. Clean romance.
