A Witch's Guide to Love and Poison

‘Brimful of charm’ Heather Fawcett, New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of the Emily Wilde series

‘A tale as warm as a cup of spiced chai on a chilly evening’ Sarah Mughal Rana, author of Hope Ablaze

Bisma knows three things to be true: the Enchanted Forest will always be her home, she would go to the ends of the Earth to protect her sisters, and Xander Chapman is the most irritating guy she’s ever met.

Since finding a home in the Enchanted Forest, Bisma – a garden witch with a penchant for potions – has always been protective of other runaways. So, if a drop of one of her poisons finds its way into the porridge of those who have hurt them . . . that’s none of her business.

But Xander, the charmingly handsome son of the apothecary, sees things differently and is fast becoming known for creating cures – much to Bisma’s annoyance.

When her sisters are poisoned themselves, Bisma will need to put her feelings aside and enlist Xander’s help to find out who is responsible and save the only family she has, before it’s too late.

Perfect for fans of:

- grumpy x sunshine romance

- cottagecore with a Pakistani twist

- found family and sisterhood

- potions and … poison!?
