The Impossible Garden of Clara Thorne

Love grows in the most impossible of places in Summer N. England’s sweet and spicy debut cozy romantasy for fans of The Spellshop and Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea.

All gardener Clara Thorne wants is to live “happily ever after” in her beloved town of Moss, magically growing herbs and vegetables and trying to write her book. But Fate has other plans when The Goddess unexpectedly bestows her with an impossible quest. Clara has one month to travel to the cursed and abandoned town of Dwindle and grow them a garden. If she fails, she will be banished.

Only Clara’s magic doesn’t work outside of Moss, a fact she has kept hidden for years. Worse, the Goddess has assigned the absurdly sexy, annoyingly cheerful Hesper Altanfall to keep her safe. All leather and crossbows, Hesper is as determined to protect Clara as she is full of secrets-but Clara would rather eat thorns than accept help. Nevertheless, the two can’t help but grow closer as they make their way across enchanted woods, share one too many tavern beds, and work together to rebuild Dwindle one garden bed at a time.

Clara, however, refuses to give in to their blossoming romance. She’s had one too many losses, and Hesper might the one to break her beyond repair. But if Clara can find the key to opening her heart, she may just unearth the life and love she’s always believed to be impossible.

Author Biography

Summer England is indeed her real name. When she’s not blabbering on stage and writing off stage, you can find her doing quite literally 17,000 different ADHD-motivated projects around the house, watercolouring, playing the decidedly evil pirate to her kid’s morally gray pirate, reading whilst walking, and not sitting still while watching When Harry Met Sally for the 6th time in one day.

Heart Magic is her debut novel.
