In this cozy, witchy romcom, a young woman works to turn a run-down small-town video store into the bookshop of her dreams, only to discover a powerful magic that’s been lying dormant—and a forbidden love she can’t resist.
Dutiful and hard-working, Rhea Wolfe lives a simple, if mundane, life with her pet parrot in small-town Alabama. Sure, she may not love her desk job working for an insurance agency. And her on-again-off-again relationship with the local mechanic may not have the fiery passion she’s read about in her favorite books. Still, things are stable, which is more than she can say about the two hopelessly immature younger sisters who rely on her.
But when Rhea’s estranged grandmother dies, leaving her everything—including a magical heritage Rhea never knew she carried—she finds herself in Arcadia Falls, the quaint mountain town her mother made her swear to avoid at all costs. While the defunct video store she’s also inherited needs a serious upgrade, Rhea’s lucky that resident handyman Hunter Blakely is more than happy to help—and more than easy on the eyes. If only he wasn’t the grandson of her grandmother’s sworn enemy in witchcraft.
Yet as Rhea makes plans for the bookstore of her dreams, she learns that her grandmother made a terrible choice, one that could ruin her own chance at happiness. As she gets ever closer to solving the mystery of what exactly is happening, each clue points to Arcadia Falls’s magic hanging in the balance. To keep her new home safe, Rhea must step into her enchanted birthright and harness her newfound powers . . . before it’s too late.
Isla Jewell is the author of the Arcadia Falls series. As Delilah S. Dawson, she is the New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Phasma, as well as It Will Only Hurt for a Moment, The Violence, Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge: Black Spire, Mine, the Hit series, the Blud series, the creator-owned comics Ladycastle, Sparrowhawk, and Star Pig. With Kevin Hearne, she co-writes the Tales of Pell. She lives in Georgia with her family.

“A sticky, southern-fried comfort dish combining nostalgia, magical romance, and the struggle of the capable sibling. As someone who grew up in a place very much like Arcadia Falls, every rich detail of Rhea’s life made sense to me—cookbook feuds, marauding bands of wild turkeys, and towns where everybody knows your business. The spells will delight you. The kisses will make your knees go weak. The ghost will make you want to open your own haunted small business. Maybe not that last one, but you should indulge in this cozy, whimsical read!”—Molly Harper, USA Today bestselling author of Hex Around and Find Out
“Deliciously delightful! I adored this adorable book! You’ll laugh, you’ll swoon, and you’ll want to stay in Arcadia Falls!”—Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop
“Books & Bewitchment is an utterly charming story for booklovers and anyone who has ever dreamed of a fresh start. It’s a cozy love letter to small towns, found family, and the power of a good book. Sharply funny and wonderfully kind, my only hope is that it’s the first in a series.”—Lish McBride, award-winning author of A Little Too Familiar
“Books & Bewitchment had me bewitched from the very first page! Isla Jewell has crafted a warm hug of a love story that perfectly balances magic, romance, and family secrets. Arcadia Falls is my new small-town obsession with the kind of carefully crafted characters I want to be friends within real life. A book you will want to curl up with and finish in one sitting!”—Falon Ballard, USA Today bestselling author of Change of Heart
“Absolutely cozy and full of whimsy, this romance enchants. I wish I could live in Arcadia Falls!”—Katie Holt, author of Not in My Book
