Saving the world is such a bother when it makes you late for tea.
By day, book-loving wizard Lily Singer manages library archives. By night? She sleeps, naturally. In between, she studies magic and tries to keep her witch friend Sebastian from dragging her into trouble. Unfortunately, trouble seems to come looking for her on a regular basis.
When Sebastian asks for help to break a magical curse, Lily knows things are not as they seem. Their quest to unravel the truth and free a tormented soul uncovers hints about Lily’s mysterious past—a past hidden from her by those she trusts most. As if that wasn’t trouble enough, Sebastian gets them stuck in a time loop and Lily must track down the culprit. But they soon realize they are not the only ones interested in this strange phenomenon, and it becomes a race to the source of the magical disturbance, with all their lives hanging in the balance.
Love, Lies, and Hocus Pocus: Beginnings is the first installment of the Lily Singer Adventures urban fantasy series. Full of unexpected twists and snarky humor, this story has been known to cause: loud snorts of laughter, inexplicable craving for tea, and loss of work productivity. If you enjoy magic-filled adventures like Harry Potter and Supernatural, then you'll love Lydia Sherrer's delightful new series.
