A magical journey of second chances, hidden mysteries, and the unexpected enchantment of a small village—where love, loss, and the fae collide in the most surprising ways.

Elenna Kane gave her heart to Jamie, his farm, his needy rescue animals, and his rambling, impractical house. But after his death, she's left struggling to hold onto a life that feels increasingly impossible.

Just when she’s ready to walk away, the village of Mullarkey Mills wraps her in its quirky embrace. As the seasons change, an old plow horse teaches her to hold onto joy. A wind phone becomes her bridge to Jamie’s memory even as she cautiously explores the possibility of new love. And the whispering woods begin to reveal their hidden truths, drawing Elenna into a shocking mystery that will open her eyes to the dark splendor of the fae living right under her nose.

Black Annis Year is a new cozy fantasy from the author of the Valkyrie Bestiary. Grab it now for a tale that will leave you believing in second chances, love that transcends time, and the wonder that’s always just beyond the trees.
