The Crescent Moon Tearoom
NATIONAL BESTSELLER
Ever since the untimely death of their parents, Anne, Beatrix, and Violet Quigley have made a business of threading together the stories that rest in the swirls of ginger, cloves, and cardamon of their customers’ cups. Their days at the teashop are filled with talk of butterflies and good fortune intertwined with the sound of cinnamon shortbread being snapped by laced fingers.
That is, until the Council of Witches comes calling with news that the city Diviner has lost her powers, and the sisters suddenly find themselves pulled in different directions. With dwindling time to rewrite their future and help three other witches challenge their own destinies, the Quigleys set out to bargain with Fate.
Perfect for fans of Practical Magic and Legends and Lattes, this book is sure to offer readers a warm and magical escape.
The Witching Moon Manor
The Crescent Moon is thriving after a much-needed expansion, with the ladies who step through its doors continuing to seek comfort in the glimpses of their futures found in the swirls at the bottom of their teacups. Anne is leading the city’s witches as Chicago’s Diviner, Beatrix is swept away on a book tour across the country, and Violet has found her place with her feet swinging through the air above the circus crowds. That is, until the Quigley sisters find themselves stumbling on their chosen paths, and they are drawn back home in search of refuge in each other’s company.
As Anne struggles to balance her growing responsibilities, Beatrix fears she has lost her gift for storytelling, and Violet is shaken after an accident at the circus, the future the sisters had drawn for themselves feels murkier than ever. And, when the threads of fate begin to unravel, Anne must lean on her sisters and team up with a mysterious—and oddly infuriating—necromancer to save the city from an uncertain destiny and help old friends find a happy end.
With all three Quigleys back in the warm comfort of the Crescent Moon, they set out to bargain with Fate once more.
But will the sisters find the courage to embrace who they have become while returning to what they left behind, or will the future unfold in a way that even a Quigley couldn’t have predicted?

Fairy Tales of Appalachia
“Magic meets academia in the wonderful new collection… While reading, it’s easy to picture the familiar gestures that go along with the telling. This is a characteristic that makes the atmosphere of these stories truly magical in their realism because the text directly relates to the spoken word. This language transports the reader to another place; one where stories are told as the sun is going down and children are gathered around, desperate to know what happens next.”
– Kate Murphy, Southern Review of Books
Fairy Tales of Appalachia is a collection of oral stories that I gathered from archives across the region and transcribed to the page. The book is centered around strong female heroines and illustrates how storytelling practices in the Appalachia fit within the larger fairy tale canon.
