The rumours should have been enough to send her running, but when the opportunity to study magic under the Lady Elliane presents itself, Korinne can’t say no. Even if people do think the lady sorceress has terrifying fangs, fearsome claws, and a tendency to eat hearts.
She’d planned to focus upon her studies, but life at the sorceress’s castle isn’t what she’d expected. Though she hides herself away, Elliane doesn’t live alone. There’s Arycelle, a spirited girl from beyond the valley, and Wick, a demon who seems more interested in performances and pastries than any sort of eldritch pact. Along with living shadows, poetic statues, and an opinionated stove, Korinne isn’t sure what to make of the strange world she’s stumbled into.
But when Elliane, Arycelle, and Wick learn of her feelings for Ninette—a sweet baker and her dearest friend—they decide to take responsibility for ensuring she gets a happily ever after, and Korinne finds she has much more than magic on her mind.
