Old Flames and Other Magic
Lee Nichols
Getting back together with an ex is a bad idea. Especially when there could be a werewolf involved… Readers love Old Flames and Other Magic: “Immediately I adored Gabe and Ava!… a perfect read for any time of the year! The writing and the setting makes you feel like you are right there on the Isle too.” Thepolishedbibliophile “Filled with magic, humour and joy. I simply loved Gabe’s magical cat and wish I had one of my own!… Truly wonderful… such a great read and perfect as we are moving into the autumn season. A great one to read whilst curled up under the blanket with a cup of hot chocolate.” All.the.books.she.read “Wonderful book… If you are a fan of lower stakes PNR with a lot of heart, this one is for you! A perfect cosy read for this time of year!” Queen_goblin “I loved book #2 just as much as book #1 and I could not put this down!” NetGalley reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This was such a fun easy read. Loved returning back to the island and getting to explore a normals perspective of being on the island. Loved it!” Addictedtobooks1990, ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A perfectly charming… Laugh-out-loud chaos!… Second-chance romance crackles with chemistry… delicious… With swoon-worthy romance, a sprinkle of magic, and plenty of humour, this is a delightful escape… I loved the blend of romance and mystery!” _clairereviews_, ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Charming, full of warmth, humour, and magic… simply delightful. I had such a wonderful time reading this book that I already want to return to Beane… Cosy fantasy at its very best!” Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Amazing!!!… I loved getting to see more of [Gabe]. Same goes for Ava; she was so wonderful and absolutely feisty and just amazing… heartwarming!!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Only weeks after moving to Beane Isle for her dream job at the island’s nature reserve, Ava is already struggling to resist falling back into the arms of her college sweetheart, Gabe.
Years ago, Gabe broke her heart when he left without an explanation. Ava always suspected he was hiding something… Unfortunately, he’s somehow even more annoyingly attractive than she remembers—all sun-kissed skin, athletic muscles, and a smile that makes sensible decisions feel wildly overrated.
She’s also trying to ignore the villagers’ whispers about a werewolf in the woods… but then the reserve is vandalized. The only clues left behind are giant claw marks, strange tracks, and mysterious tufts of fur. Suddenly, the rumors don’t seem so ridiculous.
Gabe insists it’s all a prank, but every time Ava asks about the island’s secrets, he dodges the question.
Someone clearly wants Ava off Beane Isle. Because the only other explanation—that werewolves and magic are real—is impossible… right?
Once again, Ava is forced to choose between trusting Gabe and protecting her heart. Last time, his secrets tore them apart. Now, if nobody will tell her the truth, she’ll just have to uncover it herself…
With laugh-out-loud humor, swoon-worthy romance, and a good dose of magical chaos, the Fae Isle series is perfect for fans of paranormal romantic comedies like The Ex Hex and Rewitched.
“The perfect cozy read!… This story is full of magical chaos, charming creatures, and humor that will keep you laughing late into the night!” Areaderofruin
