Synopsis
A bakery going cold. A village running out of warmth. A secret Miriam Holloway was never meant to inherit. When a traveling miller brings strange flour to Thornhaven, Miriam knows at once that something is wrong. The flour sits too warm, rises too fast, and carries a hunger that does not belong in her bakery. Then the cold spreads. Starter fails. Bread collapses. The blue roses pale. And Pell’s repaired door begins to hum with the memory of a wheat field no one can reach. As Cael Ashford, Miriam, and the village trace the trouble back through old Holloway records, they uncover a forgotten connection to Amberfield, a grain village whose failing magic has begun pulling warmth from Thornhaven’s living hearth. To save both villages, Miriam must claim a hidden family inheritance, Cael must learn that not every broken thing is his to fix alone, and Thornhaven must decide how much help can be given without being emptied. The Enchanted Hearth is a cozy fantasy about village magic, found family, old secrets, warm bread, and the boundaries that make care last.
