Synopsis

He's a fox spirit who answers to no one. She's an innkeeper running on stubbornness and her mother's recipes. The building between them has plans for them both. Set two centuries before the Amazon bestselling The Inn at Thistledown Hollow , this is the story of how the Lavender Fox Inn found its first guardian — and how its guardian found home. Kip broke into the wrong garden. Now Rosemary's offering him a job, her shortbread is doing something suspicious to his heart, and the inn keeps unlatching doors he didn't ask to walk through. Ten weeks. That's the deal. Help with the spring season, then leave freely. The problem with freedom is that sometimes the cage you're running from was never locked in the first place. A cozy, gaslamp fantasy of found family, hearth magic, and one very opinionated building. For fans of Legends & Lattes , T. Kingfisher, and warm drinks on cold mornings.
