Welcome to Lavender Hollow… your next small town romance obsession! Grace fled London with a broken engagement and a wedding dress she still hasn't paid for. Max returned home with secrets of his own, and a painful past he’d much rather leave behind. But neither expected to find magic hiding in a cup of matcha. Because in the sleepy village of Lavender Hollow, something unusual is brewing… As Matcha Made in Heaven’s newest employee, Grace soon realises she has an extraordinary gift when customers start crying over their lattes and spilling secrets they never meant to share. In the warmth of the cosy teashop, will Grace and Max discover that the best recipe for love might be one brewed together? For fans of cozy fantasy romance, The Magical Matcha Teashop serves up the perfect blend of small-town charm, found family, spicy romance and just a sprinkle of magic.

Perfect for fans of The White Lotus, Knives Out and anyone who's ever wanted to strangle someone over Christmas lunch. All Olivia wanted was one last miserable Christmas with her husband's awful family before moving to Australia. She didn't expect a murder. Now the snow has cut them off and she's stuck in a stately country house, with her increasingly deranged relatives and the rising suspicion that someone is picking them off one by one. As the bodies pile up and the festive façade starts to crack, Olivia must survive the season, or, at the very least, get through lunch without anyone else choking on a sprout. Sharp, smart and deliciously twisted, this is Christmas with all the trimmings: cold cuts, warm lies and at least one suspicious pudding.
