Maya Rae thought she was inheriting a coffee shop. Turns out, it's a front for a paranormal detective agency... and her first client is a missing ghoul.

Thirty-six-year-old financial consultant Maya Rae left her witchy destiny and Moonglow Crossing years ago, desperate to escape the small-town rumors and her destiny as a fated mate. But when her eccentric mother dies, Maya inherits The Black Cauldron café, a place that serves more than just lattes—it serves justice to the town's population of fae, vampires, and ghosts.

Before she can even figure out the espresso machine, a frantic fae seamstress demands she locate her missing ghoul associate. This wasn't in the paperwork.

Now, Maya is an amateur sleuth witch, forced to dust off a destiny she tried to outrun. The only thing standing in her way? Sheriff Ben Carter, her impossibly handsome, utterly infuriating werewolf ex-boyfriend. Ben is determined to keep the supernatural case contained, but the explosive chemistry between them, and the ancient magic that binds their families, forces them to work together.

With the help of a perpetually grumpy, talking cat familiar, Bart, and a demon barista, Maya must find the ghoul and discover the secret her mother died protecting—before the mysterious force responsible for Gabriel the ghost’s disappearance snatches her, too.
