Snowbound

A Last Route Novel

The post always gets through. Even when it shouldn’t.

Wren Ashwick has found her rhythm on the Last Route.
Three months of walking the realm’s most remote postal circuit have turned a failed mage into a capable courier—one delivery at a time.

Then winter arrives with a desperate plea:
a child in the highlands is dying, and only Wren can carry the medicine that might save her.

Everyone tells her to wait out the storm.
The blizzard is worsening, the roads are vanishing beneath snow, and no sensible person would risk the route in weather like this.

Wren has never been good at sensible.

When her stubborn determination nearly kills her in the Greymist Hills, rescue comes from the last person she expected—and the small silver-quilled hedgehog who’s been watching her all along.

Now Wren is snowed-in in a warm cottage in Mosshaven, forced to accept help she never wanted to need… and share space with a hedge witch who sees straight through every wall she’s built.

Some storms change everything. Some people make you want to stay.

Snowbound is Book 2 in The Last Route—a cozy fantasy romance of found family, winter comfort, and slow-burn sapphic love.

Perfect for fans of:
• Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree
• The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune
