Keeper & Kindred

A Cozy Slice-of-Life Fantasy

De: Toni Binns

Narrado por: Bailey Carr

Welcome to the Magical Emporium of Wares, a bookshop that appears only to those who need to find it.

The winter solstice is coming, and with it, a reckoning.

Sable thought being Shopkeeper meant serving coffee, shelving books, and managing a talking cat's attitude. She's made peace with the magic, even embraced her role as guardian to Indigo, the world's most curious baby bookdragon. But as the solstice draws near, a magical teacher arrives at the shop's door—someone from the Cat's past who might hold the key to his freedom.

The Fates begin whispering to Sable through golden auras. Old bargains, made long before her time, surface with dangerous demands. And somewhere in the chaos of rearranging shelves, interrogating a cryptic teacher, and managing interdimensional customers, Sable has to figure out how to tell her mother she won't be home for the holidays.

The secrets she's uncovered can't be ignored. And the Cat—mysterious, maddening, and more vulnerable than he'd ever admit—might be the key to everything, if only Sable can get him to trust her.

Coffee can only solve so many problems. But friendship, courage, and one very determined Shopkeeper might just be enough.

Nice and cozy part two boogaloo

It was nice watching Sable grow and I can’t wait to see where and she and the shop go from here.
