Welcome to Broomstick Bay! Here the electricity is glitchy, the townsfolk are witchy, and Ruby has a catastrophic secret that is clawfully twitchy. Non-practicing witch Ruby Crosswell doesn't plan on staying in her hometown of Broomstick Bay for long. She's only back for her reunion and to see her high school crush. The event starts with a dusting of romance.

The Crosswells are celebrating Grandy's birthday (we don't discuss her age unless we are willing to be cursed with warts in unspeakable places) with a big party at Coven House, and I'm in charge of the cake. My name is Ruby Crosswell, and I'm a newly re-practicing witch. Not only that, but I can turn into a cat. It’s one heck of a trick, but don’t ask me how I do it. I’m still working on the logistics. When a vampire interrupts the celebration, the sweet and powdered festivities turn bloodsucking.

Lemon tarts, a magical creatures preserve, and CAT-astrophic murder. Ruby Crosswell is a witch and more. She can shift into a black-and-white cat. Not all the time. And not always when she wants. But she's working on that. After finishing the renovations for Broomstick Manor, Ruby is still trying to figure out what to do with the place. It's way too big for one person to live in alone. Thankfully, she's distracted. Her parents have her making upside-down tarts for Lemon Tillwater. She's hosting the grand opening of her magical creatures preserve.
