Potions, Pirates & Pie: A Cozy Romantic Fantasy (Tales from the Tavern)

When you've finally found somewhere to belong, why does part of you still long for adventure? Cali has everything she’s ever wanted: a crackling hearth at The Tusk & Tail tavern, friends who've become family, and pastries worthy of a quest. But while her crewmates have found their purpose in the charming village of Wayside, the pantheri archer can't quite shake the restlessness that comes after spending a lifetime adventuring. Then a mysterious lady pirate sails into town with an escaped prisoner to find, a tangled past, and more intrigue than a sleepy village has any right to host. Suddenly, the scent of fresh-baked pie and warm chai can't compete with the pull of adventure—or the pull of the beautiful pirate. But the warmth of the found family waiting at The Tusk & Tail has a way of following Cali, no matter how far the tide tries to carry her. And perhaps the purpose she’s been searching for was never far from reach at all. Potions, Pirates & Pie is a heartwarming, low-stakes, slow-simmer, romantic cozy fantasy brimming with gentle intrigue, mouthwatering baked goods, enchanted creatures, and the quiet magic of finally knowing your place in the world.
