"An enchanting tale full of magical moments." —Library Journal
A woman escapes her abusive husband and finds shelter in an enchanted orchard in this spellbinding novel of magic, resilience, and self-discovery from the author of Wildwood Whispers.
Here be witches and wayward girls…
In a town nestled in the Appalachian Mountains, Rachel Smith has found a new life tending a lush apple orchard. She’s safe within its grove. If her dreams are haunted by memories of her violent husband, that pain is soothed by fresh mountain air and apples that taste as sweet as honey.
But Rachel wasn’t meant to live in the shadows. The orchard drew her to Morgan’s Gap to fulfill a purpose, and a tight-knit community of wisewomen who honor the old mountain traditions are ready to teach her. A world of magic awaits Rachel, one filled with new friendships and new love.
Yet Rachel’s past is creeping in. A preacher with a familiar face has stormed into town, and his dangerous sermons may damn Rachel—and the people she’s come to love—to the flames.

      In 1960s Virginia, Rachel flees her abusive husband, preacher Ezekial Gray, when she learns she's pregnant. Drawn to an apple orchard in a small Appalachian town, she finds refuge there in the cottage home of wisewoman Mary May. Hoping to make sure her husband never finds their daughter, Rachel gives her to the local midwife to raise. As Rachel slowly begins to heal and discover her own power, however, she is faced with new challenges when Ezekial comes to town for a religious revival and threatens the place where she has found home. Readers will relish another foray into the magical Wildwood, this time a historical visit, and find some familiar characters from Wildwood Whispers, although this novel also works as a stand-alone. VERDICT Full of women wielding the magic of the land, often through skills like beekeeping, sewing, or singing, Reece's latest is an enchanting tale full of magical moments that also confronts the harm that hate and fear can inflict.--Melissa DeWild
