When Ethan Eaton comes home for the Christmas holiday to find his parents have been killed by vampires, his life takes a drastic turn. Leaving behind his old life, he opens a café in a village located in the Scottish Highlands, which rumours say is frequently visited by supernatural beings. His plan is simple: learn more about magical beings and find out why his parents died. There is no room for distractions, and there is especially no room for his growing feelings towards the fiery and whimsical village girl Airlia, who happens to also be chasing magic. ----- ONC 2025 Round 2 Winner & Shortlister! ----- The Novellas of the Highlands: - Oak's Tea Room - The Oblivious Fool - The Second Draft - A Wish Come True - To be named
