You live in a small town.
You don't believe in love - or in magic.
You make up a boyfriend just to get people off your back...
and then, one quiet autumn afternoon in a bookstore,
you meet the very boy you invented.
Agatha Carroway has always preferred to stay out of sight -
cozy rituals, quiet mornings,
her favorite little bookshop,
and a complete absence of romance.
A fake boyfriend was supposed to be a harmless white lie,
a polite way to stop her family and neighbors
from asking questions she never wanted to answer.
But when a stranger walks into the shop
looking exactly like the perfect boy she once described -
the same smile, the same eyes,
the same inexplicable warmth -
Agatha's carefully ordered world fractures.
And when strange things begin happening around her,
she can no longer ignore the truth she's denied her whole life:
magic exists...
and it's waking up inside her.
And with that magic comes everything
she's been hiding from herself.
Now Agatha must figure out who this boy really is,
why his appearance is tied to the changes stirring within her,
and why feelings she buried long ago
are suddenly returning.
All of it unfolds as autumn settles over Seven Oaks -
golden leaves,
quiet mysteries,
and the soft kind of magic that alters everything.
A cozy fall romance about impossible encounters,
awakening magic,
and the moment love finds you -
even when you don't believe in it.
