<b>Return to the cosy and heart-warming world of <i>The Spellshop </i>in <i>The Enchanted Greenhouse </i>by <i>S</i>arah Beth Durst<i>, </i>a world brimming with singing flowers, honey cakes and honeyed love. </b><br/><br/>Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium.<br/><br/>This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. She's starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes and freshly baked honey cakes - at least until she's ready to sail home.<br/><br/>But Terlu can't return home and doesn't want to - the greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failing - causing the death of everything within them - Terlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again.<br/><br/>This time, though, she isn't alone. Assisted by the gardener and a sentient rose, Terlu must unravel the secrets of a long-dead sorcerer if she wants to save the island - and have a fresh chance at happiness and love.<br/><br/><b>Funny, kind and forgiving, <i>The Enchanted Greenhouse </i>by <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author Sarah Beth Durst is a story about giving second chances - to others and to yourself.<br/><br/>Praise for <i>The Spellshop</i>:</b><br/><br/>'A warm, peaceful delight of a novel' - Katherine Arden, author of <i>The Bear and the Nightingale</i><br/><br/>'As comforting as homemade jam on a fresh baked muffin!' - Rebecca Thorne, author of <i>Can't Spell Treason Without Tea</i><br/><br/>'Utterly delightful' - <i>Publishers Weekly</i>

Even if it means losing her forever.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, Wren is struggling to find her place in the world - both as an advanced student of alchemy at the ancient academy of Drevenor, and as one of the heirs to a lost kingdom. With the midrealms once again facing destruction, Wren must decide: Loyalty or liberation? Legacy or love?<br/><br/>As new political players emerge, Wren discovers that her gift for alchemy is more powerful than she ever imagined - and that it could tear the kingdoms apart.<br/><br/>Will she and Torj find their way back to each other, or will the ancient magic that binds them become their undoing?<br/><br/><b>Perfect for romantasy fans, <i>Thorns & Fire</i>, Helen Scheuerer's spellbinding sequel to <i>Iron & Embers</i>, delivers heart-wrenching choices, a found family to root for and a love that defies the odds.<br/><br/>Tropes include . . .</b><ul><li>Bodyguard romance</li><li>Enemies-to-lovers</li><li>Academia</li><li>Forced Proximity</li><li>Touch her and die</li><li>Found Family</li></ul><b>Readers love <i>Thorns & Fire . . .</i></b><br/><br/>'A captivating romantasy with a slow-burn which will keep you hooked until the end!'<br/><br/>'The chemistry between these two is electric and there were numerous points when I was giggling and kicking my feet.'<br/><br/>'The yearning in this one is absolute perfection.'
