Others: MixedRowan Midwinter has sworn off magic, and for good reason. A spell gone wrong back in high school left her with nothing but missing memories and regret, so she's not exactly thrilled when she's guilted into returning to her quaint mountain hometown for the first time in years. But it's already Yule and much-needed snow still hasn't fallen, so Rowan reckons she can put up with her family, friends, and former coven if it means saving the town's beloved winter festival from the megacorporation threatening to buy it out. But Rowan's plans to save the festival and make it through the holiday magic-free go awry when Gavin McCreery, prodigal son of the festival's landlord, insists on helping, and their unwanted chemistry keeps setting off holiday lights… literally. As the quest to keep the festival alive grows increasingly complicated, Rowan realises she must reconnect with what she tried to leave behind - her family, coven, and even her memories - to let go of her fear of magic and let her heart lead the way.
