A beautiful but daunting modern day fairytale set in the enchanted seaside village of Kennebunkport, Maine. In 2016, 24-year-old Meghan Murphy returns home to coastal Kennebunkport, Maine to live with her father Jack, after a terrible break-up. In her father's attic, Meghan finds a faded photo and then a letter Jack wrote, but never sent to Lizzy Bennett of Alexandria, Virginia. Over time, she learns that Lizzy and Jack were once in love, and their story intrigues her enough to uncover a devastating family secret and a number of mystical signs from the universe. In 1990, Lizzy Bennett first meets Jack Murphy while teaching at an elite prep school in Virginia. The single mother and quiet art teacher become best friends, fall in love quickly, and begin to plan their future until it is all stripped away when Jack decides to leave suddenly to raise a child he didn't know he had, and they painfully agree to part ways and never speak again. However, the universe has a different plan for Jack and Lizzy as they experience both real and magical encounters that bind them together for a lifetime. For lovers of delicious fiction meant to be devoured quickly. For those who believe in everyday magic. For those who need a loving escape from reality.

Missing Witches
Author: Risa Dickens
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1623175739
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
A guide to invocations, rituals, and histories at the intersection of magic and feminism, as informed by history's witches--and the sociopolitical culture that gave rise to them. When you start looking for witches, you find them everywhere. As seekers and practitioners reclaim and restore magic to its rightful place among powerful forces for social, personal, and political transformation, more people than ever are claiming the identity of "Witch." But our knowledge of witchcraft and magic has been marred by erasure, sensationalism, and sterilization, the true stories of history's witches left untold. Through meditations, stories, and practices, authors Risa Dickens and Amy Torok offer an intersectional, contemporary lens for uncovering and reconnecting with feminist witch history. Sharing traditions from all over the world--from Harlem to Haiti, Oaxaca to Mesopotamia--Missing Witches introduces readers to figures like Monica Sjoo, HP Blavatsky, Maria Sabina, and Enheduanna, shedding light on their work and the cultural and sociopolitical contexts that shaped it. Structured around the 8 sabbats of the Wheel of the Year, each chapter includes illustrations by Amy Torok, as well as invocations, rituals, and offerings that incorporate the authors' own wisdom, histories, and journeys of trauma, loss, and empowerment. Missing Witches offers an inside look at the vital stories of women who have practiced--and lived--magic.

But when she reaches out to the man in the profile, her reawakened hope quickly darkens into suspicion and then terror as an unspeakable conspiracy comes to light, in which monsters prey upon the most vulnerable. As Kat's hope for a second chance with Jeff grows more and more elusive, she is consumed by an investigation that challenges her feelings about everyone she ever loved - her former fiancé, her mother, and even her father, whose cruel murder so long ago has never been fully explained.
