About the book
Mika Moon is a lonely witch who hides her magic to protect herself and her community from discovery. Because she publishes harmless "pretend" magic videos online, she is recruited to help three young, orphaned witches at Nowhere House. These children struggle to control their spontaneous elemental powers and risk revealing their secret to the mundane world. To stabilize them, Mika must navigate the guarded Jamie, the house’s protective librarian, and outmaneuver a looming legal inspection that threatens to dismantle their found family and expose their supernatural identities.
This novel serves readers who enjoy low-stakes fantasy and domestic settings. It appeals to those looking for a story about finding a sense of belonging outside of biological family structures. Readers walk away with a depiction of how vulnerable individuals can create safety through mutual trust and cooperation. It provides a blueprint for overcoming isolation by choosing to participate in a community, even when past experiences suggest that staying hidden is the only way to remain secure.
