Inc.…Revolution is in the air. The king’s court sorcerer is being eyed with suspicion.

    Murder. Cupcakes.

Meet Stella Storm. Stella lives an ordinary life. She runs a popular small-town bakery called Witchy Delights. She has a quirky dog and a moody cat. And she loves nothing more than a gossip with her closest friends.

Oh, there's one thing you should know about Stella.

Stella is a witch.

When a local girl's murder rocks the town, Stella finally sees an opportunity to put her magical skills to the test, solving the case once and for all.

But what should be a simple whodunnit fast turns into a mystery way more mind-bending than Stella could ever have imagined, as she tries to adapt to her rusty magical skills while trying to keep the handsome local detective off her case, too.



Throw in a mysterious bad boy, an eccentric bunch of residents and a cat with attitude problems, and it soon becomes clear that Stella has a lot on her plate. And that's not including all the delicious donuts.

With time running out, will Stella catch the killer before it's too late?



Packed with biting wit, glorious magic, yummy sweet treats and even talking animals, Curses & Cupcakes is the fun first book in the Stella Storm Cozy Witch Mystery series from Amy Casey. So curl up with a cake and a pet by your side. Once you enter Witchy Delights, you're never going to want to leave. Just make sure you don't criticise Stella's coffee-making skills...
