Colleen Vanderlinden

You can’t run from your past. No matter how far you run, how much you’ve tried to change… the past has a way of catching up with you. Moira Chase is ready for a new start. After the death of her beloved grandmother, she takes over the family bakery in the small, picturesque town of Pine Hill, Michigan. As the latest in a long line of witches, her roots in the town run deep, and aided by her skill with kitchen witchery as well as the constant presence of the spirits of her foremothers, Moira is more than ready to leave her past, and her secrets, behind. But an innocent-looking purchase ends up adding more than just quirkiness to her shop, haunted by a woman desperate to keep a powerful artifact hidden from a being who poses a threat to everyone in Pine Hill. And Moira is forced to face the fact that, try as she might to live a quiet, peaceful life, her past and present are colliding in dangerous ways. She has a choice to make: keep her secrets and watch those she’s beginning to care for fall to an almost indestructible evil, or embrace everything about herself she’s been determined to keep locked away. Ace of Wands is the first book in a new urban fantasy series by Colleen Vanderlinden, full of romance, witchiness, quirky small town antics, and plenty of twists and turns along the way.
