Festive Novella ❤️

There was no greater joy than seeing the light in a child’s eye.

Once, a humble toymaker crafted wonders so enchanting they lit up the faces of every child in London. But when a band of mischievous trolls ransacks Mister Edmund Smithe’s beloved shoppe, his dreams—and his livelihood—crumble overnight. With Christmastide just days away, failure isn’t an option. If he can’t fulfill his orders, he’ll lose more than his reputation—he’ll lose his freedom.

Faetilda had one simple task: watch over the unruly trolls. But when they slip past her and wreak havoc in the human realm, she has no choice but to follow them—crossing the forbidden boundary between worlds. What she doesn’t expect is Edmund, a mortal whose very presence shifts something deep inside her.

As Christmas nears, Edmund and Faetilda must defy fate, outwit chaos, and dare to follow their hearts. But will love be enough to bridge the chasm between their worlds, or is their Christmastide wish doomed to remain just that—a wish?

A heartwarming Regency-era fantasy romance filled with fae magic, mischievous trolls, toys that come to life, and a toymaker determined save the day. Welcome to your next enchanting holiday read!
